Stock replica's aren't that bad Venko, there were plenty back in the day.

Very nice bots, does the child's play style bot beat child's play regularly?

I'm not trying to force anyone to do anything they don't want to, games are meant to be fun however they can also be challenging and stock has a high learning curve that when you stick to it you feel more accomplished when you create something great.
You guys could make these stock tournaments:
1. Noob wars.
2. IRL stock.
3. Random component list (from a hat) type tournaments.
4. Stock replica wars.
Then you don't need to learn glitches and such (except with #3) and more parts could get used.

- The bot/bots MUST NOT have any Collision meshes outside of the Max sphere or other any arena spawning problems as well; I'm afraid I don't understand what that means...
In stock you can snapper load stuff way out the right side from a snapper far to the left and swing it around, creating a huge bot that extends outside the max sphere. This causes problems when you try to load the bot into an arena as it could spawn partially outside of the walls. Venko beat me to it >.<

DSL shell spinners all look the same too, so do other DSL bot types and many DSL components aren't used in tournaments etc. I just think IRL and the standard DSL realistic building factor are mostly attracting people who don't want to be bothered learning stock glitches.
Stock seems like it lacks designs because:
1. Click and FB aren't around much at all to showcase new designs.
2. Venko likes keeping his best/most unique bots a secret.
3. No major stock AI pack has been released in years!
4. A lot more innovators have slowed down or ceased posting (such as Sage).
Perhaps we need a gallery of inspiration, where people can post concepts and we could also post innovative designs from the past.

I will most likely be holding bonus time-out battles between rounds depending on if I have enough time. I want to hold ultimate rumbles (just like the one in ACF but 16 entries this time) for each weight class with all bots from that weight class being given random entry numbers.
This will require a lot more effort, but hopefully with enough time and encouragement I will be able to squeeze them in.

New designs don't need new weapons.

4th most in stock O.o
I will say was most popular in 2009 and DSL in 2011.

I'm trying to make that style of weapon effective, one of my HW's has a rotating disc with motorised weapons drilling downwards.

It's been around longer and still "Dying" because it's producing much less now than back then (currently producing much less then DSL). Not all bots are uploaded for both.
DSL has more recent topics (it's been like this for some time now), more posts in showcases (click the little dots to max out all showcase numbers on the first page of both stock and DSL), more bots on the exchange and more tournament participation.
You can't deny stock is far less popular and stock needs a boost. Perhaps it's due to no more Starcore AI? Maybe INFAI will give it a boost?

Pretty strong team, seems like the AW and LW are the weakest out of the bunch with one counting on opponents having an exposed front and one has an exposed front.
