Just The Two Of Us - Discussion
« on: November 11, 2011, 07:35:14 PM »

Discussion.

The 5 Ws.

What? is this even.
Just The Two Of Us is a Beetle-weight tag-team tournament.

Who? will be involved
You (and a team-mate, optional) will be pitted against 11 other teams in two- on- two battles, the winning teams (implying that there are  more than one), will fight each other to decide the best team and the champion of Just The Two Of Us.

Where? will the matches be
The tag-team matches will be fought in the DSL Tournament Arena.
[IMGPH]
The singles matches will be fought in the Ant-weight arena.
[IMGPH]

When? will the sign-ups end (relative to beginning)
The signups will end 30 days after they start, so, you have plenty of time to team up and make your bots.

Why? am I doing this
Well, I've decided that If I'm to earn respect, I should contribute, and the one thing I could never do is host a successful tournament. So I'll give it another try.


Building Rules:
A)Weight.
1.Bots will weigh no more than 175.0KG and no less than 160.0KG

B)General Building.
1.The bot will have to conform to the Realistic Rule.
2.All building must be done INSIDE the bot lab. (No BFE/any of that rubbish).
3.Both bots in the team must follow a certian theme (bot type/etc, they can also use the same weapons, and follow a general theme).
EG.
Two bots, one HS, one Drumbot, both use Light DS teeth and have a related name  will pass.

C) Permitted Bot Types.
If the bot type you want is in the list, you can use it.
Rammer;
VS;
HS
Angles VS/HS;
Face Spinner;
Sawbot;
Drumbot

12 2-bot teams? How are you gonna run that bracket? Like have 3 'winners' or something?
Also your sig is huge, just sayin' o.o
May enter with some generic Craaig-VS, depending on rules.

Does fruit count as a theme? (Was planning a fruit-named team but with different bot types)

If you use the same weapons, I guess.
(Eg. Use LDS teeth or hammers, something like that).

Unrealistic grants more building options.

Perfectly fine, It's not like unrealistic is massively impacting anyway, it' just so some things can intersect the chassis.
