Notes:

I will be doing the AI (and bindings), unless you're willing to AI (and bind) yours.
Custom .pys are allowed, but you must send bindings.
You cannot enter, until I have received, and accepted your robot.
If you're using multi-extenders, they've been re skinned to black.
Titanium extenders may also get a re skin.
There will be an intro, and pre-match information (much like in Robot MPire).

The Arena:

Rules:

The game will be a fresh DSL. No custom parts, neither edited components. It will be Realistic: IRL based.
Because I'm new to hosting, I'm only allowed 16 entries.
Empty spaces (if any) will be filled up with bye bots made by moi - obviously.
This will be a Middleweight tournament.
The only Cheatbot2 part allowed, is the Judge motor.
The ONLY glitch allowed, is the small chassis.
Must have at least 2 wheel drive, and all wheel drives must have/show controlled movement.
Meaning no clusters, crawlers, scuttles, etc.
A robot CAN be upgraded (unlimited amount of upgrades), until the end of the deadline for entries.

Matches:

It will be a Single Elimination tournament, since this is my first hosting. Nothing too complicated - yet.
There will be a Rumble at the end of the Singles competition.
3 minute match, per match. Judges' decision will be based on points scored.
The arena will be the Combat Arena, with edited textures; no hazards.
See "The Arena".
I will never disqualify a robot for havoking. If a havok happens, the match will restart, until there is a clear winner.
The rumble, will however allow havoks.

Seems pretty basic. I'll do it.

Naryar · « **Reply #3 on:** April 23, 2013, 01:59:40 AM »

ok i need to do something about this

Probably Rob · « **Reply #4 on:** April 23, 2013, 02:07:34 PM »

Ah well, it was worth a shot, then.

No one will stop you from hosting, Naryar just wants some more ~~variety~~ normal DSL tournaments

Go for It, Rob !

Probably Rob · « **Reply #7 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:25:11 PM »

Added to, and change in the rules.

Judge motor is now the only Cheatbot2 part, allowed.
Must have at least 2 wheel drive, and all wheel drives must have controlled movement.

Here's the arena (the orange hazard stripes, are now yellow):

Byebot #1, Zeros:

Byebot #2, Travis:

ianh05 · « **Reply #9 on:** April 24, 2013, 06:06:26 PM »

Hmm I always thought bye-bots were meant to be weak, like SFTW weak.

Mr. AS · « **Reply #10 on:** April 24, 2013, 06:09:23 PM »

flip test dummy = good byebot

It is weak, no tanks.

ianh05 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 24, 2013, 06:17:28 PM »

but the "Rob Collins" glitch doesn't need tanks to work

Byebot #3, Positive Error (updated):

Probably Rob · « **Reply #14 on:** April 24, 2013, 09:42:23 PM »

Byebot #4, Jamais Vu (updated):

Probably Rob · « **Reply #15 on:** April 24, 2013, 10:25:32 PM »

Last one for today, and it's the return of an old showcased robot, with an updated look.

Byebot #5, Cosmos:

I've decided that I will do a Rumble, at the end of the Singles competition.

ianh05 · « **Reply #16 on:** April 24, 2013, 10:35:07 PM »

Are you making it so that if a bye-bot defeats someone that person goes through anyway? I was going to do the same thing with ARBBC if I didn't get enough teams for it, it's a good way to still have an entertaining match with bye-bots.

Probably Rob · « **Reply #17 on:** April 24, 2013, 10:37:58 PM »

If I have two (or more) recordings of one match where a byebot, and someone else's bot win, I'll probably flip a coin on which one to put through.

Either that, or make it fair and put the person through.

ianh05 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 24, 2013, 10:47:03 PM »

Bye-bots are just there to give the person a free match where they have no chance of not progressing through to the next round. I didn't have any bye-bots(bye-teams in this instance) in ARBBC so the people who would have faced them just went straight through to round 2.

Probably Rob · « **Reply #19 on:** April 25, 2013, 01:07:20 PM »

Ah, screw it, need some nostalgia, and a "shock" entry.

Byebot #6, Forkie:
