I've been looking forward for this and I'm ready this time. I also like the additional wedge rules to try to make this fair.

If I send new robot, does my previous winner get replaced? Or can I effectively have two entries?
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: MassimoV on April 12, 2014, 01:41:08 PM
Do metal hinges need to be raised up too?
I don't really know yet. I figure if you use some bad type of wedge on a metal hinge, i.e. spike strip, I think I'll let that slide.

If I send new robot, does my previous winner get replaced? Or can I effectively have two entries?
Yeah only one bot per weight class. Sorry about that, but if you sent something new, it would replace Death Incarnate.

but metal hinge wedges work exactly like real life skirts, a la biohazard...

I don't know what game you've been playing, but that's not how the metal hinge behaves in DSL 2.1.

it seems like it for me
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: MassimoV on April 12, 2014, 02:01:15 PM
Yeah as shown in the picture below, the metal hinge doesn't bend beyond a certain point.
If the metal hinge behaved like Biohazards, the wedge would hit the ground instead of being suspended above it.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: cephalopod on April 12, 2014, 02:03:57 PM
The way axle wedges behave is more of a comparison to Biohazard's wedges if anything CAN be compared to them.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: playzooki on April 12, 2014, 02:06:32 PM
ah ok, but doesnt it work for low robots? and isnt it supposed to be used as a servo to press the ground?

and axle wedges are a pain to look good with
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: Mr. AS on April 12, 2014, 02:07:12 PM
IIRC you have to actually wire the hinge and spin/fire it like a motor in order to have it function like biohazard.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: MassimoV on April 12, 2014, 02:08:35 PM
You can use it like a servo but it never stays and it makes for really crap wedges so there's almost no point in doing it. The only reason that I'm not banning it is because there's bots like Super Komodo who use them and I don't really consider those wedges cheap or ugly looking.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: Natster-104 on April 12, 2014, 03:24:30 PM
I think I might just pull my socks up and enter, tbh I hardly know what any of these glitches are
Edit: Will you be willing to AI?

I'll see what I can whip up for BB9.

You might as well just allow all BFE as long as it's realistic.

Welp, all my BB8 bots are coming back in slightly meaner forms for this one.

(besides Airacobra. No matter what I do I cannot make that thing not a pile of crap.)
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: TommyProductionsInc on April 17, 2014, 06:54:46 PM
Finished my HW.
May need some improvements.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: Elementos on April 17, 2014, 08:43:50 PM
So I've done my LW and MW, just need to make my HW. (I'm not going to bother in the SHW category because I know I'll just fluff something up and get destroyed in 2.5 seconds.) Can't wait for BB9, if it's anything like BB8 than this shall be a cracker to say the least.
Title: Re: Battlebots 9
Post by: playzooki on April 18, 2014, 08:28:07 AM
Done MW and SHW, modifying HW and deciding on LW

No, standard DSL parts only. Sorry man.
However, the Perm 80 UL can be found in normal DSL 2.1 (It is found using cheatbot2 and is called the MOE Motor) and is allowed in this tourney.

Only problems left are Senstro's SHW and Jakewilliamson's MW. Otherwise everything's acceptable.

Sent off my two bots. Billet 5 will make a return for the Lightweights. A new Billet 6 will be for Middleweight, it's my most powerful one yet I reckon.

Urjak could very well be dead.
Mike is always the first person to send stuff which I appreciate alot.
GF93 doesn't really play RA2 or even come here.
Ounce has been gone since 2012.
Coolrunner is on and off so yeah idk.
Conraaa has uni work and hasn't been on in like 8 months.
SD is like the very last person to enter every time.
Akshaylan idk.
Avalanche is a turd and I'm cool with him not entering.


Everyone is taking their time. I know plenty of people who are still building or just haven't sent their entry's yet.

Do think I'll try getting back into building new stuff too again. For this I just entered some old bots that did well in the past.

The HW's wedges are illegal and there is no hammer setup like that in any real robot. The SHW is a bunch of random components sewn together in some big disarray of madness that would be impossible to create in real life.

I will spend some more time trying to build a system of translational movement that uses only motors. Right now the A/D turning buttons work flawlessly (albeit backwards I think). W/S was proving to be the hard one.

If all else fails, let it be a punching bag. After all, that's what the robot's namesake would have wanted. (SPOILER ALERT)

Post by: RFS on May 14, 2014, 05:53:24 PM
I am flattered, but I don't anticipate Thumperizer doing extremely well in the tournament mostly because it's a goofy design and trying to rationalize it and re-interpret it via DSL proved to be pretty difficult. Of course, I wasn't aware of the ant/spin-motor battery bug at the time, but still it's a design that's kinda top-heavy by nature and due to the placement of its wheels the centrifugal force of the spinners constantly works against it. :( I'm a little pissy about changing the design TOO much because in a way it's kind of an iconic robot so I opted to leave it as-is and just do my best, haha.

Truthfully, the same can be said for ALL of the robots entered, even the SHW. The design did not work as great as I had hoped but it just looked too damn cool to throw away so I hope it's a pleasant surprise to the rest of the community.

Clickbeetle v. RFS ROUND ONE

Let's do this! I can take him!  :gawe: My LW will win this tournament, you'll see. It has the gnarliest weapon ever seen in a tournament. You guys only think I've been "gone" for all these years. I've been watching, learning everything about DSL and biding my time to spring out and destroy everyone.

Also, I'm sorry, but my middleweight is going to treat this like a cakewalk. Thanks for entering everyone but I'll take my giant nut now.

The only people who've seen my entries are Badnik, MassimoV, and my roommate. :P I posted Gatorphilia because the robot did not make the cut but I still wanted to share it because I thought it looked neat. I've a few newer bots that I haven't posted just because I'd like to debut them in these tournaments to keep people guessing.

I've always been from Fort Worth. You guys have a nice city and all that jazz (infact its probably my favorite city I've ever vacationed to), I
made the team a San Antonio theme because Steel Of San Antonio (Originaly was to be named Dallas Evo) looked like a tank, and San Antonio has a military appeal. So I went ahead and made a team of "Tanks"

It was originally going to be Amarillo themed LW, Fort Worth Themed MW, San Antonio Themed HW, and Galveston Themed SHW.

Also, Me, You, And Scrapyard24c have to have a "Best In Texas" Grudge match end of season.

The more I've been working on designs made me realize that my MW can, without warning, spontaneously stop working. I mean, become deadlier.

Whoops.  :gawe:

A little update, so I'm sorry I haven't been extremely speedy with the SBV thread. Finals have been going on. I also just qualified for state tennis (see, it pays off Andy) so I've been busy with that. Also I think about half of this tournament's entries were sent in the last 2 days. And I also have like 20 updated bots which is another pain. So hopefully when my IRL obligations are finished ill get the SBV thread ready to go.

At least we're now informed on what's going on behind the scenes.
