OK So this is an idea for a tournament.
We all know how in real life, roboteers have times to change there robots a little bit before a fight, well this tourney will let you do that! Before every round, you will restart the building process with your originally sent bot, or re-optimize the bot that you sent the round before.
Rules:
1. All bots will be DSL HW
2. Realistic Rule applies, and it will be very strict. This includes super stacked weapons (For example, HNM 3.2 would be disallowed because of the weapons stacked so tightly. This will be at my discretion).
3. No BFE (This includes chassis lowering), AAM, ZeroG, secret hax armor, or anything else outside of the bot lab besides skinning
4. No cheatbot2, cheat, or AI parts
5. No Trovaner Chassis Glitch, and No using skirt hinges as armor
6. At time of entry, all bots will have a
weight minimum of 675 kgs and a weight limit of 700 kgs.7. Within one week of when I say to send, every builder in that round will send me a new bot, which can weigh up to 800 kgs. If no bot is entered, the builder will use the original. I will not accept bots early, or late.
8. Uses of extra weight: Optimize Wedges, Add/Change Weapons, Add External Armor, or Change Wheels. You are not allowed to use the extra weight for: Adding Motors, or Adding Chassis Armor. You are not allowed to change the Control Board, Change motors (not including Metal Hinge and Skirt Hinges), or Remove Titanium Half-Sheets attached to Baseplate. You are allowed to move the control board and batteries within the chassis.
9. AFTER CHANGES, THE BOT TYPE MUST STAY THE SAME10. If any bot is not sent by the end of the week, or the builder has not sent a legal bot by the end of the week, the builder will use the original sent bot.
11. You can also choose to use the same bot as a past round, just say so. Although saying in a PM would be better so the opponent doesn't know what you're entering
12. I will film with CAMstudio, and I can provide AIing sklz, but I would prefer that you AI yourself.
13. The arena will be the BBEANS Tournament Arena V2, hazards on.
14. NO AI WHINING
15. The original bot sent to me must be mobile
16. For simplicity, multibots are
not allowed17. Any entering user must be an active member who has stayed active during their time here. I don't want anyone joining and just leaving.
18. In the case of a havok, the match will be restarted once, and the second will be a forfeit of that match. You get one free restart per match. Each havok forfeit of a match will be counted as 1 loss. If you get two losses, you lose the battle. I will film all three fights anyways.
19. Each fight is a battle of a best of 3 matches. 1 vs. 1
This tournament is designed to have the builder gain a competitive edge on your opponent, while he can also do the same onto you, just like in a real tournament.
There will also be a losers bracket.
I am looking for this to be a proof of concept type tournament, so to make it simple, I'm planning for this to be only 8 Bots.
I will be entering as well.
Tell me what you think and I will add what I need if I need to when I need to if needed.
