Title: Orc's Wars Series 6

Hello :)

RULESET:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tn7ZhJ0szzMD6nmkFwgsg19amrS_f4uFxQoBDPNXBPI/edit?usp=sharing

FORMAT:

OW6 will be running on DSL 2.6 and using a reskinned RW2016 arena.

Starting the 3rd February, submissions will run on a 1 entry per person per week basis: this is to allow everyone a fair chance to get their bots in. So submission weeks will be…
Week starting 3rd February - Robot 1
Week starting 10th February - Robot 2
Week starting 17th February - Robot 3 (not every robot will be accepted at this point due to limited spaces. I'll be picking what I'd like to see take part!)

Good luck to everyone who enters! I look forward to your entries and am happy to answer any questions you have about the event.

I think it goes without saying that this means the Mean Bean Machines tourney is cancelled.

Anyways, I'm hyped.  See ya in the first round exits.

Yeah unfortunately I lost the work that had gone towards OMBM so if you can close/delete that please, I'd appreciate that!

Looking forward to seeing you enter!

-At a completely unrelated event: "I should build something for Orc's Wars when I get home."
-Gets home and completely forgets about it.
-Lying in bed to go to sleep: "I should build something for Orc's Wars when I wake up."
-Completely forgets about it for the entirety of the next day.
And repeat...


Everything is great!

This is your reminder to BUILD FOR OW6!!!
Title: Orc's Wars Series 6 Week 3 Sign-Ups OPEN! 85/128
Post by: TheOrcCorp on February 16, 2025, 06:00:23 PM
We hit Week 3 with 85/128 robots - 43 robots to go!

This week isn't first come, first serve - if we hit over 128 entries then I will be picking what Week 3 entries make the cut based on design, prior experience, fun factor etc. This being said, robots that need fixes that aren't sent to me by the end of this week will be replaced by any additional robots we get.

We sit at 85/128 bots so far - any new applicants will have their first two bots will take priority over other entries (for fairness and to allow everyone to compete)

Looking forward to your final entries!
Title: Orc's Wars Series 6 - 3 DAYS REMAIN
Post by: TheOrcCorp on February 20, 2025, 08:11:56 AM
We are halfway through Week 3 and we have 99 robots from the first 2 weeks/entry spots and 29 Week 3 robots - adding up to 128 robots!

HOWEVER, remember this week isn't first come, first serve:
- If you haven't entered yet then you have priority with your first 2 entries over other builder's third entries.
- Any third entries will be picked from at the end of the week to fill in any roster spaces we have left
- If bots that require fixes aren't sent by the end of this week then they shall be replaced

Final call for your entries!
