Conclusion

We would have preferred to have faired better in the tournament, but we realize that we had flaws in our design and bugs in our implementation. Despite these flaws and bugs, we still wielded a formidable player in tournaments with fewer copies ($<$5 copies). Moreover, we believe that if we had modified our corner matching algorithm, we could have also improved our results. Finally, our ``back away'' procedure could have improved our performance if we had done more than just translate away from the overlapping cookies.

Overall, the tournament produced results that we had expected. Our bugs were enough to significantly diminish our scores.
