Wasn't there a similar problem last year with a lot of people not bothering to vote for the 10th bot? Perhaps a rule should be added that requires botmasters to place that vote or be disqualified from the next years contest?

Wow, my bot ended up in 32nd place. That's actually a cooler number than 40, because it's 2^5.

Congratulations to all the top winners and Congratulations to all winners since everyone is a winner alone by having participated <0>

I did vote for one of the bots when it came to botmaster votes.

I thought about that but things happen. E-mails get lost, people get sick, people go on vacation, people lose interest.

As I said many people didn't vote at all be it PF botmasters as well as non PF botmasters. But I do want to say this specifically to the PF botmasters. I'm not trying to embarass anyone so I'm not naming names but trying to make a valid point about the botmaster voting.

3 people from the PF didn't follow the directions I sent. 1 voted for a bot already in the finals while 2 voted for only 1 bot not the 2 that were required. In addition 1 bot in particular received a good many votes but the botmaster didn't even vote. Had these people followed directions one of the 2 remaining bots would have been a PF bot. It amazes me that you spent an enormous amount of time to make a bot then won't spent a few minutes to read a short e-mail and respond according to the instructions. Oh well you just lost your chance at possibly winning $1800 in prize money plus some nice medals.

Not sure what more I can do. The e-mail seemed pretty straight forward to me.

*Note - Aries and Brother Jerome were only asked to select 1 bot because they had already made the finals. All botmasters who didn't make the finals were ask to select 2 bots.
