user files

Hi,

I am trying to get the "last updated" column of the hall of fame work 
properly and I found that several competitors have a controller which 
saves files with different names, i.e.:

RoboMarci: valtozasok.txt
Puzzelor: LastGame.txt
Smashy: DebugLog.txt
Gladiator: NN.dat, NNEq.dat, PopulationB.dat

As explained on the files management page, I would like to normalize 
this with only two file names:

log.txt is intended to log debug information that you can donwload from 
the file management page as log.zip.
memory.dat is intended to be used by your controller to save / load its 
current state, or whatever data (hence it is possible to implement 
learning over all the life of your robot). Load should occur at 
controllers' initialization and save should occur in the die method (at 
controller's termination).

So, please RoboMarci, Puzzelor, Smashy and Gladiator, use the log.txt 
and / or the memory.dat file name instead of the ones you currently use. 
Other file names won't be saved from a round to another.

This would allow me to have a "last updated" column which finally works 
for all the cases.

Cheers,

-Olivier
