After 100 hours I still have not had any extinction level events. So score. Right now I've gotten the occasional reproduction event. But nothing that's been really repetitive, nothing is really bursting outward just yet. However at about 85 hours I did have a huge spike of 45 births. I have no idea what happened other than only 1 seems to have survived out of the 45 and that might be coincidental. My theory is that something reproduced and might have repeatedly split itself up until they all died but I don't know how likely that is. Regardless 45 bots were born (and I think they died off as the population level remained static almost and it wasn't that they killed an equal number of bots) and then 44 of those 45 died. So essentially all of them. After this I upped the frequency of the bleedbot being planted in a little to give newcomers better chances to get some energy and stick around, cause if they have any costs they are in a REAL hostile environment, need to baby them a little bit.
