[Cs4800] Counting tournament tonight at 10 pm

[James Antonius]

Yes, I agree with Matt. During the last tournament, my avatar got kicked
out and I only had a chance to play against some avatar. Maybe my avatar
could do well against some avatars, but not with the others. But I didn't
know whether this is the case because I got kicked out when I played
against some avatars..

In my case, my function sometimes got called perfectly, but sometimes it
didn't. When it didn't, then I got kicked out. And because I got kicked
out, I didn't know what happen next and I didn't have enough history to
find my mistake.

And also when I debugged my code in Eclipse, it worked fine so I think my
algorithm works. But I always got kicked out every time in the tournament.
I have been spending most of my time trying to find the bug here, but it's
been really hard for me because I only had a little history (because I got
kicked out every time).
