What API do I use?

If you are not using python, your agent will use the text based API

If you are using python, you should use the python API. But you don't have to.

I've read that, but don't know where to start

1. Pick a language. Python is recommended for beginners.
2. Look at the sample agents. Here is the sample python agent
3. Copy sample and rewrite amazingly awesome quantum chess algorithm of supreme domination
4. Profit

That was too long; I didn't read it

Read the sample python agent instead.

Policy on Threading and Forking

Don't do it. It is not allowed. Use a single thread like a real man/woman/robot.

This API seems terrible and I want to use threads

Too bad. Write your own competition.
