@ cyclist:  I'm pretty sure that this is regarding the current contest. 

You might like to evaluate a number of different strategies (including the 'do nothing' strategy) and choose the one which gives the lowest score.

The only real limit on how many different strategies you might try is that the program must conclude in under 3 minutes.
