Time = time in seconds

blocks will end up with a a "time" of 45 seconds.
if the other guy finishes second at 50 seconds, with a perfect system
then his score is 50.
So if lowest score wins then the imperfect but fast bot wins????
comments??? do i need to re-think the penalty times???

Block wrong: -10 or disqualified Block mispositioned: -5 I'd observe that in (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
