I'm a student, studying Mechanical Engineering at University of Cape Town, South Africa. I currently have a range of (mostly competitive) bots:

1v1:

• Nano:
  • Machete - Uses Multimode - Stop And Go which switches to Random Movement - and nanonized Wall Smoothing, with a Random Lead gun. Not as strong as I hoped.
  • Olek - Uses the Musashi Trick coupled with a nano Pattern Matcher. No Wall Smoothing (not enough Code Size. Also not as strong as I had hoped.

• Micro:
  • Toorkild - A Multiple Choice Pattern Matcher inspired by the competition, Kev's Needle. Number 1 in Micro.
  • Waylander - A Pattern Matcher - currently No. 2 or 3 in the Micro Rumble. It was my first attempt at a competitive bot.
  • Connavar - A Guess Factor bot, using Waylander's movement, and a gun based (slightly) off of Falcon.

• Mini:
  • Cunobelin - A Wavesurfer based loosely off of BasicSurfer

• Mega:
  • DrussGT - A Wave Surfer using Visit Count Stats for the movement, and Dynamic Clustering for the gun. Currently No. 1 overall.
  • Stormrider (retired) - Wave Surfer based off of DrussGT, but using Dynamic Clustering for the movement. It shares DrussGT's gun. While in the rumble it was No. 5 overall.

Melee:

• Mini:
  • Snaga - A currently unreleased bot using a segmented Play It Forward gun I built originally for Twin Duel, using Minimum Risk Movement

Teams:

• Twin Duel:
  • NightAndDay - Two bots, Night and Day, working together. They use a segmented GF gun with a careful choice of attributes to enable hitting non-perpendicular movement. They use Minimum Risk Movement. The only difference between them is the color.
