Orc's Wars: Series 3

OW3.jpg

IT'S SHOWTIME...and we're finally going OFFICIAL baby! Many thanks to Hoppin for once again helping to make the logo for this tournament! :heart_smiley:

FORMAT AND RULES:
112 robot places for Qualifiers, only 56 will qualify for the main series of OW3! If more than 112 bots are submitted then I will be choosing what gets entered. No robot is automatically guaranteed access.
Qualifiers will be 4 way rumbles with 2 bots advancing from each one. Main series format is based on Battlebots 2018, ending with a 32 bot bracket!
SEEDS FOR OW3:
DSL-IRL
Reskinned RW 2016 Arena
3 entries (not counting seeds) per person
Rules:
I reserve the right to deny your robot for any reason!
Signups will open for a maximum of a month. If 168 bots (yeah I doubt this will happen but putting it here in case) then sign-ups will last for one more week from that point. Basically: signups will end either in a month or a week after it hits 168 robots...whichever comes first.

Entries so far: 128/112 - Main Goal Reached!
                     128/168 - Extra Goal

Same deal, my entries may be nice to look at but boy they are as bad at fighting as a Hoover is good at sucking.
Let me tell you something I learned through life... The weakest link in the chain isn't always the failure point.

I can't wait for this great tournament. Anyway Orc, I think you should add battle rules, like the format for tourney, and then what will you do with the battles

36 robots entered into OW3 so far, I've updated the original post with a spreadsheet showcasing what bots have been noted down! I've sent people messages if their bots were rejected or not! Keep the bots coming guys! :mrgreen:

Sorry for the delay guys: my computer broke down so it's currently being repaired! I'm on my laptop at the moment which is why I've been a bit slow...but we've hit 87 entries! I've updated the spreadsheet accordingly: if you've been thinking about entering then you may want to get a shifty on! :mrgreen: Thanks guys!

We're past the 100 bot mark...well just barely! :mrgreen: 11 spaces left for our main goal of 112 bots but that doesn't mean submissions will close! Keep sending guys, thanks for the support! :heart_smiley: Updated the spreadsheet again!

Keep it up, people. Only about 20 extra players away from having the most builders in RA2 history.

Instead of demanding users to make more bots for OW3, Why don't you make an entry yourself?
