Today the Software Challenge finals took place in Kiel and I’m proud to announce that our team won the challenge!
The task was to create an AI for a simple game. Initially there were 38 teams who comped against each other in the first phase of the Software Challenge. The best eight of them were present at the finals today.
Each encounter was made up of six games.
The quarter-final was very thrilling, but we managed to win four out of the six games. In the semi-final we did a superior 6:0 and the finale then was 4:2 again.
During the play one member of each of the two teams was on the stage, interviewed by the annotator. Our team let me go for that, because I’m most familiar with the strategy of our AI. So I stood in front of all the spectators, being totally nervous and watching our client win. That was so cool!
We got that big cup, 1000 € for our school and some more money for us.
