Joust with Kinect control of arm flapping. ;D

What we need is a API for hooking up arbitrary programs to send input so we can have competitions of the best AI to play a given game like they did with:
http://julian.togelius.com/mariocompetition2009/ (Mario styled platformer with progressively difficult layout)
http://eis.ucsc.edu/StarCraftAICompetition
Of course the difficulty then becomes how does the AI understand whats coming OUT of mame. That would have to be solved with some sort of machine vision, unless you tied into the debugger and mapped various memory locations/values to what they meant in-game.. that would almost be an extension of the cheating system, just not things you'd want to force a static value into.
(+_+):
Arm flapping. That's just preposturous. :lol

My friend, if you care about accuracy, authenticity, about bloat, slowdowns and unnecessary hacks, as you do, then perhaps you should consider more carefully whether you are kissing the wrong buttocks there. -- And, why in the world you chose to ignore me when we are on the same side, it's two of us against everybody else, don't you see?
Please read this thread and note Derrick's is actually alone by himself in supporting those changes, he lost every argument we had, and even though his friends would like to support him, no one did, which is only natural since it takes just few minutes to actually test and confirm what I am talking about:

There is obvious bug that makes Derrick's code produce jittery movement, beside all the redundancy and unnecessary hacks, bloat and slowdowns, so again, if you want things to be done proper way I bid you reconsider coming back to fight on the same side again, by which I only mean to be completely neutral, objective and honest, just not silent and conditioned by mass-hypnotic ass kissing. I know you are brave, my friend, and now the time has come, so let's rock'n roll - in the name of truth, veracity and such!
Derrick,
- are you still not aware of this bug that makes movement in your code is jittery, or you just don't care?
yotsuya:
Are the three days up already? Awwwwwwww....
yotsuya:
Oh, and BTW, tested Derrick's code with my spinner, and didn't notice anything abnormal regarding speed, slowdowns, or jitter. It was certainly a lot easy with the spinner than with the joystick, that's for sure.
