Student Rumble
Very cool! How do you address the issue of browsing other people's bots online, or do you? And what level are the students at?

I saw a cool way of checking for plagiarism (or at least checking for possible instances before human verification): add both source files to their own individual lzma-compressed (eg using 7zip) files. Check the sizes. Then add them both to the same file to see how much mutual information they hold. Of course, this is easily beaten by adding junk to your source code, but it is useful for comparing texts etc =) It is also easily scriptable.
Nice idea!
The course resources and assignments are on an online learning system called Moodle, which has a source code plagiarism plugin that I'm interested to install and try out.
For the non Advanced bots, I'm just going to read their code to check it out. I have 13 students, so it won't be too time intensive.
