Flipper Frenzy
« on: December 13, 2010, 04:33:01 AM »
Just a nice idea I had.

RULES:
1: Only cheatbot component allowed is a Judge Burst Motor and Smart Zones.
2: DSL 2.1 Heavyweight
3: Only flippers allowed. No other weapons at all.
4: Clusterbots are allowed, but both bots weights combined must be Heavyweight. Also, only 2.
5: An entirely original creation. A remake of a succesful robot is fine, but I don't want Second Sentinel appearing or any other flipper bot.
6: DSL Tourney Arena with Hazards off.
7: Realism rule applies.
8: You can skin your bot, but don't leave me to do it, I am hopeless at skinning but I will AI. If you can though, I will be very grateful.
9: Aiming for about 32 entries. Double Elimination
10: You can change your entry as much as you please until sign ups close. After then, you CANNOT change.
11: I might need some help recording battles. Can someone help me?
12: AAM or Bot file editing is not allowed.
13: Wheels or tracks ONLY.
14: Glitches may be exploited apart from random Havok explosions.
15: Please attach your own smart zones. Custom smart zones are not allowed.
16: Rumble fights are to fought with the 4 highest finishing non finalists.
17: BBEANS Restart rules apply.
18: In case of time running out (which is 2 minutes) A jury will decide who wins. PM me if you wish to a be a jury. Matches are best 2 out of 3.
19: No popups, that's not staying in the spirit of things.

I will add rules later if you wish.

Isn't that what points are for?

I can AI, and upload but I need a good recorder. I have used Gamecam before and it is VERY slow.
Also, the reason I have a jury is because flippers are non damaging weapons.

Depends. Do you allow weapons on flippers or not ?

I also firmly suggest that you remove judge bursts out of the equation.

I've decided to allow skinning. But please, do it yourself, I tried skinning a few bots and it went awfully wrong.
Also, no popups, that's not staying in the spirit of things.
