You would make a good mod, you're a n00b smasher.
I wouldn't say that if I were you, if I was a mod, you'd have probably had a temp-ban during the major flame-wars last week (either that or FOTEPX, depending on reactions to the threat of temp-banning atleast). Besides, I think JB seems to be getting sick of it all judging from some of his comments during that time. Infact, actually that would coincide well with these aparent changes... Edit: Nar's may well be right, I may be too harsh if I was a mod, but then, some people argue that the current system's too soft, so, meh.

If you're worried about the potential rule changes Nar, I'm starting to think I should be aswell.
I can't help it if I find beating down idiocy fun, and most of the time (when I do it IMO) it's deserved.

I think it's awfully cheap, though as an intellectual and deliciously amoral person I should congratulate Clickbeetle on abusing loopholes for fun and profit.
Sigh, i should just get RID of all my standards and morals altogether, then build new ones according to logic.
Good luck with that, but as I've said before, you will inevitabley fail. Ofcourse, if you were to try and rebuild your morals on more "evil" standards, you'd be a lot closer to your goals in the eyes of many...

It's clever but naughty isn't it? The bot itself is realistic, but it's tactic isn't

Well now it looks like we need some with a bot that can to either just get hide up a bit to get hit by the blade or brute power to ram the arena bade hard enough to hit Hide.
Nice tactic but I see easy counters there EG a flipper with a long wedge.
All the flippers will follow it through though and get hit by the blad anyway, and then get distracted by seek enough for hide to, well, hide. That said, i'm still dubious of seek, I swear that thing must have some very dark secret, it seemed like the more mysterious one  And looking at the splash again, there's only really one bot that's as thin as hide, and it's built badly and by a moron

The middle post doesn't have a collision mesh, so robots fit right underneath if you make them thin enough. No BFE required. And there IS a loser's bracket, so 123 isn't out yet.
Goody! And I thought it was the arena, although shouldn't that post be in spoilers considering there's quite a few people offline who won't have seen it ;P Edit: like thyrus Infact no, I shouldn't laugh at your misfortune there thyrus.

Dear Click:  I honestly laughed out loud and said genius when I saw hides tactic, all along I was looking at the bots themselves and completely forgot to account for the arena, a mistake I won't make again. Although, i'm dissapointed that you had to knock 123 out of the competition  And can anybody explain to me how it gets under the blade in the first place? Is it just the way the arena's been made then?

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea to me.

How the hell hasnt sparkles been banned yet.
What'd I do now, stick up for FOTEPX? That's so mean. Ban me imidietley.
Sparkey, I very much suggest you stop this behavior.
As an admin, I know some things you don't, and listening to other people, you and FOTEPX are the two larger shards in the feet of this community right now.
We are suggesting to TOUGHEN the rules and I don't especially like that, but if it becomes necessary, then so be it.
No offence intended (although I doubt you would be offended by this), but I would have thought you would have been for a toughening up of the rules. Don't suppose you can elaborate a bit on what this toughening up might be?

Well the term "DSL realistic" is pretty much the same thing as what you meant by half-realistic.
But seriously, is anybody stupid enough to actually think that all the bots in the showcases deemed realistic can be made, fully working IRL.

I KNEW you'd make a thread for this as soon as I read your last post  Here's the bottom line, RA2 was never, and can never be fully realistic. It's just the way the game's evolved that some things are regarded as "realistic" and some not. Besides, it all seems fair to me as long as the rules for "realism" are mostly constant (which they pretty much are). Also, it's not like people get punished or hated on for building realistic bots, infact in some cases they get more praise.

If you can point out a decent reason as to why it's unrealistic, then this is definately the place for it.

DC hasn't
Trosen robotics Hasn't
FRA hasn't
I'm trying to stay out of that now...............If I see it happening I'll just walk away and take it like the pushover I'm apparentley supposed to be.
Nobody ever said anything about being a pushover, just stop starting them.

it was a usefull bump though.
It was an on-topic bump, that's as far as it goes really.

Yeah, being histrionic, narcissistic or dependant ain't a good thing.
Atleast the others can be manipulated to be beneficial.

In what way is it unrealistic?

I imagine that his job's already paying him, otherwise he'd have probably stopped working for them.

First thoughts are that it was harsh on "avoidant", but then again, it does kinda make sense for me.

It looks like a roller though, it's even got the thing on the front (I forgot what it was called though).
