REVISION!
I am quite aware of the number of issues that revolved around building non damaging bots in DSL and to be honest, they did end up to become a bit of a bore. Therefore, this season, I have decided to change the rules completely (and will update the website respectively). This season, ELBITE will still require it's ELBITERS to make three bots to compete, but instead, each person will organize those bots into one team. This speeds up the organization process on my part and on your part as well. Also this time around, all three of the tournaments will be DEATHMATCHES, but in each tournament, you will get to choose which bot you would like to compete for your team. Remember, You will now be creating a team for three of your DSL-BUILT DAMAGING BOTS which will each be put into a separate tournament. Sounds good? Good.
THE RULES AT A GLANCE (Not following these rules will risk you your entry into the Super Tournament) These rules apply to ALL 3 TournamentsWeightclass this season: MW
Gametype: DSL
Tournaments: 3 Deathmatch Tournaments + 1 Final Match
Building Rules/Mission: Build 3 Damaging bots, Create a team for them (TEAM NAME IS A MUST), compete and win!
More about driving (In addition to the building rules stated here): Bot's that are unable to drive straight; see driving test in BBEANS, are not allowed. Bot's MUST ATLEAST be mobile in turning Left/Right and driving Forward/Backwards. Bots that sway a little so as it doesn't affect their driving path is OK, no bot has a perfect driving system, but bots that "circle" for example are NOT OK.
Number of revisions to bots: 1 for each bot made respectively. BOTS MUST BE ORIGINAL TO EACH OTHER. Bot's that look EXACTLY like each other will be confusing for Robot Arena to recognize, and me too. Give your bots different names as well so I can differentiate between them.
Arenas used: 3 Different OOTA style Arenas TBA. I REALLY CAN USE HELP WITH THIS ONE. Still can't build custom arenas but I am able to skin and render.
Prizes:
-1st Place Prize: Holy Jagged Blade (Youtube link) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkPboXFb6Ck#) + Fire Badge (https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=ELBITE_Super_Tournament) + Gold Ticket
-2nd Place Prize: TBA
-3rd Place Prize: TBAGold Tickets: Gold Tickets are given to the winner of each tournament, therefore, a single team could win more than one ticket. These tickets could be used in your sig, and will grant you VIP access to ESIS (TBA what that is about in the future!). I will add more rules when I see fit.
Number of Entrants Allowed: The ELBITE Super Tournament is an Elite Competition. Due to the lack of a Loser's bracket and the unique quality of having 3 Tournaments in event, we will only be accepting 32 entrants. This means that 32 entrants x 3 Tournaments = 96 Possible match ups, not counting the matches when your team bots go against each other which will not be allowed. If you do become matched up with one of your own bots, there are a number of things that one could consider.
-Multibots: Multibots are indeed allowed. Just keep in mind that They would still count as one bot.
-Choice Tags: If by the rare occurrence that more than one your bot ends up in the finals. Both of your bots will get a Choice Tag Before your match even continues. A Choice Tag is a little red tag that will be placed on your bots entry pictures indicating that you must choose one of them in order to continue. The empty space left by the bot that was not chosen will become a number of things: -It will turn into a ByeBot of which the other competitor will go up against. For more on ELBITE's ByeBots, check out my website and related links.
-The empty space will turn into the In Queue competitor in the waiting list. This is ONLY if that competitor has won an ELBITE Badge before (Badges must be PM'd to me as proof).
-Move up the previous contender.
And now, here are the SEASON 1 ELBITERS! Round of applause for winning a tough spot to compete in ELBITE!
