Sup guys. Looking at an idea for a tournament in which there's regional qualifiers.
Just wanted to get an idea of how each pool would look, so if you can, leave your region below. Thanks!

Can't say I'm a big fan of the shift to reduced weapons/burst. I'd actually think the DM4 types went pretty well, despite a grand final of mainly verts (but thats usually ra2 regardless). I think the reduction of bursts has a crippling effect on flippers which people are always preaching about how they need a buff or w/e.
I think going with a flat power cap on bursts is a good shout. Kinda reflects a PSI limit in actually combat robotics. As for the rest, I actually like the LW side event, think its pretty cute. I'll be sure to either put 2 microvore discs in Veorra, along with entering Pulse and a LW 148
Contests / Re: BOTM Changes going forward« on: September 29, 2019, 11:49:12 AM »Do they need to be showcased before being entered or can they be showcased afterwards? The reason being I thought BOTM was supposed to be sorta anonymous so that ppl genuinely voted for the best bot rather than choosing a vet over a noob or something like that. If they are showcased before then everyone will know who made what.I think at this point honestly people can more often than not guess who is who correctly. I'd rather have the website continuously by showcase use than just for the short time of guessing who built what, if you catch my drift. It shouldn't be about WHO built it, it should be about what stands out the most. Checkmate, no one guess ha ha now your blind. 149

Sup folks, figured I'd update this with my recent adventures into AWS59.
Unfortunately I didn't have my own entry however, I did co-drive Yeetus & Retreatus: Haha Yeah Man, Chad again. So that was pretty cool. I'd took control of Retreatus, the one with the pink ears. Hopefully, I have Veorra setup for the next one! Key points of the event: (Spoilers) Timestamps (Again, spoilers) Link for the stream that happened for the event 155

I was working on something a bit more out-there but I was just tearing my hair out so I built this instead. Fairly unremarkable but clean at least. Downloaded the IRL drums specifically for this in order to make the perm protection look better. 2 perm 80s, dual NPC fasts for drive. Not Tommib Edit: I dislike your wheel placement. In or out, please pick 158

I gave this some thought after talking with Orc about it.
I think it might be a good idea to have a ranking system, in which tournament placments award X amount of points, the higher you place, the better. at the end of the season, you could take the top 8/16/32 or w/e and use that as your tournament entries. The issues I have with my current thought is maintaining the ranking system, originally I was looking at having all forum contributions awarding you points, but that was probably too much to handle |
