Alright, I'm going to continue to use Bandican for the time being. I'm trying Fraps and It's giving weird issues when recording. But that doesn't matter, what does matter is that I'm going to upload the first rounds of the Eliminators, so stay tuned.
Edit: Elimimator Round 1 & 2 are uploaded.

Redace, how much RAM does your computer have? I was using a 1GB netbook back when I was doing my very first tourney (that being 4-way HW rumbles) and it was hell to sit through each 10+ minute match. No clue, I'll have to check.
It's a bit late now, but just saying that if you do "Robots in Space 2" or anything, you should consider making it MW or LW to strain your computer less. I was thinking that if it gets popularity.
Also consider closing any RAM-consuming programs such as internet browsers, steam or skype before recording matches. I can send you FRAPS as well so you don't have to have that bandicam watermark on the top of each video. Noted. Also, that would be nice of you send Fraps.
Uh, qualifier 2 says I built Keznar.
>.< I'll fix that.

Loving the videos section good job.
Thanks. It was a small little gag I had in the Display tournament. Speaking of videos, I got the qualifiers recorded and almost finished with editing. Those might be uploaded around tonight.

Shouldn't there be 8 qualifier matches since there are 24 robots?
Fixed that. Thanks.

Red: Lost Hammertime vs. Plutonium vs. Overloaded Orbinaut 4*** A rather good way to start the tournament off. A quick, but pretty interesting fight. So Overloaded Orbinaut 4 is better aginst popups but Plutonium was built for HS. Hammertime will have to pray something goes in his favor. Plutonium wins with 2 KOs. Rather simple, Plutonium attacks OO4 then KOs it, attacks Hammertime, then KOs that. The end. *** Pretty high action for this fight, but it just barely missed the 4 star rating. The SnS was built for a rumble format to whack anything against it, like rammers and VS's. Will the SnS have a predictable outcome, or will the other two create something different? Crime Against Humanity 2 wins with 1 TKO, i ran out of bot names gets 1 KO. Keznar and iroobt did most of the dirty work and the Hazards do make this interesting. CaH didn't do much in the fight oddly enough. *** Tri-Tip has less weapons than Two Octillion Gigadollars, weighs much less than Two Octillion Gigadollars, and is much slower than Two Octillion Gigadollars. Um... yeah, Tri-Tip needs to hope for a Havok Forfeit. Thug in space is better, but still might stand no chance. Two Octillion Gigadollars wins with 2 KO's. Yep, just as I thought. * *sighs* I'm not kidding guys. This match drags. I mean it's one thing to have lag, but to have it in a match where robots travel slower than snail mail makes for a boring match. Luckily I edited it so you don't have to experience seven minutes of this, seriously. Anyway, Disastrous recipe was built for rumbles in mind with the 360 degree hammer ans protection on all sides, Red Extender Protectors has spinning armed tribars with weapons and cheese has 2WD. Let's see how this goes. cheese wins with 2 TKO's. cheese got lucky as it was fighting DR, because DR has the flippers throw him away while cheese has one wheel left. REP (*snickers at acronym*) has redbird drive and low power, so REP wouldn't move away in time before it got counted out. Ouch. **** A quick but pretty awesome fight. There was some high intense acrobatics in that one. It all comes down to speed and wedgyness of these bots. WB stated that Vrykolakas has good wedges, but you never know. Vrykolakas wins with 2 TKO's. Wow. That wasn't expected at all. Pride got flipped early on and while DM6 mined at Vrykolakas, it got tricked into the flipper for it to lose. Pride also tried to self-right but fell for the same fate. *** Rather destructive in the battlefield. Pins and Needles and Carbonate better settle a truce to attack Devil's Rosebush III or else it'll be the end of both. Both have the speed advantage of Devil's Rosebush III, so let's see if that matters. Devil's Rosebush III wins with 2 KO's. Looks a truce would have been worthless anyway. Carbonate lost it's weapons from Pins and Needles then was KO'd by DRIII. Pins and Needle's had the speed part down, but HS still can beat pokers. *** Hex 2 was featured in ASAI and while testing it, those wedges are good. The 4AM Bot is slow and and doesn't have as good of wedges as Blood Shed or Hex , but it will depend on who boxrushes who. The 4AM Bot wins with 1 TKO. Blood Shed gets one KO. What just happened? Blood Shed sneaks behind Hex 2 and KO's it and drives up the wall ramp and immobilizes itself. That's what happened. **** Lot's of twists and turns in this. pomf=3 is a tank and will deflect both Yeti's and Mr Punch's weapons. They better hope something good happens. Yeti wins with 1 KO and 1 TKO. Mr. Punch got Yeti early on and pomf=3 circled them, but Yeti KO'd Mr. Punch on the rebound while pomf=3 gets flipped out by the flippers. WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO THOSE DAMN FLIPPERS!?! Devil's Rosebush III vs. Crime Against Humanity 2*** A deadly 36HS vs. a deadly Trinity/HS SnS.Which one will have the upper hand? let's find out. Crime Against Humanity wins with 1 TKO. The destruction is nowhere to be seen. Why? The Flippers. Once again, ouch. **** This match really has bots sky rocketing like they're in the outer limits of space--Oh wait. But seriously, kinda entertaining match honestly. Vrykolakas is built to fight rammers with the VS design, but not all of it's attention was primarily for VS though with the HS design. It's also got some exposed area in the front that Two Octillion Gigadollars could take advantage of. Will that matter? Two Octillion Gigadollars wins with 1 TKO. Some havoks occur early on, but that doesn't cause Vrykolakas any real problems. While TOG took advantage of when the Vertical Spinners got destroyed. But as Vrykolakas was hanging on for his life with the last of his chassis HP, the flippers give Vrykolakas a BIG leap upwards and Vrykolakas didn't quite stick the landing. Maybe this is why there hasn't been a tournament with the Starcore Arena. *** cheese got really lucky in the first round. Will that luck carry on against one fast Rammer/HS? Plutonium has no protected bottom, so cheese might have a chance. Plutonium wins with 1 KO. It was simple, Plutonium rushed to cheese's sides and tore a wheel and then destroyed the chassis. *** These are two bots who caught a lucky break in their first round with some unlucky fighters who probably would've beaten these two. The match is simply a popup vs. popup battle. Nothing else needs to be said. The 4AM Bot wins with 1 KO. The wedges on Yeti weren't good enough to get under 4AM Bot's wedges. Devil's Rosebush III vs. Vrykolakas** I didn't really see much in this match to begin with, it isn't too bad. There is some exciting bits here. Anyway, Vrykolakas was actually in a rock and a hard place, If he won, he would've faced Crime Against Humanity 2. But this might've been the better matchup of the two. Will Vrykolakas pull through? Devil's Rosebush III wins with 1 Havok Forfiet. Yep, havok made this match a little uninteresting. Vrykolakas lost it's VS weapons and jumped out the arena, twice. Can't say much else. *** A nice quick popup vs. popup fight. 'Nuff said cheese wins with 1 KO. Looks like the wedges on Yeti wasn't good enough. Crime Against Humanity vs. Two Octillion Gigadollars**** This is a very bizarre match, in a rather entertaining way. Crime Against Humanity 2 hasn't fought much in it's previous matches and only got an obligatory hit in those matches. However it's against a bot that can charge extremely quickly at Crime Against Humanity 2. Let's see what happens. Two Octillion Gigadollars wins with one KO. TOG hits CAH right off the bat and turned on it's back, but it can still spin. Yet havok really went nuts in this by pulling TOG like a puppet on strings. They didn't cause anything major though. Then after a couple hits, CAH stops spinning leaving it ready to be counted out for immobilization. **** This was also a good match, somewhat close too. Plutonium has already beaten cheese, one of the three popups in the Eliminators, but this popup isn't as good as cheese, so let's see if that makes a difference. Plutonium wins with 1 KO. This fight wasn't as one-sided as you would think, 4AM bot got under Plutonium and pushed him into the hammer, but as plutonium held on from yellow warning light, that's when things go down for 4AM Bot started taking damage to where it got KO'd. Devil's Rosebush III vs. The 4AM Bot*** The 4AM Bot is now up against an it's first HS now. Devil's Rosebush was made for popups with the amount of armor on the top and bottom. Can 4AM Bot pull through? Crazier outcomes have happened before, so let's see what happens Devil's Rosebush III wins with 1 KO. 4AM bot knocked off a weapon motor of DRIII and got it's weapons stuck for a whole minute, but once it got out, the flippers got some time to attack and while 4AM bot was going to attack DRIII, it got jammed in the flipper and got destroyed by it. The flippers must really hate everybody. *** Crime Against Humanity is deadly when it spins up to gyroscopic speeds, so cheese better find a way to exploit that or else it'll be turned to shredded cheese in no time cheese wins with 1 KO. Well, SnS's do have a tendency to not work when the popup tries to attack, but this is new. Usually CAH spins up to speeds to where it's a havok bomb, but cheese stopped it and kept on him and KO'd him. We got ourselves an underdog right here. Devil's rosebush III vs. cheese*** cheese defeated Crime Against Humanity 2 with little problems, but with a very dangerous HS for his next match, only time will tell what will happen to the shallow wedge of doom. cheese wins with 1 TKO. Quick and simple. The flippers made short work of DRIII as it bumbled out from the flip. Surprising and very annoying that the flippers are beating more competitors than the actual competition. Plutonium vs. Two Octillion Gigadollars**** This fight was very destructive and pretty close, but it just missed on the fifth star. Two Octillion Gigadollars has done a pretty good job making it this far, but it got some pretty lucky matchups. Now it's facing off against something that's as fast as TOG and something that can counter the ramming weaponry. Can a rammer make the finals? Plutonium wins with 1 KO. It was destructive indeed, TOG kept ramming Plutonium and knocked off the horizontal maces as TOG barely had any weapons left. Not only that, but 4 wheels were taken off of TOG making it even harder to defend itself against Plutonium's ramming spikes. As TOG got closer to the hammer, it got smashed and then drove up the ramp of the hammer and immobilized itself. *** cheese's run so far is pretty gouda. Plutonium turned it into de-brie, but it's having a Munster of a run in the losers bracket. Alright, I'm done with the cheese puns, but Two Octillion Gigadollars is a rammer and cheese is a popup. Can cheese make it back into the winners bracket or will TOG finish it off? It's a popup vs. rammer battle, what do you think will happen? cheese wins with 1 KO. Nope, not even a rammer could beat the sharp cheese (okay I lied, I'm done for real now.) cheese got under TOG and attacked it's underside and removed a ramming rack and then flipped it on it's back. I thought for sure TOG would be able to move while inverted, like in it's previous battles, but something must've gotten under TOG and cost it. Plutonium vs. cheese (Rematch)***** This is it. The final battle! Plutonium has already destroyed cheese early in the brackets, but cheese made it all the way back to the final. They've been through some tough competitors, but who will take the glory? Virus Bomb or Badnik96? cheese wins with 1 TKO. Plutonium drove on cheese and flew off like a speed bump, but he struck back by attacking on cheese's front, but cheese drove near a wall and when the weapons finally fired to attack Plutonium, he ejected Plutonium out of the arena. Giving cheese the win. Hold on! Plutonium needs to lose twice since he was undefeated. So can cheese pull of another victory, or is cheese's streak gonna end? Let's see in the second match. There's no going back after this. Are you sure? cheese wins with 1 TKO, again. This time cheese pushed Plutonium near the hammer and knocked one of the spinners on Plutonium. He starts to bumble around and cheese pushed the bumbling Plutonium near the ramp right out of the arena! Pride v. MR. Punch 2 vs. Overloaded Orbinaut 4*** This is a good rumble. That's all I have to say. Pride has the Dual chained weaponry, Overloaded Orbinaut 4 is your typical 36HS, MR. Punch 2 is a very underweight popup, and Thug in Space is something else. Lots of things happening here. Overloaded Orbinaut 4 wins with 1 KO. Pride gets one TKO and MR. Punch 2 gets one KO. Pride attacked Tis and punted him out and Mr Punch got Pride while distracted on Tis long enough to KO him. Mr Punch tried to attack OO4, but got destroyed while attacking. *** A rather interesting match actually. Blood Shed is heavily armored and is a popup, it all depends on how good the wedges are compared to Hex 2. pomf=3 has way more armor than any other bot here and Carbonate has gotta hope something good happens to him to win. pomf=3 wins with 1 KO. Blood Shed gets 2 KO's. Blood Shed, like the popup it is, made short work of the rammer Carbonate. while that's happening, pomf=3 and Hex 2 are brawling each other, Blood Shed attacks Hex 2 and removes it's drive and then destroys it. Blood Shed then attacks pomf=3 with a good chunk of damage done to it while pomf=3 still has the spike armor. To make things quick and short, Blood Shed takes pomf=3 on the flipper and Blood Shed is unable to self-right since the impact of the flippers took of the wedges and the ability to self-right. Looks like I know what to do to update Blood Shed next time. ***** This is truly a great battle. Lots of destruction and action here. It was also at a decent length even with lag. Two bots got screwed by the flippers here early on in the Qualifiers. The other two lost because they didn't do well enough. Diamond Miner 7 has the juggling acpability, Disastrous Recipe has great defense, Keznar has giant discs and Pins And Needles is a poker against these three bots that aren't popups. Let's see how this goes Diamond Miner 7 wins with 2 KO's and 1 TKO. DM7 and Keznar attack each other early on and bring the fight closer to PAN and DR to where they go to one of the hammers. This is when PAN gets KO'd and DR and DM7 fight when Keznar gets stuck on the ramp. DR gets tossed out and Keznar gets free to fight DM7 and since the wedges are inferior to DM7, Keznar gets KO'd. *** No matter what, Kungfooey will lose since both of his bots are in the same match. But we shall se if playzooki's rammer can put up a fight against Thyrus's servo HS. Red Extender Protector wins with 1 KO. i ran out of bot names gets one KO. (I don't know about Tri-Tip in this case.) Tri-Tip got on the flipper and flew out of the arena not wanting to be a part of this tournament anymore, while iroobn destroys Hammertime. While that happens, Red Extender Protector inches towards iroobn and knocks of a ramming rack off. iroobn takes a few weapon motors off, but iroobn gets destroyed anyway from the weapon rack falling off not protecting itself. Overloaded Orbinaut 4 vs. pomf=3 vs. Diamond Miner 7 vs. Red Extender Protector**** After a harsh loss from their qualifier, they won a match against four and will attempt to gain redemption, will Badnik's Badnik pull a victory in the battlefield? Will 090901 gain his luck back after being robbed from the hazards? Will The Ounce's prediction of losing be proven wrong and show what Diamond Miner 7 is really made of? Or will Thyrus the underdog prove himself worthy? All will be answered Rumble Final. Overloaded Orbinaut 4 wins with 1 KO. Red Extender and Diamond Miner 7 get 1 KO each. Welp, Badnik won two championships now. (This is a small issue with secondary entries now that I recorded this match.) It was helluva match as things were happening from all four bots, Diamond Miner 7 pinned pomf=3 on the ramp of the arena and was counted out. OO4 dealt a lot of damage to DM7 and REP finished it off and the remaining two duke it out. But it was inevitable as OO4 destroyed REP a few seconds later.

If Redace or Virus Bomb could throw their flame rammers up on the botexchange I could prove or disprove my theorycrafting, but as it stands right now flamethrowers likely won't be allowed for MO2.
I wasn't planing on entering it anyway, but here you go: https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Exchange/MW/RedAce_Torment.botAlso, playzooki does have a point, you say AW and BW 1WD is banned and MW HW 1WD is, yet the rules on the original post haven't changed that.

And with the Rumble and Final uploaded, this tournament is now finished! Special thanks to the creators of these bots that were used in this tourney. Congrats to 090901, the champion, pyscolone, the Runner-up, and Badnik96, the Rumble Winner! About those grudge matches requests. Those might take a while, but I might do em if I get enough requests. However, I got a tourney on my hands where they are filled up, so let's get that show on the road now why don't we?
