Okay!

I see Testify, Red Ring, BeetleBiters, and The Emperor have votes casted for them.

NEW UPDATE- there will be a rumble before the final consisting of all who want to fight in it. TCRR has already registered.

A pre-tournament rumble between Black Spirits, Testify, Mage, and Fusion.
Unfortunately, Black Spirits couldn't compete as a multibot, so only one of the bots entered the rumble.

The match started out in favor of Testify, as Testify damaged Mage almost instantly, knocking Mage into the pit. Fusion managed to hit Black Spirit, throwing it off balance. Testify then struck Black Spirit, critically damaging it. By then Mage had driven itself into the pit, and was out. Testify struck Black Spirit one more time, before becoming unstable and landing in the pit- a major upset.

Black Spirits moved to 1-0, while Testify, Mage, and Fusion moved to 0-1.

For someone who's trying to prove that Wandering spinners are effective in combat, hosting a tournament full of them to prove such point by showing us the first rumble. But instead of posting a video of said rumble, so that everyone on gtm can see what point you're putting forward, and causally enjoy the video. You instead explain the events through a wall of text with only one screenshot of said match, leaving everyone scratching their heads wandering what happen between each key event, making your case point unable to move out of the personal claim territory to a hard case fact.

But seriously. No one on gtm wants to read a wall of text of a match from a tournament. Remember the key rule: Show don't tell! It's better to show us the match through a video so that everyone will be able to see what happen during the rumble in it's full glory to prove your case point, instead of telling it through words when we'll become quickly bored, confused, and stop reading it after even a few words.

This tbh no point saying how good they are if you cant show it. Posting text is pointless as its like wiki anyone can say anything doesn't make it true, for all we know nobody hit anyone and they just all bounced into the pit. If your going to do a tournament to try show off wondering spinners and how good they are then post videos and tbh you would be better off picking a small arena with no hazards as watching uncontrollable things spin into stuff or down a pit isn't robot combat its dumb luck.

Even if you say the match is boring, it still would be nice to actually see what happen, instead of describing the outcome through a wall of text. Otherwise all we assume is that all the bots just moved around, not knowing what else happen inbetween the start of the match, to all three rumble losers falling into the pit one way or another.

For what Nightraven and Dark-AL said, I agree. Gametechmods is not Advanced Robot Combat, so people here generally don't do writing for robot combat (except few who are in ARC too, like me). So you should make a video. You can use Bandicam to record easily, and a free video cutter to cut the recording to just the fight, and a free video editor (I use VSDC for it)
