afaik , there is a K factor linked to the confidence in the ranking, and add inertia (strong dans moves slowlier) I guess putting this K to espilon (or zillions) should solve the problem, allowing bots to have a rank without any impact on the rest of the pool. It might be a one line change (if bot K=0) Also adding a question mark for bot's rank to indicate it is not so good...
