If you want to make a jokebot tournament, don't put completely arbitrary stuff in the rules.

Quote from: playzooki on January 30, 2015, 03:18:19 PM

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

So it's just like 090901's tourney ? Eh, i'm ok with this.

Also can you provide the smartzones with attachment points ?

Hopefully this isn't the new trend for tournaments.

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.

playzooki · « **Reply #19 on:** February 04, 2015, 02:11:38 PM »

im only doing this as i have an idea for a tournament but it wouldnt work with 16 entries.
