I don't want to add more mechanisms. You can build your own mechanism by making your own password naming convention or bot naming convention. For instance you can use the underscore character to build separate families of bots and still keep your own branding.
We might at some point make a web page that groups bots by family so that it's publicly visible and easy to see which bots do not play each other. > PS: Will this new feature be committed into the subversion repository for CGOS?
