What's so special about it?
It's my first robot which implements a small, but effective (against small bots) Oscillator Movement. Most lightweight pattern matchers have a very difficult time hitting it. You can get the code from my code snippets page
How competitive is it?
Fairly - it's #63 in the microrumble and #285 in the general rumble which is top 20% in microrumble and top 40% in general rumble.
Where can I get it?
Just click the download link to the right.
Version Information
1.0 - pattern matching, random movement, infinity lock
1.1 - changed to oscillator - MUCH stronger movement, strengthened wall avoidance

Strategy

How does it move?
Oscillator Movement
How does it fire?
Pattern Matching
How does it dodge bullets?
Oscillator Movement
How does the melee strategy differ from One-on-one strategy?
It doesn't. I have not ever tried it with melee, but my guess is it would perform poorly.
What does it save between rounds and matches?
A few static variables.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?
It just came to me :P
Can I use your code?
Absolutely. It's licensed under RWLPCL.
What's next for your robot?
Maybe I'll be able to shrink it some and make it a nanobot. If not, I'll add some more advanced features to use up some more of my code allowance :P
Does it have any White Whales?
Thorn, Waveshark, Smoke, Raiku
What other robot(s) is it based on?
I used a slightly altered version of Robar's BlackWidow gun.
