Take a guess.
Clue, you don't agree with me very often.
One of the 3 silent ones it is. I don't agree with being silent. Gonna guess it's the captain's brother. His ideas when he does talk are kinda... Just, no.

Hello, teammate. 
Which one? One of the silent 3, the captain, or the one that argues with the captain?

Sorry bout that Craaig. Anyways the voting is in sway of the match decisions. Rule change is under the bracket section. If you didn't catch it up in the rules, when submitting a bot, you join a team.
After sign-ups, each team will nominate one team member to be the captain of the team.
At the beginning of each match, the team captains will PM me which 4 robots will fight in the next match-ups.
This number will decrease to half of the losing team each round.
This will loop until no robots are left on one of the teams. We also have to re-do the vote section, so get yours in. (Even though we had 15 to 1 at one point, this change is probably too large...) Edit: Due to the fact I don't like 1 fights per video style, Team captains now have to choose 4 different robots instead of just 1. This number will decrease to half of the losing team each round.

I'd still go with selecting which bots to use by having team votes on which of their bots is going to be used in the next round. it seems like it would add a layer of strategy to the tournament, which truly make the most use of the team gimmick. It means bots can be used to instantly counter another bot if they think the opponent will use it. A little bit of chance but mostly strategy.
Maybe its an idea for another tournament, but for now, I don't know how to make this work without one team being on top early and the other team basically being doomed.
Sure this is all possible in the current tournament, but having all the match-ups be by chance lowers the possibility of it being 7 vs 1 after the first round.
Having it be 8 and 0 after the first round is literally my worst nightmare for this tournament.
Rather than voting for next matchup, what if each team just selected their next bot to compete, not announce matchups. Early on this wouldn't seem to make a difference, but as the available pool of opponents dwindles it becomes more of a team strategy of which bot to put forward.
That is precisely what i was trying to say, but couldn't articulate. Thank you.
1 fight at a time eh? Well now the coin flip seems possible. That's definitely something to think about... I'll poll it. Craaig/Yugitom might wanna hang back on moving this to sign-ups now...

Also, how will you keep the teams from being horribly mismatched, for example, everyone is an edgelord and chooses dark?
Bye bots and maximum entries. Once a team gets fully filled everyone else will be forced to join the other team.

>light vs dark
might as well call it HONKIES vs NIGGERS you racist
I just took the name off of a spectacular game mode off a spectacular game. No racism intended. you might want to contact one of the actual mods to get your tournament into singups, yugi has been pretty inactive lately
Didn't know one could do that. Will try.

That's a cool one.
You custom make the disk or from some unknown mod?

Trying to move this to sign-ups.
So if there's any last minute changes you guys want. Make it quick.

How can you have so many pieces on the floor and not have the game crash?
The Shell spinner vs Megiddo was insane!
Anyway this heat was full of old vets. But its the new ones that make it through.

Weird color change right at the beginning but hey, its the battles you came for.
Congratulation Baconus_Yum.
Though honestly, Avalanche had the much better bot.

Great news.
I had to Re-Download DSC's packs to do it, but the bots work now.

I question these:
A: How do we choose the Captains?
B: Which of the two captains gets their way when they have contradicting matchups?
C: Would the new goal to take down the captain? Taking down their defenses?
A: could be volunteers, randomly selected, etc. doesn't matter that much.
B: I would do a coin flip, where winner could either have first draft pick or sets first matchup.
C: not really. Goal should still be to get most wins as a team.
Finer points to decide would be following the first match, is it the winning team that keeps the power to select the next match, or the losing team.
A: doesn't matter that much You serious? This could be the biggest decision in the entire tourney. B: This still seems way too easy to take out the good bots in the first round. Which gives the opposite team a HUGE disadvantage. C: It was just a random idea. Sorry, but I'm against the captain idea.

Yeah I have them. Its just they won't Import for some reason.
No other bots crash my game when I Import them...
Edit: I tried even having them fight each other. Still crashed.
Edit2: I tested with a robot from a different bod and they had the same effect. So I don't have something that you guys have.
recheck your bindings, you probably have a tab instead of 4 spaces, or a misspelt bot name or something.
Nothing seems wrong with the Bindings. I just lack a component that both of them have. Edit #3: And it seems to be only these bots as I downloaded other bots too. P.S. Demon, why is Kestros in the DSL section? Edit 4: The only components I've downloaded are DSC's texture packs if that helps. Anyway, I might have to pass the host baton if I can't solve this.

Some very good stuff here.
My biggest issues are bronco's antennas and Wild Thing lacking any texture.
Otherwise, these are great.

Well I have Avalanches entry already, so now waiting on baconus.
Edit: Both robots have been received. Now I need to find out why they're crashing my game whenever I import them, and kick this match in gear.

This tournament is not under copyright by me. Feel free to rip-off this in every way shape and form.  DSL (And DSC color pack) IRL (Shut up)
HW
1 entry per person
16 entrants with 8 entrants per team. [Will increase if it fills fast enough(Up to 16 on each team)]
When entering a robot, you must say whether you are on team light or team dark, or you will be rejected.
CF and BFE allowed
Custom textures allowed
Banned bot types: Multibots,Swiss army, and SnS
Cheatbot2 dissallowed
No joke bots: I reserve the right to deny any bot that I think is weak or impractical.
I will also not be as lenient with the IRL like i did with Avalanche vs Bacon.
Updating robots is allowed until splash is posted.
Havoks will not disqualify anyone. Rather, I will restart until a clean finish is found.
Judging will be done by Aggression:(Amount of hits) Control: (The one that flew/was shoved the least) and Damage: (The in-game scoring)
My arena of choice was a bit different from the norm...  The league of champions arena from the RW mod is a large one. Flippers might struggle OOTAing... If you didn't catch it up in the rules, when submitting a bot, you join a team.
After sign-ups, each team will nominate one team member to be the captain of the team.
At the beginning of each match, the team captains will PM me which 4 robots will fight in the next match-ups.
This number will decrease to half of the losing team each round.
This will loop until no robots are left on one of the teams. I have chosen my team already. So know that I'm not favoring the stronger team. .png) Challenge I prepared for the worst. 7 bye bots in no particular order. .png) OCD2 .png) Legion .png) Ray VII .png) Launch Pad II .png) Meteor .png) Wreck Reloaded .png) Lost Cause Please refrain from telling others your team. Though I cannot stop you from PMing each other, I highly recommend you don't.
