* These battles take 15-20 seconds each on my machine using DCResearch.  It may be well worth your time to plug in the tree.  Is this really the time to run 15 seasons of '''fast learning'''?? -- [[Simonton]]

** Yes... and the battles take 2:30 - 3:15 each with Horizon. =( Of course, part of the problem is that my bot loses a higher percentage of the rounds, meaning there is more idle time than with a better gun like DCResearch. -- [[AaronR]]

I'll have 50 seasons of the new 0000 ready later. Using the tree really is much, much faster. It seems like there is a bug somewhere, though, since just about every one of the new version's scores is lower than the older release's. -- [[AaronR]]
