We could all go on and on and on about how many people we could get to join this...

But when Click decides to actually do a 64 bot bracket... we better take this speculation and turn it into a reality.  As it stands right now, if every active member on the forum invites 2 people to possibly enter the DSL tourney we will be fine.  I have a couple of old players in mind that I am going to message.

Sparkey seems to be no stranger to sending emails to vets all over the place so if we all work together when it comes to crunch time a 64 bot bracket should be a breeze.

Moms? Sisters? Unborn infants? Bah!!1! Just go through the members list here on GTM and pick a few familiar names to get in touch with ok?

if my friends would hurry and actually show themselfs here instead of making weird attempts to a DSL LW. the vote would be slightly higher. and on the attempt part, i don't know what they are doing but as i here it, nothing they make actually work in any way. i really wonder what they are doing.

OK guys, it's been less than a week and we're already at 37 responses for #1 and #2, 52 with #3 included.  By the time April 2nd actually rolls around, we might even be over 64 (but I'm NOT doing a 128-bot bracket.  There's a limit to how much I can handle and 64 is about it.)  I think it's safe to say I'll be starting with a 64-bot bracket.


So, just calm down.  There's still OVER A MONTH until registration starts--you don't need to persuade everyone and their mom to enter just for the sake of a bigger tournament.  If registration opens and it turns out that the poll gave an overestimate of the number of entries, then you can rope your friends and family into this.

i am very calm! ... ... in 8-bit...

but really, my friends have been trying to make something. they really want to enter, and so do i. this just shows how much we love big tournaments and how much we like BBEANS.

and with over a month of time, i might want to try and make my entry better.

i don't have a flipper this time. need to practise making good flippers with DSL, and then keeping the bot LW. until then i have a robot to enter, may slightly edit it in time. i should overall make some more bots, i now barely have any choice or still need to build something.
