It's finally here, which means it's time to show them how much I've learned.

I'm in, and it won't be long before I send my entry, I just need to add some finishing touches (AKA CandyTM) to it.

Mine isn't a flail spinner, so I guess you were wrong.

plenty of people lurk

also I have no idea why 2 select members issued not very friendly welcomes, those 2 disliked getting "noob treatment" so why do it to others?

I think the word noob should be censored on the forum sometimes  :ermm:

Well I will welcome another DSL builder on the forums, but his entry better not be a SFTW... heck, if there is ANY failbot in here i will go mad.

Now i might be wrong and he might already have some decent DSL building skills.


Xile, you might want to start a DSL showcase so we can offer advice on your designs.

First of all,

This is BBEANS... the ultimate test of manhood skill for builders.


I am entering this to win.

Woooaaaahhhh... that's a MONUMENTAL statement! Naryar? Attempting to win a competitive tourney? That's almost heresey![/sarcasm]

Who places 2nd?

Me. Like always :\

Joking aside, LW's are a bit trickier to predict than MWs and HWs in my opinion. Let's reserve our judgements until we see the splash (which I can't wait for, BTW).

I think that Xile wont have very good bot...

We didn't think that Alterer of Reality had a very good bot either, but then he went on to beat Reier, Venko and Naryar (all in a row), thereby solidifying his place in BBEANS and RA2 lore. Bottom line is we have no idea what he's capable of. He could be a long-time lurker and rival some of the best here, he could be average by GTM's standards, or he could absolutely suck. Hard.


BBEANS is always the best and most fun tourney around, and if I'm not mistaken, this has the potential to be one of the biggest fields in BBEANS history. Should be great :D

I was not aiming to win when entering more than a few tournaments. The only ones i was confident about winning were WRL1 and RIP. Hell, even BBEANS5 i was mildly enthusiastic about my bot.

But now this is BBEANS6, that i've been waiting for more than a year. I am NOT going to get my ass kicked by Pwn or Ounce once again, and losing to you is out of the question :P

Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: R0B0SH4RK on April 03, 2010, 12:57:06 PM
Sorry, but all I read there was:

I expected to win every tournament I entered, but I was really pissed when you guys handed me my ass on a silver platter. Over and over again. I'm just saying this to make it seem like this is what I expected, in order to preserve my aura of invincibility that exists only in my head. The only ones i was confident about winning were WRL1 and RIP. Hell, even BBEANS5 i was actually devastated when I got beaten to a pulp by some noob.

But now this is BBEANS6, that i've been crying about losing so much for more than a year. I am going to be majorly butthurt when I get my ass kicked by Pwn or Ounce once again, and losing to you is going to make me FUUUUUUUUUU- louder and longer that I ever have...

I'm not sure what I'd prefer... a finals showdown between you and myself, or meeting in the first round, so you get humiliated and knocked out early :P
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: MikeNCR on April 03, 2010, 12:59:14 PM
I entered a bit ago. My pick was essentially "What's the best bot I have that can also reliably beat the best flail shell spinner I can come up with?"

I agree, just because you are new doesn't mean you are going to make a "failbot".

R0B0 will beat Naryar on the second round.

and I will beat R0B0 in round 3 thus causing a collapse in the space time continuum as R0B0 wasnt a BBEANS Finalist for once

Finals showdown, of course. It will be much more satisfying for me to steal you the championship and smash your pathetic attempt at a victory when you are the closer to obtain it.

When I am the closer to obtain it? What the heck does that even mean? Do all of my base are belong to you as well?

Of course your whole premise depends on you making the final. Which you won't. You better get to know the losers bracket, because that's where you'll be spending your time.

I agree, just because you are new doesn't mean you are going to make a "failbot".
 
When I was new, I didn't really get a good welcome to the forum, but I was able to get better and more respceted by the communtiy.

Of course your whole premise depends on you making the final. Which you won't. You better get to know the losers bracket, because that's where you'll be spending your time.

I can perfectly lose round 1, "spend my time in loser's bracket" and win the final :P

Got the first page updated with the latest entries.  We're halfway there now, plus four more people who need to resubmit their bots.

CB: My entry,has a problem, the weapon will not appear and the bot will havok, if you do not pause the game before you go into a match. (showcased)


Sorry, I can't pause the game before every match because it can affect the other bots.  Some bots will explode at the beginning of the match if you pause-load.  You'll have to find some other fix for the problem.

Loosely, we are only 12 bots away from a 64 bot bracket.  Those of you vets that are interested, get your ass in gear.  Otherwise, no whining later.

Oh, and the first person that suggests a 128 bot bracket gets perma-banned.

I definitely agree with Nar that the Phlox siblings and Harcsa should enter.  As far as I know Reier is working on an entry.  Pys and Inf, even though I don't like them, should also enter; I'm eager to see how well their DSL skills match up to their stock skills currently.

Post by: Clickbeetle on April 05, 2010, 11:17:55 PM
ehhhhhh, it's kinda hard to tell but I would guess not.  Does the bot still work if they're straight?  Or perhaps you could rotate the angled flipper segments 180 degrees and put some polycarb skirts on there instead of Panic Attack skirts.

Wow, I'm at 63 entries now, counting the "temporarily registered" group.  I don't think we'll have any problem getting to a full 64.


I'm almost sort of possibly kind of maybe close to tempted to start to begin commencing considering thinking about pondering weighing the merits of a larger bracket.  We'll see how many more people want to enter that don't get in.  If it happens (and in case you can't tell, it's far from certain), note that there will need to be a change in the tournament format (such as, the first few rounds being 1 match instead of best 2 out of 3, or doing double elimination for only the first round of the tournament).


R0B0 better hurry and get his new bot in...

I would cry if it were single elimination.  Best two out of three just seem more justifying for the biggest tournament of the year.

The idea/implementation of wildcard entries have been pretty successful in the past.  Could you just group all the late entries into a rumble bracket to determine a solid winner for spot number 64?  Just throwing out ideas here.

Post by: Clickbeetle on April 08, 2010, 09:35:34 PM
If you really up the bracket this tournament will probably take forever.


Hence why I would need to change the format, to make it quicker.


But I'm liking the wildcard plan.  I'm sitting right at 63 bots (assuming russian roulette fixes his realism issues and d-lark reuploads his bot in time) and as far as I know there are only a few more people who were definitely going to enter (Reier, Scrap, maybe a couple others).


So let's say for now the last four entries will be entered in a 4-bot mini-tournament for the last spot in the main tournament.  These wildcard fights WILL count towards your overall ranking in BBEANS.  If for some reason russian roulette or d-lark's five days expire, they will be moved into the wildcard bracket, unless that is full too.

BBEANS 7 is a total question mark for me, I don't know if we'll cycle all over again or if Click will retire his tournament running. My guess though is, it might be a Sub-class (AW,BW,SHW,UHW?!?!?!)Stock or Dsl that is your guess.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: JoeBlo on April 08, 2010, 11:08:29 PM
its going to have to be Stock

which rules out SHW, UHW and HW (last BBEANS)

my guess is a recycle to MW stock or BW stock

of corse if DSL 3 is out then... thats another story

Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: powerrave on April 09, 2010, 10:49:15 AM
probably. it would be most logical to then host a DSL3 tournament. but it might also become NAR AI if it suddenly contains a whole big load of custom components. and backlash is a possibility to keep in mind.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: Naryar on April 09, 2010, 10:55:45 AM

Probably not. According to the rules major updates are pretty much accepted until just before the tourney when he AIs the bots. I would say you are safe TG.

Unless your bot totally pwns and would likely win... in that case I am afraid it is too late.  :p

You can change your bot as long as I haven't AI'd it yet.  Which I'm going to start doing now, since it's been a week since I opened signups (but it will be a while yet before I get to your bot).


As for this talk of BBEANS7 (I should have known it would start now) I honestly don't know what it will be yet.  Some possibilities:


-Stock AW/BW
-Stock "Classic" (like AU-era bots.  No glitches, no stacking, no Snapper II's or AI parts, no wedges except on flippers.)
-DSL3 MW or HW


It will probably be one of those but I haven't really thought a lot about it yet.  It's still a long time in the future.

Post by: Somebody on April 10, 2010, 12:32:40 PM
Yea I might be sending an update to so don't AI it yet. Either way it would still work with the same AI (probably)

HA: They discussed it last BBEANS. Click refused.

Post by: JoeBlo on April 14, 2010, 02:55:49 AM
Click always maintained BBEANS as fully open (the email entrys allow non members to join also)

its funny though as everyone is trying to cram into 64 bracket yet I ran unlimited entries in CC3 and got only 41 :P lol cant complain as it means less work for me (I feel sorry for you click)

Naah, I don't think I'll try to compete for the last spot. It would have been cool to compete in all 6 BBEANS, but if I'd really been serious about it,  wouldn't have left for so long, though I have been busy.

Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: Clickbeetle on April 17, 2010, 10:47:23 PM
OH WAIT I suppose I ought to mention this here.


In the BBEANS bot showcase, I said that melty brain AI is incapable of avoiding obstacles.  But in fact it is capable of avoiding obstacles, and it actually works in the BBEANS Arena.  So for anyone who entered a SnS, if you would rather have me use melty brain AI, just tell me and I'll do so.  Otherwise I will use FBS_2.py (a non-melty brain SnS that will go after the opponent if it doesn't hit anything for a long time.  And apanx really should have called his AI MeltyBrain.py instead of FBS.py, it gets too confusing with FBS_1, FBS_2, FBS, FBSPlus...)


However do note that I adjusted the tick interval on the melty brain AI in order to reduce lag.  It may be slightly less accurate, but I've tested it and it still works well.


Also, I will be cutting the center blade's power for the tournament matches, since I've seen several bots get flung OOTA by it, which isn't supposed to happen.

I too am saddened that I came too late. I was planning to check in sooner, but I kinda forgot to. I haven't even looked at RA2 for months.
I do have a bot I could send you for the AI pack I suppose. It's basically a LW SHEBEAST. ;)

Yep; I've deliberately avoided doing anything with your bot, knowing that you wanted to update it.


I've got 19 out of 67 bots AI'd now... and fortunately, the most difficult to AI are among those.  So the rest of my AI'ing should be a bit easier from here on.


Some fun stats for ya'll to ponder while you wait for the splash (not 100% accurate, but approximate):


14 rammers
12 HS
10 VS
7 popups
6 jugglers
4 SnS
4 hammers
4 face spinners
3 flippers
2 side hammers

I counted it as a side hammer.  I know it's not quite a traditional side hammer, but it's close.


I also counted pokers with rammers, drums with VS's, top spinners with jugglers, etc.  Couldn't be bothered to get really detailed.  It's just a rough approximation, and I probably miscounted a few bots, which is why the total adds up to a little less than 67...

6 HS
6 Spinners (Flail & non Flail)
5 VS

7 Popups (Any kind)

It's not part of BBEANS requirement to have more than 500 post, or to be above average (whatever that means).  So it's fair game.

Also, who are these jokers who just popped up out of nowhere to enter and don't post anything on the forum? I'm looking at-
- inplabth
- timothy700

- mjrobots
- Scorpio

Amongst others. Seriously though, have any of them even posted, or have they just come to rob the people whom we want to see compete of their spaces?

Inpblath is a veteran of THE GAME and these forums.

Wings was in BBEANS 5, never a prolific poster.
mjrobots is not on GTM, but has been in every BBEANS since BBEANS 3.

Clickbeetle has always made sure that BBEANS was open to everybody who wanted to participate, as long as the bot followed tournament rules. It has also always been first come first serve basis. If somebody wants to duck out for a veteran that is one thing, but if you snooze you lose, plain and simple. I made sure my entry was ready in time, as did the people you mentioned. They earned their spot in this tournament. Consider this the official GTM Open tournament.

Also, just for the record Scorpio actually beat me back in BBEANS3, so he's definitely been around for a while (I got payback in all round bot builders championship though, hehehe.  ;) )

Sorry guys that I haven't been around for a while.  I've had an infinitesimal amount of free time lately as I've been rushing to build solitary bee nests and set them up in a park 200 miles away from where I live (it's for my Master's project).


Now it's finals week and I'll be busy again.  However, once that's over I'll have more free time and I expect things to start moving right along with BBEANS.  So just hang on for another week.  Your patience shall not go unrewarded  :mrgreen:

Wait, what? Solitary bee nests ? Aren't solitary bees supposed to be... well, solitary (they lay one egg in a single underground lair, AFAIK) and not to live in nests like many other Hymenoptera ?

Coordinating clickbeetle nests would have been a much more interesting master project.

As far as i know, the beetle order does not have any social species (or really really few) and do not form nests :P

Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: Naryar on May 11, 2010, 03:42:19 AM
No BBEANS will never be backlash neither NAR AI.

I hope for a Stock HW Realistic BBEANS7 so we don't get gay 36-mace HS everywhere... it'll be spammed with popups and other gut rippers but still, will make for an interesting change of tactics !

Post by: Clickbeetle on May 16, 2010, 06:27:36 PM

I've got half of the entries AI'd now!  :mrgreen:


This week is going to be less busy than the past couple weeks, so I should make some significant progress.  I might even finish the AI'ing if I don't encounter any unforeseen snags along the way.


However, the week after I'll be traveling on a native bee survey trip.  So I'll try to get as much AI'ing done this week as possible, so I can get the splash up before I leave.


With that in mind, I'm thinking I'll lock down entries at the end of this week.  No more changes and no more updates, unless absolutely necessary.  You've all had plenty of time now to tweak your bots.  Once entries are locked down, I'll be able to post a splash of all the bots, even if I haven't finished AI'ing.


We'll make it official and say Friday May 21 is the last day you can change/update your bots.


And now for a little off-topic interlude.

Wait, what? Solitary bee nests ? Aren't solitary bees supposed to be... well, solitary (they lay one egg in a single underground lair, AFAIK) and not to live in nests like many other Hymenoptera ?


"Nest" doesn't need to refer to a social structure.  The "underground lairs" of ground-nesting bees are usually called nests even though they are maintained by just one bee.  In my case, I set up blocks of wood with holes in them, which (hopefully) bees will nest in.


We now return to your regularly scheduled thread.

Heh.. sadly not. A LW multibot doesn't give much to work with. I've got the non-AI part Great Wall but a LW can go so much further. Ruins a 100% multibot BBEANS record but what can you do, assuming you want to be competent?
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration

AW multibot.

Correct, but I was using it in the terms that "both bots add up to LW weight.
 
Not exactly. While there are all of the AW parts, it doesn't mean they can be used to make a bot half as strong as a LW (thus making it a BBEANS-worthy multibot) . So as Naryar says, an AW multibot is going to fail.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration

I don't think we can really claim ant batts are actually AW components, regardless of how obviously they are. They're useful across the board, making it not particularly an ant batt.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: NFX on May 18, 2010, 12:49:22 PM
Sometimes Ant Batteries can be a godsend. I think that overall they're better than the biggest battery there, PTC something-or-other, the 60 amp one. Six ant batts might be a bit heavier, but you don't have to make the chassis as tall to accomodate them, so you save weight there. I reckon it balances out pretty well.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: Somebody on May 18, 2010, 08:34:35 PM
But other ant parts can also theoretically be useful, depending on how much power you want in your drive.

Post by: System32 on May 18, 2010, 09:01:47 PM
The whole AW multibots suck thing is carried over from stock, where AW multi's don't have a chance at all.
 
There are way better components in DSL, and most LW's aren't all encompassing HS.
Title: Re: BBEANS6 Registration
Post by: Naryar on May 19, 2010, 02:08:27 AM
If we consider the piglet and the ant battery ant parts, then these are the only good ant parts.

Multibots are a strategy.
 
You can use two bots of the same type or a team which compliments each other.
 
You need to be good at building to get effective multibots, because some of the necessary parts sums up as wasted weight (2 control boards, more chassis space... etc)
