Welcome to the discussion thread for Gametechmods's first UHW Tournament! Clash of the Titans!

Not sure how many people are going to enter, so I've added a poll. I am looking for either 16 or 32 entrants.

1.The weight limit is 5000 kgs (Ultraheavyweight)
2.This tournament is for DSL 2.1 ONLY
3.There is a realistic rule
4.Multibots are allowed
5.Fights will be 1 on 1, best of 3, 2 minute Deathmatches.
6.There will be a loser's bracket
7.NO BFE, AAM, Zero-G, Narmor, or Exostacking
8.No flamethrowers, and no more than 4 flails of any kind per robot (per robot means total, so a multibot can only have 4 total).
9.A bot will get one restart per match for havok. If they havok again, they forfeit the battle. Just like BBEANS.
10.The fights will be in the DSL Blade arena, with the hazards on.

Thanks to Trovaner who skinned the arena

Prizes: This arena skin will be awarded as a prize to whoever wins Clash of the Titans. They can choose to distribute it to all competitors, to have me release it, or to keep it for themselves.

Note: JoeBlo, freeziez, and GroudonRobotWars have automatic entry into this if they choose to use it, for entering The Winds of Change.

Call it "Lag Fest"

Nope. I got EFIE 2 vs. King SnS on my Youtube channel and had no lag.

"Not quite OVER 9000kg?"
"Lead Festival"
"Who needs antiballast?"

What would be cool is remaking DSL AI bots as UHWs

You could call it The Battle of the Gargantuans!

oh UHW.. guess I wont be entering your next tourney

I will think of names though

Awww come on Joe! You can build a UHW! Just make it really generic, no matter how much it pains you to do so.

freeziez · « **Reply #7 on:** August 17, 2010, 10:51:35 AM »

Did you like my name?

NEVERZ!! :P Predator is the most generic I will ever go

I will maybe have a go but I suck at building competitive UHW's especially original ones

U.H.W - ultra huge war

clash of the titans (I know it was a movie name or something like that)

How much would you hate me if I entered a flail shell spinner multibot? :P

Somebody · « **Reply #10 on:** August 17, 2010, 10:53:19 AM »

@freeziez: I will not show preference towards names until the final name is chosen.

But I do kinda like it though.

Are you thinking of a Crash Bandicoot Game? Lols!

Eh, I might join, but I still need to ge tthe Hang of building robots. I've only made 1 So far, and it's not exactly Impressive, even though It might be Ultraheavyweight, Cant remember Lols.

Well then start a showcase this isn't starting just yet! And besides, every tourney needs a newbie bot.

And also, I think that Clash of the Titans is a good name. Unless a better one comes along, I'm going with that.

I highly doubt it's UHW unless you used a UHW antiballast and managed to build up to 5000kg XD

But this could be interesting. I may work on something interesting...

Somebody · « **Reply #14 on:** August 17, 2010, 01:08:41 PM »

Sounds interesting.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 17, 2010, 01:10:07 PM »

I would enter but my computer can hardly handle a SHW because it's my family's computer. I'll try anyway. :)

I swear freeziez I'm going to hurt you.

NFX · « **Reply #17 on:** August 17, 2010, 02:42:10 PM »

UHW. Can you say LAGFEST?

Well, I can, my comp probably couldn't handle that much components at once.

Nevertheless, I may try giving this a bash.
