im ditching my spinners tournament idea (not much was planned on it and other things have come to mind) so if you are still after a new name you can have TNT (twist n turn) or another I came up was TNR (tumble n rumble) you can use either :-D or even modify what they stand for its really up to you


TNT is better.

How about a tourney that doesn't use those BBEANS, RAW, CC, DFHSHSDHS things? I would like to see a name like that, how about Robo crush, or Mechanums?
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Heh. I was going to propose a DSL AI flipper tourney in a modified Combat Arena, the tourney name being Pinnacle.

But there wouldn't be many possible variations in designs.. And the arena would have to be tweaked to be good for all types of bots if it was an open design contest. Well, all types except crawlers.

no credit needed it was merely scribble on paper for me lol

if you like that name by all means use it but a tournament doesn't need to have an acronym for a name. ktob isn't something that sounds to pleasing in a shorter form were as RAW sounds cool and has a meaning, TNT also sounds cool as people think of the explosives but it also has a meaning

@ S32: cc? was that clash cubes you were talking about as that was just an abbreviation others were calling it, I actuality wanted it to be Clash Cubes and if people wanted to abbreviate it then simply "Cubes"... no inside meaning :-D

If I make a tourney, I know what I'll call it.

This thread is going down the tubes, fast.

If it doesn't get back on topic and start going somewhere in the next couple posts, I (or more likely ACAMS) will close it.

well, actually, it kind of is on topic in the sence that we're discussing possible names for this tourney. just my opinion.


on topic: what about Gargantuin Machines Of Destruction SHW tourney? that would work, roboman.

edit: damn. you beat me. robo reaction's ok, but Robotic rEaction: Tournament of Nefarious Annihilators (RETNA) sounds much more cooler IMO.

Riiiiiiight... like CRAP and sh** are actually possible names.

I see nothing wrong with "Kill The Other Bots".  It has that kind of "so-stupid-it's-cool" feel.

Now start talking about the actual tournament (not just names), or better yet wait to discuss it until it's actually ready to start.

There's so many tournament threads going on in here, I'm this close | | to closing this one, I just don't want to be the mean, crabby admin that doesn't give people a chance to start tournaments.
