Yay.

BroBots

Stock LW
All in-game and AI components allowed except cheatbot2.
No custom components.
No multibots.
All building glitches allowed except BFE/AAM/Hax Mode.
Combat Arena, hazards off.
1 free havok restart per match if it seems it affected the match's outcome in a substantial way.
8 entrants will each submit two Brother Robots, or BroBots, for a total of 16 bots. When the splash is posted, you will PM me with the name of the bot you want to use against each specific opposing team should you happen to face them. Two entrants may also submit one bot each to work as a team, but then one of them must be designated as the PM'er. I will randomly pick your bots for each match if you do not PM me with your desired matchups before I start filming (but I'll give a reasonable time frame of at least 72 hours or so). The bot decisions may be edited as the tournament goes on, but are not guaranteed to always go through depending on how short of notice they are changed.
Submitted entries are final; no updates unless absolutely necessary. Both bots must be submitted at the same time.
If after 30 days, the sign-ups are not filled, the tournament will start anyway and blank spots will be filled with free byes.
Best 2 out of 3 Deathmatches, plus a Pity Rumble after the main bracket is done. Double elimination.
The Pity Rumble will be between the 2 entrants who are knocked out of the tournament after the first two rounds, i.e. never win a match. Both of Loser 1's bots will face both of Loser 2's bots in a team rumble for a "loser's winner".
Awards will include Tournament Winner, Pity Rumble Winner, Most Original, Coolest Looking, Favourite Match, Most Fearsome Brotherhood, and Unluckiest Brotherhood.

I will not be entering. I've always thought the idea of entering your own tournament was pretty weird. Basically what I was trying to aim at with this was to have a tournament where some strategy would also be involved. For example, if your opponent has entered a rammer and HS, and you have to choose between your VS and your hammer, you should probably go with the hammer.

Oh lawdy you're putting in a person to fight robots? THEY COULD GET KILLED D:

I might look and see if I have 2 good LW's.

Fracture · « **Reply #11 on:** November 03, 2011, 03:38:53 PM »

Sounds good guys. Mostly I was looking to see if anyone wanted a different weight class, but seems you like LW. Checkmark added.

Only 8 entries, so get your bots done early and ready for PMing!

OMG DO IT

Vote for this tournament you fools.

Also the rules have had a few tiny changes, but not much. I realized the Pity Rumble will actually only have two people in it in an 8-person double elimination bracket, and edited the awards.

Controlled movement and "cheaty AI" are both given rules, right? It doesn't seem like I'd have to include them up there, but if they do, someone tell me.

Damn, tis stock. If it was DSL i could have teamed up with LincK and we will have CRUSHED OUR ENEMIES, SEEN THEM DRIVEN BEFORE US AND HEAR THE LAMENTATION OF THEIR WOMEN.

Not going to join, as Stock LW is IMO one of the most mundane and unoriginal areas of building I know.

Mundane and unoriginal ? Try stock antweight.

I might join if I can find an original(-ish) idea.
