Don't allow the judge gavel head.

Whoops, I put except for handle instead of except for gavel. I will fix.

Rather than mentioning every component that isn't allowed, why not just list the components that are allowed? It would be a lot harder, if not impossible for people to find loopholes.

I didn't??????

Will enter.

Hokay, arrangements made. Now to see if DSL will run on this computer...

EDIT: Yes, yes it will. Now to study the ancient methods!

I have a proposal: Since it would be difficult for me to work on this tournement during the Fall when school starts, I will:
* Open Signups soon
* Work on AIing and recording
* Edit everything and make sure it's perfect
* Make awesome splashes
* Finish all the videos
Then, on September 22nd, the first day of fall, I will release my first video. After that I will release another video every 2 or 3 days so other people have time to finish their school work too.

Sound good?

Now a signups topic.

Quote from: helloface199 on July 12, 2013, 06:20:59 PM

I am going to be starting an IRL DSL2 tournament in the Containment Cube. There will be 6 heats (24 robots. In case of a lack of robots, you may send 1 extra robot. You MUST state which robot will be your main robot. Your extra robots will not affect your rank). Everything will be in RW Series 4 format.

Here are the rules/restrictions:

- I will be AIing, but I have the right to ask you do do it yourself
- ~~State that~~ nobody can be entered until a bot is received and accepted
- The main weight class will be Heavyweight
- IRL is strongly enforced
- No unrealistic wedges
- The top 6 seeds will get to choose which heat to be in AFTER randomization
- The ONLY glitch allowed is the small chassis glitch.
- Arena hazards will be on
- Your bot can be modified or changed, as long I receive the upgraded bot before the deadline
- Nobody can be entered until a bot is received and accepted
- Bots must show controlled movement
- Walkers and Shufflers will gain a 400kg weight bonus, but at least 400kg must be used on the movement system.
- Matches are 4 minutes long, aside from the Grand Final which will be 2 minutes long
- No custom components
- 1st havok, restart; 2nd havok, your bot is eliminated
- No custom armour
- Bots can only be built in botlab
- No Trov Glitching, Hax Mode, BFE, etc
- If you want to make a multibot, you must send in another bot for the first round melee
- No Heavy Plows, (Steel V's are okay) or Titanium Sheets (half-sheets are okay).
- The only cheatbot2 components allowed are:

Buster Wheel
- Growler Wheel
- M.O.E. Wheel
- All Judge extras, except for the gavel.
- HMN Tooth
- Matilda Flywheel
- Beta Wheel (under extras)
- Beta handles
- If a bot is out of control for 30 seconds it is eliminated (if a bot is just randomly bouncing around the arena, in counts as being out of control).
- You have an unlimited amount of upgrades. This means you can send a new robot too.
- Badnik must enter BuffalOWNED (please?)

Awards to be given out at the end:
Gold, Silver, and Bronze titles (1st, 2nd, 3rd if you haven't already guessed)
Coolest Robot Award
Most Entertaining Robot
Best Engineering/Most Unique Award
Host Destroyer (Whoever destroys my bot)
Most Destructive
The Lolwut Award (Weirdest loss or win)
Honourable Mention (A bot that did really well, and probably should have made it farther)

Judges will mark in 5 categories:
Damage (or in the case of flippers/rammers, flipping/ramming power) - 3
Control - 3
Aggression - 2
Style -1
Entertainment - 1
(If you are interested in becoming a judge, PM me. You do not have to have an entry to become a judge)
(In case of tie, there will be a clawtop fight with infinite time)

Side Competitions (Send me a message telling me which side-competitions you would like to enter. Side competitions will not affect your rank. You may enter in as many side competitions as you want):

*Junker | A 1v1 with WreckTangle 3. For each component you knock off WreckTangle, you earn a point. Eliminating WreckTangle gives you an extra 5 point.
*Sumo | A 1 minute 1v1 on FlexTop with hazards and weapons off. You may enter an additional bot if you would like.
*The All-Stars | (after tournament) the Top 6 ranked robots will face off in a Dutch Robot Wars Series 2 format.
*Grudge Matches | (self explanatory)
*Challenge Belt | I will give the Challenge Belt to one of the moderate-high ranking robots, then others will compete to get it. Same rules as Robot Wars.
*Mantisweight | 300kg weight limit. All matches in rumble format
*KOTH | On the Lumizone Arena
*Annihilator | Four random robots will start in the arena. When a robot is eliminated, the fight is stopped and another random robot is put in to replace it.

Seeded 4th....better make an effort this time....

Camaro Kid · « **Reply #28 on:** August 08, 2013, 06:11:39 PM »

Shall be sending an entry very soon

Hydro · « **Reply #29 on:** August 08, 2013, 11:33:37 PM »

HYDROVIAN EXPEDITIONARY FORCE, ACTIVATE!

Will start my bot tomorrow during the morning. Might even finish it.

helloface · « **Reply #30 on:** August 08, 2013, 11:39:19 PM »

I'll run signups for two weeks, but I may extend the deadline if I don't get enough entries.

helloface · « **Reply #31 on:** August 09, 2013, 09:49:57 PM »

Don't forget about those side tournaments!

dahpretzel1 · « **Reply #32 on:** August 12, 2013, 05:21:21 PM »

I apologize for asking this question, but this will be my first tournament and I don't know how to go about sending in my robot as an entry. I assume it's through a PM but I don't know how to attach the file.

MassimoV · « **Reply #33 on:** August 12, 2013, 05:24:14 PM »

You can compress your bot into a .rar or .7zip file and use the file uploader to send a link for download. You can also upload the bot to the bot exchange and send the link from there.

Go to the BotExchange.
Click on "Upload a DSL HW"
Go to "Dowload a DSL HW"
Right-click on your bot and copy the URL
Then paste it into a PM and send it to me.

dahpretzel1 · « **Reply #35 on:** August 12, 2013, 06:03:07 PM »

Thanks guys! I just uploaded and sent my bot! Hope everything runs smoothly

Hydro · « **Reply #36 on:** August 12, 2013, 06:06:32 PM »

God**** you, builder's block...

helloface · « **Reply #37 on:** August 12, 2013, 06:15:33 PM »

Just build a generic spinner, or something that's really close to a replica. You could always enter something crappy then change it before signups end.

Hydro · « **Reply #38 on:** August 12, 2013, 06:17:58 PM »

Meh. I have a vague and general idea of what I want to build, just not the willpower to get off my fat ass and develop it into a workable design.

Kid_Krusher13 · « **Reply #39 on:** August 13, 2013, 02:05:32 AM »

Ah yes, I will enter the main competition, sumo, annihilator, and KOTH. As I asume the weight for all is HW, I will start work tomorrow.

Poll

New proposal? Y/N
