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, stronger movement algorithm strengthened wall avoidance
1.2 - strengthened movement even more, changed gun a wee bit ;), corrected small glitch
1.3 - small gun tweaking, better wall avoidance, stronger movement, narrow lock radar

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 RWLPCL.
What's next for your robot?
Add a few more advanced features, maybe switch to GuessFactor Targeting, integrate a flawless wall avoidance while keeping it micro size.
Does it have any White Whales?
Thorn, Waveshark, Smoke, Raiku, and Acero.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
I used a slightly altered version of Robar's BlackWidow gun.
