I'm working on something similar for RA2TC4, which will not carry out the same format as 1, 2 & 3.

Sage could be "World Champion" since he won BBEANS 6.

Yes, Based off BBEANS..

Sage is World Champion at DSL right now..
FB is World Champion at Stock right now

but this idea of BBEANS being declared world status would be providing the tournament remains with no unique restrictions..

I have an idea to throw out to the rest of you people. Why don't we do a world championship. One for Stock and another for DSL?
That's certainly an interesting idea - what weightclass though?
Quoted for truth- as long as half of the representatives are not English, with the other nations only getting one each  XD

I had the best idea ever. A rumble tourney... with 0.5 gravity.

I have an idea similar to Pot Luck but with hybrids and Stock MW to make it a challenge to build. The idea goes like this for example:

Brazil. Chooses Bar HS/Rammer
Ireland Chooses Tribar VS/Flipper
France Chooses Angled Disc HS/Wammer
Kazakhstan Chooses Gyro Drill/Clamp

The two weapon types in thier chosen hybrid can be thrown with another chosen bot type to create a new hybrid like this.

Brazil. Has Clamp/Angled Disc HS.
Ireland Has Bar HS/Rammer
France Has Flipper/Gyro Drill
Kazakhstan Has Wammer/Tribar VS

Also to make it a bit more interesting VS, HS's and thier Angled Versions will have 4 versions of there weapon

1.Tribar
2.Flail
3.Bar
4.Disc

And thats so far what I can think of when it comes to the rules.

I know it is a cloned idea with differences but does it sound alright?

1. I have school in under two weeks and it gets serious because I the school year after that I will be doing GCSE's
You'll have to wait for the poll, so you won't have to worry to much. But if you get voted in, you could do it over the weekends
2. I share this laptop with someone else so putting it with school it makes about half an hour to film.
Use the half hour wisely
3. I can't AI.
Find someone to do it for you
4. I don't have a Youtube account and don't want one until about the end of the year.
Use GTM's YT account
5. My siblings would try and ruin it and make it gay and nerdy which would put me off for about 6 months. (There the ones who are trying to ruin Robot Combat for me)
Ignore them and tell them to get a life.
6. I want to improve my robot buliding a bit first.
Unless you are going to enter this doesn't matter
7. I am not allowed to download stuff off the internet unless they are something like AI Packs and music.
Ask the AIer to make the entrants into an AI pack
So that is why.

How?
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Had this mad idea for a tournament:
It's a standard Stock/DSL one, with prizes.
However, the winner of the tournament can give a 2nd place prize to anyone, no matter where they are on the bracket. The 2nd place winner can give a 3rd place prize to anyone, and the rumble winner/3rd placer can give a small consolidation prize to anyone.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.
