Title: Chinese Whispers Tourney Sign-ups
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on January 20, 2010, 10:59:38 AM

<<<SIGN-UPS NOW CLOSED>>>
Splash:[/size][/color]

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/75437CW%20SPWASH.png)

Rules:

1) You will be kept in the dark about your teammates until the bots have been AI'ed. Team size will depend on the amount of signups.
2) Depending on signups, 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. BFE armour c will be enforced.
6) The bots will be DSL heavyweights.
7) Custom Components are forbidden. The only extra components you will be allowed to use are AI parts that are not batteries, wheels, motors or weapons, and only on prior consent with myself or G.K.
8) Arena is G.K.'s Twiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisted Arena EDIT: Serge's Ring Arena
9) Signups will close in three weeks, so on the 21st of Februrary. Unlimited but may be stopped if too many join.
10)Those wishing to be Team Captains should PM me, I will then choose those who are capable. (Bribes of over £10,000 accepted)
11)This will probably be a mini tourney structure unless we only get 3 teams.

Yes I think so, TG (I meant him!) had a word with GK about him.

Post by: G.K. on January 25, 2010, 01:27:15 PM

Yes he is. He's also my friend IRL. Also, Thyrus, do you want to enter this?

Post by: Thyrus on January 25, 2010, 01:37:11 PM

I think it could be to hard for builders to share or combine theire building style with the style of another to make a combat effective robot since everyone has his own way to build a bot. But I could be wrong. I prefer to watch the whole thing from a distance.

I feel that all who enter have entered, also we have 16 people including 4 team captains.
SO, if no more entries, I will close sign-ups next Friday.
ALSO, I'm thinking of changing the arena, Maybe Serge's Ring Arena if he lets me and the camera angles are changed.

Team Captains have been decided, you can get to work on your chassis if you want. Sign-ups close at 18:00 GMT this Friday or when I get one more entry.

If you need 1 more, I can join and put a few random parts on it to mix things up.  People are going to hate me when I put servo pistons on the bot for no reason.

It will be cool if we keep track by taking screenshot of progress.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers Tourney Sign-ups

Don't worry too much then. Many famous human beings through the history of time have been perceived to be insane. There is a good chance you are probably using your brain far more than the average person.

If you learn to channel some of the energy into something that makes a statement (art, music, writing, building, etc etc) you will be surprised what you might create. Exploring your mind is a neverending journey and it all starts with stepping outside a box.

Title: Re: Chinese Whispers Tourney Sign-ups
Post by: JoeBlo on February 11, 2010, 10:48:41 PM

team captain makes chassis

team members adds on a particular amount of components

next member does the same.. so on.. so on utill the robot has hit 800kg

team captain gets robot back, skins/ names it

robots are then AI'd and fight like normal

UPDATE: Were most of the way through the building phase but some people obviously didn't read the rules. (i.e. it's DSL not stock and you don't make the WHOLE bot)

HOWEVER: My computer will now not start up either due to NarAI 2.2 download, Me just updating adobe flash player or a virus.
Luckily G.K. has all the bots and will be able to take over if worst come to worst.
