Downloading Replays for Masters Project

I'm researching making an AI player for yugioh for my master's project and duelingbook replays would be a very useful source of data to train the AI on. However, I noticed that replays are protected against bots by recaptcha - are replays not to be used this way, or could I be allowed to bypass the recaptcha to get data for my research?

Why not make it so you don't need to solve a captcha to view a replay as long as the replay is at least a month old? The only reason this captcha was implemented in the first place was to keep people from cheating in tournaments by using bots to sift through opponents' most recent replays to see what decks they were playing. After a month, it should no longer matter if a bot can access a certain replay, as the tournament that replay was recorded in should be long over by then.

Dude, Duelingbook only wants real users. AI and CPU Players let YGOpro and Konami decide, thank you.

they never claimed, that they wanted that AI to play on duelingbook. the possibilities of having an AI playing meta decks at near perfect levels would be insanely helpful for competitive players for practicing. if i had the choice id play in a duel the AI mode all the time instead of rated

@judges/DBstaff, maybe you can have a collaboration with OP? they provide the AI after finishing their thesis and you get to implement it on your site? sound like a win/win to me

Dude, you didn't get the concept: I hate AI on any medium, both in art and in Yugioh.

To clarify, I'm not making a bot to play on dueling book, there just doesn't exist any other extensive collection of easy to use replay data. The AI will be made to work with EDOPro's existing AI support.

I love when they make a great gutting of some flawed argument and they just go bye. It's so funny for some reason.

Its not mature and fun of you to parrot with people when something is serious.

If you want to be taken seriously, write fluently, whatever language you use
