Robot Paper Scissors (MW)
« on: April 08, 2010, 07:23:29 AM »
Here is this random competition that I thought of when I woke up, so if it sucks or has already been done, it's my fault.

It's a competition with NO AI'ing, and no seeing your bot getting trashed.

What happens here, is I post a bot.

What you have to do is then beat that robot in some way, shape or form (better weapon, better design, better item placement/ chassis)

Then, after that, someone else tries to beat that, and it just keeps going and going until we have the ultimate MW!

All you have to do is 2 things.

1: Take 2 pictures of your bot, outside (shell) and inside (electronics)

2. Post it!

The only rules are...

1. Standard DSL Realistic Rules Apply
2. No BFE or AAM, all building must be done in the Bot Lab
3. It must be a MiddleWeight.

And that is it! Yes, cheatbot2 IS ALLOWED!

Don't see that often, do ya?

NOTE TO ALL YOU TAG TEAM TORNADO GUYS: I'm only helping this thing start off, then i'll give it to TeamXtreemer.

Here's the first bot for you to beat:


(THEY ARE JUDGE BURST MOTORS NOT MAGS. I'm not that stupid)

Oh boy...

I'm just trying something different, thats all. It's not a proper competition, so it don't go in discussion, signups or any of those places, and it is kinda like a showcase...

So here it goes.

If it was real, those two separate sections would be welded together, and in the controls, there is no option to flip only one.

After a certain point, it is impossible to tell which is better just by looking.  Say if The Ounce build one, and Naryar try to improve on it, how do we know that Naryar's is better than The Ounce's?

This is just about looks. If we come to a tie or something, we'll just start fresh. But seriously guys, make your own bots, not just improve on someone elses.
