Title: Minor Inconveniences - SBV
Post by: Elementos on May 18, 2014, 12:21:25 AM
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/88424Minor Inconveniences.jpg)

Hooray, it's finally here, the test of wits, skill, but mostly luck as your teams of LWs battle it out.

The Rules are as follows:

-3 minute matches, draws will be decided by Judges - (General RW criteria)

So the General idea is that you have two bots as a team, both which will fight individually and once I have posted the bracket, You have to PM me which bot you want to go first, dependent on the team you are drawn against. So technically, you have to use one bot at a time, but in your second bout you don't get the choice, the other bot will fight. (Then then choosing process will continue.) This will occur on a normal deathmatch-style bracket, until there is only one winner.

It's sounds weird at first but I think this could be interesting and could come down to a good choice by a competitor. (Obviously you could try to pick a bot that the opponent wouldn't be expecting so you get an advantage or something like that)

At the end in the final the last two teams should just have a brawl, 2 Vs 2, and no time limit.

Brackets:


Splashes:

So I've started recording the bouts, (as expected these will be produced at the same rate as people send me their choices) Deadline for choices is 3 days. If not sent by then, I will decide for you.

Qwerty and Massimo, I will be needing your decisions by the end of today, or your bots will be randomised. Thank you.

It's not the smartzone placement, it's the .py. It's touchy and it's the same AI line I used for all the flippers in the tournament.  Sometimes the flipper doesn't fire, sometimes it fires when it shouldn't. But the fact of the matter is that Click' Flipper.py is the best flipper AI fie we have.

Post by: MassimoV on June 27, 2014, 07:21:46 PM
It's pretty sad that people can't finish their tourneys. I ran BB9, which is a 100+ bot tourney, during my finals, the end of my tennis season, state, and a 4-5 day vacation. Being busy can make things hard but not impossible. I know some people try to make these a little more artistic than I have done with my tournaments. But what it comes down to, is you can make everything look really nice, but if you can't run the tournament through the finals, none of it really matters.

Okay, Round 2 is uploading, when it is up I will edit this post. As I'm on a tighter schedule, editing has become a tad more limited. If the winners could then PM me their choices for the semis, then I can get the rest of the tournament finished and then I'll start doing grudge matches/fantasy matches.

Edit: Video is up.
