OK, that you all for your hard work! Eight submissions were received. Here is the list of those whose submissions I know I received. If your name is not on the...
So, I am going to designate one machine to work on the competition until 9 AM Monday California time. At roughly 3 million games a day, that should be more...
Alberta and Brown now are distinguished by a statistically significant margin. This is the last update until Monday, when I will publish (anticlimactically)...
3 million more games have completed. The results below represent 31,000 samples (in each sample, a different generalized lemonade stand game is played). ...
The results are at http://martin.zinkevich.org/lemonade/results.html The final rankings are: First Rutgers 50.397+/-0.022 Second Harvard 48.995+/-0.020 Third...
I was quite satisfied with the competition this year, and while further analysis is needed, I think that it has answered some questions and asked some...
The candidates are: Michael Bowling (University of Alberta) Michael Wunder (Rutgers University) Tom Goff (Brown University) Archie Chapman (University of...
If you are already going to TADA, please note the following event on Sunday: http://issel.ee.auth.gr/tada2011/program.html 16:00 - 16:30 TAC 2011 agents o...
I like the idea of adding life-long learning into the Lemonade Game, or at least making it an option available to teams who want to make a more complex agent....
Greetings, It seems that the community is interested in the question of modeling other agents, but that the current LSG setup limits the effectiveness of...
There was not many votes for the competition. Specifically, one team voted, one team sent an abstention, and one team voted late (after the deadline). These...
Everyone is WELCOME to respond. Committee members are OBLIGATED to respond. So, while everything is up for discussion, three key items for discussion are N, K,...
Some points on balancing games: One way to make individual games more balanced would be to ensure that everyone played the same number of games, and if...
I agree that lifetimes should be limited to some, K, number of games and then the players should be reset. This ensures that any impact that an agent's...
Overall I like Marty's proposal. It meets my usual criteria for good competition changes: (1) there is a plan for how the results will have statistically...
I recommend having a poll on the details of the competition. Below is a response to Michael B's comments. I will send some preliminary suggestions as to what...
The following is subject to approval by the rest of the committee. I think that the structure recommended here is appropriate. I have included options which I...
Let us take alternative questions or different answers by Wednesday. I would also accept it if people feel that these answers need to be answered over time:...
First of all, well done Marty on making these proposals open for a vote, and thank-you to Michael B., Michael W. and Tom for driving the discussion so far....
I have no problem with people expressing indifference beyond a certain number of options. I think that this could improve the outcome. I think that these are...
I'm not sure if you're asking for this, but I approve of the voting format. If others want the votes to be done in a particular order, that's fine by me as...
So far, there were three voters: Michael B., Archie C., and myself. To help this out a bit, I am extending voting on Question #2 until Friday. Note that it has...
Doesn't the number of needed rounds depend on the number of players? Or at least it could. When you say 900 rounds is enough. If there were 10000 entries,...
Polling closes TONIGHT, so get your votes in. ... So, my answer to this question informs the rest. I am not assuming that people will try to learn individual...
OK, so here is the voting. All early voters have submitted votes for later questions as well (or expressed indifference). 1. What should N be? 1. B 100 rounds ...
