Those bots look badass.

I'm glad it went quality over quantity in entries for this one :P
Anyway, expect the first 4 matches up tonight.

Looks like it should be a pretty awesome tournament. Shame about the size of it, though, but if it were any bigger, then it probably would have taken a lot longer. Some pretty good bots in this, too. I'm really looking forward to the matches. =D

SHW bots give me the jibblies.  They all look so menacing.
 
  Lots of punty-looking vertical spinners here.

Quick Reviews:

SHW-Miss America = Looks like a gut ripping beast.  The 6wd is going to save it from doom quite a bit.  Nice build

Carbon Copy 2 = What it lacks in destruction capabilities it makes up for with style.  I like the look of the bot, but I don't think it will win much.

Hard Target = FYI it is slow... probably will not fare well against any of the competitors.  I would venture to say it is the SFTW of the tourney.  :P

Cybernetic Tracer =  At first I was like O.o !!!  But then I counted up the weight used for weapons and concluded that it probably does not spin up very fast.  Good arena choice for this bot though.

Recoil = Hard to tell how powerful the weapon is... but knowing Mike, it is no slouch.  Grippy wheels with sufficient drive look good.  I think it will be bouncy when it loses a few teeth... might spell doom for the OOTA potential.

Fatal Exception = Nice compact, speedy, bot. Looks great, but without wedges I think it will not fare well against the punty vertical spinners.  However, since it wont go out of the (home) arena... it does have the potential to Win By Points if it can make its competitors unstable and inefficient.

Panodrum V2 (Pandorum?) = Unique weapon setup... Though I think the collision mesh might be making the hammers less effective with that setup.  Also, with those motors... one lost axe and that bot will be bouncing around like crazy.  I don't think it will be stable long enough to win much.

400 = I keep mentioning stability... I sound like a broken record.  But, once again, I think that stability will play a huge role in the success of this bot.  With that arena... it has a great chance of sending itself flying out and losing the match.  I don't think that the wedge setup will help it be punty at all.  Just a guess.


Pick to win=  Cybernetic Tracer.  Despite my guess that it will spin up very slow... I still think that it has the greatest chance to win all its home matches.  The containment arena will keep all opponents within and this bot will slowly shred them.  I think it is the best combo in the tourney, hands down.

First 4 matches up and the standings updated! Possibly with bad editing! For the next matches there won't be music, i'll turn the volume down a bit so there are the in game sound effects.

Recoil's my pick.

I'm with you on that one.

Shooooot! I have my bot ready, but I forgot to enter it! I blame procrastination. Could I send it now? I completely understand if you refuse, seeing as it would complicate everything.

EDIT: Woops, seems this tournament is farther along than I thought. Ah well. My sincerest apologies for not getting my bot in on time, seeing as I had a free place and all.

You spelled Pandorum's name wrong. (I uderstand it though)

Ha, see what I did there

Post by: Conraaa on October 22, 2011, 03:24:10 AM
Yeah, it's too far ahead for me to shoehorn you in Urjak, sorry.
I'll save your reserved spot for my next tourney :D

And Preytor, I'll fix it next time I can be bothered. But I think Panodrum has a nice ring to it. :P

Yeah, Massimov's bot is pretty sick. So is DSC's <3

I'd have to say, going by looks alone, my favourite is NFX's

Just filmed some more matches.
Expect 8 more today. :D

edit: Ok, 7/8 of them are uploaded. DSC vs MassimoV is taking an age because it's long. But it'll be up in a bit.

I'll have a win/loss record up after I've got all the videos up and counted up all the points one last time. Which shouldn't be too long. I'm on a roll now, churning out videos!
I've got a excel spreadsheet with everything in. Kill/death ratios. Amount of Havok Ko's, Home/Away wins for each person. The lot :D

Awesome. =D So we'll have a bunch of random facts at the end, like we did midway through?
Title: Re: Home And Away SBV *I'm back!*

And a list of what happened in every match if you played your cards right.

More videos up today, hopefully.
Also would anyone have any problem with me not doing vote awards for this? Activity seems to be a bit low on it and I don't want to have to go "And with two votes the winner of this award is...!" Any awards I gave out would be statistical ones. (1st Place, Least Ko'd bot .etc)
Title: Re: Home And Away SBV *I'm back!*
Post by: NFX on November 19, 2011, 05:09:53 AM

And I'd be happy with that, I suppose. It might be because there's not many participants, and there was that gap where nothing really happened for about a month. Should pick up again, hopefully. =)

You have my seal of approval to not give out any awards thanks.  :gawe:

Tommorow i'll have some mildly interesting stats up and no voting, purely statistical awards! Like what Ironbot is going to do! Yay!

Well, this has come to an end. Thanks to anyone who participated! All eight of you. :P
