Title: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 03, 2011, 07:31:46 AM

                                                                          (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/99214CW2 Logo.png)

1) You will be kept in the dark about your teammates until the bots have been AI'ed.
2) You will be limited in the weight of components you are allowed to put onto your bot.
3) You may not remove components your teammates have placed, only rotate them.
4) The team captain will name and skin the bots once it is completed, and create the chassis at the start.
5) Under no circumstances may you BFE, AAM or ZeroG your bot. All building must be done in the bot lab.
6) The bots will be DSL middleweights.
7) Custom Components are forbidden. (Except Smartzones and Fridges)
8) No "Narmour" or other cheaty collision components (Typhoon flags etc.)
9) Arena is Serge's Ring Arena
10) I hope to have 16 entrants (4 in each team)
11)Those wishing to be Team Captains should PM me, I will then choose those who are capable. (Bribes of over £10,000 accepted)
12)Round robin style, all fight all
13) I need 4 "Backup builders" to standby if anyone bails out.
14) It would be nice for the leaders to AI but I can if necessary.

Once signups close the 4 team captains will be chosen. They will be the builders I judge most capable of leading or those who persuade me the best. The remaining 12 entrants will be divided into teams of 3 using random.org but they will not be informed of teams. The leader will build the chassis and send to me, the remaining weight will be divided by four and the bot passed to the first member. They must add up to the weight alloted but no more than that 10 kg less an then they will send back to me. Then I will repeat, dividing by 3 and sending to next person (same rules) then the same for the last two. The leader will then skin the bot and return it to me. A 1 week time limit will be set for each build section, I will make exceptions for uncontrollable events (like holidays) but if people are excessively long then will be replaced by "backup builders".

1. G.K. (Captain)
2. Scorpion
3. SKBT
4. NFX
5. Vertigo (Captain)
6. Enigma
7. martymidget
8. Gazea2
9. Craaig (Captain)
10. Naryar (Captain)
11. russian roulette
12. 090901
13. Urjak
14. Ben Purse
15. Scrap Daddy
16. Pwnator

You'd need to be a main entrant Jonzu, the main list is full.

Post by: JoeBlo on January 04, 2011, 08:47:13 AM

hey S_M.. I have decided to let you do something special just do to the way CW works

would you like captains to not count to your 16 limit ? so each team is captain + 4 team mates

up to you but just because you have past success in hosting and your tournament works out really only a 4 robot bracket?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 04, 2011, 11:30:17 AM

Not really Joe, because they need to build 1/4th of the bot anyway. So Captain + 3 teammates (x4) and then 4 reserve builders.
@Jonzu, sorry but signups are full. You can be 1st reserve builder if you like though.

Also, can someone else become a captain so we can get on with this *Looks at the Vets and AUs*

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups

I could be a captain.

Can you please be a reserve?

Ok

Fine, I'll do captain.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 04, 2011, 12:59:43 PM

Teams randomised, captains can now make chassis (with chassis armour set) and send to me. You have 1 week.
Reserve spots are still open also.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Vertigo on January 04, 2011, 01:02:19 PM

Can the chasis armour be changed later on?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 04, 2011, 01:04:25 PM

No, as this will affect weight allowed by each builder. (I found this out in the test run)

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups

Are we allowed to put a hidden message for team mates in the name? :P

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 04, 2011, 01:35:11 PM

Just as a quick note: please make a start as soon as you have time so as to reduce total building time. (It's nice not to have to wait for one team for ages right at the end)

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Ben Purse on January 05, 2011, 03:45:31 AM

Who are the teams?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Naryar on January 05, 2011, 03:49:56 AM

Like in CW1, we will not know what the teams are until the bots are built.

2 bots are nearly done, two have got nowhere...
I will soon have to start using my backup builders.

Yes, I am aware this looks like another excuse to calm you down, and that I might not follow it as a chaotic. I just has lost interest in that game really.

Nary is officially late, if he doesn't hurry up, I'll call in a backup.

Oh, I thought last day was tomorrow. Must be confusing with the other tournaments I'm on.

Will build... but obviously when some dumbass uses dual Mag Snappers on a MW... heck, one BSG on a HW and now 2 Mag Snappers on a MW ?

Edit: OK, it is now built. Must now use InvertOmni to make it worthwhile.

I won't be able to check until tomorrow morning.

Sweet, we'll get this thing going soon. =) May we now speculate as to who is on what team?

Thanks Naryar for calling me dumbass.

So now, skilled builders are screwing up bots for their team. Great.

Damnit jonzu, why ? You KNOW Mag Snappers are a waste on popups !

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: NFX on February 26, 2011, 04:07:12 PM

So Naryar has a popup? Interesting.

I wonder if Badnik is on the same team. I thought Badnik and GK were on the same team, then I remembered that S_M and GK went to the same school.

Nary... It can't be as bad as what I got sent. Seriously. I made a good popup chassis...and... yeeah... I think I must've got some trolls.

Craaig's bot is hilarious.

So S_M may have inadvertently let some details slip. Just when Badnik said "Someone used a fail component", then you said "I know what it is".

It's cool, maybe I just read too much into it. I just hope my excellent platform wasn't given to a noob.

Post by: martymidget on February 26, 2011, 04:53:59 PM

I wonder what became of the chassis I got given...

Finding out soon, I guess. :P

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on February 27, 2011, 03:56:33 AM

Well I got nothing...

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 27, 2011, 05:35:19 AM

Hey Nary, BSG's didn't fit into the chassis so I used Mags.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups

WAIT, Jonzu removed 2 ants!

I thought removing batteries was allowed...?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: NFX on February 27, 2011, 06:23:22 AM

Nope. You can't remove stuff, otherwise the last person will completely empty the chassis and build what they wanted to build, thus negating the point of the tournament.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: cephalopod on February 27, 2011, 09:01:34 AM

Yeah. If we could remove stuff, believe me, what I ended up with wouldn't be half as bad >.<


Would it be bad to be controversial and say disqualify the team? I mean... how long has it taken...

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: G.K. on February 27, 2011, 09:19:11 AM

Just enter the bot in its stage prior to Jonzu's additions

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on February 27, 2011, 09:30:54 AM

It would be best to start again from Jonzu's stage but that would take another 4 weeks. I feel it will be fine as those batteries were added again later and it hardly affects the bot.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: NFX on February 27, 2011, 09:33:09 AM

That's okay, I guess. Probably time to get this thing moving along.

People would also definitely know what team they're in if their bot came back round :L

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on February 27, 2011, 10:34:26 AM

Yeah, another dilemma. Anyway, let's chant for Naryar.

"WAKE UP NARY!!!!"

lol naryar STILL hasn't sent anything?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Naryar on February 27, 2011, 12:36:32 PM

I slept in the morning and then went to the bathes in Baden-Baden :P

Imma send the bot now, and a fixed version later.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: cephalopod on February 27, 2011, 01:02:32 PM

A fixed version later, and not-ready-on now? The only thing we need for the splash/tourney is your fixed version :P

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on February 27, 2011, 01:26:55 PM

Got it, is this you final bot? I can't do the splash until I have the final one...
BTW, does anyone have a clue how RA2GE works?

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Naryar on February 27, 2011, 01:55:07 PM

Yeah this is my final bot. I need to skin it and AI it though.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on February 27, 2011, 01:57:12 PM

OK, so I will now show all but Nary's team's splashes! (Nary's will come after skin arrives)

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers 2: Middleweight Signups
Post by: G.K. on February 27, 2011, 02:00:48 PM

I can't wait till people see Craaig's bot.
