It could get waaay too confusing...
'bot A gets up, 'bot B gets up, 'bot B pushes 'bot A off but in the action
of pushing falls off himself, but 'bot A says he pulled 'bot B off...
At the end of 3 minutes if there are no stacked blocks, there was 0 points
awarded--we didn't care if a 'bot built the eiffel tower--if it wasn't
standing at the end of 3 minutes, it didn't count.
The competition is to stay on the top until the end, and keep other 'bots
from getting up.
This is King of the Castle--if the king falls off during his 'reign' he
don't get points.
If no 'bots are on the platform at the 3 minute mark--0 points each.
If one 'bot is up top at the end of 3 minutes, it wins--2 points.
If both 'bots are up top at the end of 3 minutes, well, then we either say
its a tie (1-1), for they both completed 1 part of the competition--getting
up top, but failed in the 2nd part of the competition--keeping everybody
else off or we could say that both 'bots lose--I like the tie score myself.
But to wrap it up, the score is only tallied at the 3 minute mark, not before.
At least, that's how I'd do it, in my humble opinion.

| I agree with Dave...Let's keep it simple. Will we determine the overall winner by total accumulated points, or, will it be based on the number of games won? Bruce (22 years ago, 3-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
