General Tournament Discussion

[Jamin]

I want a crawlers only tournament...

[G.K.]

There will be a ruling on this in time.

[ianh05]

I am unhappy I'm not able to include this in my tournament as a single 1 on 1 round but here's the idea:

-List of builders who entered are posted.
-Each person selects the one builder they want to face.
-Each entry can be selected a maximum number of times (2-3) to ensure variety.
-Best performing robot gets the most points, worst performing robot gets 0 points.
-An impartial community member who isn't entered gets to select who the host faces.

Could be labelled as the "The Unseen Enemy challenge". This would make for a fun challenge as it allows for more participation from the builder, of course this would mean that all entries would have to be kept secret.

Tournament idea:

Robotic Empire:


Heres how it goes:

16 bots knockout

Winner "captures" the opponents bot and can use that or their own bot for next match:

When it gets to the final however they must use their own bot and the three other bots they have "captured"  in a 4 on 4 match.

I am considering making the tourney over the next few weeks. All I have to do is get Windows movie maker and some computer video recording program. And of course someone to AI.

Just teach yourself to AI, it only takes like less than 30 mins to learn.

hi there

Had an idea for a new multi-event tournament :D Robo-lympics:


*Host controlled bots.
*events include:
-Speed Time Trial, A one lap time trial around an arena.
-Long Jump, which bot can jump the furtherest of a ramp (custom arena required complete with distance markers).
-High Jump, which bot can jump the highest (would need a wall reskin).
-Weight-lifting, Which bot can lift the most weight.
-Shot put, which robot can throw an object the furtherest.
-gymnastics, which robot can do the most flips.
-Wrestling, which robot can pin the other for 3 seconds.

Tournament Guide Section 5 (Discussion Forum) has been updated. Point 4 now contains information as to the building standards relating to the mod a tournament will be run in (Stock, DSL, etc.).

[Sylandro]

I'm thinking of hosting a DSL IRL MW Tournament, would anyone like to join me with hosting the tournament?

[Avalanche]

DSL IRL MW?Ok.Depends on who is AI'ing.Maybe half and half?Also we should make it very small, as not to fail miserably.

Making a Stock MW hybrid tourney but need someone who will be able to AI at some point between now and Mid-January.

To host a tournament you have to know how to AI.

[Mystic2000]

I have a tourney idea but i want to know your opinion about it before starting:

War Machines

Stock SHW
Combat arena with hasards off (this is for reduce lag)
BFE, AAM, Hax mode and anything made outside the botlab except skinning is prohibited
AI parts and 140 cm extenders are allowed
Crawlers are allowed IF they show controlled mouvement
Other uncontrollable bot types are forbidden
Trinity glitch is Banned

Any ideas about this ?
