Umm... is it just me, or does this BOTM have no criteria?

EDIT: Yay, anything goes... time to go full-throttle on this one!

...can someone teach me how to perform glitches?

If there's going to be too much competition, me and my mediocre bots won't stand a chance - is it really worth it? >.<

Well, an Anything Goes BOTM generally features things like TXT editing, reskinned stuff, BFE, or even completely new components. It's generally the builders most skilled in those fields that tend to do well in these BOTMs. Take a look at December 2008 and December 2010 to get an idea of what comes up.

If it says make a bot no matter what, does that mean we don't have to use RA2 to make a bot?

It's not strictly forbidden, you can collaborate with builders and submit a joint entry. You just can't submit a joint one and one of your own, that counts as multiple entries. You can sometimes get top level builders like JoeBlo and 123 teaming up to make something like Seige Tank a few months ago, you just need to find someone who's willing to work with you.

I want to do it on my own, but I'm just no good at bot building.
I think I'll try and learn as much about bot building as possible before creating an entry (plus it'll help me in the future too)

This would be fun if almost every active member enters. 20-40 entries? X3

I had to read the "Anything goes" part twice, to make sure I wasn't crazy.
