Clever! But I wonder if you will run into file locking issues: both the executor and uploader processes will want to write to results1v1.txt (or resultsmelee.txt etc). The executor is trying to add results and the uploader is trying to delete them... Do you know if priority battles will still work? (it might) --Darkcanuck 15:07, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Good point. I'm not sure. This can result in duplicate result uploaded or losing result, right? Actually, this article is meant to use with newer, not-yet-supported roborumble client, as current version is not that fast to require seperate uploader, but newer version (1.7.1.1) is. I can tell you that on my machine, each (nanobots) battle fought in less than one second (for first few iterations) so uploader probably can't upload them fast enough due sleep(1); :-) I'll see if I can patch it more clever. » Nat | Talk » 00:52, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
