Rules:
.DSL, Realistic rule applies, wieght can be no higher than 650 kg
.Must be a replica of a robot from series 1-5, use here for bots: http://legorobotwars.weebly.com/robots.html (http://legorobotwars.weebly.com/robots.html)
.Must work like the real thing (lifters can be flippers)
.BFE and cheatbot parts allowed only if it makes the rep more like the real thing (no overpowered reps!)
If you need to make a robot's chassis more like the real thing if it won't let you, or if you can't fit a component that would make the rep more realistic, you may use BFE. This will be determined at my discretion.
.Arena will be RW arena with hazards on
.Matches will be 3 minutes long, one fight
.Bracket will be 1-on-1 (16 entries)
.No loser's bracket
.If a match is ended by time running out, then I will decide on who advances based on the robot who overall performed best
.If a bot havoks, it gets ONE free restart
.All In-game glitches allowed if they abide by the realistic rule
.No 2 people can do the same bot, even if they are from different series
.Bot updates can be sent until splash is posted, you can change your bot only ONCE until the splash is posted
.Scorpion will be AIing for those who can't (thanks) and for those who AI their own bots, no cheaty AI.
.Bots entered must have evidence of beating Bad Dog from DSL AI

-
I'll take B2!
-

I think so. In one of his videos (I think it was in Series 2) he pitted himself after he pushed in the other bot and said something like "just like in RA2"
-
Quick! Someone PM him (or whatever you do to get a message to someone on Youtube)

I can do that if you want. I`ve written with him for some weeks.

Is this a picking-bots-through-a-free-for-all-posting-war kind of signup?
-
Oh, preytor, are you comfortable with inserting pre-ai'd bots into the game?
If not, then you could get entrants to send all bots to me, then I could make them into a small AI pack, and send to you?
-
You guys shouldn't be calling bots yet.

You aren't obligated to respect anyone's dib-call, it's simply a courtesy.
-
Did i miss anything important in the rules?
-
This should happen.
-
When this thing starts,I'm entering 2020.
-

I'll take S***. :D
-

I uncall him and pick Blade Runner X.

I'm thinking that Heavyweight class might be excessive. These are after all, replicas of 3KG lego bots, mono-weaponed with very little in the way of accoutrements. Maybe consider making this a middleweight tourney, or at least setting the cutoff to 600 KG

It's not called Replica Wars, It's called Lego Robot Wars Replica Wars
-
Added some new rules, and i think this is ready.
-
What weight class? :P
-
READ RULES
-
Just to let you know, there are way too many replica tournaments in discussion atm.
Nobody is voting them in too.
If you really don't want to be waiting a long time, I suggest you host a stock tournament.(Only one in discussion atm, which is mine) and you will most likely be voted in by the next poll.
-
I named Thunder, and if this goes through, I will compete. I will probably compete with Inertia, Season 5.
-
Added a poll
-
This could be a beetleweight tournament!
-
No, it couldn't
EDIT: DSL it is.
-
Ooh. I'll see what I can come up with. When do you plan to stop signups?
-

He can't start them yet.
-
Well, crap. Guess I had a throwback to the old system.
-
Yes i kinda dislike the new system too.
-
Impact and bump
-
Well done at a pointless bump. Now spam elsewhere. Please.
-
I AM NOT TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION WHAT YOU CALL IN THIS THREAD, WHEN THIS IS IN THE SIGNUPS SECTION, THEN I WILL ALLOW YOU TO CALL BOTS. that is if this gets to the signup section.....

Last rule:
1) You haven't been her for a year, so you have banned yourself from your own tourney
2) I haven't been here for a year, and if I can't enter I'm not AIing for you :P

EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE
-
Then state what the exceptions will be
-
I still suck at making reps and i have been here for more then a year, and some new members make awesome reps
-
Then state what the exceptions will be
If there is a builder that has been here for less than 1 year, but show decent building techniques, can and will be allowed to enter.
-
Just let anybody enter, does it really matter?
-

Yes kinda, i don't want n00b bots taking slots from good builders
-
Then the good builders should build their bots before the signups stage and send them in right away.

You present a good arguement.
*goes to add poll*
-
I hope to join.
-
Well...
Just get rid of that rule Preytor
You could put a rule saying that bots must be within 10kg of maximum weight or something like that
-

N00bs could still bypass that rule
-
You could ask for evidence of the bot beating say, slashback?

Why must you people bring such good arguements?!

Rules=edited

Destroying? What is the bot is a flipper?

Rules=edited again
-
Good :D

I actually had a similar idea to possibly implement in BBEANS7 that would weed out some of the weaker bots and make room for the more competitive entries, without unfairly excluding anyone.
It goes like this: you pick some number of reasonably tough AI bots (say, 3-5) as 'test opponents', and everyone who enters has the option of providing screenshots of their bot beating some or all of those AI bots. You don't have to beat any of those bots if you don't want to, BUT:
Priority is given to entries with the greatest number of screenshots of defeated test bots. If signups are full and someone then enters a bot with screenshots of it beating all 5 opponents, then the entries with the least screenshots would get kicked out to make room for the entries with screenshots. If there's a tie for least number of screenshots, then it goes by date of entry (so early entries still have an advantage).
Also, the test opponents you pick should be different bot types, like a wedge, a HS, and a VS or something, so if there's some bot that's really good against HS but bad against wedges, it can still provide some screenshots and secure a place.
Feel free to use that if you want. BBEANS7 still won't happen for a while and this would be a good test of the system. ;)
-
It IS happening though, right?
-
I guess, but Joe has not put up a poll, because 1 more tourney needs to finish.
.....looks around....
What, me? No...I... *sprints away*
