No realistic rule? Sweet! I actually might go for this one since it was october 2 years ago I pulled my only BOTM win. Lets see if I can do it again,  last october it was MW hammer so I didnt have a chance as I fail at MWs.

Muhuhahahaha...et cetera.
 
I've actually got quite a good idea for this one, I reckon. =D

Make sure you don't cheat this time.

Post by: Naryar on September 02, 2010, 11:40:59 AM
By the rules, that's not cheating :P

But... IT WAS A TRAP !

Wish I could enter Bulldozer 4 :P
If I am correct, there is nothing in the rules to say that I couldn't, it would just be pretty obvious that it was me

YAY something that might actually be fun. Too bad I suck at DSL.

What the heck are you talking about ? You're not really a DSL top builder, but "suck" is a strong word :P

Too bad I suck at DSL.

This might level the playing field a bit, depending on how much you "suck". :P

Too bad I actually suck at DSL.  :rage

Still, I think I might have a chance at doing better this month.  I'm gonna put a lot of thought into this month's entry.

Well, I don't enter BOTM to win, I enter to have fun and to boost my bot building skills.

Too bad I suck at building.

Clarify what "AI parts are NOT allowed" means?  I didn't realize there were unlockable AI parts in DSL like stock.  Or am I misinterpreting the rule?
Title: Re: BOTM October 2010
Post by: Somebody on September 02, 2010, 06:12:26 PM
cheatbot2 parts I believe...

That, and the fact that people have been known to use "other" AI parts......if you don't know, then you probably wont use them.

Excellent.  I am glad that my negligence pays off from time to time.
Title: Re: BOTM October 2010
Post by: Naryar on September 02, 2010, 06:22:55 PM
Do you mean "balanced" non-cheatbot2 AI parts are also banned ? (vlad spike, hypno tooth, firestorm flipper, killalot drill, etc, etc)
Title: Re: BOTM October 2010
Post by: ACAMS on September 02, 2010, 06:54:18 PM
If they are in your non modded game, then you can use them.....if you have to txt edit, or cheatbot2 then you can't.
Title: Re: BOTM October 2010

May enter. Don't like the idea of unrealism, but it could bring something fun forward XD

Just read what has been said before, if you dont need to txt edit or use cheatbot2, then you can use it.

DSL HW has the potential for much more various designs than DSL LW.

I agree. Once you've gotten the drive and batteries in, there's not entirely much else you can do.
 
On a side not, I have sent my entry. =P

If you are one of the TWO that used flamethrowers, you have about 40 minutes to fix it......or they WILL be DQed!
