I then compiled the list and counted the number of duplicates. I want to make a full bot challenge against the biggest problems. Of course some robots are better/worse then others. For example, while GeomancyBS is a has more ticks against it in the problem bot list, the one thing that makes it a problem is its bullet catching, which BulletCatcher is a more pure implementation of (lacking the surfing fall back method, which is how it pushes so far higher into the ranks).
