+<h2> Competition Rules </h2>\r
+<p> The competition consists of a number of preliminary rounds, and a final round. See <a href="dates.txt">here</a> for the current schedule. </p>\r
+<p> Scores accumulate over the rounds. You do not have to enter an earlier round to compete in a later round (but will not receive a score for that round). </p>\r
+\r
+<p> Each round will be a round robin. Each AI competing will play each other AI (not itself) as both black and white. </p>\r
+<p> Points are awarded for each game as follows: </p>\r
+<ul>\r
+ <li> Win: 3 points </li>\r
+ <li> Loss: 1 point </li>\r
+ <li> Draw: 2 points </li>\r
+</ul>\r
+\r
+<p> <i>Yes</i>, this does effectively mean that you gain more points if there are more opponents. </p>\r
+\r
+<p> Scores in the final round will be weighted so that the finals are worth 50% and the combined sum of the preliminary round scores is the remaining 50%. </p>\r
+\r
+<p> The Sample AI's will score points as normal, but will not be considered when determining the winner (this is to stop me from giving the prize to myself). Don't worry, they aren't very smart anyway.</p>\r
