Title: More Lightning Bots Please!
Post by browni3141 on Feb 24^th, 2013, 1:43pm

It is very sad that the server only offers one lightning bot to play, and even sadder that that bot is bomb. I personally would really like to be able to play other bots at 8s/move time controls. At first I didn't ask because I didn't think very many would be attracted to the idea, but just look at all the action ziltoid is getting!

If you are looking at this at the time of posting, most of those games are with Max, but I have seen several other players besides him and myself playing ziltoid.

Note that bot_ziltoid does not have a set time control. Depending on when you look at the recent games, you may not see any lightning games at all.
Looking at the game record shows about a dozen people played at lightning speed.
