I'm gonna go with the first ideas that comes to my head. Will certainly change these rules/creation later. This first attempt is going to be to maximize chances of making into FTC, by being weak, and dodge people targeting based on prowess, which seems like it will be the primary way to target.
100 Saviness 0 Social 0 Strength
Rules for voting:
IF a team is going to win immunity, then that team will not be added to our list of potential teams to vote for that round.
Round 1: Vote for the robot with the highest Sociability (I expect at least one team to give themselves high sociability and knock out the higher team to give themselves immunity in the second round. I'm not sure if we want that to succeed or not. We certainly want there to be another wagon other than the winning round, and this will maximize the chances that this person actually gets a wagon on them. The other ideas I can think of seem more likely to leave us isolated on a random wagon.) Round 2 : Vote for the robot with the highest Strength. (Same as above for reasoning) Round 3: Vote for the other, not immune robot. (this vote is gonna be locked in for us, because we can't possibly win immunity. If we could, we'd have to think about jury appeal and how people will judge. That seems super random TBH.)

Sounds good to me. I was thinking of banking on the strongest bots being voted out first so we can win twice in a row by pulling off the complete opposite of that build, which would be...
0 Saviness 50 Social 50 Strength
Then we vote for the robot with the highest social and strength, like we said earlier. In the third, we vote for the other robot again or the one that we think would do the best on the jury for any number of reasons.
Also, personal thing-- can we name the robot 'Beetlebot'? Beetlejuice's sacrifice must be remembered.

After some mulling over of the challenge, I agree with your assessment. I think that making it to the final four every time at least gives us some chance of making it deep again? At the very least, we won't have to win challenges.

We should also have some sort of function in place to prevent our bots from malfunctioning.

Can I get a 12 hour extension?

Can I get a 12 hour extension? Is it necessary for it to be 12 or more hours, or would 8-10 hours suffice?

Bot Stats: 100 Savviness 0 Strength 0 Social
Voting rules: Vote according to these rules. If for some reason the robot subject to our vote would be immune, then vote for the one with the second-highest of that stat instead, and follow the guidelines here. If for some reason there would be a malfunction of any sort, vote for a random robot that is not immune and not ourselves.
Round 1: Vote for the robot with the highest Sociability. If there is a tie between two or more for highest sociability, break the tie randomly. Round 2: Vote for the robot with the highest Strength. If there is a tie between two or more for highest strength, break the tie randomly. Round 3: Vote for the robot with the highest Savviness that is not our own. If there is a tie between two or more for that, break the tie randomly.
Do not vote for ourselves under any circumstances.
Final Tribal: Vote for the robot that has gotten the most amount of votes over the course of the game. If there is a tie, vote for the robot that has the lowest savviness of the two. If there is a tie, vote for the lowest strength, then the lowest social. If it is still tied, vote randomly.
Robot name: Beetlebot.

Am I crazy or won't the challenge be before the TC. If so, setting the bot up the way you have is going to accomplish nothing, and I don't think other players are going to be targeting the way you have, so we won't even be creating a new wagon which was the whole point of my setup. Establishing a clear "second favorite wagon" in the hopes that another tribe had the idea "vote whomever got the most votes last round" would be led astray.

Oh. I was just establishing a set of rules, not an order to do them in. That's how it's worked when I've seen this challenge play out before. You can make a new completely different bot if you want, I don't know a thing about what I'm doing here.
