May 31st 2007
During the May challenge, the number of played matches was good enough in both the leagues.
Three main events happened.
The first is a good news: A new strong jrobot appeared among the cadets. Its name is Spike and achieved a triple victory with a very good 82%-82%-87%. We'll see if its valor is going to be confirmed among in the Veterans' League.
The other news may be good or bad according to the point of view: Tango failed its usual triple victory, in fact it won only in Double category, while StrangeMatter got both Single and Team victories. Sometimes it happens and testifies that, in some situations, StrangeMatter and Tango are very close, but usually Tango prevails.
The final news is a bad one, at least for me: Platoon failed to survive. Platoon was the oldest of my jrobots, the one that you know because included in the samples, so I'm not so happy to see it removed. Anyway the time has gone for these linear jrobots that run in a straight line at constant speed.
The results of the Veterans' League are:
Survivors: GulleFjun, RoboOlm, KillerBees (for their results in Team), Hellfire, Bohan (for their results in Double), Earthworm (for its result in Single), Mouth (for its result in Double and Team), Headhunter (for its result in Single and Double), Stately (for its result in Single and Team), Doom, TTL (for their results in Single, Double and Team), IonStorm (4-3-3), Starkle (3-4-3), Tango (2-1-2), StrangeMatter (1-2-1).
