Chatterbox / You should build one: Skibike
« on: October 17, 2009, 12:22:17 PM »
There's a park where I live that used to be an open pit coal mine (basically a big crater) that makes for decent tobogganing when it snows in January. A couple of years ago, someone had a skibike there and I tried it out. It really was a lot of fun.

Going on with the continuing theme here, the front really dosen't look sturdy. Other than that, it's lookin' good :)

I do recieved 6 teams for v2 for now. I am planning to get 10 teams in by myself, but please enter more (R0B0???). I'll aim for 15 more builder teams.


I'm working on it, don't worry. I have mabye a couple bots right now. I'm not happy with a lot of the stuff I've been building recently though, but I'm confident that I'll be able to get at least one team together.

ROBO has gone pink (err not expecting that one :P)


Light purple >:O

From that, the competition level looks to be really good. It should be a very interesting tourney.

That totally looks NOTHING like my half of my RAW 2 team :3

Seriously, it has the same wedges, same number of razors, and almost the same setup too. Mine's chassis is just slightly different.

Not one robot past the first team works. Every time I try to fight one, I get a runtime error, and RA2 shuts off.

I feel like I've gone over this before, but the thread where I posted my rant on this seems to have been deleted (or I just can't find it). Anyways, here's what I think:

To me, many people here seem to be jumping on the "I-hate-InfiniteInertia" bandwagon because, realize it or not, it's cool to hate Inf. It's not. Before I hear all of the "but he flamed mee," and "he said i wus stuupidz" there's one thing that you guys (a good 99% of you) need to learn: you are not just given respect, it is something that you need to earn. Around here, that means becoming an excellent builder and making contributions to the community, as well as posting in a polite, orderly manner. Under these criteria, I think that InfiniteInertia deserves much more respect that he has got the past little while. He is one of the top builders that we have around here, and he has designed bots for SCv4.0, released a re-vamped version of stock (Re-Stocked), is working on a second AI pack, and has nearly finished hosting a tournament (Brawl of the Builders).

I can see what you're thinking now, and yes, I agree. He's a troll most of the time. I also think that he dosen't mean or want to be. "Blunt" and "direct" are probably the best words for this, but think of it this way: the words that human beings use to communicate account for a mere 6% of our impressions of what is said. The other 94% is stuff like speed, tone, body language, etc. To you reading this right now, I might sound angry or even defensive. I'm not, and I can't help what your impressions are of this. Really, I'm just trying to help all of you guys, but that probably wasn't what you thought I was doing. Being blunt and direct works in real life, but not over the internet. Many times, it sounds agressive and accusatory based on many things (attitude towards the poster, content of the post, topic being discussed, etc.). With all this in mind, it's not that hard to imagine this situation: Inf posts in a thread, someone misses the point and retaliates (retaliation is almost always an obvious personal attack), and Inf, seeing the retalitory post, can't figure out why someone's flaming him and fires back.

If you don't believe me, the next time someone posts something that sounds like it's a flame at you, don't post right away. Do two things: 1) Try to think what else they could mean by it. Read it in different tones, and see if any others could work. 2) DO NOT RETALIATE. It's the retaliation that starts the flame war, not the provoker. A simple "I'm not sure I follow you, could you please explain?" will work 500% better than a retalitory comment.

I guess what I'm really trying to say is that the people that are on the "we-hate-Inf" bandwagon are at just as much fault, if not more, than he is. You can never expect someone to respect you unless you respect them first, so don't count on anyone to be nice to you. You can only control what you say and how you come across to others, so make it good. No one's going to hold your hand on the internet.

A couple of last bits of advice: Inf haters, just stop it now. It's just stupid to hold a vendetta over the internet. And to Inf, being "blunt" and "direct" dosen't work well over the internet. Consider how people might take it before you post.



I feel like I'm a damn kindergarten teacher here...

Feeblemind's AI dosen't quite work for me. It will seek out a place and start spinning, but it won't stop even when it's being counted out.
