-<p> The competition will run in 2012. The exact dates have not been determined. I will consider whether it is worth waiting until freshers have a chance to make submissions March/April, or running the competition earlier in January/February. </p>

-<h2> Involvement </h2>
-<p> If you want to help set up the competition, email matches@ </p>
-<p> There isn't much left to do, but all help is appreciated. Maybe you can suggest something, and volunteer to implement it! </p>
-<p> The most useful thing you can do is actually write an AI, and test the manager program. Please report any bugs (in the manager program, not in your AI!) to matches@ (you can feel free to fix them, but won't be able to push unless you email matches). </p>

+<h2> Clarifications </h2>
+<ul>
+ <li> We are using the newer rules described <a href="http://www.edcollins.com/stratego/stratego-rules-later.htm"/>here</a>. </li>
+ <li> Scouts may move multiple spaces and attack in the same turn (in some versions they cannot). </li>
+ <li> Bombs remain in place until destroyed by a Miner (some versions incorporate "single-use" Bombs). </li>
+ <li> Victory is possible by either capturing the enemy Flag, or destroying all mobile enemy pieces.
+ AI programs do not have to "surrender" (as stated in the rules) if they have no mobile pieces. The manager program should end the game (if it does not, please report the bug)! </li>
+ <li> The newest versions of the physical board game reverse the numbers of the ranks (10 is the Marshal, 1 is the Spy). Our system uses the original numbering (1 is the Marshal, 9 is the Scout and s is the Spy). </li>
+
+ <li> You must always make a move. </li>
+ <li> <b>Remember to unbuffer stdin/stdout!</b> </li>
+</ul>
