This game is still pre-alpha. If anything breaks, please just post it here and I'll probably see it faster.

I started my first match. The page were I'm taken keeps saying the match is running and hasn't finished yet. I don't see what could take so much, but it's ok. The problem is that if robot A is fighting against B, in A's profile it'll say it's lost against B, and in B's profile it'll say it's lost against A. This is happening with all the robots in the warehouse, ("I", which is my robot, and the other two, who are fighting with each other).

Hey, saw your robot. (Freaked out that someone actually submitted a robot over 2k characters.) Trying to fix the issue right now. Thanks!

It looks like I won. There's no log from the battle, though, so if I had lost I wouldn't know what to improve. In the page for the battle there's just some kind of weird string (http://robotgame.org/match/2)

Yeah, that's the game data (zlib + base64). I'm working on making some sort of replay viewer in JS.
