Very sorry about the delay.  Let's do this!

Splashes
WARNING: HUGE


Brackets


Videos


Also, "Do some LW, then some MW, then some HW, then some SHW, then repeat." won the poll, so that's what we'll be doing.  Predict away!

Do you like my bots?

I have a good chance in LW

I'm screwed in HW. My bot sucks against VS.

So apparently I had a wire crossed or something and did the splash with the wrong version of Jamied's HW.  It should be this:

I'll fix the splash in a second, and hopefully get some LW matches out later today.

playzooki vs Mr. AS (https://youtu.be/Ey7_3HZ-rek)
I know this may come off as salty, but I'm not so sure if playzooki's bot is all that controlled. I imagine it could drive forward without spinning up the weapon, but the moment the spinning weapon hits something, it just flaps around with no hope/intention of restabilizing.

That's a good point.  I did remember the controlled movement rule this time, as well.  Any thoughts?

Post by: Reier on March 06, 2017, 01:09:37 PM
i'm fine with disqualifying an entry at the signups for non-controlled movement, but not after the tournament has begun.
it's unfair to DQ someone partway through even if it is bending the rules. The host needs to kick them before it begins, it's too late now.

This tbh. Also, it's not a bot type that's actually designed to spikeball anyway; it'll probably be a liability for it against a different bot type.

If it breaks the rules, it needs to gtfo. No question. Rules are there to be followed, his robot doesn't follow the rules, hence it should be disqualified. Doesn't matter if it's during the tournament or after, cheaters and rule breakers should be disqualified.

Yeah, I decided to run it as Best of 3 + Single elim rather than Best of 1 + Double elim, to see how it went.  I think I'll go back to the latter option in the future.

Alright, so I did like a rankings thing:

rankings thing (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yHe-4gPH5pm4AwQWddUg5T59zOEONJXNx4Y_TKzFaRw/edit#gid=0)

Basically, you're ranked by the number of matches you won divided by the total amount of matches you were in.  Lemme know if I miscounted anything.

Anyway, lemme give out some awards before I end this thing.

Best Bot With A Biggie Smalls Preview Picture: Suggested by Mr. AS, this award goes to BIGGIE BOTBASH!
Best Bot Built By Thrackerzod: Controversially, this award goes to Probably Rob's NOT Mr. Bones Wild Ride!
Hardest Match To Record: Anti Matter and Popup Cafe vs Absolute Madman.  No joke here, this match just kept crashing for some reason.
Best Match That Didn't Get Recorded: NOT Mr. Bones vs Censored, specifically the one round where NOT Mr. Bones won by pinning Censored on its side.
Sonic "Gotta Go Fast" The Hedgehog Award: With a grand total of 8 wheels, and 8 twinbird motors, this award goes to The Man With The Big Knees!
Beating The Unbeatable Award: This award goes to GAH I LOVE BEING PURPLE for being the only robot to ever defeat the LW champion, Neutralizer.
Best Builder Who Has Entered All Of My Tournaments: RedAce wins this award, a decision no one could have seen coming!
Pizzaguy's Pick: This final, and very prestigious, award goes to Bigger Business!

Thanks to everyone who competed and watched the tournament!  I hope you'll join me again in my next tournament!
