which has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"></span>

the top 10 players in the user ranking will be awarded with Amazon vouchers. See [4] for the details about the prizes and the rules used to compute users' scores.<br>
