Hi, I'm a [[High School]] student from Washington, USA (now 17 years old). I've been robocoding for almost two years now.

'''Active Bots:'''
*[[WaveSerpent]] is my mega, level-expert robot. Ranked 4th in the general rumble.
*[[Logic]] was the first robot I programmed, but ended up pretty strong in melee. It's ranked 5th in the melee rumble.
*[[SeaSerpent]] uses [[WaveSerpent]]'s movement and an experimental [[PatternMatching]] gun. It shows some promise, especially in hitting surfers.
*[[Vyper]] is my [[MiniBot]], currently ranked 4th in the mini rumble and a member of [[The2000Club/Mini]].
*[[Thorn]] is my [[MicroBot]]. Currently #1 in its devision.
*[[Splinter]] is my [[NanoBot]]. It was the top nano until [[WeekendObsession]] came along, but is still ranked 2nd.
*[[GeminiTeam]] is my entrant to the [[TwinDuel]] competition. It was champion for a while, but has since been dethroned.
'''Retired Bots:'''
*[[Puzzle]] is my old [[One on One|one-on-one]] robot. It was ranked in the top 40, but is now retired.
*[[MaxRisk]] is a [[MicroBot]] and one of the best rammers around. Was ranked around 35th in the micro rumble, and king of the [[RambotChallenge2K6]].
