256 Bot Tourney News Feed
« on: January 29, 2011, 10:46:49 AM »
Because no one reads sigs (as evidenced by my Question of the Week thingy getting canceled) or PT's, I'll be using this as a news feed for the tourney.



PLEASE DON'T COMMENT ON THE TOURNAMENT HERE, THAT'S WHAT MY FORUM IS FOR. THIS IS JUST A NEWS FEED SO YOU KNOW WHEN TO VISIT THE SITE TO SEE WHATEVER'S NEW.

On a first impulse I would say juggler, but I need to see the bots first for a better assessment.

EDIT: Nah, I don't feel like download 96 MB of splash.
