superbot's entry accepted. i forgot about hoppin's bot, but his entry is good too.

REMINDER: if 3 more people enter, that will fill the bracket (without need for me entering) and signups will close regardless of how much time is left.

wen's update and playzooki's bot accepted. have some questions about superbot's entry, so it's on hold for now.
on account of having a busy week this week and the signups not being full, they will be extended for one more week. no more after that. though.

august 20th is the absolute deadline.

entries received from click and wen, but both are momentarily on hold. i have some questions about wen's bot (already pm'd him about it), and click's bot is fine, i'm just waiting on him for AI since he said he would send it.
keep the bots coming!

made a bot for reier's online tournament. need to know if i should keep it as is, improve it, or scrap it all together.

uses the biggest sickle. starts in the closed position because it's a grabber, and uses the beta motor because that was the only one with a decent amount of force when closed

Why is this your last tournament? And how do the Steam gift work?
Life is getting busy and I haven't been active much recently anyway. For the prizes, I'll just PM the winners with the codes. They enter the codes into steam and get the money in their steam accounts.

Building Rules:
-HW Stock 1.4
-No BFE/AAM/Hax Mode/etc.
     -Ro7 break is allowed. All other uses of RA2CF are not
-Bots that have their drive designed to break off and SnS bots are banned. Multibots are also not allowed due to tournament seeding format.
-All robots must show controlled movement via at least two powered wheels
-AI parts/140cm extender/blue snapper/etc. are allowed
     -Recolored components are allowed. If you use them, let me know which pack they're from. Do not recolor components yourself unless you've already made them available to the public.
-No cheatbot2
-After sending your robot to me, you may update it only once, and only before signups close.

Tournament Format:
-1v1 single elimination main bracket. Any bot that gets knocked out of the main bracket will still be able to compete in a losers round with the same format as Revolution 2, minus the lives system - it's just survive to the end (reminder on that system: two bots fight, the winner stays in to fight another bot, the winner of that stays in to fight another bot, etc until only one bot is left). The order the bots enter will be based on seeding. Here's a visual representation of the bracket:
-16 entries (1 bot per person)
     -Virus Bomb is allowed two entries if he wishes (from winning Revolution 2)
-Arena will be a reskinned DSL Blade Arena with the arena hazard toned down.
-3 min time limit, Bo3 matches in main bracket except for the final, which will be a Bo5
-Seeding will be done by randomly splitting the robots into 4 different 4-way rumbles. Depending on how they do in those initial rumbles, they will be placed into another rumble to determine their rank. Here's another picture of text to explain:
-Havok restarts will only be done if the havok explosion is game-changing (as the host, I will determine what is considered game-changing). Any robot that causes a havok restart twice within the same round will lose their match / be eliminated / get last in their rumble, if the havoks happen during the seeding rounds.

Other:
-I can AI, but it is preferred that you do it yourself. That being said, no cheaty AIs. If I AI your bot, you may not complain unless I have made an obvious mistake.
     -No meltybrain.py
-Signups will be for two weeks OR until 16 entries are filled.
     -I may extend signup period by a week if needed, but do NOT count on this happening. If you are interested in this tournament, please enter as soon as you are able.
-I will be entering ONLY if all 16 spots are not filled by the end of two weeks, and I will compete with this:
- Please keep your robot names/skins family friendly. I have the right to reject any robot that doesn't.
-PRIZE: This will probably be my last tournament, so I want to make it count for whoever wins.
The prize for first place is a $20 Steam gift card code! 2nd place will get a $5 steam code.
I checked with geese on this a few months ago and he said this was fine, but if things have changed since then, let me know and I'll see if there's something else I can come up with for the prize.
