Cool. Will be a good watch.

An interesting anomaly, a Splash/Brackets/Videos thread without any Splash, Brackets or Videos. :gawe:

Should be a pretty good tournament, though. Be interesting to see who's entered what designs, and how things go between the pairings.

it's really pointless to make a SBV thread with just the rules, that are nothing new.

I hope to at least win a battle here

WTF, I sent you completely the wrong bot, my 10000V was my See No Evil entry, as VS. :S

My confidence has plummeted. But oh well, someone has to come last. :gawe:

Also, PMbomb'd.

Haha and I even said that in one of my PMs to you right after you sent in your entries.

"Currently"? :P

Wanted to let you know that 10000V (which is totally not the same as your See No Evil entry :s) has "Components/battery.txt" instead of battery2.txt in the .bot file for the Nifty. Kids these days and their BFE...

Any chance of a swap?
Title: Re: BroBots: SBV *Splash is up!*
Post by: NFX on March 08, 2012, 05:05:59 PM
I'm in two minds about it. On the one hand, you didn't want this bot to be entered, and that screws up your plans and such, but on the other, you know what all the competitor bots are now, so there's nothing to stop you entering a bot designed to beat them. I'm not suggesting that's what you'll do, but it sets a bit of a worrying precedent if we allow it. Since we know it's your See No Evil entry, though, I'm willing to go with it.

No, sorry, the rules said submitted entries are final, and then there's the fact that you've seen all the entries already. I'd have to edit the splash as well.

Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on March 09, 2012, 01:06:42 AM
I should have realised when you said the bot had an illegal component, but I didn't have a copy of stock so I couldn't see what bot I was sending. The same thing happened in SNE. Now I'm pretty easy to counter because only one of my bots can move properly, and that one only had 1 wheel! D:

But one of yours is also a rammer. Which makes it cooler and interesting. =P

Repeating this, as some people like Jonzu and RPJK have PM'ed me with the bot they want to use for the first round.

The PM'ing procedure now works so that you give me a list of all opposing teams, and assign one of your bots to fight against each pair, even if you will not necessarily face them. See the rules for the update.
Title: Re: BroBots: SBV *Splash and Brackets are up!*
Post by: Fracture on March 15, 2012, 12:30:37 PM
Brackets are up. Reier vs. S_M will be fun.

AE2 will win this like all other stock LW tourneys :trollface
But 1WD is allowed. :P
S_M's so cheap with his 1WD lameness

/whine
Any chance of a swap?
Penalty for 1WD :trollface

Also, still need matchups from the following people:

Hercules
Squirrel_Monkey
Reier
RPJK

Post by: NFX on March 15, 2012, 12:33:47 PM
Slightly favourable draw, I suppose. Hopefully I'll get through at least the first round. But then things'll be very tough.
Title: Re: BroBots: SBV *Splash and Brackets are up!*
Post by: Fracture on March 15, 2012, 12:36:10 PM
Haha, the brackets were purely random, but I just realized that everyone fighting each other in the first round match up with the splash. :o

Jonzu... not my ideal matchup.  I had a tough time deciding which bot to use against him and I'm still not sure I made the right choice.

Post by: Trovaner on March 25, 2012, 11:02:18 PM
IMO, 720p would look better than 1080p. Without custom status bars, they get to be too small to read at 1080p. Other than that, it looks pretty good and I'm looking forward to seeing how this tourament will progress.

That's why if you go 1080p you make it full-screen and if you want to keep the default size you leave it in 360p/720p? :P

But thanks; it's cool to have a comment from someone who isn't even involved in the tournament!

VS:  The one type of bot I didn't plan for.  I was expecting an HS/wedge fest.   :ermm:
 

Lol that's nothing new.
 
But don't say I did bad yet, there's still the loser's bracket.

Hey Fracture! plan on making a sequel anytime? i really liked this one and i wish i could have entered it.
I don't think so; tournament hosting isn't really my thing. I feel it takes up too much time and the 2-month deadline just puts even more pressure on me. But if anyone likes the idea, I'll gladly let them take over for any future BroBots reincarnations.

It pays the price with mobility. Pushy bots should be able to do well against them, such as Drone in Starcore V4a.
