COMPETITION

If you want to challenge your robot(s) and yourself as robot developer, the RoboRumble@Home is the best way to do it. RoboRumble is the ultimate collaborative effort to have a live, up-to-date ranking of Robocode bots. It uses the power of available Robocoders' computers to distribute the effort of running battles and building the rankings.
RoboRumble is actually 3 different rumbles:

• RoboRumble (aka 1v1): One robot versus another robot - both picked at random. These two robots a alone on the battle field.
• MeleeRumble: Ten robots picked at random all battle against each other..
• TeamRumble: One team versus another team - both picked at random. Each team consists of five or less robots.
