I was thinking of going "King of the Hill" Style. The Hill is P programs. Each program submitted fights all the programs on the Hill (and they fight each other). Single lowest score falls off the hill. You get points for
having a program that survives N challenges while staying on the hill.

A hundred sacrificial lambs don't help unless their base programming is good enough for the hill, so that's limiting. Though if you have a good
one, you could send in a set of trivial variations (maybe solution is
to discount multiple hill entries).

Perhaps a qualifier round would work, where every program fights each other program in a smaller joust than the round robin segment. Each player's program with the highest score (the program that makes it the farthest up the hill) proceeds into the round robin segment. The remaining programs are subject to immediate deresolution.
