I don't think so, but semi-stacking weapons should probably be allowed.

Anyway Jonzu, is my entry approved? I entered a popup the first time so technically I shouldn't be on that list. Now I entered a new bot, I'm not sure if it's accepted or not. :D

Okay, deal.

Too bad, the 5 weapons rule + no popups would make for some interesting designs. You might actually start considering stuff like sledgehammers for their kinetic energy-carrying capacity and good throwing power (Mjorhmei in BBEANS5 is a good example of this).

Then again, it would almost certainly be a VS-fest... and if VS's were banned, it would be a something else-fest... you just can't enforce variety.

I like this tourney but I can't guarantee I'll have time to make a bot for it.

despite making him a deal to keep happy that rule had to go anyway.. if you look at acams post that rule inst in there

I probably enter this

Jonzu changed the rules when we're no supposed to change the rules.

Wait, what ? All glitches are forbidden ? What does that mean ?

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:29:38 AM »

I dunno... Atleast the robot must be realistic... Just like in DSL...

Pwnator · « **Reply #27 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:35:46 AM »

Then axle loading and eFFe glitch should be allowed (though both should have heavy restrictions).

Okay, I'll fix it... (Hopefully ACAMS wont kill me...

)

It's just a minor change, so don't worry. It's not like you're changing the weight class or something. XD

Gazea2 · « **Reply #30 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:43:58 AM »

I agree. Glitches should be allowed because you can't prove that the person has/hasn't used any glitches.

Oh, that's easy. If you see a wheel that intersects with a plow, axle loading's used. If there are intersecting batteries, then it's stacking. See 3 small wedges stacked together, then that's eFFe glitch. :P

Gazea2 · « **Reply #32 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:52:55 AM »

Good point. :P

Anyway, I'll build a bot for this.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #33 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:53:09 AM »

What about realistic stacking, i.e. 2 razors overlapping. This uses no glitches but could look like eFFeing.

Pwnator · « **Reply #34 on:** May 31, 2010, 04:59:57 AM »

Just try it out yourself and if it's not possible, it's eFFeing. :P

JoeBlo · « **Reply #35 on:** May 31, 2010, 05:05:21 AM »

I dont think thats the point

he is talking about being accused of using the eFFe glitch even if its just rotating the parts to fit

Pwnator · « **Reply #36 on:** May 31, 2010, 05:08:31 AM »

That's what I was saying. The accuser should try it out himself if rotating will actually attach those components or not.

Too much time and effort. How will you get the exact same extender work, they may be rotates of flipped.

Pwnator · « **Reply #38 on:** May 31, 2010, 05:13:37 AM »

There's common sense for that. :P

Besides, if it's realistic enough for you, why complain? It's stock after all. These parts are very hard to work with to make a destructive yet realistic bot. XD

JoeBlo · « **Reply #39 on:** May 31, 2010, 06:00:40 AM »

eFFe should be allowed so long as it doesn't violate any of the other rules (like realism)
