Beetleweight Bash MICRO - Signups (ONE SPOT LEFT)
« on: January 19, 2015, 01:13:06 AM »
So yeah, Robot Wars was kind of a disappointment and I'm sorry that happened. The flame just died I guess. However, I've decided I'm going to hold a quick tournament to try to rekindle the interest I had in tournaments.

RULES
DSL 2.1 Standard realism, though IRL bots are more than welcome
Beetleweight weight class (175.0 and below)
BFE, AAM and other glitches that make your robot unrealistic are not allowed.
Cheatbot2 is explicitly banned.
You cannot be entered until your robot is received and accepted
I will accept one update from you, and you cannot send a placeholder robot to reserve your spot.
One robot per person.

This tournament will be running a modified single elimination bracket (see below), with one battle per match to decide the winner.
Robots must show controlled movement.
No clusterbots.
Match-altering havoks (IE: Those that cause a robot to glitch OOTA, flip another robot, etc) will automatically kick the robot from the competition.
Arena will be the SMALL ARENA with HAZARDS OFF.

YOUR ROBOT MUST NOT BE ON THE BOT EXCHANGE PRIOR TO SIGNUPS. YOU MUST SEND ME A NEW ROBOT THAT HAS YET TO BE UPLOADED. The reason for this is that the robots I receive for this tournament will be competing in Beetleweight Bash Series 5 afterwards, and I already have every robot from the exchange. Sending me an old robot that's been renamed and re-uploaded is not okay but I'm not certain to enforce it, so we'll go by host's discretion. If it's too similar to a robot you already have on the exchange I have the right to reject it.

Bracket Rules:
The 24 entrants will be placed into 6 qualifier rumbles. The two longest-surviving robots advance to the next round, with 4 matches of 3 robots. The winners of these matches advance to the final rumble.

I will not be entering.

Havok rule seems a bit harsh.

No it cannot.

Havok rule seems a bit harsh.

It's harsh because rematches are annoying to film and that rule's how I've been handling BW Bash havoks so far.

Anyone else have a question or can I move this to signups? I'd like to get this done in a timely fashion.

Yes. This may seem obvious, but how many bots are you willing to take per person. It doesn't really say in the signups.

You can if you don't want two robots in BW Bash 5 :V

This'll be a quick tournament that would be difficult to lose interest in quickly. The reason robot wars was kill was because my comp cut out halfway through and ate all my interest in finishing it.

This is the tournament to fill the final spots. Enter this or none of your bots are getting in.

I'll just rebuild it so it's exactly the same, but it won't be on the exchange until I put it on there, it'll be fine.
