Good to hear. However, it is going to be a while before Click starts everything up.

Start a showcase and show us some of your bots. Then we can help you build better and get ready for the tournament.

I'd be cool with a Stock MW tourney like BBEANS 1.
Same here, actually.
QFT
But I believe click said this is just a nice lickle summer tourney, so i'm k with that, and a stock MW BBEANS.
Still, haven't voted, coz they both seem like quite good ideas.


Well prepare to be cool then... after Ironbot/Throwback I will do BBEANS7, which I've decided will be stock LW/MW/HW.  Three separate 32-bot brackets and competitors are allowed to pick up to two of them to enter.  Kind of like Battlebots with multiple weight divisions.  Or I could do three 64-bot brackets with single elimination to cut down on the number of videos, since having multiple bots in other weight classes somewhat eliminates the need for a second chance in a loser's bracket.


</speculation>


In related news it looks like Ironbot and Throwback are both popular.  If there was a clear majority for one of them I would do that... but I think it will come down to my own personal preference.  I'll have to run a quick Ironbot test run and see how much work it is and whether the fights get too boring late in the tournament or not.

I like the BBEANS 7 idea. A good solution. I think that 3 64-bot brackets with single elim would work better personally.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

When do signups close? i can't play RA2 until the 6th of august, so can u make it so i can fit within a 3-day time limit?

Edit: would u guys help me? i've only played DSL, so can someone help me find out which weapons are the best besides razors via the ratio hp/kgs? (i think razors are great weapons, but if they break in ironbot, your screwed. CURSE YOU 1000HP!)
Man this needed an update. Anyways, Your local autistic idiot signing out.

Signups haven't started for this yet. The Ironbot signups are open for not very long.

Are Ramplates allowed as part of a pure flipper?

They would be, but I'm not doing the Throwback tournament, I'm doing Ironbot.  Please use the Ironbot thread for further discussion:

Oh. Curses. Is Throwback coming later, or has it been shelved?

I still think it's a cool idea so I might do it at some point, but it will be in the far distant future if so.  Certainly after BBEANS7.

Ah, that's good to hear, then. Might give me an excuse to build a pure flipper in stock like in old times  :3
