Stock MW "freak" bot

RS, I like the idea of sometimes having a 'Freak bot' contest....
You'd probably have to come up with some simple parameters...

Venko wins, End of story.

Medium Weight Hammer stock.

ORLY?

I got a few freaks that pwn. So does Scrap (SBob FTW!). Ask him about them :P.

As for parameters being set, I agree with you on that, Madiaba. Since it would be really hard to set parameters though, ACAMS could probably just pick a couple of respected people on the forum (you and Clickbeetle for example) to deem it a "freak" or not. That's just a suggestion for one way of doing it.

Weird, but I was thinking stock MW hammer bot too!

Venko · « **Reply #8 on:** August 03, 2008, 03:08:44 AM »

The idea of ultra realistic stock bot is very good. I even want to see a tournament for those bots. But with not only "realistic rule", we must include "total realistic rule". This means NO DSA and NOT EVEN ONE GLITCH OF ANY TYPE OR STACKING. Lets go back to stock AI bots level... :biggrin:
Dont even say "splash of the month contest". You all just dont know what Photoshop skills i can show. Here im for sure a winner even more than in :
"~~~~~FREAK BOTS CONTEST~~~~~"
Did my ears hear right this "music for my ears"? :biggrin:
Im falling a lot for this idea...
This stock MW hammers and rammers are boring. Dont be so sure that i will win. I want this "freak" contest!
Let me help with some "parametars" for "FREAK", since im considered by others as kinda a expert of 'freak' bots.
The main thing in "freak" bot must be your different and variable dreams. It must show how can someone push his dreams to the limits. In freak we dont seek for efficiency, even mega lame weapon system is enough. We dont seek for superb building skills. "Freak" bot must have some general idea in him, and must be made and painted as it. It must have some unseen to now unique wierd cool weapons or driving system which vote will say is it that or not. Freak bot must be like some piece of art and we must look at him as sclupture for example not as efficiency at all coasts. The HW and SHW are most suitable for freaks, forget other weights, its like to give to a painter a small canvas to paint. So all entrys must be free and no rules and voters to choose by thyr opinions for "freak", is the job done well or not. Only one rule : bots must "look cool" not so effective...

dsl most "original" MW contest

Sage · « **Reply #11 on:** August 03, 2008, 12:02:56 PM »

im sorry to say venko, you have not showed any "amazing" skill in photoshop as of yet.

Madiaba · « **Reply #12 on:** August 03, 2008, 08:01:47 PM »

I still think that a 'Freak-bot" contest would be cool and should be thrown in the mix. Just like the categories of the old forum....
*Reminds me of Madbeaver and Rojo's totally cool Freakbots....Esp. the one that ingested, and then "excremented 3-dimensional-rectangular-building-objects" (hehe)*

R0B0SH4RK · « **Reply #13 on:** August 03, 2008, 09:08:57 PM »

I remember those. As Madiaba said, they shat bricks! Literally!

Venko · « **Reply #14 on:** August 05, 2008, 02:18:09 AM »

OF COURSE im not showing any "amazing" skills in photoshop yet. I was talking about future works. So far i only make my pics in a 2-3 mins. What if i want to put some more work... And i have photoshop from years...
And here on the forum have user than was seen some of my work...

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #15 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:40:55 AM »

venko. no matter what you build, none of your bots will ever be compared to the known veterans who are active and lurk considering i've never seen you online, nor enter tournaments.

ACAMS · « **Reply #16 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:52:21 AM »

Want to see a pic of Venko entering BBEANS?

System32 · « **Reply #17 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:55:02 AM »

Yeah.

ACAMS · « **Reply #18 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:55:35 AM »

OK, since you asked.....

You will have to click to see it since this is kinda ugly and crude.
