You might want to think this through more. It will be dominated by whoever finds the best loophole or whoever had the farthest reach on their VS.

Anyways this seems like the prefect tourney for Spinoff because it would be able to pluck out those 400 HP weapon motors. :P

Wait, so if you use a DSL disk you can't put on any weapons?

Bad idea

Maybe it would be best to take a break after HA?

That, and I've just noticed that the Postman Pat logo utilises the same font as the BT logo.

Another one with different rules that restrict the 'Do it right' way. If this goes through I may crank something out for this.

So this is basically a sawbot tournament... with the same name as my own sawbot team...

And your rules are not clear enough.

(Sorry, I had to be at school. :P)

I wanted to be able to explain Rule #4 in a separate post.

Got it now? (P.S., your bots obviously need wheels and batteries and a control board, The "Acceptable" and "Not Acceptable" were STRICTLY about the weapon systems).

Ah, I see. They have to grind, not thwack. Seems a little bit unusual, though, in that every bot MUST be a VS. If this does get through, I'll see what I can come up with.

Are diagonal spinners allowed if they have a VS-like appearance?

Post by: freeziez on April 08, 2011, 04:16:27 PM
Yes, but can be rotated no more horizontal than 45o, and have to meet the standards above.

This is going to end up being a wedge war IMO.  Even more so than other tournaments.


Honestly I would rather have you resurrect Tourney of Awesomeness... :rolleyes:
