Although RCXWars could be cool if someone figured out how to cannibalize

steal their 'scalp', which leaves them active, but with a software flag that
says it's been scalped. When there is only one remaining unscalped bot, the
game is over and you count how many scalps each has taken( and kept from
being stolen). Whoever has the most trophies wins.

You seem to imply that even after a bot was scalped, it could still be
actively hunting.  That wouldn't work, because the first thing every bot
would do would be to scalp itself, to get the point, and keep every
other bot from getting that point.
