<h1>Hare-Brained Rusty Rabbit</h1>
<p><strong>Core identity:</strong> Opportunistic and tactical, but a bit inconsistent.</p>

<div class="box">
  <strong>Personality sketch</strong><br>
  Hare-Brained can spot immediate tactical chances and pounce on them, yet does not always follow through with discipline. When the ideas line up it looks clever; when they do not, it looks distractible and impulsive.
</div>

<div class="box">
  <strong>What this page is for</strong><br>
  Use this as a plain-language companion while tweaking <code>hare_brained.js</code>.
</div>

<h2>Working notes</h2>
<ul><li>Hare-Brained is a good rabbit to push toward more tiles than are strictly wise.</li><li>He improved when given stronger tile preference, but still can cash in too early.</li><li>He should feel less efficient than top rabbits, but more exciting than a timid one.</li></ul>

<h2>Main tuning knobs</h2>
<table><tr><th>Tile appetite</th><td>High</td></tr><tr><th>Token appetite</th><td>Delayed a bit</td></tr><tr><th>Good experiments</th><td>More local expansion off his own branches</td></tr><tr><th>Danger sign</th><td>If he becomes as efficient as Warren, he stops feeling hare-brained</td></tr></table>

<h2>Starter recipe</h2>
<div class="box good">Use stronger tile filtering early and medium token penalties. Reward connected growth and future socket creation.</div>

<h2>Questions to ask after a tournament</h2>
<ol>
  <li>Did this rabbit actually feel like its name?</li>
  <li>Did it win by the method I intended, or by accident?</li>
  <li>Did it create board growth, punish board growth, or cash in on someone else’s board?</li>
  <li>Did this rabbit become too similar to another one?</li>
</ol>

<h2>Safe edit checklist</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Change only one main idea at a time.</li>
  <li>Keep a backup before changing heavy filters.</li>
  <li>Prefer score nudges before hard move filters.</li>
  <li>Run a small tournament instead of trusting one match.</li>
</ul>
