As he felt the life drain from his body, he could not help but think that he had made a crucial mistake.
As he dropped to his knees she asked him one final question, her curiousity had thrived in the back of her mind for years.
"Where did you get those scars from?" she asked, her voice breaking from sheer horror and intrigue
He began to weep softly as he dropped to the floor, his last breath drew near.
"These scars?" he said quietly, almost as if the question had offended his being.
"I got these scars-" his sentence cut short as his body began to shut down.
She cried "I need to know! My whole life i've wondered and you've never said so much as a word, don't leave me here like this!"
"The scars" he murmured "I got them from, from.."
"FROM WHERE!?"
"The memes" A tear rolled down his cheek as he drew his last breath.
"The fresh and spooky, memes, I-"
His lips relaxed and his eyes faded shut.

9-Iron.

there is only one rule i'm kinda annoyed at, and it's the NPC fast limit, cause that will make most bots have very average speed (unless you go for E-Teks but they're so big and unwieldy), not to mention that NPC fasts starts to smoke upon the most insignificant impact, so IMO that rule should be removed

Regular NPCs are good enough. Plus you can have 2 NPC fasts and 2 regulars, which is more than enough speed for 4wd.

I actually meant to allow 2 in the first place, I just got distracted and accedently put 1. When I'm out of the hospital I'll put up the interest poll.

There's not enough space for a flipper, unless I BFE'd it which I might do. And as far as skinning goes, I don't think I could make it any more slick as it is now. I might build some simple bots to practice skinning on.

Why no flamethrowers ?

i like the beater bar nerf but it should be only for drums, and maybe shell spinners.

Flamethrowers usually aren't very effective IRL unlike in the game. And I don't want to overcomplicate the beater thing.

You ban flamethrowers for effectiveness and nerf beaters for the same reason (even though I understand the beater nerf), yet allow the MOE motor and judge burst who are horribly overpowered by other motor/burst standards ?

There are no other motors that have the same look as the MOE motor, and it's heavy so it does have some balance. Judge Bursts are allowed to give flippers a fighting chance.

so... cheatbot2 parts allowed are only judge burst and moe motors?

Yeah. I could probably change that up though.

It's not bad, I think. Maybe a bit tall for a flipper.

It's not a flipper... but it acts like one. It's so ridiculously fast that instead of carrying bots and slamming them into walls, it flips them.

Would like it even if it was a simple pusher

Well it is a pusher but not quite a simple one.

If that entire top setup flipped up Behemoth style it'd be the coolest thing, but it's probably not viable.

Yeah probably not and it wouldn't be very practical due to the speed.

I think it looks really cool. Needs a skin though.

Looks pretty cool.

Looks pretty sturdy.

Thanks guys.

I've injured my wrist so in order to pass the time I'm starting an IRL DSL2 tournament. Arena will be the Compactor Arena (by I Like Tacos). This will be at least a 16 robot tournament.

Brackets
Standard Double Elimination brackets. Higher ranked builders will get the bye spots if there are any.

Rules
- This tournament will be in DSL 2.1
- No flamethrowers
- I will be AIing, but I have the right to ask you do do it yourself
- BFE is allowed if it's for realism/aesthetic purposes.
- Nobody can be entered until a bot is received and accepted
- The weight class will be Heavyweight
- IRL STRONGLY ENFORCED. No exceptions, no weapon spam either. Obviously overpowered robots will be declined. It's not a difficult rule just keep with the spirit of IRL.
- The only glitch allowed is the small chassis glitch.
- Arena hazards will be off
- Bots must pass stability tests.
- Walkers and Shufflers will gain a 400kg weight bonus, but at least 200kg must be used on the movement system.
- Matches are 3 minutes
- No custom components
- 1st havok, restart; 2nd havok, your bot is eliminated
- No custom armour
- No Trov Glitching, Hax Mode, or any other unrealistic glitches that enable an advantage.
- Multibots are allowed.
- No titanium sheets attached directly to baseplate (Including half-sheets)
- If a bot is out of control for 30 seconds it is eliminated (if a bot is just randomly bouncing around the arena, in counts as being out of control).
- You can upgrade/change entries as many times as you want before I've AI'd and done splashes for it.
- Entries MUST be sent via PM
- M.O.E Motor is allowed (one max)
- Judge Burst is allowed (two max)
- Only a maximum of 2 NPC Fasts allowed
- Interchangeable weaponry allowed
- Emergency flippers will have a 50% HP boost
- Beater bars will be slightly nerfed as like last time

Judging
I will judge solo on the following criteria with the exception of weaponless flippers:
Damage /10
Aggression /5
Control /5
Condition /5

Weaponless flippers will be judged on this criteria:
Aggression /10
Control /10
Condition /5

Scores aren't split, meaning it is possible for each bot to get any amount of points.
