Damn it, I probably should've sent in that Popup countering VS instead of that slow poker.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That feeling when you realize Sage is the only person in the splash who joined to GTM before me.

so if SnS's are banned does that mean badniks bot then just drives around like a normal bot?

Yes, I AIed it with Omni.  It'll just act like a bad HS.
Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby SBV
Post by: RedAce on December 06, 2015, 12:20:31 PM
Alright, let's actually take a look at these bots and predict:

Mace Swinger: Odd chassis, but with the amount of weapons, it might hit or miss.

Robo Disco: Eh, it's more like a Robo-Tango since it's slow and is meant to take on HS.  Which it will fight after my first match no matter what I do.

Planet Bob: Generic LW Popup, but it might fare well depending on the amount of weapons and if it has good control of itself.

Slight Prick: Dual HPZ HS with no frontal protection.  Might spell disaster.

Memories: I don't get the symbolism if there is any, but it might fend off those nasty HSes.

Waifu-Bot: Peach?  Interesting choice.  But the bot itself is eh.

Turn Down For What: Not a single VS here, that might help this bot go far.

butt: I like the idea behind this, but one good hit on those motors and it's dead.

Dark Matter: Considering how this bot did in Trios of Terror, it might have a good shot and actually show off whatit

it sucks: Well if you say so, I guess I'll take your word for it.  :P  Nah, just kidding.  It might take do well against some of the HSes.

SnowBallz: Child's Play IV masochist edition.  I'm serious, or at least for me if I had to do that crazy stack.  On the bright side, it might do really well.

Messsynesss: Looks a bit like a havok bomb, that's not a good sign.

Parlay: A bot that's built for HS, which I see a lot of here, so this could go well for this one.

DEATHGASM: It looks tough, but that's all I can think of when I see this.

Astraphobia 2: Without SnS tactics, this might be kinda garbage and not go far.

Overall, lots of generic designs.  I mean almost half the entrants are HSes.  Which is good for efficiency, but bad for variety.  Ah well, good luck guys.

oh

i figured since sns were banned (and i didnt notice like a moron) you'd just drop the bot entirely

if it hasnt already been eliminated just pull it from the tournament i didnt really care about this that much

I thought I sent you a message about that.  Anyway, pulling the bot would mess up the schedule I made, so I'd really rather just leave it in the tournament, if you don't mind.

Post by: Thrackerzod on December 15, 2015, 04:24:22 PM

It has two smartzones.  The one further back didn't get messed up.
Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby SBV
Post by: Thrackerzod on December 16, 2015, 08:36:06 AM
Speaking of pokers, what .py did I use for my bot again?

Code: [Select]
    list.append(("Robo-Disco","Popup",{'NoChassisTime':5,'nose':0,'topspeed':150,'throttle':150,'turnspeed':2.75,'turn':50,'radius':1,'range':100,'weapons':(28,29,30,)}))

Round 2 Match 1 is up!

As far as the thing with Sage's bot (or as I'm going to call it from now on, "buttgate") goes, my current plan is to re-record the two matches that butt was in tomorrow, and put them up before Round 2 Match 4.  Hopefully that should fix everything and get this back on track.  Any dissenting opinions, speak now or forever hold your pizza.
Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby SBV

Lol I knew the smartzones were off for some reason. Not that it will make much difference but maybe might win one! butt definitely needs a human driver

Happy Decemberween, Merry Christmas, and all that.  Hope you enjoyed this tournament!

I would do bonus matches, except I'm not sure how close I am to my tournament deadline.  Or if bonus matches count toward the tournament deadline.  RedAce asked for something earlier, though, so I'll definitely do that.  If you have any match requests, I'll see what I can do.

Would anyone be interested in awards?  And do awards count towards the tournament deadline?

Hey thanks again for this.  I know you probably won't get everything I asked for, but it should be interesting to see.

Sure, and I think they shouldn't depending on how long you have them up for.
