 Format:There will be two separate sections of the tournament - Stock MWs and DSL IRL MWs.
In each section, there'll be four initial heats consisting of four robots, with each heat lasting 3:00 minutes. The two bots which have not been eliminated through immobilization or the two bots with the highest amount of points gained for capturing the hill at the end of the round will move onto a second set of rounds. This second set of rounds will consist of the same process, with the winning four robots of said round moving on to a final KOTH round. The two winners of this round will then have to fight in a final Deathmatch-style battle, with the winner of that battle being crowned champion.
If there is ever a tie between two bots for a position within the winning two, a separate 1v1 will be held in order to decide who moves on. Stock MW:- Stock MWs only, all custom components including skins and all cheatbot2 parts are banned. AI Parts will however be allowed, including 140cm Extenders.
- There will be a limit of 16 entries in this section of the tournament and competitors will be limited to entering one robot during the first two weeks of the signups. If the spots are not filled by the end of the two weeks, then competitors will be able to enter a maximum of three entries.
- I will handle programming the AI, however you will be able to send in your own bindings if required and it is encouraged that you name
- External edits such as AAM and other means of modifying the bot outside the lab will be considered illegal and should your bot be edited in such a way - it will be instantly rejected.
- BFE will be allowed under certain circumstances, these include:
- Editing the reflectance of your bot's armor texture.
- Editing the robot's skin.
All other instances where BFE is used are illegal and, if used on your bot, will lead to rejection. - External edits such as AAM and other means of modifying the bot outside the lab will be considered illegal and should your bot be edited in such a way - it will be instantly rejected.
- There will be a 100kg weight penalty for Full Trinity SnS and 1WD Bots. However, Trinity Thwackers will not receive the same penalty.
- Crawlers are allowed - the chances of a crawler being able to have enough control to hold the hill are slim to none.
- Jokebots and IRL bots will be allowed, however said bots will be placed in reserve slots which can be taken by any other competitor if necessary. If you still have a bot in a reserve slot which has not been taken yet, you will be allowed to send in a serious entry to replace your robot. Any serious entries sent to replace a joke or IRL entry will make the reserve slots permanent ones, meaning your entries will no longer be at risk of replacement.
- Highly-complex uncommon stacks, ie. Stacking two RADs and a CB into a Nifty or something ridiculous like that, without any video proof will be considered Hax Mode and as a result will mean that bots using such stacks will be rejected. However, any of the more common complex/advanced stacks such as the Dual HP-Ztek stack or the Nifty-ZTek-CB Stack will be permitted.
- Competitors will be able to update their bots as many times as they wish during the initial signup period.
- No multibots.
DSL IRL MW:- DSL MWs only, all custom components including skins are banned.
- The only permitted cheatbot2 parts are: Buster
Wheel, Growler Wheel, M.O.E Wheel, All "Judge" Extras excluding the gavel,
HMNTs (Heavy Metal Noise Teeth), Matilda Flywheel, Beta Wheel, Beta Handles. - The realistic rule is strongly enforced in this section of the tournament. Any bots which seem to breach the rule will be rejected. This includes any robots which do not show any means of controlled movement such as 1WD bots.
- There will be a limit of 16 entries in this section of the tournament and competitors will be limited to entering one robot during the first two weeks of the signups. If the spots are not filled by the end of the two weeks, then competitors will be able to enter a maximum of three entries.
- I will handle programming the AI, however you will be able to send in your own bindings if required and it is encouraged that you name
- External edits such as AAM and other means of modifying the bot outside the lab will be considered illegal and should your bot be edited in such a way - it will be instantly rejected.
- BFE will be allowed under certain circumstances, these include:
- Editing the reflectance of your bot's armor texture.
- Editing the robot's skin.
- Chassis editing within reason.
All other instances where BFE is used are illegal and, if used on your bot, will lead to rejection. - External edits such as AAM and other means of modifying the bot outside the lab will be considered illegal and should your bot be edited in such a way - it will be instantly rejected.
- There will be a 100kg weight cushion for Walkers Only. The walker system must also not use weapon components as it will otherwise be considered a crawler and will therefore be illegal.
- Jokebots will be allowed, however said bots will be placed in reserve slots which can be taken by any other competitor if necessary. If you still have a bot in a reserve slot which has not been taken yet, you will be allowed to send in a serious entry to replace your robot. Any serious entries sent to replace a joke or IRL entry will make the reserve slots permanent ones, meaning your entries will no longer be at risk of replacement.
- Competitors will be able to update their bots as many times as they wish during the initial signup period.
- No multibots.
- No flamethrowers.
 Hazards Off, will be used for all rounds.  Top: Stock MW, Bottom: DSL IRL MW

 Aliens have invaded GTM to steal our beer. We don't want aliens stealing our beer, do we? Rules (Image & Entry):Rules (Text):
MISSION DETAILS:
1. Engagement against the said threat shall be done under order of an
eight-man squadron each divided into pairs. Upon completion of the Enlistment
period, the squadrons are given three days to confer about improvements on
their unmanned drones. The mission shall be done in shifts, each of which is
to deter a pair of enemy extraterrestrials which are attempting to raid the
beer stores of the GTM Military. The intention of this mission is to recieve
what are known as "points" through the destruction of the enemy unmanned
vehicle. Upon engaging the enemy and prevailing the pair shall recieve a total
point count and shall be granted a multiplier increase (eg. 1x goes to 2x)
which shall increase the points earned in the engagement by multiplying the
regular score with the multiplier. If the pair loses the engagement they will
be granted half the points in which they recieve and shall have their
multiplier reset to x1. For every shift there will be a new wave of oncoming
aliens which are theoried to be tougher than those which preceeded them.
The squadron with the highest amount of points by the end of the mission shall
be promoted.
2. The unmanned drones are to be constructed in DSL and shall be
restricted to the IRL-style of construction only, those which are not the
said style shall recieve disciplinary action. The unmanned drones are to be
Heavyweight-class drones. This category is restricted to drones between
400kg-799kg ONLY. Multi-Drones/Multibots, Popups, Crawlers and the like are
barred from enlistment.
3. The following methods of construction shall not be permitted:
NARmour, AAM, NCR Glitch, Trovaner Glitch, BFE and Hax Mode. The only
components classified as "cheatbot2" which shall be permitted are: Buster
Wheel, Growler Wheel, M.O.E Wheel, All "Judge" Extras excluding the gavel,
HMNTs (Heavy Metal Noise Teeth), Matilda Flywheel, Beta Wheel, Beta Handles.
4. The Squad Leader shall be handling all queries regarding the
programming of the drones, however it is recommended each squad member
places their own "smart zones" in order to prevent confusion.
5. The Squad Leader shall be entering the unmanned drone "Droste-
Effect" if the enlistment slots are not filled.
6. All "HAVOK" related incidents will be ignored twice before a
multiplier reset upon reaching the third "HAVOK" incident.
Signed

 Format:There will be four initial brackets, each consisting of four robots. Robots will have to fight for the hilltop in the middle of the arena in order to earn points. Once the three minute match-time is done or two of the robots have been eliminated, the two remaining entries or the two entries with the highest amount of points will move on to the next bracket, ect. The tournament is single-elimination only, and no Loser's Bracket will be present, however if there is a tie between two robots at the end of the match, a "decider" deathmatch-battle will be done between the two tied robots to see who goes through. The format will continue until only two robots are left. The two remaining robots will be pit in a final battle which uses a non-KOTH format, and the winner of the finals will be the winner of the tournament.

I'm having several problems with my UI for the AI pack which I am making, and I don't seem to know what the problem is with this:  I have resized the logo to 512px by 128px and have changed the .gib file accordingly, I also saved the logo in both GIMP and Paint.Net and it still doesn't work.

The format will continue until only two robots are left. The two remaining robots will be pit in a final battle which uses a non-KOTH format, and the winner of the finals will be the winner of the tournament. General Rules: - Stock LW only, custom components will be omitted.
- 16 Entries, bye-bots will be constructed to fill empty-entries if necessary.
- I will be handling the AI, however it would be a help if you could name your controls accordingly. (Forward, LeftRight, Spin, ect.)
- No cheatbot2 parts, AI Parts will however be allowed, including the Snapper II.
- BFE, Thyrus Glitch and other external edits are banned. Skinning is not included.
- I will be allowing the Trovaner Chassis Glitch, not that anyone needs it.
- Hax Mode and Uber Stacking is banned, however the eFFe Glitch, Snapper Loading and other similar glitches are permitted.
- No 140cm Extenders, period.
- The bot must have at least a two-wheel drive. 1WD Sit'n'Spins, Bumble-Balls, Cluster-Bots and all types of Crawlers will be disqualified.
- Cheap-Norris bots will be disqualified.
- Multibots are not allowed, however robots with interchangeable weaponry (multiple entries with one identical chassis, drive and such, but each with different weapons) are allowed to a limit of six weapon varieties.
- Unlimited Upgrades/Exchanges are allowed during the sign-ups period. Only robots which have interchangeable weaponry available will be able to be swapped-out during the tournament.
Havok Rules: - There will be no Havok-restarts during the main tournament, however there will be one Havok-restart available for the final-battle or decider/tiebreaker-matches.
Hazards off, will be used for the Final-Battle and Regular Rounds.
My Entry: Jackrabbit, Plastic, 3 Pinks, 247.1kg and 2 Z-Teks. Jackrabbit duplicates will be used as bye-bots. - Paranoia

def Tick(self):
# check to see if anyone has been "eliminated" by falling off the tabletop
for each in self.players:
if plus.getLocation(each)[1] < -6:
plus.eliminatePlayer(each)
deathOpt = ("Misc_SinisterLaugh1.wav", "Misc_SinisterLaugh3.wav", "Misc_DontLookDown.wav")
sounds['death'] = plus.createSound("Sounds/announcers/"+random.choice(deathOpt), False, (0,0,0))
plus.playSound(sounds['death'])
This script is part of that from Flextop, it causes a Runtime-Error when a bot is eliminated from falling. Any idea why?

Let's try this again, shall we?  Meet the Aperture Rotary Defense Drone, a Horizontal Spinner with two Tribars powered by HP Z-Teks, each having six Razors; that's 100% more razor, per razor. The tri-bars are angled; a mistake which turned out to be a benefit not a detriment, as this allowed the bot to dispatch Pop-Ups much more easily, and also the majority of wedge-shaped bots. The only problem present in the bot seems to be the lack of power, the bot only running on a Nifty due to a lack of space. This is my first attempt at a servo-loaded snapper loaded and EFFE glitch robot, and I would like the input of the community in order to improve it.

Well, I'm still pretty new to the forum's level of building. Which means if I build something, It would probably look like a SFTW. Like this:  So yes, I want t ask some questions. A. How do you change the joint for a part? Like changing from one joint of the RedBird to the back joint. B. Do you have any tips on buildin HS and VS in stock? C. Is there an arena creation program which can make the arenas for RA2?
