Hmmm...it seems I called it on my fight.

That was quite entertaining to see Red Tide valiantly try to knock out Smitemare in the third round.
This next fight will be decided once again by whose wedge is superior. Unfortunately for me, I think that the wedgier one is RRG.

i love bbeans

but he did it again


You'll have to sneak and look at Phlox's bot after he enters next time, and then build a bot to counter it :mrgreen:

...And then not end up facing him, probably.  It's pretty weird that you two would fight two BBEANS in a row, while me and FB have never fought.

..They are actually brothers.

I'm glad that you got BrasOuvert SD. I had a feeling you were going to won that fight, because of the fact that all the spikes do hit normally one of BrasOuvert's hammers (especially as a flail) and all the spikes have more HPs that one hammer. (these are 60kg's right?)

i dont find it quite fair that the people in the losers brackets are taking over the ranking system because they have had more fights.

I do agree, but you may cheer up a little because  we, the winner bracket, NEVER lost a fight and for some of us, never lost a match.

Click, you mentioned how you have never faced FB, why not have a sibling showdown. It will use team battle mode, and it will be like a rumble. You an FB on a team vs. Phlox and Barbie on a team, or you could make it so you face FB or something.

I mean I've never had to face him in a tournament.  We've fought off the record before.

Sage: the loser's bracket bots might have had more fights, but that's also more opportunities to get knocked out of the tournament.  What would be unfair is if the loser's bracket bots were given lower scores than the winner's bracket bots despite having beaten more opponents.

And I don't see any way around the fact that the loser's bracket has more fights in it.  Either I would need to arbitrarily add more fights to the winner's bracket (unfair), or remove some fights from the loser's bracket, so some bots would be eliminated without fighting (even more unfair).

________________________

Anyways, Round 6 is up!

I tried some new techniques for these videos. For one thing, I put in background music, which I always do near the end of the tournament (I don't use it for the whole tournament because then it would get tiresome). Music is by Firebeetle.

But secondly, I put in some slow-motion instant replays of the really spectacular hits. I haven't done anything like this before so I'd like to know what you all think! The fights with instant replays are Ham-mer Sandwich vs. Diarrhea Of A Madman and Smitemare 8 vs. Red, Red, Green?

I liked the new videos, and the music is pretty good.

Is there any way I can download that and have it play during the matches, or have it included in the next DSL patch?

Firebeetle's music is going to be here - http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/bbeans/music (uploading updated versions right now)

One of these days I'll get around to making a proper page for it.

Good fight Naryar. It was very close. I really don't want to face HazCon again. It's a damn good bot.

Great, now onto DoaM. Somehow, I think this fight will be alot like sage's...

AAH! I lost because of driving!

That was a pretty damn sweet fight, loved HazCon's jump at first round.

Now, the loser's bracket... (BIG EDIT) Against Phlox ? Hmm. Interesting. Let's see if my wedge is superior.
(would have prefered to fight against SD, but... nevermind)

When I'm having a look at RRG's difficulty to get under Hostility, I'm thinking I have the best wedges.

Or HazCon would again drive like crap and lose again...

Unofficial Awards:

Judge: Somebody

Biggest Hit: Red, Red, Green? at the end of the end of the first round vs. Smitemare 8

Biggest Surprise: Ripterra mauling DOAM once in the first round. (to bad I lost though.)

Great job on the slo-mo, I :heart_smiley: it :-D

DOAM should be named Mako's Revenge because it is like Mako and will go ALL THE WAY.

Well, all that i think for our next fight Phlox is based on your first fight against Enfilad3... Enf3 had a better wedge than your RRG and I have a better wedge than Enfilad3.

I must say that i like the wedged VS design a lot and that your bot performed very well.

EDIT: I honestly think i will made it to the loser's bracket finals, and then lose to DOAM or Enfilad3 for the grand final.

EDIT 2: Fun how Click's predictions were accurate. All of his 5 picks for possible finalists are still in competition and we're only 6 now...

Hey, has anyone counted the points gathered over the tournament?
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.
