But still it feels like the bot owner is a cheating rotten bastard, just like the people who make bots for other online games. There was never much appeal in trying to fight with cheaters.

In what way does the bot cheat?  It plays the same game by the same rules within all of the same constraints.  It even expends more energy (implying a higher operating cost) to do so than a human would for the same task.  Where is the "cheat" happening?

I understand the argument that a bot can go 24/7 while a human can't, but I don't quite agree with it.  (I certainly don't see it as cheating or even "unfair" either.)  While it is true that any one person probably couldn't (safely/sanely) "outdo" the bot, together we can.  Just 2-3 humans coordinating could easily "go 24/7" as well and produce just as much as the bot does.  Even if we only got a couple of dozen miners committed to mining in any available free time, uncoordinated, this would likely be enough to end this bot's dominance and remove his capability to choose to 51% attack.

Don't find the game fun at all btw... Elastomania is fun, Moto, on the other hand, has very bulky control/physics that just don't feel right IMO.

This has come up a few times on the thread.  What, specifically, do you find "bulky" about the controls or physics?  Do you find this is still the case even if you speed up the clock?  Can you make any particular suggestions for improvement?

We've had several complaints that the physics "just don't feel right" but (other than the couple of differences identified by William) nothing more specific to actually go on.  We can't fix the problem if no-one can actually point to the problem.
