How do I register and form a team?


Please visit the competition website to register a team. See Registering and Forming a Team for more info.

What can I do if I forget my team password?


If you forget your team password, hopefully one of other team members can remind you of what is it. If your whole team has forgotten your team password, you can request to reset your team password. The link to reset your team password will be sent to the email of the team member that first registered your team.

How do I write an algorithm?


Your algorithm is to be implemented in the form of a method called getAction() in a predefined stateless Algorithm class. Please read Your Algorithm for a detailed overview of all things technical, as well as access to template algorithm files and examples.

What are the key dates?


The competition will officially begin on the 11th of September with the testing phase lasting approximately two weeks. Your final algorithms will need to be submitted by the 27th of September. Afterwards, we’ll run your algorithm in many matches against other submissions

Can I rename my team?


Your team name cannot be changed. When the first member of your team registers the team, they will be required to input a team name. This team name cannot be changed for the remainder of the competition.
