Well, I'm still here.
But I don't know for how long.
That's as much certainty as anyone can give me.
But I've got some good news: I no longer have any fear of death.
But... I am in a pretty lonely place.

These bots wan't be around for long if matched against 'real' bots, but they are quite explanatory:

NervousDuck:

require 'robot'

class NervousDuck
  include Robot

  def tick events
    turn_radar 1 if time == 0
    turn_gun 30 if time < 3
    accelerate 1
    turn 2
    fire 3 unless events['robot_scanned'].empty? 
  end
end

SittingDuck:

require 'robot'
class SittingDuck
  include Robot
  def tick events
    turn_radar 5 if time == 0
    fire 3 unless events['robot_scanned'].empty? 
    turn_gun 10   

    @last_hit = time unless events['got_hit'].empty? 
    if @last_hit && time - @last_hit < 20
      accelerate(1) 
    else
      stop    
    end
  end
end
