Hi All
I've just been looking on the RA2 Wiki.
Looking on the Notible Users page, i just found out that Lu-Tze passed away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1:shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock:
So, after Wild Robots Series 3 is done, i'll be hosting the Wild Robots: Lu-Tze Tribute Tournament!
And, i will be letting you guys get involved, so, all you have to do is host your bot on a website for me to download, and then i will give it a spot in the tournament.
So, show your respect for a famous RA2 female modder, who has worked on DSL-TC, and enter your bot.
My bots will also be entering, but i'm sure you will pwn them! :-D
Thanks
Whamett

Many questions
1. Rules?
2. What is Wild Robots 3?
3. Can we pm the bot to you if we don't have a website, because it is like that with all other tourneys.
-
Heh, He's barely told us what Wild robots is, and He's acting like it's the most popular thing ever.
I think clickbeetle is more suited for a tribute tournament.
-
Good idea, bad timing, and I hardly think you are the one who should be doing this. If ANYONE would do something like this it would be a member of the DSL team, and we already have about 5 tournaments going on at the same time, which as acams said, is coming to a halt.
-
Actually, once BBEANS 4 Finishes, and RAW, ADDICT and Robot rampage (Which is mose of a robot battle showcase anyway) Finishes the next few fights, It's safe to say That things will be back to normal. Besides, All these Mini tournaments Allow the newcomers to show what they can do.
-
Really bad idea considering you haven't proved to anybody that your really good for hosting an AI tournament...plus I think there will be more appeasing tournaments after the current ones end...
-
Oh, That edit on the wiki was me.
-
and how would this be a tribute to lut-ze? all i see is another tournament. can someone explain?
-
I think the "tribute to Lu-Tze" tournament reason wasn't really good here. No offense to her memory.
Make a normal tournament, put on t3h requirements, but we need to start that later with 4 tourneys going on, and perhaps one more if Cuda comes back.
-
Perhaps It's using parts she made?
-
Ok, ****ing calm down!
Just ease off of me, alright!!!!!!!!!!!!1 (Sheesh!)

Wild Robots is a series that i do on You Tube, and it is fairly popular, let me tell you! (22 subscribers, p.s.!)
My account is here:

You just watch some of my work.
All i'm saying is that i thought i could do a mini tournament in memory of one of the greatest modders, and instead of it just being me who's bots fight, that i could get you guys involved!
And Wild Robots Series 3 is the series i'm on, i'm on Series 3 of Wild Robots.
Its different because i'm getting you guys involved.
You can PM me (can you attatch files on private messages?)
You can use any components you want, but i'll most probably wont have most of the components that you lot have, so you'll have to attach them as well.
Ok, good, now were clear!
-
You can attach files to PMs
-
So, E-mails or Private Messages?
-
You can upload a ZIP or RAR on the GTMs file uploader, and use the link to it.
-
Oh, ok!
Now I understand!
I didnt know that you had a youtube account!
:-D
-
if theres anyone who should be doing this, it should be someone with experice and someone who was on this furom when she was
-
Yea, I think you used her name to try to get more people to join.
She was actually a good friend of mine. We talked countless times. Spent many nights talking(miss ya lucy!). Don't get me wrong, its cool that you are putting together a tournament, and that you respect her, however I am somewhat insulted that you threw her name one it and did not attach any rules that Involve anything about her.
-
I think that using her parts for the tournament would make it a real Lu-Tze Tribute tournament.
-
That does sound fun. Just ban mini cannons... otherwise we'd have a tournament full of bots with 50 mini cannons that kill each other during the countdown.
-
What is it with mini cannons? To be fair, I think there would be some interesting fights with Projectiles. Think of Alcoholic stepfather's battles, or Texas heat's bashups.
-
What is it with mini cannons?
All of the building would be "how many minicannons will be on my bot and how will my bot be armored?"
=> No HS,VS, Rammer, Hammer... but tanks, only tanks.
-
Nar's right. You really can't mix regular 'realistic' simulated robot fighting (i.e. RA2), with cannons and such. But cannon battles are fun, and call for great skill and strategy; but they'd have to be a different class than Stock and DSL bots.
Maybe there could be an "AI Cannon Bot" Tourney, using Stock and/or DSL parts. There are now a couple AI.py available so people could AI their own combat bots, either 'chassis' aiming or 'servo' aiming of weapons. Maybe I'll host this (in all my spare time) and give it a try.
I'll start a thread on this sometime soon, if there's enough interest.
-
Could be a fun idea indeed.
-
Thanks Naryar, if not a Lu-Tze Tribute tourny, then maybe just a Free For All event!
Anyone for a free-for-all?

It will be a DSL event, as i have that loaded at the moment.
Entrys will be closed in a months time, so be quick!
Sorry about the other idea, it was a lame idea, and someone like DarkRat or Starcore should do it, so can we start afreash, please? :-(
I need your name (Account) and the name of your bot.
Thanks! :-) :-) :-)

W-Nut, Hosting a Tourney is cool, and appreciated. But right now there is BBEANS going and RAW about to start. So just wait until one of these is finished, then have at it.
And when you host, start a new thread, and list your class, rules and parameters.
BTW: it's allot of work, but fun too.
-
Ok, then i will start a new thread, and just do it when the other 2 are over then!
-
I am getting REAL tired of seeing tournaments started and not finnished too!
I suggest you wait untill some of the other tournaments complete then start a new one.
The are ZERO...NONE...ZILCH.....NADA single entry sent in for the BOTM Oct.
I don't close and lock topics often, but this is gonna be one!
-
Sage and I are completing ours, ACAMS. In a couple days at most...
(I'll have Zulu beam it right over.)
When the others are done, W-Nut. And make sure you follow through...
