Nicely set out rules. Will think about building but IRL seems very restrictive for anything I'd want to build in the BW class.

this thread's name made me think of Click getting beaten for some reason... pretty sure IRL BW and DSL-S BW aren't that different by the way.

I am also unsure about your controlled movement rule, it looks unclear and confusion-inducing to me.

Otherwise I have a rammer idea, so I will build something. If I remember :P

2 v 2 match format? Are bots getting randomly paired up? Or did you mean a 4-way match?
Title: Re: Beetle Bashers - Discussion
Post by: Badnik96 on June 17, 2014, 12:37:20 PM
Sounds good. I'm in.
Title: Re: Beetle Bashers - Discussion
Post by: Merrick on June 17, 2014, 12:42:19 PM
I'd build something for this.

I'm trying my hand at building for this one. I don't know why but I quite like beetleweights.

Whoops, thanks for catching that. I meant 1 vs 1 matches. Fixed now along with some other mistakes I may have missed.

Also, is there a way to fix this into a poll? I didn't realize the "new poll" option until I have posted this tournament idea.

Edit: Never mind, I found it.
Title: Re: Beetle Bashers - Discussion
Post by: El Chickenado on June 17, 2014, 03:08:49 PM
you should still just have a poll button

Irl BW should be interesting, might enter this with smoke ball.

Okay, There are now 8 votes, but before I PM Craaig, are there any other things you would like me to include or change in the rules?

IDK, But they probably will since this seems like it's going to be a popular tourney and it's only 16 entries.

Good point. I knew some problem would come up. Should I give a deadline for this thing or fill in a "Bye" for the bracket for the empty spot(s)?
