Post by: Naryar on February 09, 2010, 07:19:45 AM: I'll try building something else than a fail ant :P
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Thyrus on February 09, 2010, 07:28:43 AM: I already made one for that but I`m unsure if I`ll use it.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Naryar on February 09, 2010, 07:32:27 AM: Hey Jonzu, can you also add a rule on the bots must be able to show controlled movement ?
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 09, 2010, 08:19:16 AM: Why?
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: 090901 on February 09, 2010, 09:57:54 AM: What wheel do I get, Green strom wheel or Green micro wheel?
Also, I agree with Naryar because without that rule, this tournament will be spam with 1 wheeled SnS.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Reier on February 09, 2010, 10:15:32 AM: I'll send one in as soon as I get my dang computer fixed! >:B

But 1WD SnS CAN have controlled movement... i was thinking of crawlers right here.

And this better not be spammed with 1WD's since i am most likely entering one :P

This better be something else than a weaponless ~~failure~~ pusher.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 09, 2010, 12:33:47 PM: Excellent. Now all I need are my prizes.

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Stagfish on February 09, 2010, 12:59:16 PM: i made my AW its not a replica
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Sparkey98 on February 09, 2010, 01:01:36 PM: I made mine and I actually built to the limit.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jack Daniels on February 09, 2010, 02:28:40 PM: Hey Jonzu... just so there is no confusion, you should post the weight limit on the front page for reference.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 09, 2010, 02:33:04 PM: Ok. But remember guys, this is only the Discussion. :P
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Badnik96 on February 09, 2010, 04:12:06 PM: Will make something next week. :( I sprained my hand today so I can't build RA2 :(

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Urjak on February 09, 2010, 06:56:19 PM: I will DEFINITELY be entering this one.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jack Daniels on February 10, 2010, 07:36:03 PM: Well, the discussion of this tournament prompted me to practice making an AW in DSL.

Holy friggin' havok-fest Batman! It seems like if you try to make an AW uber powerful in any way possible, it will just havok all over the place.

I am actually quite pleased by this though. It makes for an insane challenge.

I think the only non-havoking AWs are spinners & rammers...
I tried building a popup & all it did was throw itself out of the arena xP
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Sparkey98 on February 10, 2010, 07:39:27 PM: I built a pretty good Ant flipper.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Reier on February 10, 2010, 08:20:06 PM: I got an ant flamethrower... >:D

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 11, 2010, 02:08:38 PM: I'm still waiting for my prizes. :/
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 11, 2010, 02:15:25 PM: Umm... Red, I screwed the wheels and I dont have them anymore... So I changed the green wheels to normal Storm wheel...
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 11, 2010, 02:18:42 PM: Oh.. whoops. I didn't know. I guess 1 still counts as 2 prizes?

Then again, the Storm wheel is pretty beneficial...
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 11, 2010, 02:37:57 PM: And you can take green battery or green ant battery too...
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 11, 2010, 02:46:39 PM: Nah, leave it as the Storm Wheel. They're good.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 11, 2010, 03:14:26 PM: Only Storm wheel!? Right...
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 11, 2010, 04:11:10 PM: Don't worry. I think I have a design that'll more then make up for it.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: G.K. on February 12, 2010, 01:21:38 PM: Hey, Jonzu, did you decide about the mobility issue? Are 1-wheeled bots allowed?
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 12, 2010, 01:32:40 PM: Yes
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2

Post by: G.K. on February 15, 2010, 07:00:05 AM: Small arena, cos I don't want to risk getting oota'd.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: trumpetguy on February 15, 2010, 02:26:51 PM: Where did you download it?
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 15, 2010, 02:28:21 PM: I don't remember... Maybe from RFSHQ...

Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: somestrangeguy on February 17, 2010, 07:48:30 AM: You know, I didnt even know if my tournament was approved or not, I was never contacted about that. I just set singups open after notcing how much attention it got, I think you can do the same. Afterall you already successfully hosted a tournament, it shouldnt be a problem.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Badnik96 on February 17, 2010, 08:38:55 AM: I was never contacted for Replica Wars and the tourney should be done by Friday.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: JoeBlo on February 17, 2010, 09:14:32 AM: ACAMS gave up contacting people after... well so many failing

now we just approve sign ups.. just through it in there if you think you are ready, dont have to ask us as you will get our answer if we deny the topic for appearing.

generally if all rules, info have been covered and the tournament is a squeal you generally can move onto sign ups after a couple of days discussion (just so everyone is clear about the rules, etc)
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 17, 2010, 10:55:15 AM: I made the signup thread. It's waiting the moderators accepting...
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 17, 2010, 11:53:57 AM: What Joe is saying is that the signup forum is now unused (or atleast unupdated) and you have to make your signups HERE.
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: Jonzu95 on February 17, 2010, 11:59:34 AM: Oh... WELL LETS START THE SIGNUPS!
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2
Post by: RedSawn on February 17, 2010, 12:48:44 PM: Where? New discussion thread or here?
Title: Re: CombatAnts 2 signups are open!
