I get it from this.

Avalanche is a troll, other tournament hosts shouldn't have to suffer because of him especially if they have hosted other tournaments.

Avalanche has been a contributor for the past two years if not longer. You're trying to say you're better than him and that rule shouldn't apply.

Okay, you mentioned Click.

Let's look at BBEANS6 - he entered Bisector. Easily one of the coolest designs there. Apart from Blood Orange. ;) I'm joking..
But yeah, it's plain to see he didn't enter to win, as much as show off an AWESOME new bot. I think, anyway.
He always enters something cool, to say he wouldn't want to see his new bot do well is just stupid though, that's my problem... some of us tournament hosts actually build bots for our own tournaments just like everyone else to see how well they do, for us to be forced to show our entries when no one else needs to is just unfair.

Avalanche has never been a troll. He was a n00b, but hasn't been for at least two years.

And here we go again with "I'm special 'cause my name is purple."
Where do you get that from? I'm sorry if I want a fair chance in my own tournaments instead of just saying "here's my bot, build one to beat it".


Good job contradicting yourself in a single post.



The rule is there to prevent abuse. The rules apply to everybody. Past tournament hosts won't get special treatment.

Go back a few pages, it was discussed at length. When I enter my own tournaments I usually don't enter to win but I still want to see how my new designs in action, this rule makes it near impossible for me and other hosts to win anything.

I don't think a host should be competing seriously in their own tournament anyway.

In other words... Good. The host shouldn't even come close to winning their own tournament. Their bot should basically be a bye bot.


Why the heck should a hosts bot be a bye bot? are you serious? The hosts should stand just as much of a chance as everyone else! Oh sure let's get Click entering a SFTW in his own tournament because no one wants him to win...


what the heck has this forum come to, where there's a rule (according to you) against a host winning?
Well, maybe I shouldn't have used those words... A tournament host should never be aiming to win their own tournament.

There isn't a written rule against it,  but I'd be willing to bet that the majority would think it was incredibly gay for a host to win his own tournament. I know I wouldn't like it very much.

ACAMS doesn't even compete in BotM because he hosts it.

So the new host must show entry rule has caused myself to suggest a couple of new rules:

-The host can change/update their entry but must allow everyone else the option to change/update theirs and show the update/change in their topic before anyone else sends in their updates.
-The host is to post pictures of all entries as they receive them. (possibly in a constantly updated splash?)

I believe this clears up the update/change rule while allowing the host to be on more even grounds to everyone else.
No ruling on this yet? I still think it's unfair for hosts to show their entry.

It basically just ensures they can't build a bot to counter everyone else's. I don't think a host should be competing seriously in their own tournament anyway.

Looks like DiRT. Really cool though. I love demo derby games so I'll probably buy it.
Faaaaaar away from DiRT. That's the new version of FlatOut 1! :gawe:

**** yeah. I loved the original Flatout. The second one was too much like an arcade game.

So why do Jonzu and Kill have the same signature?
Well, the explanation is simple. Kill is on the left, I'm on the right.

Uh... Well... Alright.

I haven't noticed, but I'm not really a photoshop/paint.net extraordinaire.

The lulz when people make their things super huge to draw attention to themselves.

Mine was just an old signature I found on a jump drive. I literally opened the card, placed that, and uploaded it.
Pretty sure he is talking about Kurt Wylde and Linxus

Yeah, but mine is pretty big too.

Do you mean to make it so bots don't get counted out at all, or just get rid of the timer that shows up on the screen?

There's still plenty of perfectly good empty space up around MassimoV's name to put some.

I think there's already a version without the spinner somewhere, but I can't swear to it.


As far as the modding, there is probably a way to do it via Notepad++, but it's a fairly advanced technique, I believe.

Kossokoi: im old (not really) please inform me about the paint.net sensation

Paint.net is a difficult to use if you're already used to Photoshop tools and so forth.
