Mech Madness is now looking for new applicants for Season 3! After a wild Season 2 successfully wrapped up under a new format, I made the announcement that entries will be accepted for next season right up until a TBA due-date. I am currently making some technical changes to how the MM edit of the RoboGames arena functions with OotAs and multibots; once this is complete, an end date for signups will officially be announced. But definitely start sending your robot design files & any AI to me as soon as you please!

And I rise! Like the water in an unnervingly clogged toilet!!

Most of my bots are definitely coming back. Mech Madness is the thing that got me into RA2, so I'm hella hyped.

It's great to see everyone interested in entering, especially newer faces! :)

I have read over the new rule changes multiple times and think that MM3 is now ready to begin accepting robot applications! I'm hoping to fix some issues I had with the RoboGames arena last time and turn the trenches into actual OotA zones during the next 2 weeks. When that happens, I'll set an end date for signups. Tentatively looking at the middle of October, though possibly later.

Wildclone be coming back under new branding, plus the frog army will be arriving into mech madness

Just checking are returning bots just same name or completely rebuilt? Just so I know what can do with wildclone.

Just PMed you. Even if something isn't acceptable as of yet, plenty of time to rework it.

Also, I'm kinda getting to these as I can. Mondays & Tuesdays are probably the days you won't hear from me until Tuesday night, because I'm quite busy with IRL work all day. :)

Well, now I gotta look in my RA2 folder for what I could chip in, maybe even AI since I'm having fun with some of the quirky .py files now.

I know exactly what I'm going to throw in here. Almost got everything ready too.
This can't possibly go horribly wrong.
