What's with this lousy off-topic advertisment CUDA? lmao. just kidding.

You could make a flipper tournament into the Octogon Arena. Believe me, they'll be a lot of bot flight here and "goal!" in the deathpits here. There they'll be flippers and rams too, a good fight there.

Perhaps put a house rule as "at least one burst motor firing upwards in the bot" (e.g. flipper or popup)

How about if its going to be a flipper battle a flip out arena?

70 CUDA · « **Reply #5 on:** April 21, 2008, 05:40:42 PM »

i can make an arena for you buts kinda hard to AI a bot that knows it has to flip a bot out at a certin peramater. ill talk to mad and see if he can with this matter. it would have to be a best of 3 matchs to lower the luck fator i think.

I would join with joy, but I could need how to use that damned rupt glitch which doesn't works.

70 CUDA · « **Reply #7 on:** April 21, 2008, 06:00:01 PM »

ya it dose but it takes a lot of batt power. i had to use 1 black and a nifty to rupt a DDT

paprika · « **Reply #8 on:** April 21, 2008, 06:40:49 PM »

i would not allow a rupt flipper to enter
plus thanks for the help

70 CUDA · « **Reply #9 on:** April 21, 2008, 06:58:28 PM »

why not its the most effective type of flipper but it has the HUGH drawback of needing all that battery power. plues its not very controllable even with AI. BTW this is a AI tourny right?

70 CUDA · « **Reply #10 on:** April 22, 2008, 08:47:26 AM »

ill tell you what im gonna try to make the arena like a very low upside down "v" about a 25 deg incline on each side with

raisers at the top of the V that will throw you towards the bottem end and a set there that throw you towards the top it would be mayham if you ai didnt avoid the hazards. the end walls will be high but you can toss out at the sides. im makeing the arena regardless but i think it would be great for your tourney. its just an idea

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #11 on:** April 22, 2008, 04:23:25 PM »

Dang. I was going to enter a rupter lol.

Naryar · « **Reply #12 on:** April 22, 2008, 04:53:17 PM »

I would have also used one - my first, if I can get the glitch to work.

BTw, do you guys tried ruptig hammers, and are they efficient?

paprika · « **Reply #13 on:** April 22, 2008, 08:02:46 PM »

cus i don't know how to make them, i dunno i don't have a clue how to ai a bot, DSl Rulez

paprika · « **Reply #14 on:** April 22, 2008, 08:04:25 PM »

sounds like a pretty awesome arena and i think a flipper tourney would be great on it. although i think we should have someone else host it as i do not trust this guy with a tourney as he sounds about 6 years old

Naryar · « **Reply #17 on:** April 24, 2008, 09:14:46 AM »

I'll compete. I'll made an inverted popup (e.g. a flipper but with weapons), sorta Matrix Array.

We need to set the weight clas too. I think Lightweights are out.
