It is quite a small community, though, in the grand scheme of things. If we have a guess that there around 500 million children aged 8 and under in the developed world (probably wrong, but I don't know where to get the statistics), then 9 out of 1000 equates to 4.5 million. Out of that, 11 is still not that much. So there's every chance there's a greater concentration of people with some form of Autism on the forums simply through luck. =)


True, eleven out of 4.5 million isn't that much. However, when you factor in that those eleven are out of thirty to forty or so active forum members, than it is a bit odd that we have such a high concentration (after all, we should have over a thousand forum members judging by the statistics).

You know what, GTM has at least 11 people with autism (that includes Aspergers). According to epidemiological studies 9 in 1000 children aged eight and under (and I don't think Autism manifests itself after age eight) have autism. So either a). some of you are lying or b). this forum attracts a large number of autistic people.

I bet NFX is using FBSPlus, which can lag a ton depending on the AI settings (and lags a little no matter what).

Somehow I get the feeling it's not as fearsome as its namesake though... those motors and tribars look pretty vulnerable.
 
Also, a true AC would use 36 maces.


Actually, your second line of text answers your first line. The reason I didn't try to get 36 weapons is that they wouldn't be on flails, making them suck in the damage department. So instead I went for the 24 razors on flails and got a bot that can rip opponents to shreds (such opponents include Hope No More and other powerful popups), which is more similar to the behavior of the stock AC.


I'm not sure are Tribars good idea. They're quite fragile.


Would it be Absolute Chaos without them?

SnS is unrealistic: those razors go right through the wheel.

From IRL realistic to unrealistic, here is my entry for Steel Warzone:





Air Conditioner (lets see if anyone can figure it out... it's pretty obvious) is an HW HS with 24 flail razors on four Perm 80s, with NPC fasts for drive. The bot is invertible, and can deal out massive damage. As is obvious, the bot was supposed to be a tribute to Absolute Chaos, and not a maximum efficiency monster.

Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Oh Jesus...

Congratulations Naryar.

You are one of the few people here that have nothing to fear from me, old man.


It is not about what you may do to me, it's what you might do to the others. :P

Ummm... S_M, I sent you an updated version.


EDIT: *Facepalms* I missed the preview video. Never mind, you have the correct version.

Shooooot! I have my bot ready, but I forgot to enter it! I blame procrastination. Could I send it now? I completely understand if you refuse, seeing as it would complicate everything.

EDIT: Woops, seems this tournament is farther along than I thought. Ah well. My sincerest apologies for not getting my bot in on time, seeing as I had a free place and all.

Also, WTH?  Urjak stole my bot!


^This! I never entered an LW. Freezies must have put my name on the splash by mistake.

Where does the name "Epitaph" come from? My friend on steam is called Epitaph.

Otherwise, Bots look great, like always.

Since I'm not getting too many more entries, and I'm starting to get into a time crunch (btw, when does my time to finish this tourney end?) should I just do 4 LW and 4 SHW?

I think you should allow builders to enter two bots in different weightclasses to fill up the brackets. I've got a LW bot I could enter.

I don't think I can change the rules like that...


Well, seeing as you aren't really changing the rules of the tournament as it pertains to structure, arena, or bot requirements, Joeblo might allow it. Why not drop him a PM?

So, will Nary send his bot? Will anyone else build? Who knows?


You might just want to do a 16 bot bracket (double elimination perhaps?) with a two bot wild card (16th and 17th entrant).

It's a bit unfair on powerrave considering his bot just span in circles.


Agreed. Regardless of what you may choose Niscan, I would not be at all upset if you redid the match.

Thanks for the all the positive comments you guys.

Should still be able to knock this aside if I can spin up.

Looking at your bot, it would be a classic Nightmare vs Son of Whyachi battle. :P
