If you want to make a jokebot tournament, don't put completely arbitrary stuff in the rules.
All robot must do or have at least one of these things:
Trinity
No controlled movement
Be a crawler with no weapons on the drive
Use twin blackbirds and be under 175kg
At least 14 wheel drive
200cm motorcycle wheels
At least 10 thrusters
Use piston drive
Because this is retarded. Or just trolling ?
I bet you can't AI piston drive either

Hopefully this isn't the new trend for tournaments.

back in 2014 i planned to do a rocky baloba tribute tournament. the ray rice tourney happened so it turned into this.

Seconded

Is changing the weight limit to 420kg a good idea or do you think it would be better staying at 800kg?

Considering how low tournament activity is and how much tournaments are getting bailed out these days, I think this new "retard rumble" idea is a good and hilarious idea for giving life into tournaments again.
It is certainly vastly more entertaining that the endless IRL tournaments we are having "oh hey look two flippers are battling, how exciting" or "oh hey look a pusher versus a HS, GEE I REALLY WONDER WHO WILL WIN", and even more fun than most DSL-S tournaments either.
tl;dr stop whining. This is like n00b warz but even more so and as you remember every n00b warz was overwhelmingly seen as positive.
Even if it becomes a fad who cares ? It'll give a good laughs.
I for one am waiting for one of these tournaments to be done by Massimov himself. I think his video editing will be the best.

Keep it to 800. Retard rumble = better is heavier.

I agree, the reason why I don't plan on doing another GREATEST TOURNAMENT is that I don't want to ruin the idea already.
-
im only doing this as i have an idea for a tournament but it wouldnt work with 16 entries.

stop whining.
Stop moderating.
Sure okay, a tourney like this is fine once every few months, but having them back to back and then becoming a fad defeats the purpose of it being funny entirely.

He's right, for once.
-
Just leave it to playjewki to make things unfunny.

Playzooki is putting me out of work. I am the one which makes things unfunny round here!

That is true. However, we have just had -two- tournaments like this. It is not a fad yet considering only ONE person jumped on the "fad".
If more of these happen in a row however, then I would agree with you and andrew.
After all, if someone posts an image in there and someone else wants it to become a GTM meme, it isn't a meme unless other people start to use it, no ?

I know these tournaments are good because it brings life in tournaments, or bad because they summarize how it summarizes jokes about the internet that are unnecessary and annoying. In both cases I just mentioned, I'm not really in either crowd. I feel that if someone wants to run a tournament, I feel it's what the host wants to do and at the same time trying to appeal to others because the main point of a tournament is to get people to enter it and show enthusiasm in entering. Take a look at some of the tournaments I've been hosting, I try to host something I feel would be fun and I try to make certain thing interesting so people care about it. Whether or not I succeeded, is up to the entrants. I also feel that tournament life depends on the forum activity and forum behavior. BBEANS and Clash Cubes were popular because of an active community who all thought it was fun to enter. But that isn't the same as the forum we have now. I mean, 09's "GREATEST" Tournament was to appeal on the forum we have now and that went pretty successfully since people cared for it, and you're opinion depends on enthusiasm in the tournament you want to enter. With all this said, I don't care what playzooki hosting this as long he has people who cares. I may not care, but as long as others care, then he can go right ahead.

And other people are using it. If this is the third tournament, thats 2 tournaments too many. I dont particularly mind these if people enjoy them, but i actually want a serious tournament. But thats just my opinion.
