Pretty confident.

Urjak's bot is unrealistic though, I think. What is would the chassis height be if you cut off a bit off the bot to make it realistic?

Also, super work Joe!

Silly Russian Roulette, it's Istanbul, not Constantinople.
And that is a very nice splash Joeblo.

Looks like some awesome bots in the mix. My favourite is probably Cube Or Cuboid.

I reckon I might be in with a decent chance, my biggest worry might be VS's, though.

Ok, this is kinda worrying now. My wedges s-s-s-s-uuuuuck and I'm helpless to all these fast rammers. Probably gonna lose in the first or second round.

Same here.

I built my robot in under an hour, so I can't say much about it. I don't think it's the worst SNS in this, but it's not the best either.

It's not that the disc goes through the chassis, it's that if the top of the chassis was lowered, the half-sheet wouldn't be attachable.

nice splash. will see how the tournament will go.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on March 03, 2011, 10:44:37 AM
I addressed this ages ago....

1. nothing occupies the space the disc crosses

2. if you push it down to the minimum height the disc just clears

Both combined makes it legal enough so you can all stop before you blow it out of proportion... some other robots are worse... just not so obvious.

Minimum height of what?
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on March 03, 2011, 10:50:36 AM
The minimum height to attach to the baseplate.. manually setting it in the bot file is low enough.

I must have missed it where you said if you lowered the height it was ok. Sorry.

Post by: NFX on March 03, 2011, 10:54:40 AM
I guess if it was accepted it must have been okay. I think I remember him telling me that one of my razors nicked a battery or something, so I can't really complain about minor unrealism.

You never know, he might have, he might not. It's always good to question.

Also, I'm surprised I'm the only side hammer.

Post by: Badnik96 on March 03, 2011, 03:01:04 PM
PREDICTION TIEM

CubeShark 2: Certainly not the worst. I dunno how it will fare against wedges though.
Some Bacon From Canada: Motors are too exposed for my liking. Shouldn't do too well.
LW- SnSnS: Will be hard to kill. Popups will murder it however.
Zombi13: I hope it won't do too bad, too many VS and popups here for my liking...
Ya Flippin' Cube: Depends on wedges but we'll see.
Thwack: It's from Click. Should do as well as any of Click's bots.
Mad Mod: Too fast for my liking. Not the worst here though.
WTF, Mate?!: Will pull many Rage III's.
Orange^3: Looks powerful. I like.
Exile's Return: Not gonna flip very high...
Dharak: Not horrible. will lose to the hammer VS's and FSS though.
The Good Doctor: Although it is the coolest-looking bot here, it is the worst in terms of combat effectiveness. One of the 5 SFTW's here.
Mothbite Evo X4: Props for entering a side hammer but wedge will fail and the extenders will be torn off in a heartbeat.
The Epic: Doesn't really NEED 2 metal hinges but if it's worth it it will be one to watch.
Fretless: Another average flipper (albeit fast). Should do OK.
Mr. Yummy: Second SFTW. It will spin so slowly it won't be funny.
Green Pea: Decent for a non-member. How well will it do against wedges though?
Minor Conflict: Hot bad. Reminds me of Iron Spaghetti.
Cube Plough: Third SFTW. WTF was Horror thinking?!
Hydromobile From the West: Fourth SFTW but it isn't the worst.
Xception: Looks interesting. Can't wait to see it fight.
Cactus Panda: Looks awesome and well-protected. Should do well if that wedge is good.
Dark Fusion: Could be slower with more weapons but looks stable. Could be a nice gut-ripper.
Forever Alone: Not horrible. Might win 1 or 2 matches.
Face Slasher: If it's invertible it might be a threat like its bigger brother was. If not, then it will fail.
Silver Devil: If that wedge is good then it will be deadly.
Stripey Cube: 5th and final SFTW. No wedge and huge ground clearance but not as bad as Horror's bot.
(X+1): Looks interesting. How will it do in combat I can't really be sure.
All-American: Not horrible. It might get a razor guy run like F_C did in BBEANS.
Kobalos: If the wedge is good it will own.
Krypton 2:Weapon setup fails. IDK about this one...
Wheels Are Tasty: KLONE (J/K) but it looks effective.
Tiger Uppercut: Another wedge dependent bot. Knowing Nar they will be good.
Triturator: Don't see much purpose for the VS. But then again, what do I know about weapon setups?
Skrillex 2: Another fast wammer. Could win 3 matches, could win none. It all depends on the luck of the draw.
Precision Impact 2: Besides the useless pole spike on the back, it doesn't look bad. Might win a match or two.
Rubik: HORRIBLE weapon setup but for a trapper it isn't 100% bad.
Mirror Matter: Knowing Pwn, it will......pwn. :trollface
FireAnt: Looks kewl. Another cube popup. Maybe I should have entered FoF...
Mini Metal Man: Sawbot? Interesting...
Cube or Cuboid: Cube AoN? Kewl. Could pull some upsets here...
Constantinople: Aww RR didn't get to send the updated version. It will fail.
Jaws of Defeat: Looks fast. Could pull a Rage III or two.
Mini Minesweeper: F*** YEAH! What's the purpose of angles drive however?
Halcyon: That drive looks hecka exposed.
Lil' Cubezorz: WTF? Well, it looks like Sage wins in terms of most weaponry on a LW VS. However, there are FSS to kill it...
Garrote: Nice FS. Should do OK.
SnSnSnS 6: Sadly not a SNS/HS. (at least there's 123) I dunno about Overkill blades either...
Satan's Hard Drive: Sparkey actually built something decent for once. Props to him. However, it looks damn havoky...
Force 2.6 Beta: Nice SnS. If the weapons don't touch the ground it should do OK.
RISK: Not the worst. Is a dual VS really practical in the LW division though?
Hazardous Area: Again, I'm not really sure you really need 2 metal hinges for a LW, but if it's worth it it will be a dark horse.
Im Back: Weapons are touching the ground. If a popup gets to the back, it's toast. Not a bad HS though.
Shilka II: Could win a few fights on sheer weaponry. But I dunno...
Deadly Pointer V3: TONS of weapons. Looks kinda slow however...
Soul Provider: Same as Shilka II. I dunno how it will do.
Urjak: Holy crap. This beast will DOMINATE the competition. I can only see it really losing to a flipper or either Linck or R0B0.
Vertigo: Not bad, should do OK.
Disaster Box: Looks cooler than FoF, has the same amount of weapons though. Dunno about those stabilizers though...
BURNING WAFFLE: It's... OK. Could be MUCH better however.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: TeamXtreemer on March 03, 2011, 03:17:27 PM
My predictions.
027: Not too good, sorry.
090901: Quite decent.
123: If it moved Ok, then good bot.
Badnik: If its a shell spinner then it'l go pretty far.
Buble: Decent, Im not a fan of flippers but its a good bot.
Click: Those Extenders Look Abit Exposed :/
Conra: If its a popup, good, if not, then it depends if its effective.
Coolrunner: This Is A SFTW Unless The Arena Is Like CCIII's
Craaig: <3, May be a bit unstable or may have some weak points but should go far.
70Cuda: I'm liking the theory behind the design but looks a bit SFTW-ish... Sorry mate
Dkiller: <3, But the other side of the disk :/
Enigma: Nice Jokebot but im seeing that thing getting mullered.
Fotep: Its Okay, yeah, but the back is exposed...
Freez: It Looks like it may tip onto it's back but looks okay other than that
GK: Quite a nice bot, but looks a bit generic, and i'm seeing a pattern here, Sheck panel flippers 0_o
GRW: Meh, Generic, Sorry.
Guitar: Nice Bot Man :) Looks Prone To Being Outwedged though...
Hard Bot: Outwedged again :/ but apart fromthat, looks a bit generic.
Horror: SFTW, Sorry.
Hydro: See Above.
Joeblo: <3, The Back Motors Look A Bit Exposed Though, One Or Two Good Hits And You've Got No Drive :/

Kill: Looks Like Its Going To Get Outweaponed...
Loop: Again, Generic...
Linick: Generic, Yes, But Had Potential NTL...
Lukeus: SFTW. Sorry...
Martyy: That Extender Work Might Get Taken Off, But Looks Pretty Nice :)
MNB: A Bit Generic Boot Looks Like It Could Go Pretty Far :)
MNCR: Looks Intriguing, I'm Going To Be Watching This One...
Massimo: This One Is One To Watch.
NFX: Sort of Generic :/ But Has A Lot Of Potential...
Nary: Looks Nice :) But Again A Bit Generic :/
Ounce: One To Watch. Will Go Far.
PR: That Extender Work Is Going Down.
Pressure: The Motors, Are Very Exposed... But Looks Like It Has Some Potential...
Prey: Could Get Hit From Behind Easily, It Depends On The Speed Really.
Pwn: <3? Maybe, But Looks Unstable...
Robo: Nice Bot, Maybe A Bit Generic Bot Has Potential.
R1885: Meh...
Red: Back Protection... There Is None. That Chassis Is Exposed @ The Back & So Are The Motors.
Russian Roulette: It Looks Pretty Weak... Might Be Able To Push Over Some Of The SFTW Cantidates But Thats It Really...
SKBT: No Moar Razorz, Looks Really Good. Will Go Far.
SSG: Goood Bot I Say, But The Angled Motors May Lose Speed And Back Protection.
STC: Again, The Back, But Apart From That, Looks Rather Good.
Sage: No Idea What It Is, But If Its A VS, It Will Do Pretty Well.
SD: You Havent Left Any Plaes Unprotected :) Looks Good But Could Do With SOme More Weapons Maybe?
Somebody: I Dislike The SNS Type But It Looks Decent.
Sypher: Maybe One To Watch, With A Good Name Choice Too, But Useless Against Wedges.
SM: Hammers Will Muller It But Looks Decent.
Scorps: Mhm, Looks Pretty Good :) But The Low HP Weapons May Be Trouble...
Stag: May be Havok Prone But Looks Like A Pretty Good Bot Mate :)
Me: Those Motors Will Probs Get Creamed But Whatever.
Temi: Thats Too Small... Looks Havok prone And The Back Is Unprotected :( Sorry Man, But May Have Some Potential...
Timothy: Looks Okay. Its Generic...
Trumpets: Will Maul Some Bots But Again, The Back...
Urjak: Well The Wedge Problem Wont Be So Bad, But Might Get Beat By Hammer, Other Than That, Will Go Tretty Far, Good Bot :)
Vert: Size Looks An Issue And Again, The Back, But Apart From That, Has Potential...
VB: Looks A But Unstable And The Back Again... But May Be One To Watch...
Waffle: SFTW Cantidate, Sorry.

Wheels Are Tasty: KLONE (J/K) but it looks effective.

As I predicted. =D Didn't have much in the way of decent LW's around, so I tweaked Wheels Are Tasty enough to make it into a Final Z ripoff. But hey, it's better than the sack of crap that was Zombie Pirate Ninja. That was to me what Preytor's entry is to him now.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: Naryar on March 03, 2011, 05:56:40 PM
Lets us see: PREDICTIONS

CubeShark2: Big and faily, not the worst bot though
Some Bacon From Canada: OK bot, not the best HS though. The perm's probably gonna go soon.
SnSnS: I predict something mighty unstable
Zombi13: Hey, that's not yet another Final Z :P Anyways, it just looks like a Bane ripoff. Probably good, but we'll see.
Ya Flippin' Cube: Very average flipper, after all Bubbleman thinks "decent" building is good enough am I right ? The wedge looks faily, as well as the drive.
Thwack*Thwack*Thwack: Depends on how it works. I'm going to guess it rams first and SnSpins later. Can end OOTA fairly quickly however.
Mad Mod: Not even enough weapons to be good. Though bonus points for entering a wammer.
WTF, Mate!?: Indeed.
Orange^3: Now that is a surprise... will see how it fares, though Craaig doesn't seems to do really well lately
Exile's Return: Again another average flipper, with bad weapon/flipper setup overall
Dharak: Decent design.
Enigma: Well... artbot in CCIV ? Seems like a waste
Mothbite EvoX4: Decent bot, though against wedges... We will see if FOTEPX can start to get wins, or stick to his bad tournament record.
The Epic: Too slow to be truly good, can win against most of the less wedgy bots though
Fretless: MOAR FLIPPERS. The weapon setup, while original, doesn't seems that good though.
Mr.Yummy: Fail bot, way too slow and too much extender work to be good
Green Pea: Pretty decent build, might go OOTA quite soon though
Minor Conflict: Not truly bad, but not very good as well... why so tall, for one ?
Cube Plough: :SFTW
Hydromobile from the west: Yeaaaah... it's not even a good SFTW replica
Xception: Probably the most original bot there, probably good as well. Will get trashed by a decent shell though
Cactus Panda: LOL WUT.
Dark Fusion: Cool concept, not wedgy enough and not enough turnspeed to make it work well though
Forever Alone: "Meh" extender work. It's quite unique but is gonna be outweaponed quickly.
Face Slasher: Not bad, could have been made better though
Silver Devil: Honestly I was expecting better from Linck. It hasn't enough drive and is just too big to work well. Though it may pull a razor g... i mean Missile Test run.
Stripy Cube: And that's what you get when you let enter random noobs in tournaments.
*random third degree equation*: Decent bot, kinda slow though.
All-American: This is way too slow to be good. At least it's better than GRW's cause it's invertible.
Kobalos: SO SLOW FOR A LW POPUP
Krypton Z: Wedged hammers like that fail. Generally. It's not bad though but the design's just not combat efficient.
Wheels are Tasty IV: If nothing hits the Mag, it will be fine. If something hits it however...
Tiger Uppercut: Obviously not my best :P Also MOAR FLIPPERS.
Triturator: My favorite bot, period.
SkRillExZ: Yet again, another wammer with not enough weapons
Precision Impact 2: Badly built, but somehow it is better than the rest of the rabble.
Rubik: Meh. Weapon setup is messy and no wedge... probably won't fair well unless against the rabble.
Mirror Matter: Let's see how will this last without going on spikeball mode. Obviously one of the better builds still.
Fire Ant: Now this is how you build a LW popup with a cube.
Mini Metal Man: It doesn't looks very good.
Cube or Cuboid: OK rammer.
Constantinople: Will fail quickly. And yes, Constantinople DOES sound better than Istanbul.
Jaws of Defeat 3: Pretty good, i'm quite sure it could have been done better though.
Mini Minesweeper: HELL YES. Pretty good bot in fact.
Halcyon: It does look too long to be good... but IDK really. And Plastic sheets as armor...
Lil'Cubzorz: Unsure about how good it is really
Garrote: I don't know what is truly better overall, this or Minesweeper ? Pretty good build as usual coming from scrap.
SnSnSnS 6: Will fail. Probably. Never seen any good coming out of using these weapons for damage.
Satan's Hard Drive: Decent, if generic, bot
Force 2.6 Beta: Isn't that an obvious ripoff of 123's ?
Risk: OK bot, nothing really great about it. Lack of wedge will probably be it's downfall.
Hazardous Area: MOAR FLIPPERS ! Pretty good in fact, maybe even better than mine... though for the wedge... we will see.
Im Back: Way to waste weight on the small teeth at the back of the bot.
Shilka 2: It's alright, but lack of wedge and lack of invertibility will probably kill this.
Deadly Pointer v3: Average rammer
Soul Provider: It's alright. Nothing to see here really
Bane Revolution II: Probably the best shell here.
Iron Star 2.4: Not the best weapon choice, but alright in overall
Disaster Box: See that other VS which is quite similar.
Burning Waffle: sh**, as most of Waffle's bots.

You really like it Naryar?  It's honestly crap!

OK it might win a few matches, but if it comes up against a half-decent wedge, SnS or FSS it's screwed.  Oh well, it's what happens when you've had no ideas for months.

As long as R0B0SH4RK doesn't eliminate me in Round 2 of the Loser's bracket for the third time, then I'm okay. I reckon I can win two or three matches, depending on the draw.

Also, 123, Somebody, Urjak and myself are the only competitors with a diagonal chassis. :gawe:

Post by: JoeBlo on March 03, 2011, 08:19:00 PM
Fire Ant... I'd keep an eye on it.. thats all im saying..

Also, 123, Somebody, Urjak and myself are the only competitors with a diagonal chassis. :gawe:

Pwnator was the first and only 1 in CC3 so this is an improvement of thinking more outside the box with the chassis (no pun intended)

Deffinently agree. Joe said it was unrealistic wen I had a true popup setup. So I switched it.

the row of weapons cut the front wedge out completely as if it would be non existent.. you could have bunched up your weapons closer so they didnt cut the whole wedge off.. ;)

You know, I technically still have my one upgrade left...

Even though the update period closed around a month ago? :P

Thanks for the compliment.  The wheels are the Clash Cubes super grippy wheel that I won in the last tournament. 

After looking at all the bots... I realize that Cactus Panda is severely outweaponed.

Should have followed the predictable trend and made a flipper.  :P

Ya Flippin' Cube: Very average flipper, after all Bubbleman thinks "decent" building is good enough am I right ? The wedge looks faily, as well as the drive.
Yes, Yes i do. And i am proud to think Decent building is good enough. (Well, its good enough for me anyway :P)

Did well in testing, so we shall see

As long as R0B0SH4RK doesn't eliminate me in Round 2 of the Loser's bracket for the third time, then I'm okay. I reckon I can win two or three matches, depending on the draw.

Also, 123, Somebody, Urjak and myself are the only competitors with a diagonal chassis. :gawe:

(http://pleasedress.me/img/3472.gif)
 
 
Don't worry NFX, I won't be a jerk about it. I'll thrash you in the winners bracket instead, and if you somehow drag yourself out of the depths of loser-dom, I'll crush you once again in the finals  :gawe:
 
 
Y'know, just 'cuz I'm a nice guy.
 
*cough*
 
Being serious now, I'm really pleased with the relative diversity of bot types in this tourney. So it should be fun. Best of luck to all the SFTW's, and I hope everybody else loses to an Insult to Injury (or me. Actually, preferably me.).
 
MY FAVOURITES (NOT who I think will do well):
Thwack*Thwack*Thwack - Clickbeetle (Reminds me of my childhood watching Blade Runner on Battlebots... *nostalgia*)
WTF, Mate!? - CoolRunner (Oh god, I love where these matches are going: OOTA.)
The Good Doctor - Enigma (Doctor Inferno Jr! *more nostalgia*)
Hydromobile From The West - Hydro (Something about the name "Hydromobile* makes me lol)
Xception - JoeBlo (As always with Joe, I like the creativity)
Cactus Panda - Jack Daniels (I'm intrigued by the possibility of it doing well. I can see a Razor Guy run out of this)
x^3-5x^2+2x+8 - MartyMidget (Just because of the name. I hope to god I've expressed it right over  <--there)
Istanbul - RussianRoulette (This bot is going to be the total of the tourney. JUST. WON'T. DIE.)
Garrote - Scrap Daddy (Coolest looking FS by far)
 
WHO TO WATCH FOR (who I DO think will do well, in no particular order):
Disaster Box - Virus Bomb (I'm really liking the wiiiiiiide stance)
Gay-ne Revolution II - Urjak (lol u c wut i did thar??)
Hazardous Area - Stagfish (The best flipper... IF it has enough batteries)
Garrote - Scrap Daddy (Good armour, invertible)
Mirror Matter - Pwnator (Looks stable, wedgey, powerful)
Tiger Uppercut - Naryar (Quick flipper, can easily OOTA bots if it doesn't lose its wheels)
Wheels Are Tasty 4 1/2 - NFX (Have to say, I am skeptical. But, rarely is it wise to vote against flail spinners)
Silver Devil - LiNcK (Well protected and just fast enough to be a threat to most bots)
 
 
 
Also, @Joe: Why isn't my very slightly updated version of Fire Ant in the splash? I sent it to you basically right after the first one.

Most likely the pics were taken before the updated one and I didnt think that far ahead :P (Pics were taken ages ago)

Dont stress though the updated one is present in my game.. I saved all the bot files in the robot designs folder with the files named the builders names.. if you updated I overwrote the old.

I will double check but im 99% sure I already have it in..

Also I forgot to apologize for the fact Polycarb showed up quite green on the splash for everyone :P

Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on March 04, 2011, 04:22:47 AM
Does Space arena have a green background? I didnt know :P

Why would I use Space arena for DSL robots anyway ?

Anyway I just picked a colour for the program I used to cut away with.. it had to not conflict with any skins or anything so I went light green but it showed up too green for my liking when put on the splash

But thats 100 pics I would have to redo so you guys can just live with green polycarb :P

I just used a very light gray for the background. As long as there's no gradient, I don't have trouble cutting in Paint.NET at all.

It's cool, it's really only because you've eliminated me from the tournament in Round 2 of the Loser's Bracket twice before. =] I'm sure we'll both do better than that this time around, though, yours looks like it could go all the way.
 
I'm gonna try to give my opinion on all the machines here.
 
CubeShark 2 - Not going to go very far, unfortunately, there's quite a few ways this could be improved.
Some Bacond From Canada - Your typical undercutting HS. Although it doesn't look invertible to me, and it's probably going OOTA against a good flipper.
LW-SnSnS - An excellent design from 123, though I'm not sure about the weapon choice. Could be one of the dark horses.
Zombi13 - Not sure what the razor on top is doing, but FSS generally do well. Perhaps the weapon layout could have been done slightly better.
Ya Flippin' Cube - Some funky-looking extender work going on at thr front, but it's a double BSG flipper, so it should do well depending on wedginess.
Thwack*Thwack*Thwack - I thought click said it had an axle on it? Still a very interesting design, and I can't wait to see this in action.
Mad Mod - Exposed weapon extenders might be a problem, but it looks nippy. If they hold up, it could pull one or two surprises.
WTF,Mate!? - Indeed. Too fast for its own good. Makes quite a good launch ramp, though.
Orange^3 - Looks very deadly. Here's hoping it does better than BBEANS 6.
EXILE'S RETURN - A nice take on the Cube Flipper, in my view, depends on the wedginess again. Very nice design, though.
Dharak - Angled VS, I think this looks quite good. I reckon it could go quite far.
The Good Doctor - Fail, but it's so adorable that I don't care. <3
Mothbite EvoX4 - Nice job making a LW Side Hammer, but it's wedge looks suspect, and the extenders do look vulnerable. Maybe a couple of wins.
The Epic - Possibly an upset or two? Wedges look okay, but it's lack of weaponry might let it down.
Fretless - Looks like it could go far, this one. Side Panels seem to interfere with the wedginess to me, but the proof is in the pudding.
Mr. Yummy - I can't see this going too far. Too slow for an SnS, not enough reach, and a lack of invertibility are going to hurt it badly.
Green Pea - As long as it's balanced, I reckon it could do fairly well. May pull off one or two surprises.
Minor Conflict - Somewhat too tall for an FSS. May pull out an upset, but I wouldn't put my money on this one.
Cube Plough - SFTW. That is all.
Hydromobile From The West - Hmm. Looks hopeless, and it probably will be. But at least it knows it's hopeless.
Xception - One of the coolest bots in the tourney. Knowing JoeBlo, it should win at least a couple of fights, and it will look awesome in death.
Cactus Panda - LW Drum? Very curious design, especially with the Ronin Flags on top (5HP, IIRC?). May be capable of a couple of wins, but I'm not too sure.
Dark Fusion - I like the design of this. Possibly could use a bit more weaponry, and I don't know about self-righting at all, but it could pull a few surprises.
Forever Alone - I've forgotten what this does, is it a rammer? If it is, I think some better weapons could have been chosen, but it should win at least one match.
Face Slasher - Interesting idea, but I don't think Piglet Sawblades are a good choice. We saw that in BBEANS 6.
Silver Devil - One to watch, for sure. Certainly capable of making the final, but it all rests on that wedge. (Like it does for every popup)
Stripy Dube - Nice gimmick, but...no. Most likely heading out of the competition very early.
(x+1)(x-2)(x-4) - Another one of my favourites. Angled HS, looks a bit unusual. Should win a couple matched, but will be trashed by the popups going around.
All-American - Nice use of the LX Motors. Not sure about the extender setup, and it looks a bit slow to me. Maybe one or two matches if it's lucky.
Kobalos - Excellent design, but it looks much too slow. Maybe it can pull a Missile Test, we'll have to wait and see.
Krypton 2 - Looks alright, this one. Extenders look quite fragile, but it could do well, I think it's one to look out for.
Wheels Are Tasty 4 1/2 - What can I say? I turned in a Final Z klone. As long as nothing hits the Mag, I should do quite well.
Tiger Uppercut - No razors...? Nice looking flipper, though, and knowing Nar, it'll be wedgy as heck. Should go quite far.
Triturator - Obscure name, but very nice looking bot. One of my favourite designs, and it should win a couple of matches, but will lose to anything with a wedge, really.
SkRillEX2 - Very flimsy extender work. Looks like it could do alright, but I'm not holding too many hopes for it.
Precision Impact 2 - Dual Mag sucks, if I remember rightly. Very curious design, and I'm not sure it'll win much.
Rubik - Those ARE Beater Bars. I don't think it'll do very well, personally, but it could upset a couple of members.
Mirror Matter - Looks very nice, although wedges and VS tend not to mix. And it might be a bit too fast. We'll have to wait and see on this one.
Fire Ant - As I said earlier, probably my tip to win. Not much else I can really say about it, and good luck should we meet up along the line.
Mini Metal Man - Strange, but it could prove oddly effective. Might spring a couple of surprises on the competition.
Cube Or Cuboid - AON as a cube, I should've seen that earlier. I like the design very much, and I hope it does do well here.
Constanstinople - Spellcheck much? =P Will proabably be annoying as heck and refuse to die, but could be OOTA'd easily, and I'm not too sure about the weaponry. May possibly do alright, though.
Jaws Of Defeat 3 - Wedges will kill it easily, but I think it could do well against almost everything else, maybe even VS. Could be another dark horse.
Mini Minesweeper - Hooray! Very nice design, but I'm not sure about wedginess. I reckon it might do okay, though, should win a couple of fights.
Halcyon - Could be very wedgy, and could surprise a lot of people. Motors look to be angled poorly, though, and could be gone quite quickly if someone gets a run at them.
Lil' Cubezorz - I like this design. Might not be that effective, but it's definitely unique. I think it could win one or two fights as well.
Garrote - I think it's a brilliant design, but I'm a Side Panel whore. I think it could do quite well, however, as long as it doesn't meet anything too wedgy.
SnSnSnS 6 - Very odd weapon of choice. And the motor positioning looks wierd as heck. I won't discount it yet, though, it could be one to watch out for.
Satan's Hard Drive - Your typical Flail Sheck Spinner, and a surprisingly good entry from ol' Sparkey. Could actually do quite well, as long it's not especially Havoky.
Force 2.6 Beta - I like the look of this, personally. Could actually do very well if luck is on its side.
RISK - Odd weapon setup, and I'd have angled them inwards, personally. Lack of wedge will come back to bite it, however.
Hazardous Area - Looks effective, maybe could have used stronger flipper panels. Should be a strong contender, though.
Im Back - Looks okay at first glance, but I think it's too fast, the extenders at the back seem out of place, and the weaponry's dragging along the floor, so...unfortunately, I can't see it doing too well.
Shilka II - Interesting, to say the least. Could be a surprise, depending on how wedgy it is.
Deadly Pointer v3 - I KNEW someone would enter a wall. As with all walls, it should last a lifetime and do very well against anything that isn't a wedge. Until it gets flipped over.
Soul Provider - Quite an interesting design, I think. Maybe the weapons are a bit far apart, but I think it could win a couple of matches.
Bane Revolution II - Looks very deadly. As long as it stays balanced, I think this could go all the way.
Iron Star 2.4 - Typically, Irons aren't that good, but aside from that, it looks like an alright design. Wedges remain to be seen.
Disaster Box - Very nice looking VS. This could also be one to watch, although popups might be quick to kill it, and stability could be an issue if it's not careful.
BURNING WAFFLE - Yeah, it's not particularly great, is it? Weapon setup's not best, and I don't think it's invertible either.
 
Top 5:
 
1: Fire Ant
2: Bane Revolution II
3: Disaster Box
4: Zombi13
5: Silver Devil

I understand what you mean but this was different..


I didnt wand tool it, I had to set one colour as the Transparent one.. if I used grey bits of the extenders on robots would have been patches of transparency. but hey it serves its purpose..

Thanks, Virtual cookie for you.

That would be because after I set up the text and size, etc of Kill's (first place on the bracket) I just copy and pasted it for everyone elses and edited the names.

So Kill up first is correct and Fotepx gets the bye..

I thought he had 8 razors on a disc. Ah well, my internet's slow at home and the splash wouldn't load. Plus, there's a fair few similar spinners in the tourney, I must have gotten his machine mixed up with someone else.

I hope Cactus Panda will survive the initial first hit from Craaigs bot... then it might have a chance at that wonderfully exposed chassis.  Otherwise the impact is going to royally hurt.  Heh, I put the flags on to use up the rest of the weight for giggles, now I regret it.  XD

Good luck to everyone.  This is going to be epic fun again.

Thanks Joe for all your hard work!

Also, @Joe: Why isn't my very slightly updated version of Fire Ant in the splash? I sent it to you basically right after the first one.
 

Most likely the pics were taken before the updated one and I didnt think that far ahead :P (Pics were taken ages ago)

Dont stress though the updated one is present in my game.. I saved all the bot files in the robot designs folder with the files named the builders names.. if you updated I overwrote the old.

I will double check but im 99% sure I already have it in..

Also I forgot to apologize for the fact Polycarb showed up quite green on the splash for everyone :P


Oh, WHEW.  That explains a lot.


...Just double-check you have Whipscorpion from me and not Thwack3, will you?  :redface:   Doesn't hurt to make sure.


Edit: yay, plenty of flippers and VS's for me to eat.  I hope Naryar wins his fight, though I may still be able to beat NFX if I can hit that motor.

LOL epic fail on my part.. Whipscorpion is definitely in my game.. I can even recheck if you like but yours is easy due to the name change.. I cant believe I didnt pick up it was the old robot when I typed in Thwack3 for the splash :P Guess I was up to late...

Joe - I think that you should re-do who goes where in the loser bracket. As it is right now, there are no possible scenarios that bots on the right of the bracket will fight bots on the left of the bracket until a final. What you should do is alternate which side of the loser bracket that robots are placed into upon losing. For example: switch [loser 2-1] with [loser 2-16], [loser 2-2] with [loser 2-15] and so on. Only do this for loser rounds 2, 4 and 6 though.

This will eliminate the chances to losing to a bot in the first round, and then being knocked out of the tourney by the exact same bot in the next round, it will produce some more variation in matches, and reduce the chances of losing to a "bad draw." I'm fairly certain that Click does this to even a greater extent in BBEANS, and if you really wanted, I'd adapt his brackets just based on the structure of this tourney.

Also, Urjak's bot IS unrealistic by definition of this tourney. Although nothing is in the portion of the chassis that is cut by the disk, in order for the bot to work, the portion being cut by the disc would have to be removed, therefore changing the shape of the chassis from a cube to a rectangular prism, which, BY YOUR OWN DEFINITION, renders it inelligible for any Clash Cubes tourney. But I don't really care because I think he loses to the first good gut-ripper he meets :P

The issue I see with this reasoning is the idea that if a part is intersected by something moving, that part which is intersected must be actually considered removed when dealing with the other rules. This is an assumption being made on your part, the way I see a bot could just as easily be "reset" each time another rule is looked at, thus one "modification" in order to comply with one rule doesn't have to be carried over to the other rules.

First off, I'm not actually serious about your entry's realism. It's still within the spirit of the realistic rule, so it's fine by me.
 
Second, I don't like the method for following rules that you're postulating. Basically, what you're saying is that if a bot follows each individual rule, it can violate the rules as they are written out as a whole. This makes no sense! Isn't the purpose of having rules to make sure that nothing violates them in part or as a whole?

That is how I always interpreted them as, however this discussion made me reconsider this in the context of certain rules (i.e the slot rule and the cube rule).

Just when I thought it was safe to think I could have a relaxing tournament for once..

Joe - I think that you should re-do who goes where in the loser bracket.

boy you love making long posts..

yeah I havent even looked at the losers bracket.. in fact I didnt even make it, downloaded it from a brackets website, converted it to an image and added the glow effects

I just assumed it filled in the right places but I will swap over the numbers when the time comes....

Also, Urjak's bot IS unrealistic by definition of this tourney. Although nothing is in the portion of the chassis that is cut by the disk, in order for the bot to work, the portion being cut by the disc would have to be removed, therefore changing the shape of the chassis from a cube to a rectangular prism, which, BY YOUR OWN DEFINITION, renders it inelligible for any Clash Cubes tourney.

Its a litttle on the too tall side as is.. so it would actually make it more cubic if it was flattened a touch.. and the inside of the disc could be thinner in real life so its enough to push it through Clash Cubes and DSL Realism rules.. Never said it flew through with flying colours.. it only just scrapped through after having a good half hour of looking over it..

The chassis shapes have a bit of leadway either way infact the only time im really strict on cube chassis is if its too tall or to flat for an advantage...

Example 1: Someone sent me a robot that had the chassis too flat in order to be invertible.. thus rejected as its intentionally not a cube to gain an advantage

Example 2: Someone sent me a robot that had the chassis too tall in order to fit more internals.. thus rejected as its intentionally not a cube to gain an advantage

The only reason Urjaks is that high is because he couldn't get the scroll to get that low (its higher then the lowest possible limit).. nothing occupys the space and the robot only gains a disadvantage of having it unprotected at the top of the robot.

But first he said it was high enough for a Half-sheet to attach then that it couldn't go any lower. Half-sheets don't attach to a LPH chassis. Sorry, I'm just soooo confused.

I'll refrain from doing the loser bracket and therefore the grand champ too until I know if Joe is going to switch up the loser brackets or not, but here's how I think the tourney is going to shake down:

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/24836CC3 brackets.png)


Yes, I have LiNcK coming out of the winners bracket. Some bots are aided by great matchups, while others don't have favourable ones at all though, and that all plays a part in the results. Depending on the structure of the loser bracket, it's completely impossible to even guess a champion at this point.

I did realise it was My Curse, it's one of my favourite songs. =D

I think Rubik did a bit better than I thought it would, actually.

Some good battles so far.  Soul Provider looks quite effective and could become a dark horse.  (I still don't get how it outweaponed SBFC so easily.)  And CubeShark did surprisingly well considering how much of a disadvantage it is at in terms of weapon weight and drive power.

Well, here's my fight reviews:

STC vs. R1885: Great realistic fight! I loved it.
GRW vs. Enigma: Snooze fest.
090901 vs TG: Real action packed fight.
VB vs Jonzu: Wow :surprised:, I can't believe DB. That's amazing.
Sypher vs Preytor: Relatively boring match.
027 vs SD: Even though it lossed CS2 is better than I expected.

So far, I'm 6 for 7 in my predictions... Damn Trumpetguy just had to have two more razors than I thought he did.

Some good matches so far, but GRW vs. Enigma was a real snoozer.

Pretty much Urjak.. imagine yourself with mere hours a week to do everything you want to do besides working or studying..

I am sorry to say but this has to take the tail of the list as I have to maintain and complete much more first..

As I said before a lot is jumping and changing so when I undertake these projects I was expecting to get them done within more reasonable time frames.. 

I am trying to arrange some additional time off to really catch up with some things only thing is that hurts me in the financial department.

Thanks everyone for your kind patience..

I can now officially and confidently say.. WE ARE BACK IN BUSINESS!

I think I have re-ignited that spark with RA2 because lately I have been flying through stuff like the old days.. (evidence in Backlash and now here)

So basically I have been working all night and get this all completely set up to push out multiple videos every day.. no joke..

So starting tomorrow.. (hope the world doesnt end aye? LOL)

Good matches. The "lip" made for some unlucky TKOs.

The Lip seems to be the perfect height to catch horizontal flails

Its not only there to stop wedges sliding up the slope so easy but it is an arena hazard too (the AI paths in the arena.py tell the AI the arena ends before the lip)

<3 COOLRUNNER's bot. Win or lose, it's got my vote for most awesum bot in the tourney.

Urjak's blatantly-illegal-in-every-way-so-i'll-use-AI-to-circumvent-the-rules shell on the other hand = do not want. (Nothing against you Urjee, but 1-wheel SnS with Melty Brain is just pushing "realistic" waaaaaaay too far.)

I can take solace in the fact that WTF, Mate? will beat it if they meet though.

I'm perfectly fine with the melty brain, it's the one wheel I don't get. Melty brain works by speeding up and slowing down the drive motors, but if there's only one wheel, surely the bot'll just spin round and round in erratically slowing circles.

I honestly don't know much about melty brain drive, all I know is that there are 1 wheel varieties (like the one pictured above). So not only is it realistic, it is found IRL.

It moves faster when driving "towards" the opponent then slow when driving "away" and effectively pulls itself towards the opponent.
(Bad explanation but yeah...)
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: MikeNCR on May 30, 2011, 11:20:47 AM
One wheel melty's are very doable, and even non melty's with a single wheel can move around fairly well.


You can see an example of relatively linear movement with 1wd in this video- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsjR0OVNg1A# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsjR0OVNg1A#)


What the melty system does is instead of slower, full reversing, it modulates the throttle resulting in specific portions of the rotation being faster and  slower and uses this to translate across the arena.

Post by: NFX on May 30, 2011, 11:22:21 AM
They don't have spinning weapons on them, though, everything's static. If you gave a 1WD Melty Brain robot an enormous spinning bar to use, it would have no control whatsoever. I don't think a 1WD Melty Brain Spinner of any type would be an effective or controllable machine IRL. Let's just wait for Joe to post up some more videos, I can't be bothered arguing at the minute.

Let's just wait for Joe to post up some more videos, I can't be bothered arguing at the minute.


As long as you have a strong enough drive motor and a weak enough weapon motor it could probably work. It might not be all that effective, but neither are popups IRL.

DSL is realistic as it "can it be built" not "would it work if it was built". I'm still annoyed about the chassis height thing.

What part of the DSL realistic rule does the "idea of grinding down the top of the chassis to allow the disk to go by" break? There were no components in there and moving objects are allowed to move through static ones, so long as a hole can be cut. And a rather large hole could indeed be cut in the chassis.

The bit where if it was grinded down, another bit of the bot would not be attachable. And if it still was you are simply adding an unrealistic bit to a chassis for more HP which is unsporting..

Personally, once you need a cool AI to drive your robot, it shouldn't be allowed in tournaments any more. The only reason we have AI tournaments (pretty much) is because online is too damn laggy. You shouldn't be able to take advantage of that and make a robot you can't drive.

Sorry, you can't. When a tournament is in Brackets and Videos, signups are closed. But pop on over into the Multi-Entry Signups forum and you can join those.

I recommend starting a showcase first to get better a bot building though. If you don't, you'll get trashed.

Holy sh** I actually pulled it off...

Now Clickbeetle... *looks at bot* Not good. If he starts spinning directly I just hope I can deflect him and make him pull a Haymaker, but my bot's front isn't really shaped to take on SnS like that.

Am also wondering if I can send a skin for my bot and a BSG that actually shouts "TIGER UPPERCUT" rather than the "tch" sound ?

It was especially done for flippers to be effective, and no Backlash arena was ever tough for flippers.

Your fault for not entering one ! We all said "OMG DAT ARENA LET'S ALL SPAM THE BRACKET WITH FLIPPERS" and now, maybe one tenth of the bracket is flippers.

Probably me being ignorant, but don't Overkill blades have one-sided normals? Why was SnSnS spinning the wrong way. It probably does damage on both sides, I'm just wondering.

Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on June 16, 2011, 06:18:20 AM
ok here is the verdict

*SnS in the video was spinning the blades in the direction overkill uses them (thus the "sharp side")
*SnS that SB sent spun the other way with the jiggered side hitting robots
*The Overkill Text file listed the Normals as True 0 1 0 the True indicating it damages both ways (otherwise it would be False 0 1 0)

upon testing the damage is identical both ways BUT I have noticed the robot is less stable in impacts using the sharp side as the spin direction.. so that warrants a refilm (sorry scorps) since SB intened it to spin the other way (its just the number in the binding line that defines the spin direction, made the AI spin it the other way..)

Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on June 16, 2011, 06:35:29 AM
It has nothing to do with the normals but the fact I uncovered that the AI spun SB's robot the wrong way which it was less stable.

the line in the bindings was

'direction':1,

when it should have been

'direction':-1,

Match refilmed

Which reminds me..

Since you guys all made robots that threw other robots at the walls harder then my test robot I am going to have a go at improving the walls (I have an idea how to do it) so there is actually a second chance if you hit them like it was intended.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: NFX on June 16, 2011, 08:06:39 AM
It could be that they hit the walls first, then you put the wall actually falling on a delay, a bit like the Hell Raisers in the Starcore V3 Arena.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on June 16, 2011, 08:56:22 AM
Im not going to be changing the arena mechanics mid tournament.. they are intended to just be breakable walls

Ill try adding some weight to them and a tiny bit of elasticity so the robots will hit it and stay in bounds and the wall will drop straight down (not everything fly outwards)

Should work if they are heavy enough.. its like throwing a robot at a non fixed piece of polycarb and a non fixed brick wall.. they would bounce off the wall but push the polycarb..

So I get Naryar for my first fight... probably the better of the two bots for me.  Whipscorpion consistently beat AntonYYYm in testing, and Tiger Uppercut is slower, so I'm confident I can win.  However, I also know that Whipscorpion is all too prone to OOTAing itself at random, so I'm not quite as confident that I WILL win.

If the wall now manages to fall entirely it can benefit me more than a small wall arena.

Though what is this stronger wall you are talking about ? Do the walls now need a higher amount of kinetic energy to fall out ?

The walls always dropped completely away.. as you can see in the video the robots stay in play even after being heavily smashed into the walls.. in round 1 that would just fly through the walls and oota in one hit..

My battle is next, unless JoeBlo decides to troll me and skip our battle. Why am I so impatient right now ?

Well done Joey, you've managed to excite me. (To others : do NOT misunderstand this sentence, please)

Most of the time I am either cynical, either bored, but now I am strangely... lively ???

A bit late catching up on CC4 matches, but: great match Naryar, that had me on my toes.  (Also, I always check the first page before reading comments so nothing gets spoiled. ;) )


BUT NOW I GET R0B0 D:  If it was any other popup in the tournament, I'd be confident, but Fire Ant is too wide and flat.  It's just gonna slide under Whipscorpion and take off motors.


Now if I'm seeing the loser's bracket right I'll either get Jack, 123, or TX.  I'm pretty sure I could beat Jack or TX but for 123 I may have to rely on instability.

Likewise, just watched the matches.
 
Anyways, I see a lot of Whipscorpion sliding up the outsides of the wedges, bouncing harmlessly away, and Fire Ant swinging at nothing but air. I think I can win, but if you can last long enough, maybe you can wear down my defenses or score a WBP. We'll see.

^This makes no sense, having the same HP for different weights is VERY unbalanced.^


In the interests of staying on topic, some of these matches are very predictable (even by looking at the video time left) but sometimes I do get surprised by events that occur.

And how exactly is winning 1 match before being eliminated from the tournament considered

doing so well in the losers bracket.

I thought 1-2 is a pretty bad record.. but anyway..

Horror had a lot of drive and power behind it, so it was able to shunt a couple of robots over the walls. Having no real weaponry and no way of righting itself did seem to let it down, though.

Horror's not out yet, so it could still happen. However, it's more likely to get thrown around in its next fight as it faces off against my robot.

Doomkiller will be difficult but not impossible. If I win I'm almost certainly against R0B0 though - all down to wedges. I'd almost be more confident of
beating Urjak.

It is suprisingly potent against some FSS's but obviously none are as challenging as yours...

The plan was to fight wedges better, but they seem to be effectively static when they hit a concussion weapon, like a hammer, so they seem to be a bit more damaging that way.


Actually, if your razors behaved as if static they would suck against hammers. I think it is the horizontal flails that are covering for your vertical ones.

That's Halfsheets you're thinking of. A regular Titanium sheet weight 30kg and has 12,000HP. A Halfsheet is half the weight, but only has a third of the health.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: Somebody on August 15, 2011, 08:27:10 AM
What I've noticed before when using tite sheets is that if the sheet is attached on something like a poly extender off of the skirt hinge, then the poly extender generally takes damage through the sheet and falls off, taking the sheet with it.
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: JoeBlo on August 15, 2011, 08:35:35 AM
Thanks SB for that info..

LiNcK's robot uses a poly extender to hold the sheet so its a good chance that happened..

Its like half sheets on the bottom of the chassis, they dont deflect everything.. perhaps its due to the collision mesh being so thin?

Tip from now on would be when attaching Half sheets like that, attach directly to skirt hinges..

I think it's quite good that your sister's doing well, it's showing that she has potential, and this might offer her incentive to sign up to GTM.

Another thing I think this shows is that simpler designs can still work. Green Pea's run puts me in mind a little bit of Valid Query 2, there were a whole host of better-built bots in the field, but it still managed to keep winning. There's no doubt in my mind that S_M has the better bot in terms of build quality and complexity, but that doesn't necessarily translate into combat, as we've seen.

If I beat R0B0 I'm confident of beating VB or Guitars.

Not so confident of winning should Urjak, Click or NFX come through the LB.

While I'm at it, here are some predos:

Guitars over VB
R0B0 over Me
Click over Bubbles
Pwn over SKBT
Somebody over NFX
LiNcK over CUDA

Those arnt ranks on the first post.. just match records.. remember you do more rounds in the losers bracket so you can have more wins..

After this tournament I will do the same formula Click does (number of wins divided by number of losses plus four) which will give an accurate ranking..

Yeah, that's true. =) I was confused by that sort of thing when I first signed up, how you could win more matches and still lose.
 
Sounds like a better idea to me, rather than going on wins alone. Are you doing it in terms of matches, or in terms of rounds?

match wins..

Otherwise someone could win perfect 3-0 every match and be ranked the same as someone who scrapped through 2-1 on every match..

Wait I'm confused about the bracket.  It says "Loser to 36" for my fight with R0B0.  And the spot numbered 36 in the loser's bracket would put me against Mike.  Are you not following the numbers?

I downloaded the bracket template from the internet (then added the glow and stuff) Robo pointed out at the start that there would be loads of rematches if I followed the format the template had written in.. so instead I came up with my own sequence to put the loosers into the bracket to reduce the number of early rematches..
Title: Re: Clash Cubes IV - Splash, Brackets & Videos
Post by: Clickbeetle on August 28, 2011, 12:59:01 AM
Oh, I just assumed the numbers would alternate correctly to prevent rematches.  Didn't look at the bracket as a whole.

I used some track of Demetori and never got any trouble. No complaining or anything. So I'm just guessing that it is okay. I have two albums that I could send if you want to give it a go. It's up to though.

I'm on the Top Ten by a thread!

The ranks haven't been updated for 2 or 3 rounds, you were since eliminated, so prepare to drop further (aisde from the fact they are records and not balanced ranks yet)

AND I'M STILL PISSED I LOST TO EFFING HARD BOT :rage I could have had a much higher ranking too. Maybe I should have gone with Astro/Razor drive and put MOAR RAZORS on Zombi13... oh well.

I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE IN CC5 *gets sucked into a dark vortex of evil* o_0 wait what?

Geice proves that newbies can do well. I do agree that it's a bit odd, but there's not much we can do about it. She built a good robot - admittedly, had quite a lucky run - and managed to get at least third place with it. Well done to her.

Well, I told her to use razors instead of hammers actually. She made the bot herself after I taught her about attachment points.

Does she know she's got a guaranteed third place? :gawe: That might be incentive to join the boards proper.

Well, she thought she would lose every fight and had being watching the fights every time I say they are posted. I haven't told her about the WB final yet.

That is quite an achievement for someone still new what hasn't even joined GTM. Do hope she will, good builders are always welcome.

We've seen 2 of her bots on the forum. This and Prestonmobile.

No, I was watching the start of the semi whn I glanced over at "related videos" where there was the thumbnail for the final with

He didn't even have time to watch the whole fight - he must have skipped to the end straight away.

No, I skipped the intro to each fight and to the video, I posted the final was up then edited my post once the result came up.
