Title: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: FOTEPX on June 01, 2010, 06:18:32 PM
Yes, i'm planning another competition. But because of the fact that I couldn't really AI nor find all the bots, i'm gonna STRICTLY keep this at only 12 people in. Hopefully will find someone else to AI. not planning to start this till next week.

*picture of ripoff*

NO. I mean a competition that USES under 100kg as a RULE. not just a BOT. Also, Nasty Pickle glitch ain't allowed.

Look im just messin with you man

Good. What is your HONEST opinion of the idea?

You bailed a tournament, had one locked in the discussion part, what makes you think people want to sign up for this?
Fleaweight = FAIL
Nobody would want to make them, because most Antweights fail enough.

It's hard enough making a stock antweight. But a bot under 100kg?!

... What the heck is this in anyway? Stock? DSL? Corndogs?
A full list of rules would be nice too...
Arena?

Yes, it's in corndogs.

NO IT'S Dsl.

Besides, i'm still working on it. Probly DSL Tournament Arena for arena and Realistic Rules applyingments.

Finaly I have been waiting for an edible tournament.

The reason that you haven't seen a fleaweight tournament is because fleaweights are very hard to build and have weapons or any damaging capibility or any drive speed for that matter.

Yes, but it is possible.

BTW, FOTEPX, learn to AI, it's very simple

I know how to, it's just I do know how to do it with any of the custom ones, like drum and sns.

UPDATE: Satan's post here.

I didn't mess up the first time I used FBS_1. I didn't even need to fix to binding. I just follow what words you need in them from other bindings.

I doubt ACAMS will allow this just because of the simple fact you can't AI or AI properly. If it does go through then good luck :smile: .

few points to add

Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion

you better learn how to AI properly before starting this

He can, dude. As long as he can AI using Omni, it's fine.

Fleaweight = FAIL

And technically you cannot start a tourney if you don't know to AI.
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion

No you cant start one without, bar the fact that he CAN.

Idea 2 easily better, but i'd recommend using large ants, if you know how to bounce the chassis. My idea:

You need to learn when to just step back and shut up. You tried to start a tourney the second you got here. It failed. Then you got farther with your next one you tried to start, and it failed as well (which pissed me off because I spent a while on my bot, thanks Badnik for taking it up). And now, forgetting the rules that ACAMS have laid down that strictly say NO to a tourney this soon after a fail, you are trying to start another one.

Just wait a while, sit back, learn the ways, and try again when you are really ready to handle a tourney. If you just plain lost interest in TTT, then what says that you are going to keep interest in a tourney this time?

If this for whatever reason does get to signups, you are not going to see an entry from me.

Tournament Bailing Will NO Longer Be Accepted

It is a waste of many peoples time, the contestants, moderators and it has to stop... to many people just bailing with the thought.. someone else can pick this up

any further Tournament Bailing will result in a temp ban from starting further competitions.

Discussion - Tournament Bailing - 0 days
Sign Ups - Tournament Bailing - 30 days
Videos - Tournament Bailing - 50 days
Videos - Jumbled Mess - 30 days

any threads attempted to be started in this offending time frame will get deleted.

seems a little harsh but I think necessary (of coarse if ACAMSY, you dont like this I can do away with it)

Whoops it was JoeBlo, but still...
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: FOTEPX on June 02, 2010, 05:57:31 PM
Excuse me, i'm DISCUSSING this. This is still VERY VERY early in devopment.
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: Somebody on June 02, 2010, 06:26:04 PM
But why discuss if it shouldn't even happen?
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: FOTEPX on June 02, 2010, 08:05:44 PM

It will happen, just not suddenly. This competition (and me) want to be laid back.
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: JoeBlo on June 02, 2010, 08:13:04 PM
thanks SB I forgot about those rules..

June 14 is when you are allowed to carry this through sign ups no sooner.. plus you must wait for some to finish

in theory this should have been locked as per my rules... but I dont have my lockhammer right now
Title: Re: FleaWeight Faceoff Discussion
Post by: Somebody on June 02, 2010, 09:04:48 PM
Is laid back what you call what you did with TTT?

I am not saying that you should not be a tourney host, just not now. And no offense, but this idea will be marginally entertaining at best. Its impossible to build a good Fleaweight bot in RA2.

I wouldnt say bad idea.. just an unworkable one within this game

Actually, if this idea is such a hard one to work with, i might just call this off.
