Absolutely typical...when I finally get the MM awards off the ground, BBEANS finishes and shoves my thread aside.

last I checked the topic of this thread wasn't boasting about your robots or complaining about your threads activity

please stick to the topic..

Well if the system is broken that isn't really Badnik's fault for trying.

In other news I found a laptop, so I could theoretically start my signups tonight. Wouldn't be able to showcase the new EFIE tonight, but I wouldn't be able to see the other bots either. If we get it working.

well I dont know about your but Craaig was able to simply inform me via pm of the problem then sit and wait patiently

also he broke multiple sign up rules including the one I posted last night.

the system is not broken, ACAMS just need to re-alllow thread making in the sign ups section, us staff probably forgot about it due to our button still being there.

I remember him saying that he had showcased his bot somewhere. I don't remember off the top of my head the thread saying that it must be posted in the thread. And he put himself as the first entry in the tourney.

The only rule I can think of that he broke was the rule that it must be approved. Which I agree that he broke it, but what about all of the tourneys like Raging DSL MWs, Robot Smash, and the numerous 128-bot tourneys.

I don't fault Craaig for finding a solution in PMing you. I also don't fault Badnik for finding a solution in starting that thread. Both were presented a problem in front of their goal, and both found different solutions to the problem.

^Totally my thought^


Joe, I DID post Dizzy Dragon, and I see nothing wrong with RW2's rules. It would just be approved anyway.

look there is no point debating because nobody is going to listen and its just starting to sound worse and worse what Badnik did.

you were impatient, simple. Its posted in easily 3 different places that a tournament had to be approved still despite winning the poll... and approval is pretty much the number 1 rule in here.

now back on topic and everyone just wait for ACAMS to open sign ups

(also I couldnt find his robot in his last 100 posts)

right now that everyone has finished taking whatever shots they can at me when all I am doing is asking you to follow rules.

ACAMS has changed the permissions for the sign ups section.
I have modified the new sign ups rules.

Badnik you have to make your sign ups thread in the correct section and I will move across the user posts, etc once its approved. 

how about you all just learn a lesson from this instead of fighting with me again? rules are rules and cannot be changed for anyone.

I will repost Dizzy Dragon tomorrow (because obviously it's not simple enough to go back 10 pages in the replica thread)

its as simple as you waiting less then a quarter of a day for the thread section to be fixed.
