A random arena? Building restrictions?

If you need a prize or an arena, I'll do it. :D

No, I'm not putting restrictions on anything. I need another type of twist. I just can't think of what.. And I'm perfectly capable of making prizes. :P

Once I've got some time free in summer (Kind of busy with Year 13 Schoolwork and University Searching at the moment), I might take the time to learn how to AI, and maybe even host a tourney.

It'll probably only be a small one, but if it gets off the ground, hopefully it'll at least do better than CHAOS IN THE TORPEDO did    :approve:

You could continue BTTB, but the other way round. Like, you could make Stock rebuilds of someone's first DSL showcased bot.

I wonder if I'll get another flipper to do if this goes ahead.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Why not do 2nd showcased bots?

Also, who wants Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweights?

Sure. Its a very different tournament style. It's also a little fun.

Is taking one challenge request. First come first serve. I'm a bit rusty now but I'm going to try and crank something out for this. MW and up no glitches DSL or Stock.

He might've won, but alas, Little Lost Bot never found his way home.

I see what u did there. =P

I think Chinese Whispers seems like quite a good idea. I'd probably put myself up for it if I'm not too overrun with uni stuff.
