We will also calculate many other variables such as if the bot's performance is increasing or decreasing, and if so by what rate. We will calculate the consistency (their standard deviation from their mean score) as well as many other variables. It is no doubt there is still a "human" element. You need some one who knows what their doing to sift through all this data and rankings to really determine what you need to do to win, this just makes it easier and more accurate.

Hope that cleared up some of your questions!

Thanks!

I am indeed interested in seeing what the program can do.
