[STOCK MW] Light vs Dark 3 - SIGNUPS CLOSED
« on: May 16, 2017, 09:10:58 AM »


BORING RULES
-Stock MW, unrealistic building style.
-No cheatbot parts, custom parts, etc.  This includes recoloured ones.  The exception is flamethrowers, which are allowed.
-Multibots are not allowed due to rumble matches.
-SnS are not allowed.
-Crawlers are not allowed.
-BOTS MUST SHOW CONTROLLED MOVEMENT.
-No BFE, AAM, EXP, or whatever other crazy acronym you guys use.
-Rule of 7 break is allowed, other SergePatcher features are not.
-Arena will be the Parking Lot Arena, hazards on.
-Matches will be 3 minutes each.
-If you don't AI your robot yourself, it gets Omni.py.
-Havok rule: Matches with major havoks will be rerecorded and not shown.
-I reserve the right to disqualify any bot.  Life is simply unfair.
-You may send updates until the signups period ends.

THE GIMMICK
-First, I'll hold a single elimination rumble tournament.  It'll be rumble format to minimize the number of matches.
-Whoever comes first and second will become the team captains.
-Each team captain gives their team a name (or would it be funnier if they named each other's teams?)
-Captain 1 selects a robot to be on their team.
-Captain 2 selects a robot that hasn't been selected yet to be on their team.
-etc.
-Once all robots have been assigned to a team, the actual tournament begins.
-Each team captain secretly tells me one robot on their team to send to battle.  I run the fight, and the losing robot is eliminated.
-Repeat until one team is out of robots.  The other team wins.
-I will enter only if the number of robots would be odd otherwise, however, I cannot become a team captain.  Should I come first or second in the rumble phase of the tournament, I will skip over myself when choosing the captains.
-My robbot is Rotary Macerator:

SIGNUPS:
-Shield
-DemonOfTomorrow
-Dreamcast
-Fracture
-RedAce
-Badnik96
-F1Krazy
-Kurt
-playzooki
-Silverfish
-Mr. AS

Signups are over.

I will not be hosting an IRL tournament.  Mainly because I do not want to have to judge if things are IRL or not.  Hence the "[GONE WRONG]".

Then pull a Redditbots and say its FIRE ruleset: **** It, Real Enough. Then you can just shrug and let it in.

I don't really have much of a clue for which Meta game you want Thrack, the only clue you gave was that "as long as it's not IRL" to avoid judging the bots over realism.
Personally, I want it to be either Retooled-S or DSL-S for the sake of testing my building skills and having more variety over the amount of IRL Tournaments that were held over the forum. I have nothing against IRL, but there needs to be a good mix of Meta game tournaments. Ironforge or Stock is alright I guess, but don't expect me to enter the former. Besides, I don't this argument over the metagames to end up like what happen on the Wen Wars discussion post, since that ended up with DSL-IRL Elitists trying to persuade Wen to make it IRL while some users debated over the popular vote of Ironforge unrealistic if they should go ahead. So, go ahead and pick what you fancy.

Maybe place a limit on captains repeatedly sending one bot (ex. paladin killing everyone but Hitler)

My thought was that the other captain could try sending a bot to counter the one they expect to fight, so if one always sends the same bot that gives the other an advantage.  In theory.

Make Dark-Al pick
Sure, I'll think of something along as it doesn't annoy anyone. Besides, most of the popular ideas are already in the poll.

can you two get a restraining order or something
this
also dark al better pick something like stock but you can only use sledgehammers or something like that.

This is going to be tougher than I thought. I'm stuck between both Stock unrealistic and DSL-S. But I was almost moving towards Retooled-S due to the lack of Retooled tournarments, but no one really builds in Retooled except some people like Redace. So it's the battle between DSL-S and Stock Unrealistic. I'll reach a decision soon.
Edit: Just incase I picked the wrong choice:
