I take it no one's submitted Baritone [0] yet? Or would that be against the spirit of the contest?

That would be against the letter of the challenge, not to mention the spirit. From the rules [1]:

> The submission must train a machine learning model without relying heavily on human domain knowledge. A manually specified policy may not be used as a component of this model. Likewise, the reward function may not be changed (shaped) based on manually engineered, hard-coded functions of the state. For example, though a learned hierarchical controller is permitted, meta-controllers may not choose between two policies based on a manually specified function of the state, such as whether the agent has a certain item in its inventory. Similarly, additional rewards for approaching tree-like objects are not permitted, but rewards for encountering novel states (“curiosity rewards”) are permitted.
