Turns out I have a visitor in town this weekend, and as such, I''m going to extend the contest one more week. I don''t know if anybody needs it or wants it, but you''re getting it. Hopefully this isn''t too much of an inconvenience for anyone, but I didn''t know about this visitor for this weekend until recently, and I don''t want to have everyone waiting next week for me to run everyone''s bots. In any case, I won''t be updating the contest webpage about this, since I assume all 6 of you are checking this forum. Also, all the midterm bots are available now, so everyone has at least a week to play with them. Kevin "Khawk" Hawkins
