I've only gotten 4 bots so far, I'm starting to worry no one is going to bother building.
I've pretty much finished my entry, I'm just away from my main computer currently and can't send it. People usually start building pretty close to the deadline anyway, wouldn't worry about it.

I give up. I cannot build an effective clamp, it is simply an impossible task for me. Whoever is still left in the reserves is free to take my place.
implying you can build anything effective in the first place

Here's the problem: clamps aren't effective.  Just build something terrible and send it in.

Please.

Just build something terrible. Okay. I got something, I guess. I'll send it when I get the chance.

fairly certain only gods among us can build effective clamps... weaponless robots don't have much fun outside IRL

There are no gods.

How many more we got to enter? They only have, like, three days.

Welp.

We've hit the deadline, and there are still 7 people who haven't entered their bots.  Plus, I wasn't really thinking when I made the deadline, so it's the middle of final exams for me.  That's why I'm announcing a 1-week extension to the deadline.  New deadline is 11:59 PM on May 7.  I figured I'd wait as long as possible to announce this, to encourage panic-building, and see how many entries I could get.

To those of you who already have your bots in: thank you!  I'll be sending PMs out to everyone who has yet to submit a robot shortly.

In light of the recently-released "no rule of 7" thing, I'd like to ask that you do not use it while building for Rival Rumble.

After the habitual procrastination, I have built something and am going to send it asap.

Although I notice my rival hasn't send anything. It will be very dishonorabru if he bails out >:O
