A tournament with a Difference ha returned in the form of "A Different Tournament With A Different Difference" Which will be just like ATWAD but will be with middle weights and this time there's a trick. The trick will be revealed soon and this tournament will begin march 1st!

We don't.

Also, if this involves any exchange of money or goods, then ACAMS will give this the axe real quick.

Ah yes, thanks for jogging my memory. I just remember there being something dodgy about the "difference" tournies but I couldn't put my finger on exactly what.

Post by: westisrocks on January 29, 2012, 02:07:43 AM: Right so basically, I feel this name is gonna get boring in 1 or 2 tournaments to so i want you guys to come up with the name for a future tournament and the winner with the most creative name will get a slight advantage in the next tournament AND will be mentioned in every video to do with that tournament.

Title: Re: A Different Tournament With A Different Difference
Post by: westisrocks on January 30, 2012, 01:36:58 AM: It's because i feel you are at a large enough advantage having won and getting second pick. Alternatively we can have the possibility of you winning BUT the runner-up would get first pick

A tournament with a Difference ha returned in the form of "A Different Tournament With A Different Difference" Which will be just like ATWAD but will be with middle weights

so this is not ADTWADD, but ATWAD with MW's... which incidentally is EXACTLY the definition you gave us for ADTWADD ? how does that makes sense ? is that just a name change to please your public ?
Title: Re: A Different Tournament With A Different Difference
Post by: westisrocks on February 22, 2012, 01:47:13 PM: No its not to please the public its to make processing it on my and and if i ever need it in the future easier. Anyway onto the groups:

Group A Group B Group C Group D
Shrederator Broke Mechavore Blood runner
Wheely big cheese Bulldog breed Potters wheel Hypno disc
Bad blood Vladiator Matilda Saber teeth
Supernova Hworf Firestorm Vengeance
Top dog Tornado 259 Lock nut
Pig sticker Red alert Heavy metal noise Vladiator poker

Think about it you will get to choose soon!

But it's so simple! The tournament is just like A Different tournament with a Difference, except that it's a different different tournament with a different difference, the only difference being the it's MWs, so it's not really all that different, but if it was different, the difference would be even more different than the last difference, which was totally different!

I do not like watching just AI'd matches as I feel it can be boring (as explained during atwad) Therefore I control each robot once and if it is still a draw I take it to full AI to make it fair
