About bots starting when disaster happens.. we already thought and said that would happen before we implemented it (written on forum somewhere).
It's an issue, but I think it's not as bad as it seems. In reality they can only guarantee get the easy coins in their own quadrant. The rest is up for grabs if you have enough and can attack.
Open to ideas..
One solution was that you maybe spawn in random locations for the next X blocks after disaster -- it may make the easy coins harder to get (if you start on the opposide side of your normal spawn area for 100 blocks?).. not sure if a good idea - needs more thought.

Agree. Actually more than 90% coins on map are captured by human, not by bots. But the price still not rise even human dominate the map. I think the price has no relation to how many coins are captured by human compared to bots. And open bot library has released by dev team, every one can use it. But if you want a more powerful bot, you need to write many lines of algorithm, which is more hard work than playing this game by hand.
The price of HUC is related to difficulty of playing(more players leads to more competing and difficulty), application, and capital investment. Now the pruning of nameindexfull.dat has worked successfully, the pruning of block chain is on the way. If the pruning and wallet stuck of pending are solved(still not solved in 1.011g), there will be more players in this game.
