A long time ago I decided to collect together the various things I found out while getting started in the madness that is micromouse. The idea was that, it is pretty hard to find these things out for yourself, working alone, even with the power of the mighty Google to hand. So, to save some trouble and give newcomers a head start, I put it all together into some web pages. These were originally published on another site which will probably be gone by the time you get to read this.
