splash and brackets will be up today
Erm...no, that's not the LW I entered. I entered a different robot with the same name, it's in my showcase.
Why isn't my LW in the bracket? I sent it when I sent my other bots.
Have to admit, I could have had a better draw.
So many DSL bots that have been slightly IRL'd...
LW Brackets confuses me... I don't see "Stampede" in the LW Splash.
So many DSL bots that have been slightly IRL'd...What about my two?
LW is just a stock vs in dslSo many DSL bots that have been slightly IRL'd...What about my two?
Woops, I meant my MW =PLW is just a stock vs in dslSo many DSL bots that have been slightly IRL'd...What about my two?
You're against Drumbledore.Thankyou.
Scrap's bot (the one that bumped me out of the LW bracket) is nonexistant. Who replaced him? It should be me (with Infestation).

Tell me why the heck Masterath is in my LW spot. Until Scrap's nonexistent entry was "sent", I had the last LW spot.

Also, if you take a proper look through the Signups thread, FOTEPX dropped out of the Heavyweight bracket so I could take part in it, after Ounce bumped me out with his reserved spot. I can understand getting Watch Your Step! wrong, but putting my name in the splash to a robot I didn't even build...
All things considered, this hasn't really gone too well, with regards to getting all the bots sorted and such. freeziez, please hold off from filming until you've got this <expletive> sorted out.
You let Badnik in because he BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW`d like a bitch instead of a decent builder like Masterath? Who earn`t his placeshut up and go away
Good move, Nar.
I wonder if he means havoks that alter the course of the matchup. Like in BBEANS, when that robot got its entire weapon rack got taken off with a havok. Thought if that's what he meant, then he should have said so. I was wondering why there wasn't a havok restart as well.^This^ and IMO it did alter the match. You were suiciding onto my disc when you havoked. Then you managed to get round me due to conveniently flying off.
To be honest, there's bound to be a few problems - effectively, Freez is running 4 entry-level tournaments at the same time. I commend him for keeping on top of it all. In fact, have a +rep.
Don't know how the combat side of things is going to go considering my draws, but I think I've done alright in the realism aspect, as have several of the others. I think that's good to see- that crap entries like Garvin's are not going to be tolerated this time around.No offence, Boss. But why are you still bawwing over Garv?

I wouldn't consider it bawwing, personally, it might be that he takes IRL building quite seriously, but Garvin entered by far and away the least IRL robot ever submitted into an IRL tournament. It was basically a substandard DSL bot, and he got the last spot in the tournament, meaning GF93 couldn't enter with what he'd built. When he saw what it was, he was appaled - as we all were - and a few of us went so far as to call for his robot to be removed from the tournament, and replaced with GF93's. Eventually it went ahead as it was, and Garvin lost in Round 1. I think that's kind of what sparked the recent "restrictions" on IRL building. They're not really proper rules, though.
But he should be able to do pretty well here. I reckon his bots look quite good, especially with the way all the stuff matches up on the heavyweight. Touches like that make a good IRL robot into a great one. =)
I'd rather lose in the first round and win a best looking bot award :gawe:However, now people just bend the rules to try and win.Don't know how the combat side of things is going to go considering my draws, but I think I've done alright in the realism aspect, as have several of the others.

I'd rather lose in the first round and win a best looking bot award :gawe:Same here. Though there's no harm in going for both. =P
On another note, how does my MW look compared to Mike's? I'm really not expecting to get through.
^Now that's the spirit.^I'd rather lose in the first round and win a best looking bot award :gawe:Same here. Though there's no harm in going for both. =P
Shame on you for using hinge wedges yourself though, mate =P^Now that's the spirit.^I'd rather lose in the first round and win a best looking bot award :gawe:Same here. Though there's no harm in going for both. =P
On another note, how does my MW look compared to Mike's? I'm really not expecting to get through.I think it'll be reasonably close. Mike might just edge it, though. You've got the Mechavore disc, which is pretty good (360, anyone?), and you might be able to get his teeth off, but it does have Normals, and his weapons don't, so I reckon he's going to be able to cause more damage overall. You'll definitely be giving it a good try, though.
You've got the Mechavore disc, which is pretty good (360, anyone?)Or War Bastard- that took Third Place in the MW Division last time around :approve:

It's wierd how we always go at each other's throats before the tournament starts, and yet we have never once fought each other outside of the Home Nations tournament. This might be a good chance for us to, in the HW bracket. =)
Just to jump into this great conversation, but GF.Worth a thought, I suppose :approve:
After my challenge is finished, how about I say my Tree Frog goes against your WarBastard? That would be fun :gawe:
But yes, I have noticed that- usually as a result of me dominating the second-round melees, and then getting cherry-tapped from behind by some lucky pretender who doesn't deserve it right at the end of the fight.I'm sorry, but I dominated that match more than you did. And oh, I WON.

From watching the match again, I took on everyone- played a key role in helping you immobilise Gemini, tossed you all over (with you mainly getting hits in from landing on me after being flipped), and this is key, getting Badnik out of the arena.
And even still, that's not good Sportsmanship from you there, either :rolleyes:
I'm sick and tired of you claiming that I "got lucky" in that match. You keep bringing it up and seem to get sympathy from everyone for it. In reality your bot got 1 OOTA, mine got 2 KO's. You were already heavily damaged from my earlier attacks by the time it became 1v1. Sincere apologies to freeziez for filling this thread up but I feel this needs to be put to rest.Fixed the quotes for you :approve:But yes, I have noticed that- usually as a result of me dominating the second-round melees, and then getting cherry-tapped from behind by some lucky pretender who doesn't deserve it right at the end of the fight.

I though S_M was quite mild-mannered, as well :/
On Topic: I sent my HW well before signups were full and yet it isn't entered. What happened?I think it should be in place of FOTEPX. When Ounce bumped my entry out, FOTEPX surrendered his HW position so I could enter it as a HW instead of putting it in the SHW bracket.

I think he might be getting a bit peeved with GF93 going on about it quite a while after the event. (Ninja'd) I think it'd probably be best if we dropped the issue now, there's very little we can actually do about it at this stage. Besides, it's freeziez' tourney, we should be discussing stuff about that. =D
Honestly, GF93, take it outside and make a thread or something. This is my thread, for my tournament, and it's hard enough basically running four at once.And we thank you for it =]

What was its name?
(edit): Ah, yes, TT. I'll just put you in front of NFX and give him a playoff.
A what? I've told you, he should be replacing FOTEPX. I'll find the post in the signups thread for you if you want it.
Just add a 'range' value in the line.
Question:
What exactly are Ryu-Kishin's weapons?
Click, I don't think it's Dutch. I've never heard of before and I am Dutch.It's just ye olde English representative of the slow hum made by the bees.

Hang on, in ounce vs Pressure, why did SKBT give 22 points and me and you only give 15?
2. i'm having an SM syndrome from last season iirc (or was it bb2?), no way should i have lost my weapon motor and chassis through a solid piece of armour

I have my vote for luckiest.Who is it? :gawe:
I think you might already know.PM me =P
Who said I was surprised
Freeziez, I want for NFX to take my HW spot, mainly because I've seen his HW and it stands a much better chance than mine.
Now to face a magical floating axle.Yeah, at least mine was realistic...
Now to face a magical floating axle.n00b question but what;s is a floating axel, the unused one on my weapon system, and if so how is that unrealistic? Sorry for that I did't realize when I was making it I guess. Once again I'm really sorry

Sorry for that I did't realize when I was making it I guess. Once again I'm really sorry
Sorry Nic, what we meant was if we look at your bot, its weapon motor is powered by a perm. Perms (in DSL) all have belts, belts are not rigid and so therefore would 'flop' down without support, and your weapon would fail =PNow to face a magical floating axle.n00b question but what;s is a floating axel, the unused one on my weapon system, and if so how is that unrealistic?

floating axles is the least of the problems I have with some of these botsCare to share us those problems?
freeziez, the Heavyweight brackets are STILL wrong. I should be replacing FOTEPX. I have told you this at least five times now. FOTEPX specifically requested that Ashes To Ashes be removed and replaced with The Highlander.Freeziez, I want for NFX to take my HW spot, mainly because I've seen his HW and it stands a much better chance than mine.
There's the post explaining everything. PLEASE get it right this time.
Just to make doubly sure you get it...

I know. I saw. I was going to update it now, since I have round 1 filmed.
DP
I have a problem.
I recorded TH2 vs. Nyx about 20 times, and every time Nyx would lose both its flamethrowers. Every time this happened, RA2 would crash. I have the vids, but the problem is you can't see it actually havoking, so I'm not sure it would be relevant. Any idea on how to pass the vid?
I don't really know what would happen in that instance...I can only imagine that might go down as a havok DQ, but I'm not entirely certain. Might have to wait for someone else's judgement on the matter, maybe GK might be able to shed some light on it.
It's too late to go back with the HW, but if the SHW has the same problem, just remove the flamethrowers. It sucks losing to a physics glitch.
This is possibly my worst tournament. Ever.Been a bit of a mixed bag for me, so far. Good in the fact that I've won at least one match with both my robots (and got a good draw against The Ounce), but bad in the fact that I lost to oversized hinge wedges that probably wouldn't be practical IRL.

Wait a minute.lol and overweight.
Firstly how did Ounce get away with all those weapons.
Secondly, Scrap's SHW is not legal.
IMO the MOE motor should be allowed =PWait a minute.lol and overweight.
Firstly how did Ounce get away with all those weapons.
Secondly, Scrap's SHW is not legal.
It's the Perm 132 EL in NAR AI, I don't think it's any different in terms of stats from the other Perm motors. I reckon it should be fine.Usual problem though, it's not allowed...
