[Ironforge AW] Iron Fighters - SIGNUPS CLOSED
« on: April 05, 2017, 04:13:10 PM »


"but redace what about that irl tournament you wanted to do"

Well, I discussed this in the GTM Discord chat, and we agreed that we were sick of IRL tournaments at the moment since there is a large amount going on at the moment, and that pretty much everyone kinda stole my idea, so I decided to put it on hold at the moment and wait for a bit.  I also haven't done very many Ironforge tournaments and there isn't much of those going on at the moment.

GENERAL RULES:
- Ironforge Standard Antweights
- 16 Entrants
- One entrant per person, but in the event that signups are going slow, I will allow people to send a second bot.
- I'm willing to AI if you are not able to, but don't complain what I AI'd your bot or you will disqualified automatically (It will not change once the SBV thread is up.)
- You cannot enter unless your bot is received and accepted.
- I will not be entering

BUILDING RULES:
- Antweight bots only (70.0 KG or less)
- Standard building rules apply
- You cannot use BFE, AAM, Hax, txt file editing, etc.
- The Rule of 7 Break is allowed.  No other Component Freedom uses allowed
- No cheatbot2 or custom parts allowed.
- Smart Zones will not count toward weight, but you cannot use them to act as a ballast
- You can use up to four ballasts without it affecting your weight
- Bots must have powered two wheels minimum.
- Crawlers and Multibots are banned.
- Bots will not be AI'd with Meltybrain tactics.
- Interchangeable weapons and forms along with Multibots/Drones are banned.
- I recccomend bots that are the best of your ability, and while Jokebots, replicas, IRL style bots, etc. are allowed, but bear in mind that you will be at a severe disadvantage.
- You can make an update once and only once (The only exception if it's a skin change or anything very minor).
- If an updated bot is illegal, then I will use the original bot you sent me.

MATCH RULES:
- 2 minute length battles
- 1 vs. 1 Battle Format
- Best of 3
- The Arena will be the ELBITE Tournament Arena (Possibly Reskinned)
- If a bot does a Havok Explosion which costs the battle for it's opponent, that said bot will get a free restart, if this happens again, that bot will be disqualified.
- Double Elimination Bracket
- Judging will determined by the damage points at the end of the match

tl;dr simple aw ironforge standard tournament

Thanks dude, and with that said...

Signups are now open!

I'd prefer you'd send them to me via either Discord or in a GTM PM.  If I don't report back immediately if I got your bot or not, then I apologize.

Since signups are going a bit slow at the moment, I will extend the maximum amount of entrants to two per person.  So if you sent one already, you can send another.  If you haven't entered yet, then you can now send me two.
