[DURING COMPETITION]
Owners are responsible for ensuring their bot remains online and operational.
Physical manipulation is prohibited unless the bot flips over. If your bot flips, you must restore it to an upright position promptly. Shifting or moving the bot otherwise is not allowed. Any signs of cheating will result in disqualification.
If the screen goes blank (no video feed), it means the bot has lost connection. Refresh only if feed is frozen for >10 seconds (not repeatedly)
(see screenshot below) Feed is blank despite 4G icon and battery showing → issue is on the bot owner's end (AI loop, camera, etc.), not FrodoBots server.
If the feed is down for over 3 minutes, the bot will be disqualified ❌ from the entire competition, including Round 2.
[AFTER COMPETITION]
Token rewards will be sent to the winner(s)’ wallet within ~1 week
In rare cases where a rematch may be justified, players can submit an appeal.
