Day 9 - Alex's Journal

With the bot finally working, we spent most of the day trying to tweak it so that it works just right. Since the bot works by sensing the notes at the top of the screen and waiting until they reach the bottom to push the buttons, we had difficulty trying to find the correct amount of time to make the bot wait after sensing the notes. Luckily, the game allows a 50 millisecond window in which to press the button. This allowed us to find a time that was at least in the range of what worked.
