It is fairly easy to do yourself. Modify or copy and edit roborumble.sh to point to Gigarumble config, i.e. make something like

#!/bin/sh
pwd=`pwd`
cd "${0%/*}"
java -Xmx1024M  -Djava.awt.headless=true -cp libs/robocode.jar:libs/roborumble.jar:libs/codesize-1.1.jar roborumble.RoboRumbleAtHome ./roborumble/GigaRumble.txt
cd "${pwd}"

Create 'roborumble/GigaRumble.txt' with the following content and change the 'USER'

#===============================================================================
# GigaRumble..txt - Configuration file for GigaRumble (1v1 battles)
#===============================================================================

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Username. It's highly recommendable that you change this to use your name
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# USER      The username used when uploading the results to the RoboRumble
#           server. Hence, you should replace 'Put_Your_Name_Here' with your
#           name, which could be the initials you use for your robot(s).

USER=Put_Your_Name_Here

# Exclude filter used for excluding participants. Use with care!
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# EXCLUDE   A comma separated list of all the participants you want to exclude
#           from the competition. Excluded participants will not be downloaded
#           or take part in battles. This way you can exclude participants that
#           cannot be downloaded due to web servers that are down or hanging,
#           the repository is down, robots/teams that crashes for some reason or
#           cause other trouble. 
#
#           You can use the filename wildcards * and ? in the filter. Example:
#
#           EXCLUDE=xyz.*v1.?, *Nano*

# Properties to control the way battles are run 
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# RUNONLY   If left black or set to GENERAL, a new battle file is created where
#           robots from the participants file are paired at random. The number
#           of robot pairs will match number of battles defined the NUMBATTLES
#           property. 
#
#           If set to MINI, a new battle file is created similar to the one
#           for GENERAL, but it will only contains robots that are MiniBots,
#           which has a code size < 1500 bytes (calculated by the codesize tool).
#
#           If set to MICRO, a new battle file is created similar to the one
#           for GENERAL, but it will only contains robots that are MicroBots,
#           which has a code size < 750 bytes (calculated by the codesize tool).
#
#           If set to NANO, a new battle file is created similar to the one for
#           GENERAL, but it will only contains robots that are NanoBots, which
#           has a code size < 250 bytes (calculated by the codesize tool).
#
#           If set to SERVER (recommended), a new battle file is created which
#           will first of all contain priority battles for robots that that has
#           priority over other robots until they have fought a specific number
#           of battles specified by the BATTLESPERBOT property. The number of
#           battles fought by the individual robots are extracted from the
#           rating files, which are downloaded from the server if the DOWNLOAD
#           property is set to YES. When no more priority battles are left,
#           robots from the participants file are paired at random similar to
#           GENERAL.
#
# BATTLESPERBOT
#           The number of battles a robot has to fight before it will no longer
#           have priority over other robots in battles. Prioritizing a robot
#           makes its rating more reliable faster as its number of fought
#           battles increases faster than when it is not prioritized.

nanoGigaRumble ? Are you kidding?

I think giga rumble is very different from the general rumble. We should try to find the official one

Tomorrow I will check an older unused computer for the stuff, have been away from home for a few days, so no possibility to run the rumble. Plus I think that the file looks more like TeamRumble, no weightclass f.e.

This file is destroying minirumble. You should remove

MINIBOTS=minirumble
MICROBOTS=microrumble
NANOBOTS=nanorumble

for it to work.
