So, about Orc's Wars Extreme, have you already think of the maximum entry for the main event?

So is the plan for OW for 6 main series with 2 extremes and then hand it over to another channel for a final series to then close it for 10 years to only revive it with 3 new series? :really_makes_you_think:

No idea what you're referring to  :really_makes_you_think:

But another great OW I'm glad I could be a part of it, well done Orc   :mrgreen:

Nope, to make it fair: bots will be checked through on a daily basis. For example, I'll check through all of tomorrow's bots in the evening and then I'll post an update of what spaces are left and who has got in! This way, it allows me to look over all the robots I get sent, instead of just using what I get first as that isn't fair on people in certain timezones. :smile:

So I'm guessing you pick the best bots for the tourney if you get more entries than the event can hold?

Yessir, just like the real shows. Not just powerful bots but visually pleasing bots too!

Maybe I'm just dumb but what are those weight limits? Or is it just a rule so there aren't like dozens of shell spinners in one tournament? :o
I have a showcase! :3
Also some moments... xD

All those you listed are for Heavyweights! You can enter as many events as you want with whatever robots you want. :smile:

In other news, I'll be posting an update later today about the bots I received yesterday (Day 1)...I'm just still going through them!
