The rules of Guess My Robot:

Each player can "challenge" all others to guess the robot he / she has built, or "respond" by trying to guess how someone else's robot works.

To challenge:

  1. Create a robot that generates a sequence of numbers
    like "1,3,5,7,9.." - only smarter :-)
  2. Create a game page: go to Guess my Robot Template and click New Report from this template.
  3. Let your robot run and collect the sequence in a box.
  4. Add the box to your game page (if you don't know how to do that, try this tutorial)
  5. Add any hints or tips you think might be necessary to guess your robot.
  6. Publish your page.
  7. Add a comment to the Guess My Robot page, with a link to your page.

To respond

  1. Create a robot that generates the same sequence as the "challenge" you are responding to.
  2. Add it to a comment on the challenging game page .

When your challenge is responded to

If the robot that someone posted does the same thing as your original robot
say something nice, upload your original, and think of a tougher challenge.
If the responder has not worked out your robot
Add a few more numbers to the box, to show the point at which your robot gives a different result.
