Abstract
The UBU RoboCup team is described. Intuitive ideas and general objects for the participating researchers and their students are presented. The UBU team participates in the simulation league. The key idea is to repeatedly use the advice provided by a normative pronouncer (or decision module) when choosing what to do next. The pronouncer acts on input from each individual player, the basis of which is stored in a local information base. The team is under continuous development: At the time of writing, no version of UBU makes extensive use of pronouncer calls.
