Actually they contacted me. I was doing my normal advertising of the event in
channel 250, and sshouts on the server, and they started asking questions. They
liked the idea of the event as all of them are normal computer players.

About 6 of us started to talk about why it would be terribly difficult for a
human to enter in that format. They mostly talked amongst themselves while I
watched, offered feedback here and there, and a productive dialogue ensued.

After about 90 minutes of talking, the suggestions were put forward, and I said
I would get back to them.

In about 60 minutes I should have a fairly big announcement :)
