If I don't explain stuff that well, then I apologise for that.
Main Rules:DSL 2.2 - Strict IRL
CruiserWeights (399.1-600.0KGs)
I am giving 1 month for signups. This will either increase or decrease depending on signup numbers.
24 entrants are allowed in, with one entrant per person. This will increase to 2 entrants per person after 1 week into signups.
I am capable of AI'ing your own robots, but I am not that good at AI'ing, so I would highly suggest that you do it yourself.
I reserve the right to disqualify your robot for any reason, including if it is seen to be tryhard or if it is not IRL enough.
If your robot is rejected, then you will not get a spot reserved. You can, however, attempt to enter as many robots as you can until you are accepted.
In the case your robot is first accepted, then your robot can only be modified or changed once, so be careful with your entry.
Building Rules:All robots can have either wheels, treads or shuffling pods for locomotion. They must, however, show controlled movement.
--Wheels and treads provide no weight cushion, but shufflers gain an extra 100 KGs for use.
----Shufflers can not use weaponry on their locomotion and at least 200KGs must be used on the shuffling mechanism.
The nature of the tournament means that SnS'es (both standard and MeltyBrain) are banned.
Clusterbots/Distraction Robots/Drones are banned this time around.
Your robot can utilise modular weaponry and setups, but they must not deviate that far from the original design of the robots.
--Be warned that I will give you a certain time limit for you to make your choices. If not, then I will decide your robot's setup, so be careful.
Both versions of the DSC IRL pack are allowed.
Cheatbot2 is completely banned.
BFE and CF are allowed for aesthetic purposes.
All of the in-game glitches are allowed.
Battle Rules:Each of the 24 robots will be randomly split into 6 heats of 4, where they will then be drawn into 2 groups of 2 where the robots battle each other.
The winner of each set of 2 goes on to the Heat Final, where the 2 robots have to battle until someone reaches the Grand Final.
The 6 robots then fight in the Grand final, where the robots will compete against each other in 3 groups of 2. The top 3 robots from each group will advance to the True Grand Final, where the robot who wins the battle wins the tournament.
I am not disqualifying robots for havoking. In the case of a havok, the match will be restarted until there is a match with minimal havok explosions.
The Scoring System:Points will be gained based on the overall prowess of robots and how well the robots do in the events.
Whoever gains the most points at the end of the 4 rounds will go through to the Heat Final/Grand Final.
Points System For All 4 Rounds:Round 1: Dummy Destruction:
25 points for each Flip Test Dummy taken out.
25 extra points for all FTD's taken out.
1 point for each second left on the clock after all FTD's are taken out.
Round 2: King Of The Hill:
20 points for the first competitor on the hill.
10 points for the second competitor on the hill.
1 point for every 20 RA2 points gained on the hill top. This score is rounded down to the nearest 1 point.
Round 3: Sumo Basho:
1 point for each second on the ring.
Survival gives 75 points.
A victory gives 100 points, plus 1 point for each second left on the clock.
Survivals and Victories do not factor in the points gained from how long the robot has been on the platform.
Round 4: Duel:
100 points for a victory.
50 points for a victory that goes to a judges' decision.
The matches will take place inside the RA2#T2 Tournament Arena.
Each robot has 2 minutes to take out 3 Flip Test Dummies by any means necessary.
25 points are given for each dummy taken out, with 25 extra points given if all dummies are taken down, plus extra points for each second left on the clock.
The match will end if the robot somehow manages to get immobilised. Points will still be given out depending on how well the robot has done, however.
Grand Final Only: The robots only have one minute to destroy all 3 dummies as fast as possible instead of 2 minutes.
The matches take place in the Hilltop.
Each match lasts for 3 minutes.
Both robots battle each other to gain the most points possible.
The first robot to make it to the hill gains 20 points, while the second competitor gains 10 points.
For every 20 RA2 points gained by a competitor on the hill, they gain a point. The amount of points gained is rounded down to the nearest point.
If a robot is eliminated, then the match ends automatically. Points are still given out to the competitors, however.
Grand Final Only: In addition to the main competitors fighting, there will be 2 annoyance robots made by me. These robots will serve to distract the others from the main objective, but will not gain points. Here is the image of the annoyance 'bot used.
Each match takes place in the ClawTop arena.
The match will last for 1 minute only.
Each robot has to face off against The KillDozer, who will serve as the robot to take out or to survive against for as long as possible.
For each second on the platform, the robot gains a point.
Survival will give 75 points, while a Victory gives a robot 100 points plus extra points, with one point for each second left on the clock.
--The points gained from how long the robot stays on the platform are not added in the case of a Survival or a Victory.
Grand Final Only: The robots have to fend of 2 KillDozers instead of just 1 for as long as possible.
The matches take place inside the DSL Tournament Arena.
Each match lasts 3 minutes.
Quite simply, each robot has to fight against each other. The winner gains 100 points.
In the event that a judges decision needs to take place, then I will be deciding, based on Damage, Control and Aggression. The winner only gets 50 points in the event of a judges' decision, however.
In order to keep impartial for all judges' decisions, I am not entering my tournament.
The Heat/Grand Final matches take place inside the Ring Arena.
The matches have no time limit, meaning that the robots will have to continuously fight until one remains.
The 2 robots who scored the most points in their groups go through to the duel while the losers go out for good.
In the event that 2 robots tie in their heats, then they will both go to the final. This only applies in the heats, however.
However, in the event that 2 robots tie in the Grand Final, the robot pairings will have to battle in the Duel again. The loser of the duel goes out for good.
The winner of the Heat Final goes through to the Grand Final. The Grand Final winner, however, wins the tournament.
Grudge Matches between robots can be requested inside the arenas that are used. You can fight whoever you want to, but there will be one grudge match per person.
An end-tournament rumble will be hosted, where all of the competitors fight to see who is the rumble champion.
--Each match lasts for 3 minutes in the Ring Arena.
Finally, awards will be hosted once the tournament finishes. The awards will be revealed once we get to them.
Green: ReadyAmber: Received and accepted, but not readyRed: Rejected (PM will be sent regarding what is wrong)
