Notes
- "Major" constitutes the categories listed above: Program, Acting, Directing, and Writing. This grouping does not include the technical categories.
gollark: Interesting.
gollark: I thought of something like that, but you need to return to the actual game logic higher up the stack as you don't have the other participants' code.
gollark: Technically no, if you know all the other participants and their order.
gollark: I couldn't make it work properly, so I'm working on other things instead.
gollark: ```The "apiomemetics" strategy will be as follows:- if this is the first turn, fork process- if you are the parent process, wait for the child to terminate- if child, use a strategy and see how well it goes- at 100th turn (matches are AT LEAST this long), if child, send message to parent via shared memory and exit- repeat with different strategy- store best strategy against current opponent somewhere, use on all subsequent turns```
