I might have a small chance at getting past the first round, but it will be fun to enter my first BBEANS anyways. Can't wait for it to start, the fire thing sounds cool.

No Leaf Clover uses razor strips now??? Or did it always use that...



Nope! that's the upgraded version! I actually have a chance now, but I still don't think I'm gonna win. I like Go Barbie, Go!, lol. It reminds me of my Chick bots.

Yeah... I think that after a splash is put up that nobody else can enter.

Yes Death, it is. He said that you had until the 24th to submit your bot. Because you didn't, Seastalker and his bot, Rage III, are now in the tourney.

i wonder if clickbeetle uses the Hat program that i use. worst draw for me would be robosharks entry first.

For me it would be T-4 or Haymaker, because they are the two favorites.

I am not a very good MW builder. i probably should have checked what the arena was like before i entered, this shall be embarrassing. Hazardous Contraption or T4 to win, the former fistly because of the name, and secondly because neglected waterbug is awesome. Observation: wasn't silvers last bot T2?

somebody.. i think you look at rankings and factor it in too much :wink: the fact is a ranked builder/bot has never won BBEANS!

BBEANS 1 - all rookies.
BBEANS 2 - MNCR - smashbox 2 was a rookie.
BBEANS 3 - ACAMS - childsplay IV was a rookie.

so i'm gonna stay with the pattern and say roboshark will win. but hopefully its my bot who wins! :ermm:

I have almost no chance at winning this so I'm going to back roboshark's entry to win because it looks like it will get under most bots in this competition. Haymaker will get coolest bot without a doubt.
Good luck to everybody else competing!:)

Haymaker will get most feared bot no doubt, and ian, i didn't look at the rankings, those were just the bots that I though were best.

The brackets are up, and first round fights are set!

Click here, if you dare...

That also means that no one can update their bot anymore.

I have all the bots mostly AI'd (they all have satisfactory bindings, but some might still need a bit of tweaking), so the tournament should officially begin shortly.

I find it amusing how both pairs of bots whose names start with "No" and "Go" ended up fighting each other.  That was a total coincidence, I swear!  The top 16 ranked bots and the rookies' names weren't even drawn out of the same hat.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.
