Hello everyone,

Thanks for featuring this.

I'm the author of the article - feel free to ask any questions about it, or the BW AI scene in general.

I don't have a question. I just want to say your blog posts are really good! They are informative, interesting and really funny at the same time. Thanks for writing them :-)

Hi, thanks for writing this! I have a couple of question about the scene: where does the broodwar AI community usually communicates (forums, IRC, mailing lists.. .), and do they interact with other related communities (other games, other AI projects, academic research, etc)? I'm thinking common frameworks, sharing of libraries, strategies, knowledge, etc

The main discussion forum is Discord: https://discord.gg/HpnNmsG

Announcements are usually on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bwapi

Another popular StarCraft-related blog is: http://satirist.org/ai/starcraft/blog/

There's a 24/7 stream of AI games at: https://twitch.tv/sscait (perfect background noise for coding)

And I have to mention the research done by my team on StarCraft at: https://torchcraft.github.io/TorchCraftAI/

Very useful, thank you! So your team is the CherryPi team from Facebook AI Research if I understand well?
