Shuffle strategy files #70

Open jun-bun opened 3 years ago

jun-bun commented 3 years ago

Shuffles order of submission files. Fixes issue with itertools generating predictable combination orders. In some cases, this could lead to unintended advantage/sequence exploitation of the file order.

Really? Every strategy plays against every other one so I don't see how it could affect anything

Exploiting the file order would count as trying to cheat the system since that's information you're not supposed to know, and Cary would presumably disqualify such a strategy if submitted.
