Post by: Shield on March 08, 2017, 07:32:29 AM
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/86746DSL 2.2 2017-03-08 21-04-33-299 - Copy.jpg)

i have the absolute best tourney record so lets do this

Building Rules:
-DSL 2.2 Standard
-Heavyweight
-DSC's IRL color extender pack is allowed
-No Cheatbot2
-No bot building/editing outside of the botlab
-Mechavore and Minion discs are banned.
-RA2CF is not allowed
-Rule of 7 break is allowed
-Multibots are allowed so long as their combined weight is not more than 800KG
-Bots must have a capable drive (minimum 2 motors, 2 wheels), placement doesnt matter, as long as they are included in the bot
-Treaded bots will receive a 150KG cushion
-Smart zones do not count towards your weight
-Flamethrowers are allowed if you really want em

Scoring:
-Your score will be the amount of time you can survive against the two AI'd SHW's in a 3 minute match.
-IF you eliminate one of the SHW's (KO/Immobilization/OOTA), your score will be [the time left in the match when you knocked out the SHW]+[Overall time of survival] I.E. Your bot survived 2:20, but at 1:10 your bot eliminated one of the SHW's, your score would then be (3:00-1:10)+2:20=4:10
-If you eliminate both SHW's, your score will be calculated using the same formula mentioned above for each respective bot+remaining time
-Bot with the longest time wins.

Match Rules:
-Ring Arena will be used
-If a havok occurs for the first two times, the match will be restarted. On the third time that a bot havoks, It will be disqualified.
-Due to the unique nature of The SHW VS' chassis, it may sometimes fall out of the arena but not be counted as eliminated, so I will base the score on the moment one of it's intact components touches the arena floor

Submitting Rules:
-You are allowed to update as much as you'd like until signups close
-I can AI for you, but you will not get to complain if I "ai'd it wrong" unless it's a critical error (Invertible bot not moving while it's upside down, bot not using its srimech)
-I reserve the right to reject any bot that I find unacceptable. But tbqh as long as it doesnt crash the game or break any rules above it should be fine
-One entry per person, But I may make it two if I do not receive enough entries
-16 entries

The Bots:

if there are any missing rules or questions just shoot

Entrants:
1. Dark-Al
2. Thrackerzod
3. Badger
4. Guldenflame
5. Thyrus
6. Neon Calypso
7. TGM

DSL-S you say?
I give this a go for a few laughs.
Besides, it's anyways nice when some considers to set up a DSL-S tournament, as opposed to a Realistic one. Brings more variety into the forums, allows us to build crazy contraptions or bots which goes against all rules of realism; and it's worth a good bit of fun for once in a while.

Is Rule of 7 break allowed?
Or maybe CF?
-No bot building/editing outside of the botlab
This doesn't 100% ensure the ban of either of these.

CF is almost always illegal in competitive metas, and outside editing has never been ensured, it's always been up to the host to know what is and isn't legal.

"-Multibots are allowed so long as their combined weight is 800KG"

So the total weight cannot equal 780? Unless I'm reading that part wrong.

That wasn't a bad description. I mean, have you ever seen a dual perm hanging off of a polycarb stick IRL?

hmm. a dsl-s tourney. why not.

Also I have a pretty good counter to both bots, especially in a low arena like that and against high-power or speed bots.

Sometimes I don't know, but it always seems like everyone thinks the l in my name happens to be an I half the time like when I first joined the forums, when some users like Rob mistakenly thought/ misread that. When it's a common mistake which can be easily fixed, I do honestly just want to correct someone about it.

You'll get used to it.  People spell Thrackerzod wrong all the time as well.  (Thackerzod, Thrackerzoid, Thrakerzod, etc.)

Yeah, it was me wanting to correct Shield. Besides, even when Shield got name wrong, at least it's not as bad as  someone deliberately get your name wrong.
