Yep, I'm doing it again

Tournament Rules

1. Two bots start off in the King of the Hill match (1:00 minute match) in LumaZone . The goal here is to get more points than your opponent. If there's 24 entries, then 3 bots will compete in the KoTH and the bot with the lowest points will be eliminated.

2. The second part will be on the SMALL ARENA same as before, damage the trialbot as much as you can, I'll make a LW trialbot. If the bot miraculously beats both bots (which I doubt), the decision will depend on points. This event will be 2 minutes. After this, the points rom the KoTH part will be summed up with the points from this trial and the bot with the most points moves on.

3. Then the heat will end up with 2 bots, those 2 will fight it out in the fight to the finish arena (I found it here a while ago) and here's how it works; two bots start high above on the platform and they will fight it out for 3 minutes and the bot that gets destroyed, immobilized, or pushed out will be eliminated and the winner will go to the finals.

4. The finals will be different this time, all four finalists will face off in the KoTH and the bot with the lowest points will be eliminated. If a 2-way tie for last happens then both bots are eliminated and we head to the fight to the finish, if a 3-way tie for last or 4-way tie happens then the trial will start over. If three bots remain, they will face again in the KoTH in the Hill Top this time, but the trialbot will join the others as a distraction. If there's a 2-way tie or 3-way tie for last, the trial will restart. The final two will head of to the fight to the finish and...well I think we already get how that works.

Rules
1. DSL Beetleweight
2. Realistic Rule Applies.
3. No cheatbot2 or custom components.
4. No SnSs (won't do good in the KoTH part anyways).
5. No crawlers.
6. Please AI your own bots, if you can't then I will AI the bots (if anyone's willing to help me with AIing, that would be awsome).
7.NO WHINING ABOUT THE BOT AI BEING SCREWY UNLESS THERE IS BELIEVABLE EVIDENCE AND NOT SOMETHING STUPID (I think we all know why this rule was added).
8. Multibots are NOT allowed (due to the fact that if there's a tie).
9. No havok prone bots.
10. No AAM or BFE.
11. No flamethrowers.
12. Only bot types allowed are Horizontal Spinners, Vertical Spinners, Rammers, Face Spinners, Axes, Drums (small discs in rows are acceptable and when I say drums I mean use the DSL drum), Pokers, Lifters, Flippers, Popups, True Popups (1 or 2 spikes only), Side Hammers, Axes, and Side Axes .

I plan on letting in 24 entries. I added a poll to see who's interested.

S.T.C. · « **Reply #8 on:** November 06, 2010, 08:41:15 PM »

Yup, and I'm allowing VS this time

Resetti's Replicas · « **Reply #9 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:04:13 PM »

Have there been any DSL beetleweight tournaments before this one?

Pwnator · « **Reply #10 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:05:23 PM »

Micro Mayhem.

S.T.C. · « **Reply #11 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:05:42 PM »

Yeah, but that's starting over.

SKBT · « **Reply #12 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:30:36 PM »

Time to put Jaws of Defeat on a diet. :P

I hope this goes though.

S.T.C. · « **Reply #13 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:33:56 PM »

What do you mean by this goes though?

SKBT · « **Reply #14 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:36:22 PM »

I don't know what I was trying to type. :P

I'll try to say something coherent that expresses what I think about this tourney. :P

I hope this touney gets voted into the next phase of the tourney progression thingy.

S.T.C. · « **Reply #15 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:38:23 PM »

Ah okay, well that depends on the other members. Let's hope they're interested enough to allow this in the signups board.

GroudonRobotWars · « **Reply #16 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:39:39 PM »

Might join.

S.T.C. · « **Reply #17 on:** November 06, 2010, 09:48:49 PM »

Great!

I'm starting to wonder if this could be already considered as a tournament pop...

Badnik96 · « **Reply #18 on:** November 06, 2010, 10:17:47 PM »

Yay, BW's.

Time for me to NOT fail in the heat final.

027 may also join this, need to ask him.
