Anyone interested:
The BattleBots Reddit are running a DSL 2.2 IRL HW tournament.
https://www.reddit.com/r/battlebots/comments/50smrw/redditbots_heavyweight_standard_2016_official/

They've made a point of 'no SnS' and 'only 2 sawblade' rules but... BFE isn't outlawed and neither is cheatbot2.
Time to go crazy.
Beta Hammer Crasp Drone incoming.

BattleWens is down.
I talk something in discord and then
Got a new tourament idea.

Bot Type Wars:
This time will be stock.
Each entry will choose bot type and bot type chassis.
The bot type chassis will be 3 choice (or four or anything) (a Popup chassis will be Little Medium,Medium,Big and Very Big)
You can make a chassis yourself if you want, BUT need to check chassis size is little medium,medium,big and very big (or sometime around little very big)
If the people choosen a bot type, the people must choose a chassis (bot type chassis) Like Wedge and non-wedge (or make yourself a chassis), if the people choosen a chassis, then start building and sent to me
Meltybrain SnS,Trinity SnS and any that make no sense will be banned (sorry DarkNSit v1)(Meltybrain also banned)
Double Bracket. (Win and Lose Bracket)
Ring Arena BO3.
Hybrids allowed but Popup/Wammer are also allowed, HS/VS/Hammer/Poker is banned (being SHW)
250.0-800.0 Middleavyweight

WeN · « **Reply #1002 on:** September 23, 2016, 02:51:54 AM »

Another idea:
Boxing Bots:
Ironforge 1.1 MW,HW and SHW
Ring Arena
Poker,HS,Popup,Hammer,SideHammer,SnS (is allowed but meltybrain banned),Hammer and VS are allowed this this.
Hammer 20kg is allowed but some other weapon are also allowed

Hybrids allowed but I will check.
Double Bracket

Little Chassis Clash:
DSL 2.2 Heavyweight
All the bot much build form this chassis (coming soon)
Bracket system will be People Choice's Bracket System
BBEANS Arena v1 Hazard on
BO3

Clone Robot Go Go!:
Stock anyweight
You must choose which bot to clone form ai pack, showcase and anywhere.
Ring Arena BO3

Hammer will be no limit use, but all of the weapon (expect hammer) has 15 per use limits.

Bracket system will be People Choice's Bracket System

Ring Arena BO3

Boxing bots:
Could be cool, but 15 of any weapon is too much, nobody is spamming 15 of a weapon component in IF. Maybe make it so you're only allowed the 25kg(?) boxing glove hammer as well?

Little Chassis Clash sounds identical to the Clone Clash tournament I did

Clone Robot Go Go sounds like that one tournament geice is hosting

I know this is surely wrong time but will anyone be hosting any tournaments with DSL 2.2? I know that Craaig and RC are holding ones.. anyone else?

WeN · « **Reply #1005 on:** September 30, 2016, 03:20:14 AM »

I am thinking new idea.

Wen Wars:
Stock, DSL and Ironforge MW
Anyone must use wen avatar as decal for Robot:

If you didn't include one, I will add it for you.
No SnS Trinity
BBEANS Arena v2 (Reskined)
BO3

BeetleDerby:
Beetleweight Ironforge.
DSL S
No SnS.
Ring Arena BO1
Points System
3 Points for win
-1 Points for lost
0 Points for tie
Hovak Explosion second time = -10 points
Win a boss battle = 5 points
Lost a boss battle = -5 points
If the points is tie, 1v1.
If the robot hovak Explosion more, then out of the tourament.

Prize for these tourament idea (mine not you) is 200.0kg overweight allowed for winner.

Wen, you always post ideas but never go through with them. Just go with whatever you think is best. You won't get anywhere if you're simply waiting for a standing ovation because of your idea.

kix · « **Reply #1007 on:** October 05, 2016, 03:52:49 PM »

New idea!

Not sure how will it go but prolly on dsl 2.2

Again.. this is an idea!

what does 3ds max have to do with this? Do you even know how to AI bots? How do you expect to edit videos when you can't even crop screenshots?

kix · « **Reply #1009 on:** October 05, 2016, 03:56:55 PM »

No... i meant for someone to host a damn tournament..i have a peanut of pc.. and 3ds max is for creating components... and for croping pics.. excuse me but i dont have that fancy adobe photoshop thingy.. and after croping it in ms paint it looks like crap.. all low res..

Why would anyone spend their time to host your tournament idea for you?

It was 30!

And i still dont kow how to make it work

wakkydude · « **Reply #1013 on:** October 05, 2016, 04:35:12 PM »

So: would anyone get involved with a one-off stock full CF (excluding unlimited weight) tournament? It's a really, really stupid idea I've been sitting on for a while and would probably only ever work once, but I'm curious as to absolutely how far RA2 can be possibly pushed when the rules are lifted on component placement.

apanx · « **Reply #1014 on:** October 05, 2016, 04:40:23 PM »

CF hedgehog bot with indestructible razors attached to chassis pointing all directions.

Oh god, that would be something else...

wakkydude you should just host it. Pretty easy when you have literally 1 rule.

I will need to get to learning to AI but it's something I've wanted to do for a while anyway.

I'll definitely put this on my radar, but if anyone else wants the idea before I can get to it it's free.

yugitom · « **Reply #1018 on:** October 06, 2016, 01:19:34 PM »

This is not specifically addressed to you, wakky, but I cannot stress enough, especially to any prospective hosts out there, how easy AI'ing is. You don't need to know how to code. You simply need to know what to copy and where to paste. It really is as simple as that.
