As I see no loophole than some smartass rule lawyer will possibly bother us with in the future...

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #2 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:20:49 PM »

Will be entering.

Naryar · « **Reply #3 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:23:37 PM »

I will probably be entering as well.

powerrave · « **Reply #4 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:25:28 PM »

You know I'll be there to win. I aim to go all the way in the LW here.

Preytor_4 · « **Reply #5 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:26:56 PM »

I'm winning this time.

NFX · « **Reply #6 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:28:07 PM »

I'll try to get something in for this.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #7 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:32:47 PM »

YES! NOW I HAVE SOMETHING TO BUILD FOR!

G.K. · « **Reply #8 on:** November 11, 2011, 05:42:57 PM »

'These are the rules, they can not change.' is not imposed yet, Naryar.

Also, Freez, you technically aren't a major league tournament host yet because you haven't PM'med me saying the tourney is finished. :D

Luckily I have common sense however, bumping you up now.

nicsan2009 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 11, 2011, 06:14:23 PM »

I'm entering all 4!

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #10 on:** November 11, 2011, 06:19:26 PM »

Although, upon looking at the rules again, it'd be nice if the Judge/Lifter motors were allowed for realistic flippers and lifters. The regular DSL burst motors are just too pathetic for the purpose.

Why does no one ever add the feature to remove your vote, I sneezed as I was clicking and chose the wrong one.

Sure thing, mate

Naryar · « **Reply #15 on:** November 11, 2011, 06:40:27 PM »

Damn, I really wanted to say this though. But yeah. This is discussion, we can chance the rules before signups, my bad.

no judge bursts. Elsewhere everyone's gonna use them.

Not really, Nary- in Replica Wars, I must've been one of a few to use them. I think the same attitude will more or less apply here, only really used by those who want to build flippers. Typically in these IRL competitions, you get lots of spinners instead.

nicsan2009 · « **Reply #17 on:** November 11, 2011, 07:18:57 PM »

Allready have an idea of what to build for Lightweight division

freeziez · « **Reply #18 on:** November 11, 2011, 08:07:29 PM »

Judge Bursts are not allowed.

End of story.

Is it alright if I move this to Signups since I don't think there's any fault in the rules?

NFX · « **Reply #19 on:** November 11, 2011, 08:07:59 PM »

Besides, flippers in enclosed arenas suck, Naryar. You even said so yourself, so there would be no incentive to use them.

I reckon Judge Bursts should be allowed, but in moderation. One Judge Burst is easily enough to lift a Middleweight, so there's no need to do what GRW did in RW3 and have THREE Judge Bursts on a Middleweight. That would just be absurdly overpowered. One Judge Burst for LW and MW, two for the HW and SHW divisions. I reckon that seems reasonable.
