Clash Cubes 3 - Brackets & Videos

[Jack Daniels]

Hey Joe you linked the fights wrong. Fight 4 of heat 3 links to fight 3 of heat 3.

Yeah, just go to his youtube channel in the meantime... fight four of heat three is listed as the most recent one uploaded.  It is pretty epic too! Awesome fight!

[Madiaba]

That is the issue.  Viper's bot is truly nasty in an enclosed arena, but in an effective 'tabletop' arena it doesn't have the traction to not be pushed around by anything else with wheels...
I tried to mod an AI.py for it too, but no matter what I had it do it was like driving a car on ice. Nice bot, but wrong kind of bot for this arena.

[JoeBlo]

Joe, you are putting on a great tourney as usual.  I get the sense you are getting a bit burnt out, maybe just take a break for a bit and come back to this in a week or something?

this has already had enough lack of activity imo, I was probably more on edge last night at I was up at 2:30am trying to give you all more videos... 

if I make AI mistakes I will admit them, I did for 123 but I dislike the fact someone is telling me i am wrong when I have done everything but bend over backwards for them.... (its usually the "LRA2 Effect")

it seems Viper rather then wanting to understand the situation, feel the need to pull his robot out of the tournament, I will respect his wishes like I do everyone's if he so chooses.

I will press on but whatt I still find rather unbelievable is how this forum has progressed over a year, 1 year ago I made CC1, I was a n00b screwed up 50% of the robots AI's yet everyone still stayed happy and enjoyed.. not a single complaint from such (now it seems) obvious mistakes.... nowadays I feel I am at the highest peak of AIing ability and I get myself into more conflicts then ever.

what really happened to this place?     

[Viper89]

@JB I understand the situation crystal clear and I'm going to leave it at that. Thank you for respecting my wishes .

[Urjak]

what really happened to this place? 

That is a great question. There seems to be a growing number of conflicts during tournaments, and I have no idea why. This is the reason I am very hesitant about hosting a tournament. I just don't think people really respect what you are doing for them...

Well that's my 10 cents. 

[Little lost bot]

Joe your doing a grate job


some people are well lets say a little burned out, there's bin a couple tournaments and some have not gone well and when that happens, people get a bit more picky something like that.


Considering all the projects you are working on maybe its time to give your self a break, relax and when and only when you feel ready to continue start off slow.


Your (to me) sounding a bit burned out your self.


Just trying to help out thats all. As already said you are doing grate.

[Doomkiller]

Wow. I am actually in the lead for points. Seems wizet is really holding its own :D

Am I in heat 3? Internet has gone slow on me again and your website just isn't loading JB.

[JoeBlo]

yeah you the last robot of heat 3, you have a bye first round which is why your on top of the points

[Doomkiller]

Ah, that explains it ( was wondering why I was at 50 )

[cephalopod]

I just don't think people really respect what you are doing for them...

Put simply, they don't.

I appreciate that this stuff takes a lot of time and people don't realise how much work you've put into stuff for their enjoyment.

On a more competitive note,

FUUUUUU. Why did I enter that thing >.<

[JoeBlo]

Clickbeetle vs Condor33 is now up

I know... the second one was a close one though.. if only you didnt loose that hammer

really I shouldnt host tournaments.. I made friends with like everyone, I hate seeing anyone loose :P

[cephalopod]

Well, it doesn't really matter, I came up against the better builder XD

[Jonzu95]

Wow... I had luck! (Bye)

[G.K.]

@Craaig: I agree. For people like us who have done it, we know it is no easy undertaking. Admittedly, mine was nothing, but I understand how people feel more plainly than some others.

[Viper89]

Click vs.condor was cool I finally got to see how Click bot works. @ the people who said that I don't respect what JB has done for me in this tourney  you can keep your worthless opinions  to yourselfs because you have no idea what the your talking about, The reason why I dropped out had no relation what so ever to the AI discussion and thats the last thing I'm going to say about that subject. 

[lloopp D lloopp]

I literally went :O at the Click vs Condor match when "It" happened.

[JoeBlo]

@ the people who said that I don't respect what JB has done for me in this tourney  you can keep your worthless opinions  to yourselfs because you have no idea what the your talking about,

perhaps read back over everyone's posts before criticizing there lack of knowledge... nobody has singled you out within there comments... but it is true as a generalization the number of conflicts within tournament thread has great increased over the last year.

and becasue of that any further conflict posts will be immediately deleted from this thread with out any recognition that it was there...

[JoeBlo]

me vs ashman is now up

[Avalanche]

And that means we wont be able to dicuss so that is a fail. if you delete this, i will repost it.
