DP
The first two battles are now up. I'd embed the videos, but due to YouTube's updates (I guess) I can't figure out how to get it working properly. If someone can tell me how to fix it, then let me know.
Also, brackets will be updated very soon, so watch out for spoilers.

 Here we are now. Sorry for the longer than usual wait. Had to take care of some things IRL, but we're good now. - 1 vs 1 match format - 2 minute length matches - Best 2 out of 3 - Double Elimination Bracket - Ring Arena (Reskinned)- If a robot havoks once, costing the match that bot who caused it gets a free restart, If it happens again, that bot who caused it will be disqualified - Judging will determined by the damage points at the end of the match Restart Rules:More than one of the below criteria can happen and not penalize you. If once, that bot gets a Free Restart. If Twice, that bot will forfeit the match if any of the following criteria occurs: -Havok Restart: The bot does a Havok Explosion which costs the match for it's opponent. -Second Chance Restart: If the loss was from being pinned, (i.e. getting stuck for a reason) But I will only restart if: - A)It has controlled movement.
- B)It has enough battery life for it to actually matter.
- C)The control board warning is not is on yellow or below.
If none of the above is met, then the first match will be the final result of the match.

well, that was an embarassing defeat. at least my bot fought to the end. ah, well, didn't spent enough time on that wedge.
besides, the tournament was always a single elimination match tournament AND THEN IT BECAME RUMBLES SUDDENLY AFTER THE BUILDING OF BOTS.
You didn't have to build a stilt bot for a rumble. :/
Yeah, sorry about that. :/ But anyway, editing not that bad, really the only thing I'd really improve is taking out those moments where nothing interesting is happening, rather than just speed it up. That's really it though.

Did you delete a team in that was sandwiched over the last team? Cause if you do that, the game has some weird issue loading the proper bot. Don't do that and clean up the team's in the game if you want to fix this. I apologize for the improper choice of words. If you are still confused, then I'll put up a visual guide on how to do it. I can't exactly do much on mobile.

And with that, the last trios are in and signups are closed. Thanks for those who entered, and sorry to those who couldn't enter. I'll get the splashes and such ready, but it might be a few days before I get everything ready, so please be patient.

Alright, I think some of you heard me say this in the Skype chat, but I kinda wanted to put this here too. if i'm one of those people that sounded "ungrateful" when I posted my initial thoughts, then I apologize. I do not want to bash octopus tree since they are a new blood of publishers. I was annoyed with the "birds eye thing" that occurs in the bot lab and that when I try to move a point on my chassis, for some reason it moves the point about five more points away from where I wanted to be. it just got on my nerves so much, that I had a hard time trying to cope with it. but really, there's a lot of potential in this for when it's official (I think) release comes out. yes, even for early access standards it shouldn't happen in the first place, but I still see potential in the publishers, and devs, to make big hits that can compete with aaa titles. and this could actually help the publishers (and devs). it can help them learn from their errors so that they know what to avoid so that they don't make fatal errors in making their next big title. again, i don't want to sound rude or annoyed. this was the sequel to the game i probably spent more time than any other game (i know, i'm sad and pathetic) and i just felt pretty disappointed in the end. i apologize if i sounded awkward or arrogant originally. And after reading the message the devs sent out, I just want to apologize for my arrogant message review I sent out earlier. No hard feelings, and good luck with the update when that comes around. Oh, and I hate to deviate for a small off topic thing but, I need to address something quickly... Guys.
2016 will be the year that gaming died.
Oh no. Three game franchises are doing unsuccessfully. Clearly, gaming is doomed in 2016. Seriously, I can name a lot of great games that came out this year and were successful. Really, I feel that I would have to look pretty hard for some really bad titles. Maybe I'm out of the loop, somehow missed the news about Konami last year, but I still feel 2016 for gaming is going strong. No offense to you, dude. Okay. I'm done going off topic with that. I just needed to get that off my chest.

How we looking for team numbers? Is OP updated?
I'm sorry, but could you be a tad more specific? Honestly, I can't tell exactly what you mean from how you worded it. I might be missing something obvious, but oh well.  The list thus as of now is updated to match what I currently have if that's what you're asking. Also, received Fracture's Ironforge bot to complete his and KK13's trio. All three bots are accepted. Will AI soon. I also put myself on the list, but in case I magically get nine more trios before the deadline, I will remove myself immediately. Oh yeah, you guys have about 2 1/2 hours left to send something to me. In the meantime, I'll get the last trio AI'd and get the splashes worked on.

Is anyone else's camera constantly snapping back to the birds eye view in the bot lab?
Very frustrating
Yes. Thank you. I'm not the only one having this issue. And oh my word. I mean, I'm not sure if I can blame the Early Access thing. I've spent about 40 minutes on this thing, and I'm kinda regretting the purchase. I haven't gotten much on the fighting, but I cannot build crap in this due to not only the birds eye view thing, but the wiring, the building in general is just bad. I'll spend a little more time on this before giving an official review, but thus far, I am annoyed with my purchase.

Okay, now I did say that signups would be closing today, but I guess since Fracture needs at least one more day, I'll move the date to 12:00 AM EST on May 27. This also goes for anyone else who needs this time. Take advantage of this last day opportunity. Please.

Uhh guys, this really isn't the place to discuss streaming stuff.
But anyway, while I'm really not very fond on games going into early access, I can see the reasoning on why they made that decision and perfectly understand. I'll take their word for it when they say that it's only for a few weeks to take care of the problems that they couldn't finish. I mean, I just hope it doesn't in early access for too long, at least, as long as games like Rust or Day Z.
Also, I've been skimming through the bot lab guide, and it seems building might not be as bad or uncomfortable as I initially thought. Still not entirely sold on it, might need to wait tomorrow to really see if I'm right or wrong, but it seems they have some confidence in it.

Got the last few teams AI'd.
Oh, and to quickly remind people that you got about 13 hours left (slightly lied when I said you had two days yesterday, but that was me not knowing how to calendar). This'll probably be the last warning.

Is the deadline Wednesday night or Thursday night?
Deadline: 12:00 AM EST on May 26, 2016.
But I guess in this case, it might as well be tomorrow. I mean, I guess I can extend it for another week if enough people are fine with that.

Forgot to mention this, but I got a good chunk of the trios AI'd. I might take care of the rest I currently have tonight or tomorrow. I also have Kid_Krusher13's bot, who I assume is on Fracture's team based on the comments. They are still waiting on their Ironforge Builder to complete things.
Also, You have about two more days left to enter. If you still want to enter then do it quick. Or if waiting on your partner(s), then tell them to hurry up and send something.

Here, have some bots. Enjoy their genericness:  MW Last Rites with a Mechavore disc. This thing just eats anything in it's way and is ridiculously fast, and this thing is running on NPC norms.  SHW Whyachi Walker thing. I'm only assuming SHW walkers are allowed to weigh 1600 kg with at least 400 kg used for the walking mechanism from Battlebots rules. I mean, when's the next time there's gonna be an IRL DSL SHW tournament anyway? It's probably the only time it's going to be used for it anyway, if one happens that is. It's fun to mess with, and it's kinda quick... for a walker anyway. now to ai the rest of the bots for tot 2

why didn't you tell me i could've fixed the arena skin so it matched the new logo
Ah well, at least this gives S_M a slight chance... or at least it would be if we weren't against the popups.

Alright, so I guess it's kinda obvious. The deadline is set. It won't be extended, so please enter now before it passes. This also goes for any incomplete trio.

Some of you guys may know this if you're in the GTM Skype Chat, but I was planning on announcing a deadline soon. How soon? I was thinking the day of RA3's release. Before I make it official, should I wait a bit longer or is that fine for everyone?
Keep in mind, if you don't say anything, I will take that as a "Yes we're cool with the deadline. Go for it." If you do have questions on why I chose that, then ask away.

So, would a large amount of minor swears count towards the foul language rule or would it be any amount of major swears?
Other than that, I think it's clear, helpful and solid. Thanks.

Alright, so the pilot is now done, I guess I can give my thoughts.
Ultra Violent vs. Son of Whyachi vs. Creepy Crawlies:
As if it wasn't obvious enough, I can only describe it as Son of Whyachi's training session. I'll leave it at that.
Blacksmith vs. Basilisk vs. Gemini:
I feel shocked that some team actually made a useless hovercraft thing to compete as a "minibot" since that was going to do jack squat to begin with. As for Gemini, I was confused as there was only one half of Gemini moving and the rules stated that if one half of the multibot team was gone, the whole thing was done, or was that rule changed. Wasn't shocked that Blacksmith won. The only bot that wasn't doing something dumb or gimmicky (for the most part) and actually did things.
Mohawk vs. Invader vs. Lycan:
I was actually legitimately shocked with the result of this one. I was also hoping to see Megabyte Invader advance, but sure enough, it sorta pulled a Moebius and killed itself by losing a drive chain. Also, I don't understand why Lycan would think of attacking Invader when it's dead in the water and and still kill you. I wasn't sure if Mohawk was going to win at the start, but if Invader Zim wasn't gonna win, Mohawk would be the next best bot in the melee.
Bad Kitty vs. Scorpios vs. Black Ice:
Not sure how to feel about this one. I mean, with Bad Kitty experienced from building VD6.0, You'd think that you wouldn't make the same mistake as to put a decorative paper mache coating (or whatever it is). But I'd consider them lucky they got beaten in a much less brutal way than if they were against Son of Whyachi or Invader. I... wasn't quite sure what Scorpios was thinking getting itself jammed up stuck in the screws. Didn't think Black Ice would pull through, then again, it was kinda a battle of weaklings, so I'd be impressed by anything at that point.
Overall, still pleased and shocked with some results. Still annoyed by the fact that the previews spoil some winners and how some matches will turn out, but I don't think it was that major this time.
