Just for information, but for CB2 components, you should unban the Overkill Servo too. Also, you should specify the CB2 wheels. Because for example, Storm 2 wheels are just recolored rubber wheels with lighter weight, and thus, cheaty

guys, i ran into an issue.
All of our robots might be different weight classes.

So, there are two ways to combat this.
1. Different weight classes
2. We do our first HW.

You have to do a voting where people must answer if they want to enter or not. The amount of yes votes before a tournament can go in signup must be half of the total people that could enter

I have to agree with Reier here. I remember that when building my first DSL HW bot before I joined GTM, the building practices of the bot wouldn't of been acceptable by today's IRL meta standards. In truth, some users at the time of making their first DSL IRL bots, probably wouldn't of known about IRL building rules or at the time seeing DSL 2.1 IRL building rules, which would be unacceptable by today's standards such as using skirt hinges for flipping arms etc. So if you want this tournament idea to work, at least make it an unrealistic or standard tournament, due to what has been previous mentioned in the post.

also irl fad is super new and most people on the forum joined before it took off

Just because you say a meta is almost dead, doesn't mean you can't do it. Doing IRL for this type of tournament is risky, due to what I said in my previous post. But running a standard tournament may lead to a low turn out due to a lack of overall interest. It's your decision at the end of the day, and I'm not going to stop you.

Most people's actual first DSL bots probably aren't even DSL-S legal either. I know mine aren't.

Yeah, pic for what he meant

And it's meant to be IRL, but that was made when I still didn't understand IRL and have RA2CF to do it, so. I could try remake Flipper Time or Vert Shredder, though getting the details right are a pain even with pics in my showcase

Also, for this tourney, I think you should release the SBV now, assuming you have made the splashes. Hosts are allowed to release SBV before they finish AI'ing, and they don't have to immediately release a vid with it. They can release in few days once they record and edit it

And talking about the SBV, waiting for people's reaction to my entry lol. And about it, can I just switch to another, IRL legal early MW, or one of my early IRL legal HW's for it?
