What about deciding whether or not they can based on their building skills?

How about you have everyone submit 1 bot, and depending on the quality of that, you decide on an individual-by-individual basis how many bots they can submit?

That was my second option, but I didn't want to cut worthy members such as yourself out

Then the bot isn't accepted

But it has an AI, and you've stated that they can submit more than one bot if they have an AI for the others

Your just going to have to put up with it or not allow multiple entries,

You cant restrict people from entering based on skill..
