The name :C

Each entrant will have to clone and "improve" another entrants bot. Who will clone who will be picked at random. You may clone any bot of that user's that has been showcased. This will mean that you wont really know who each person will be building as there should be multiple bots of each weightclass.

1. DSL Standard, no hax mode, no BFE, AAM etc. Trov glitch is allowed, but I'll hate you for it.
2. MW.
3. The only cheatbot2 component allowed is the pillow of doom. No others.
4. No skill restrictions- as long as everyone tries their hardest.
5. No bot restrictions. Go crazy.
6. I can AI, but I would greatly prefer it if you did it yourself. As the only bot I'll bother with AIing to perfection is my own, it will probably benefit you too.
7. Any "YOU AI'D IT RONG" type complaints will have their bots ripped to shreds by a UHW and posted on the front page for all to see, as well as being DQ'd. This does not apply if I did actually AI it not to the persons specification. If it doesn't work as you thought it would, and you complain, tough.
8. 1 havok restart per bot. This counts as a game changing event- e.g a bot being inverted for no apparent reason after it tears a part off of another bot.
9. 2 minute matches, so be sure to make as deadly bots as possible.
10. Double Elimination brackets.
11. Arena- I'm thinking RA2T2, or a slightly modded DSL tourney arena with higher walls. Hazards off.
12. 16 spaces, with a wildcard if there is enough interest. I myself will be entering, but I can relegate myself to the wildcard if necessary.
13. You get 3 goes at improving the bot. I shall check to see whether or not it has been improved. Basic bot type must stay the same, but you can hybrid it up if you so desire.

Only bots PM'd to me directly will be considered.
Signups will close at some point in the future.
Updates- 1 can be used between sending and when signups close. However, if the update is drastically different (ie new bot type) from the original, you will be moved down the queue.

1.Ty4er
2.Conraaaa
3.Jurricaneandrew
4.Awesomesauce
5.0909090909090990909091091019109019109101910910190191091019019109101901910
6.Criaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag
7.Squirrel_Monkey
8.R1885
9.Sylandro
10.Playzooki
11.Naryar
12.Massimov
13.
14.
15.
16.Me.

Wildcard may magically appear.

People like to build what they like to build. And I like to build both, so I'll whip something up for this.

lol I love the fact that debates can spark ideas like this around here.

So it's like BTTB but with a twist? I like.

martymidget · « **Reply #6 on:** March 20, 2013, 06:45:17 AM »

I'll be entering, but nobody will be allowed to send after the random picking of who will be building whose bot, and after I've shown my bot.

Just because I was someone to trawl through all 80 pages of my showcase because I'm an arse.

Greenk ticking is a go go.

Sonny should enter.....

Naryar · « **Reply #8 on:** March 20, 2013, 07:25:05 AM »

Just add a quality check at the end, to make sure there has been an improvement.

Otherwise, sounds good. I will participate.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #9 on:** March 20, 2013, 08:22:23 AM »

I may or may not enter just as long as someone has to recreate either Balrog or that crazy-ass UHW I showcased years ago

ty4er · « **Reply #10 on:** March 20, 2013, 10:27:47 AM »

please have a more 'active' camera view this time :P

ianh05 · « **Reply #11 on:** April 25, 2013, 08:44:54 AM »

Wonder if Marty even knows this was moved to sign-ups

.

martymidget · « **Reply #12 on:** April 25, 2013, 09:11:18 AM »

Well I do now.

Tbh I green ticked it then didn't bother with anything else.

Woops, nevermind, forgot my rules for a second.

Signups are open, just need 15 people to PM me to say they'll enter lol.

If I get more, I'll open a wildcard and shove myself in there.

You must have missed the PM that I sent you. I also informed the whole forum with a post in the voting thread.

martymidget · « **Reply #15 on:** April 26, 2013, 02:09:43 AM »

Didn't see it, was in hospital :c

And I saw the PM literally before I posted so it kinda counts :P
