I'm a CS student who loves programming and robocoding. I've known robowiki since 2012, but robowiki didn't know me before 2017, when [[Beaming]] suggested that I put my bots in the rumble. Not long after, I put a [[ScalarBot|bot]] in top 10 in [[ScalarBot/Version History|10 days]]. I took a sleep and put it top 3 with another 10 days.

I'm a second-year CS student living in China, who discovered robocode since late 2012. Before 2016, when I was hooked in competitive programming, I can only write JavaScript fluently, so I created a JavaScript platform to test my robocode bots (written in JavaScript certainly). In 2017, I eventually came back to robowiki, and soon fell in love with Java (and robocoding!).

I'm a CS student who loves programming and robocoding. I've known robowiki since 2012, but robowiki didn't know me before 2017, when Beaming suggested that I put my bots in the rumble. Not long after, I put a bot in top 10 in 10 days. I took a sleep and put it top 3 with another 10 days. But getting from top 1000 to top 3 has never been as hard as being top 2, I supposed. Now, I'm paying the technical debt before I go further.
