nice work on the splash.. so that's how you ended up showing my interchangeable weapons ?
Gay crawlers, submitted by the gayest builders, big surprise.
40757 is my favorite.
I have alot of strong HSes on my side of the bracket. Opposite of what i wanted.
Natef, same here.
Im not too confident in versus Popup, because all popups during testing beat Minesweeper like it wasnt even there! Tough, those were SC v4 bots so this might actually end up different.
Forgetting the Cheap ass popups?
Also, You build a crawler?
I cant wait to see the first one wheeled HS fight.
Since when were popups cheap...?
When popups first came onto the RA2 scene, there was a similar backlash against them for much of the same reasons used against Bumble Bee. It was seen as cheap and unfair to get under the other bot and hit their unprotected bottoms. And now look, popups are basically a staple design of RA2, and they're also beatable.
Your just mad cause you cant build, well, worth sh*t.
Jack Daniels, eh? I think I might actually have a chance, but if the popup AI decides to be a bitch, then...
JD: Kinda feels like his ARBBC (did I type it right?) bot. I like it, but 6 irons can't do much.
Yeah, you do. Guybrush does not fare well against popups usually. But it will not be your AI that you should worry about, it will be your speed I think. What drive motors do you have on that rig? If you got something zippy, then my bot is surely toast.
You forgot to include me in the splash. D:
I'm dead.
but I didn't ask a particular way for DK to splash them ? I dont think there is anything wrong with building something different... btw Reier its a popup first round
Thats pretty lame IMO, unless it has to go in order of the row his bots are in, which isn't as lame. Also it doesn't have the same internal parts.
SC: Most of us built our bots specifically to beat this. Not me, however. Darn. D:
Veterans Hate Innovation.

whipper snappers
Eee,Starcore!?
Oh S***.
Is there going to be a tourney where i get a GOOD draw!?
If you can ignore my castor armour...
Eee,Starcore!?
Oh S***.
Is there going to be a tourney where i get a GOOD draw!?
Also way too much horizontal spinners for my liking, and 2 very ghey crawlers.
Funky version of double dee double die. Dunno what the song is called though. Good match. Can't believe Joe didn't win the first battle.
I dont think so.
My flippers will take care of fury.
HOPEFULLY THAT IS.
Fury has 12 Irons spinnng like heck, a snoughplough and is invertible.
Unless you have HPZ drive you are pretty screwed.
Ironic, A person who entered a bot that used to be considered cheap around the time of click's enterence into RA2 is complaining about other bots being cheap... Go figure.
Your point has been made, popups were at some point in the past considered cheap. But that's not going to change the fact your entry is as cheap as they come.
As for the battery thing. It's basically exploiting a specilized glitch, like a Rupting flipper.
First fight i am very confident against 407507
No S32 sucks. I have yet to see him enter anything competitive fairly, let alone build something along those lines.
Maybe we can have them ejected so that the rest of us can have a peaceful tourney.:idea:

P.S: Sage, face it, you are his Lackey. You can't really deny it.
Destiny...good?
Somebody...can you build anything good that is not a SnS?...no.
doomkiller is not gunna be posting stuff till friday cause of some stuff he has to do so yea lol.how i know is cause i go to school with him and he said to put this thread up for him.
I smell summer holiday end-ness.
Ounce is right, I was banned till saturday ( for reasons im not gona say )
No, It's winter here
Seism 16 ??? is there something I am missing here or is it a coincidence ? surprising battle anyway
Just wanna ask, How did seims 13 ( whatever that bot was called that was in bbeans ) have ajustable wedges?
Edit out the boring bits then...
Craaig, your bot would be alot better if you didn't have the wedges flip up every time you got under anything, ATM your bot spends half the time off ballance, your lucky your oppnents bot was as slow as a snail at the north pole, as every other bot (even the ones with RAD drive) would just take the time to smash your bot into 1234567890 peices.
Eh, I would say thanks for the advice, but it wasn't advice, seemed more like criticism to me XD

we need more videos
What happened to CW3000 After the second havok?
And RR's entry should not even be legal because it has NO controllable movement.
Still arguing, I see?
(http://pics.livejournal.com/twoflower/pic/00023gph)
I'll take that and use it in flame wars.
*rawr*
I'll take that and use it in flame wars.

Look at the scores and the places of the text.
That pic is legit.
Still arguing, I see?
(http://pics.livejournal.com/twoflower/pic/00023gph)
*sigh*, all of you are hopeless.
That's a little harsh... :| Who exactly are you disappointed at?
You do know what forums are REALLY for, right?
For the issue/test of controlled movement I would suggest do an AI battle of the bot in question and a bot with no motive ability/power (nobrain.py is a good AI for this) in your chosen arena.
If the bot you are testing is able to collide/hit the nobrain bot before it is counted out as immobized then you have at least limited controlled movement.
Starcore
hey DK, I might have to catch up wit you tomorrow on msn and discuss the speed of this tournament ? mainly whether you want any help getting some videos up faster ?
you guys are overusing this smiley.
Very true. Remember, the big one is only to be used in cases of epic win, and the small one with regular win. Low to moderate win such as this situation only requires a simple " :D "
Also, SSG needs to build more MW's. This is like the 23543453rd straight time you've used Minesweeperin a stock MW tourney, and you've lost every. single. time. >.>
Isn't Dolphin one of ITFC's bots?
BTW,Why was there a pic of a SC4 fury CROSSED OUT?
Starcore: Nice, too bad we've had plenty of time to beat it.
SC: Most of us built our bots specifically to beat this.
I think Starcore must of gave Doom two versions - kinda like Iron Outlaw, but not a full blown bot-type change.
New vid coming soon guys
(this used to be white)Also, the surprise is up(this used to be white)
K guys?
I think that i put the wrong bot in.Doom,Can you let me make a new version of micro to win and send it to you for a rematch?And if The new bot won,I advance?
Hopefully you like that I am continuing to update and improve...
Can we get rid of this guy already
Then it's a good thing we have this:
Well that was called for.
Had look at my opponent,And that is tough. I cant explain well because i promised not to say the bot or members name.
And yes, I did tell LRA2 who he is vs
???
I do not understand
Not surprised that I lost, I can't build stock for sh** anyway.
R1885 hunh ? hmm I might have to think about this weapon choice
The SD Somebody match should be re recorded because SD's bot's range function was not set and COMPLETELY affected the effectiveness of the bot at the beginning of matches for sure.
I noticed you added a range of 500 in my IO HS bindings too DK ? at least I dont think I added it.. It should be Identical to the FS and VS ones ? I dont think it makes a whole lot of difference just curious if you put it there ?
yeah, I normally just use 99 if I do use it thats why 500 seemed strange to see in my bindings ?
So... if Doom's doing a random draw... how do you know?
He was bored,So he asked for a match,
Uh, JoeBlo, I think you made the same mistake that DK made on match 9 with the above video. Please fix..
Redline VS Craaig's music was awesome. I would say Rammstein but IDK really.
Then it's a good thing we have this:
(http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s36/westcoastdrags/howtouse.png)
Yeah my bot tends to explode if spinners like to pretend VS.
Does 1 razor make much of a difference? Talking about Robo vs Starcore... I want Robo to win since he doesn't have castor armour for my next fight.
Roboshark vs Starcore (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svn8okWTQd0) ****
Close matches, with more Maces......
Roboshark wins 2-0 with 1 KO and 1 WBP
Roboshark vs Jack Daniels (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHOdVYgSd3c) ***
Guybrush survived the last pop-up, will it survive this one?
JD wins 2-0 with 2 KO's
Its a Pokemon game. I believe it is Sapphire/Ruby/Emerald game.
On the 3rd of october, I shall be on Australian Army Cadet Anual camp till the 10th of October, so unless joeblo uploads some vids, i will not be.
Ok guys?
At least I know mine fared better (no offense H@zm47).
I just wanted to enter something other than a spinner in this tourney.
Get your own.
(http://img5.imagebanana.com/img/1asyi2l4/cookie.png)
:P
Oh well, maybe I'll get better luck in RAW 2... oh wait, I WON'T, because even though my entry's decent, it will NOT do well in the arena we're fighting in.
[8(]
Who the heck told you what arena I'm using? Cause I didnt.
Hey guys, just realized something. It's not fair for me to know the arena and you guys not.
So for a compromise, I'll tell you the things that will influence your bot building.
First, the arena will have low walls, near the same height as the BBEANS arena V2.
There will be no hazard in the middle.
The starting points are like the Clawtop arena: you have to turn around.
I think that about covers it.
What is this then?
Hey, SSG's bot pinned me! I was perfectly able to get out untill he blocked my way!
I demand a grudge match for that...
Just after its counted out it havocs all over the place :D
thats Stock Servo Boosting :P
Im about to start filming round 2 of the losers bracket and begin posting them up, just a heads up to Natef I choose the VS for a nice change :-D
losers bracket round 2 battle 1 is up :-D
Am I reading the loser's bracket right? I'm up against Starcore next? How did he even end up in the loser's bracket?
Roboshark HS destroyed Starcore after some close matches
Anybody else notice that the slideshow stats on the bots are for eXo and Seism 16?
That was very close! Round 2 could of went either way, and Round 3 had me changing my mind on the winner every time.
O and Joeblo, are u still doing the loser's bracket? or do i have to take over?
Great fights!
Since I'm out, I can't wait for WRL2
GAH!!! D: D: D:
me getting destroyed by a noob. What fun!:mad:
Nary: YAY HS PROTEKSHUN. Mwahahahahaha. >:)
Exuse me, but my match is not even 1 full round? The vid is only 1:29 and the first round does not even finish.
I found it kinda sad that most matches don't have the third round. It's just lazy and stupid all the way.
That's just time efficiency. Unlike BBEANS where there is KO/TKO tracking, Doomed Bots has no reason for a 3rd round if a bot has already won the 1st and 2nd. Why play a 3rd round if there's no possible benefit?
u having probs with youtube same as the rest of the world?
Does the champion needs to fight the loser's bracket finalist as the grand finale ?
and then we shall destroy youtube for being such a pain mwhahaha:evil:
Didn't Nary beat Doomaster?
Just sayin, coz Doom's still in the bracket.
*freakishlyawesomeHSlikeallofhisHSesare*
Starcore
Robosh4rk did great with Shrzak and I have learned my lesson in the fine tuning of Fury.
I had pointed the secondary maces straight down to give a better sweep distance for hitting bots that try to get below.
Unfortunately that left Fury's weapon extenders vulnerable to matching styles of HS bots.
Presenting the latest update to the Fury line of bots:
With great effort the body has been shrunk to 27.9kg (still with DSA).
I did trim off the 2nd Snowplow and the Caster Armor.
The weight savings allowed me to increase from 12 to 15 Mace heads all in horizontal alignment to protect their weapon extenders.

Anyone up for a rematch? ;)

An II vs. SD Grand Final. Can't wait.

Well I checked the CSS script and quotes always uses color #d7daec, so this is one way of hiding your text without all that guess work.
the winners are all known anyway
hey Nar how about you let off him a bit ;)
Was gona upload it, but then mum kicked me off the comp, and did all her facebook stuff.
Edit: #$%^! the vid is almost 100mbs.... It will take ages to upload :(
