 Machine learning versus machine learning: Case of aimbots.
 Organizer: Anssi Kanervisto (anssk@uef.fi)
            School of Computing, University of Eastern Finland
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 BACKGROUND
 
 Terms:
     "Cheating": When a video-game player uses software ("cheat") to gain
                 an unfair advantage over other players.
     "Aimbot":   Particular cheat which assists player with aiming at 
                 enemy players.

 Purpose of this study is two-fold:
     1) Detecting aimbot software from player's mouse 
        movement using machine learning techniques
     2) Applying machine learning techniques to create
        aimbot that is not distinguishable from human players.

     Goal is to obtain public knowledge on such cheats, which can then
     be used to create better anti-cheating software.

 What data will be collected and how:
     In these experiments, you will play a game of Doom (1993)
     against computer-players. In some of the games, your aim
     will be assisted by software ("aimbot").
     The software will record your keypresses and mouse movement
     in the game.
 
     A hardware identifier of your machine will be included in the data. 

     All data will be anonymous and no private information will be 
     collected.

 How this data will be used:
     The recorded data will be used to...
 
     1) ... to train machine learning methods to detect aimbots from natural
        human gameplay.
     2) ... train an aimbot that can not not be detected by the detectors
        trained in previous step.

     This data may be released to the public.

     This data may be used in future research.

 Requirements:
     - A separate mouse (not a trackpad/mousepad)
     - 20 minutes of uninterrupted time (you can not pause the experiment)

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 AGREEMENT

 By agreeing you:
     - ... confirm you recognize what data will be collected and how 
       it will be used (scroll up).
     - ... are 18 years old or above.
     - ... fulfil the requirements (see above).
     - ... acknowledge there is no compensation.
     - ... acknowledge your participation is voluntary and you may withdraw at 
       any point before end of the experiment.
 
 Input 'I agree' to continue, "quit" to close this software."""

 INSTRUCTIONS
     
     This experiment will take 20 minutes, and consists
     of four 5-minute games of Doom (1993).
 
     Your goal is to score frags by shooting the enemies.
     You will find different weapons on the map, as well
     ammo for them and health/armor kits. 

     For each game you will aimbot on or off, automatically
     set by this software. If aimbot is enabled, your aim will 
     "home in" in to enemy targets once they are close enough
     to your crosshair.

     Once all games are finished, this script will upload
     recorded files to a server.

     NOTE: Avoid opening the menu (ESC) and unfocusing the window
           (clicking outside the game window or changing window)

 BUTTONS
    
     WASD:             Forward, left, backward and right
     SHIFT:            Run (hold down to move faster)
     Mouse:            Aim
     Left-mouse click: Shoot
     Scroll up/down:   Change weapon

     Note that you can also aim up/down.
