Ludii Forum
Hi Remi,
We plan to support most of the games used in previous Computer Olympiads (here is a partial list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Olympiad) but probably not the more rules-complex ones like Mahjong and Bridge.
But any of the 250+ games implemented for Ludii could be an Olympiad event (https://ludii.games/library.php); all it takes is someone to act as the organiser for that event and to create the tournament. We are making this process as easy as possible, and automating most of the running of each event, so hopefully many people will run events for a range of games.
We already support the games you list except for Renju. You could create an event for each of those games yourself, though if your bot is going to win then it might be diplomatic to ask someone else to act as organiser
We were assuming that most play would involve manual move entry for this inaugural online event. But we could look at adding an automated alternative if that would be useful for you. You would then need to update your software to send and receive messages to/from a Ludii client running on your machine to communicate moves etc.
Regards,
Cameron
