It's back, and better than ever!
How about we try something different?
RULES
- DSL LW/MW/HW/SHW
- BattleBox 2.0 arena, heckraisers off.
- 3 minute matches
- Realistic Rule applies very strongly, IT MUST BE FOLLOWED (Garvin).
- No NARmour
- 1 Havok restart, 2nd time eliminated
- No cheatbot2
- No BFE, AAM, Trov Glitch, NCR glitch, or any glitch that makes the bot unrealistic
- Replicas are NOT allowed
- Cannot use DSA (why would you?)
- Robots must look as close to IRL designs as possible. (No unrealistic weapon sizes, disproportionate designs.)
- No face spinners
- Moving weapons may not touch the ground initially. It is OK if a robot is flipped over but not if weapons hit the ground when the match starts.
- Bots with treads get a 60 kg weight cushion.
- MUST have a sponsor decal

(https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Arena2/Misc/JX_Sponsor_Decals.zip (https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Arena2/Misc/JX_Sponsor_Decals.zip))
- LW walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 425 kgs, but at least 175 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
- MW walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 800 kgs, but at least 400 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
- HW walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 1200 kgs, but at least 400 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
- SHW walkers/shufflers can weigh up to 1600 kgs, but at least 400 kgs must be used on the walker or shuffler system itself.
JUDGING
- Fights will be judged on significant attacks and control of match.
- Fights will be judged on a spectrum of 45 points.
- Fights will be judged by me, G.K., and SKBT.
PRIZES
Division Champion- A guaranteed spot in my next tournament
Here's the catch:
There will be 32 entries. You can only enter 1 bot, but into whatever weight class you want, unless that weight class is full. 8 people can enter LW, 8 MW, 8 HW, and 8 SHW. Each group will battle for division champion. Yes, this means there will be 4 champions, which also means I can't give 2nd place a prize. Sorry. Division champions will get a reserved spot in my next tournament, because it would get old if everyone starts getting component prizes.

Cool idea running all 4 weightclasses. Can I please enter this time? I'll be impartial to judging my own fights. Or you could find someone else to "Guest Judge" my fights. (that's what's done IRL if one of re judges has a team affiliation)
-
you cant run major league tournaments yet?
-
Minor league got upgraded to 32.
-
This is an awesome idea. =D I will be entering.

I actually like this idea, and I think I know a certain person whose name rhymes with Mertigo who would like to get a shot at judging. ;)

-Tournament Name Withheld- didn't count.

Whats the ruling on walkers for this one?

Interesting. Now to find some good design...

Walking overhead hammer seems to do quite well.

Can we enter more than one division? Or do we have to have one bot?

You can only have one bot, but can enter it into whatever weight class you choose.
-
I've already got a bout for all these apart from SHW.
-
I might do either HW or LW.
-
AWESOME
totally entering
-
Can't enter :(
-
You know I'm all over this- once I get back from Spain, I'll enter something in either the MW or HW categories.

-

-
Probably gonna do HW.
-
makin a MW or maybe a HW
-
Nice! Hopefully I will not miss signups again this time. I will hold on to my BB2 entry and send it in when this gets voted through.
-
I`ll enter Ryu in the HW class ;)
-
I have the thing for this.
-
I reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeealy wanna enter a DSL version of my stock LW epic VS into this. I dunno why.

MW, plox
Why's that? :P
-
Im just going to end up maknig one for each so i dun miss out.
-
Who's going to do SHW?
-
I'm tempted to make a SHW. i'm slightly worried it'd become a Rammer-fest though.
-
Wait, does that mean my Anti Gravity from Bof cant enter because of the(if something hits the floor at start of the match its illegal to enter) rule?

Anti Gravity can enter, because a flipper, especially because it's made of flipper segments, is not a weapon.

This means we can enter in all four weight divisions yes ?

booooooooo :p But in battlebots some of the teams entered in moar than one weight class (team mutant robots, C2 robotics, etc)
So I think you should allow like two bots per person.

I'm just starting off with this system, and there's a max entry limit of 32, and I want to give everyone who hasn't entered a chance to.

after this you should totally do a 16-bot tourney for each weightclass
it's be AWESOME
