Lawl no. I'm not sure about LW, they're just so small and stuff, I want some all-out destruction.
Nary did give me an idea that wasn't really anything like his for another tournament that might work one day, dunnooo. (A tournament where you can enter 2 LWs as a tag-team or 1 MW XD)

Tournament Archives / RIP3 Signups!
« on: May 31, 2012, 06:23:43 AM »



Let's do this!


RIP3 is all about Clusters! Except there is a few twists...
1) One part must be LW, the other must be MW
2) The 2 parts must NOT be the same bot type
3) Popups and Flail weapons are NOT allowed.
4) I want a THEME! Even if it's just related bot names, I want to see themes, complete with Team Name and optional Motto!


Full Rules
1. DSL Clusterbots, 1 part LW, the other part MW.
2. No popups or flail weapons
3. Standard DSL building regulations, all realistic, with no outside modifications. No cheatbot2 components or custom components.
4. Double Elimination bracket, 2 mins on clock.
5. 1 havok restart in matches. I will judge this, and I politely ask for no complaints
6. Unless you send your own AI, I will AI it so that the weapons work and it moves properly. I politely ask for no complaints if your bot does not work how you want.
7. I have the right to disqualify any entry finding loopholes, or excessively complaining.
8. The arena to be used is a reskinned Containment Cube with hazards on
9. Placeholder bots are not allowed, however you get 1 upgrade (as long as it's not overly different)
10. There is a maximum of 32 team slots.
11. You MAY team up with someone to create your cluster.
12. You will have 2 weeks from signups opening to get your entries in.
13. Any non-filled spots will be automatic passes for those the randomizer favours :P
14. 1 free restart if either of your team's bots is stuck on arena hazards (eg stuck on/under spikes) - I will be judge of this.

I guess after this list we'll have way more than 100 so we'll just shorten it down somehow?

Calypso was entered in RIP1, it was Queen Calypso that won IRL Tourney.
Also -shameless plug time- I would nominate Fever (As NFX did), or one of the Orange bots, just based on the whole spawning clones thing, as no-one had really done anything like that layout before, as far as I'm aware. And Fever did awesome.

More of JB's stuff needs to be in here - maybe Iron Outlaws, Blitzkrieg or something utilizing the whole Octane glitch thing.

Make special 'commemorative' versions of all the major RA2 tournaments, all to be released that day? I mean, for the tourneys run by people who aren't around anymore, someone else could do them. I'd volunteer to do one of either my own or an old-school one, I doubt my own are really big enough, and a mini-RIMP wouldn't work :P

lets meet around bristol or somewhere

Sounds good. Make sure its hot, so I can pop lame 140 base power fire type move jokes as much as possible :D

Bristol ? Isn't there permanent Drizzle or something there ? So you can say goodbye to your 140 ?

Cause I went there when i was 14, I think. Was gloomy. At least i got an awesome game (Homeworld) at a bargain price in there.


The mighty Naryar has visited our lands? We are not worthy!
Nah, Bristol's a lovely place...
Got driven there by a drunk woman last week on a whim to watch Iron Sky :V

I'm not sure the wheels are the issue. I can imagine the front is just sliiightly ugly.

Won't having the axle mounts like that really hinder bots going up onto the weapons? But I love the weapon system, I like to do that on my non-competitive, non-showcased stuff, just to flip and hammer, etc.

Aha, someone knew where I got the inspiration for the srimech from ;D
You win a cookie! *hands over tasty cookie* :3
The rest was totally a mixup of Crasp, X-terminator and a little Behemoth.

Waitwhut?


I've missed Craspy. Tit3.


I might remove the bursts for the side thingies. It's not too IRL and it's not that useful as a side srimech, especially when they're curved anyway.

If TF2 was in a movie, I'd like it to almost be a cameo - like the characters of the film shopping at a 'Mann Co' supermarket, where there's a weapons stall with only 1 Heavy or something at it, and a hat stall which is crowded like heck :P
