Oooops... I seem to have forgotten one small thing.  Rule 3.4 states that immobility warnings will be disabled for the 30 second fights, which I didn't do for round 1.
 
Hopefully it doesn't make too big of a difference.  Regardless, immobility warnings will be disabled from now on.
 
As far as round 2 goes, I have it all filmed, just need to make the video and upload it.  Unfortunately I'll be gone over the weekend so I'll probably get that done Tuesday at the earliest.  Now to address some questions.
 
I thought RPM would do better as well. I was hoping it'd use a kind of Melty Brain movement, though. It'd definitely help against a rammer like Speedy DX.

You should have specified that when you entered... if you want, I'll change the AI to melty brain for round 3.  But there will be no changing it back if you decide you don't like it.
 
How did you AIed my bot click ?

Took Popup.py and replaced the button with an analog control, so the spinners activate when a popup's weapons would normally fire.
 
How come Scraps bot (and a couple others) have a hard time with control?  Is this a case of the arena floor being smoother than the floors we might have tested our bots on beforehand?  Just curious.

Scrap's bot has control issues because the side plows lift the wheels partially off the ground.  I believe G.K.'s bot's issues have something to do with having bursted drive with a very small turn radius, but that's just a guess.  Stratocaster isn't 100% invertible so it drives a little badly when flipped.  The others I have no idea.

I'm willing to accept that. =) Change my AI to Melty Brain for round 3 onwards, please.

Round 2 is uploading (trying to beat G.K. to the punch).
 
Edit:  It's up!
 
Some rather bloody fights this round... I daresay a lot of these bots don't have long to live.
 
Also, I set up a rudimentary webpage for Ironbot here.  Basically the only thing on there right now is some stats on the bots (SPOILER ALERT: includes results from round 2) but that should still be good to have.
