Ugh
Fine, what do I have to do to my bot to make it IRL? Pointy Tips? Razors? What?

You wouldn't build it IRL because if you did it would be extremely fragile because of how the extenders are attached and how the Irons are attached to the extenders, one decent hit on those irons IRL and they would snap off.
Doesn't mean it can't be built IRL.

TRiaS, Your bot is unacceptable. Too many weapons.
And Vertikiller is acceptable? Anyway, what irons should I remove?
EDIT: Also, would like to state something. Did the judges at the qualifiers ever say to Hypnodisc or Hazard "Your bot is too destructive, try again" (apart from The Mauler scene, which was to do with damage to the arena, which isn't a problem in RA2)
Because Vertikiller looked what you could build IRL. Your bot looks just... I don't even know what it's supposed to be. for a HS, that is just overkill.
But you could build it IRL. A disc smaller, but similar to the shell of T-Wrecks and the body similar to TME.

8 razors =/= 12 irons
Razors > Irons though because they are lighter and Razors don't have normals.

twisted metal evo seems to only have two weapons on its disc
T-Wrecks. Had plenty of weapons on it

The point of IRL is not to make it beatable it's to make something that looks cool and realistic. Your's is neither.
But it is realistic. That kind of robots can be done. As for cool, I don't care about that, it's cool because of the weapon really.

It's not OP, because the champion can defeat it.
How is it not IRL, that's like saying any horizontal spinner is not IRL. It's really not that devastating.
Here's a full list of weaknesses:
  • Axes ruin it
  • Very weak armour (plastic)
  • Battery life isn't that good
  • Exposed Wheels
  • Weak to rammers, or anything fast and sturdy
  • Very easy to push about

And if you think my weaponry is as bad as it is, look at Last Rites. Do they say Last Rites is not IRL? Ofc, it exists. Sewer Snake can still push the bot about, as can others. It's not unbeatable, as is my bot.

At least that's a vaguely relevant topic to print. I've seen some print those topics in tech support that get 1 reply.
After reading this, I looked and:

No, I mean Jonzu might reject it for too many weapons. I only got 4 irons and 2 katanas, and I won the dang tourney.
But Weapons is its strong point, it has other weaknesses which can be exploited.

This is getting frustrating... Rules stay, There will no be changes
Come on Joni, you might as well change the rules. You lose nothing by doing it.
My Tournament, My rules. No offence. I don't want too many entries from United Kingdom. Otherwise the World Championship is full of them.
From what I've seen, only me, Kurt, RPJK and GF have expressed interest from Brits in the tourney (and I'm not even entering it)

Guest   01:20:20 PM   Printing the topic "MIGHTY NARYAR'S GLORIOUS MELEE - Season 1 - SIGNUPS CLOSED".

Who the hell even prints topics anymore? At least Nary has a fan though.

Not in Second/Third Championship. I'm following those.


Come on Jonzu.

Scotland should be allowed due to referendum on gaining independence soon.
Northern Ireland should be allowed due to being divided and not on British mainland
Wales should be allowed due to how successful some of the bots were.

Plus it would make some of us actually feel like we're doing it for the country. If its just UK then you might as well name it England.
Agreed. Jonzu, I'd say that for UK-based robots, you should at least state which areas of the United Kingdom each robot is representing.
 
There's more than just England, y'know.
Also agreeing, adding on that The Second and Third World Championships weren't very well run at all also, with it just being England vs USA in the second round, as well as JP revealing results, and the UK champion never made it and the Supernova/Storm 2 controversy in the 3rd.

You can't enter in two tourneys at the same time... Forgot to add that rule. Also MassimoV you're not african, so you can't represent any African country.
Fine, is the Carribean part of North America for you?
According to this, You're american. So you would be representing america.
There's going to be a lot of American competitors, so how about sections like West, East, North and South?
4 Entries per country. READ THE RULES ffs.

If I enter a bot in the World Championship would it be represented as Northern Ireland or UK?
UK

UK only? That's ridiculous. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are countries as well.

Possibly too many weapons?
It's weaknesses lie in its terrible pushing power and weak armour.
I've actually AI'd both Scarecrow and Brownstone and they were pretty much getting even W/L records.

He is Nigerian, didn't you know that? this is a joke btw

Meh, I'll enter New Blood. Sorry Kurt.
EDIT: Could there perhaps be more tournaments? Challenge Belt, Mayhem, Vengeance Battles, and All Starts for example? And we can only sign up for 3 max?

If you can't get moar razors, twist them about with the shift key until they fit together, that usually works.

I tried it with mine and there didn't seem to be any problems, it wasn't a 100% replica, but it was very close to it.
