Re: boring matches

I agree, this do not change the dynamics of the game and it is a form to stimulate the competitors to submit controllers of robots that have been programed instead of simply putting the example judoka0.java shipped with webots demo version.

  All right, I understand your concerns. So, maybe we will have to come 
  back to the first idea which is making a robot loose a match if it 
  doesn't move over the first few seconds of the match. Let's say it has 
  to cover at least 20 cm within the first 10 seconds. Sounds fair ?
