Background Information

What's special about it?

It's my first nanobot!

How competitive is it?

Currently ranked #9 in NanoRumble, #45 in MicroRumble, #95 in MiniRumble, and #317 in RoboRumble

Strategy

How does it move?

First, it uses stop and go. If it gets hit too much, it switches to random movement.

How does it fire?

It uses pattern matching!

How does it dodge bullets?

Stop and go dodges the simple targeters, random movement dodges the rest =)

How does the melee strategy differ from one-on-one strategy?

It doesn't have a melee strategy.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?

The first version looked like it wiggled and squirmed around the enemy. Unfortunately, I had to get rid of the squirming part to save codesize =(

Can I use your code?

Sure! It's in the .jar file SquirmyToad RWPCL.

What's next for your robot?

Top 5!

Does it have any White Whales?

Acero!!!

What other robot(s) is it based on?

It uses BlackWidow's Symbolic Pattern Matcher.

It's movement is based off of Charp.

And of course, a huge thank you to all the contributors on the RoboWiki for your awesome tutorials and open source robots!
