- All extras except Judge's gavel, Beta's battery and hammer, and Vertigo's motor.That's a bad idea.
Are we allowed multibots?
is that because i used them on Expeller helloface that you want them banned ?....maybe

Plutone is fine, helloface is just nitpicking.No, it's really not. It's ugly and way too big to be IRL.
bots reddy and me a judg pl0x
Interesting, I'll probably join.too bad this isn't middleweights. Could've entered Mantis and Stag Beetle

Okay. It's simple. I'm done with Blades Of Glory. I'm assuming by the lack of interest in the Awards thread that no-one actually wants to bother with grudge matches etc, and the deadline has arrived.
But, I digress.
So here is my next tourney Idea:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/88424Minor Inconveniences.jpg)
The Rules are as follows:
-DSL 2.1
-LW Competition
-IRL building rules. (Any Standard bots will be declined.) - Obviously this means that upgrades to your bots are allowed as long as I get them by the deadline. (Deadline will be three weeks after sign-ups launch, and may have an extension depending on the interest level.)
-16 Entrants (With Two bots Per Entrant, More info Later)
-I shall be entering with Mercury and Plutone:
-3 minute matches, draws will be decided by Judges - (General RW criteria) *Note: Any volunteers to help are welcome.
-No Clusterbots
-No Walkers/Shufflers/Any-other-non-wheel-system-that-some-of-you-guys-can-devise
So the General idea is that you enter 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. As I am entering myself, I shall randomly generate my bots instead of choosing so I don't get an unfair advantage - not that I really truly want to win my own tournament anyway but hey, I'm competing for the fun. 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)
I'm thinking that at the end in the final the last two teams should just have a brawl, 2 Vs 2, and no time limit.
Arena:
-DSL Tournament Arena (Reskinned)
Components:
-No AI parts
-No Custom parts
-Only specific cheatbot2 parts are allowed:
- 1 Judge burst
- Matilda teeth
- Buster Wheel
- Ronin Wheel
- Yellow Buzzard Wheel
- Growler Wheel
- Slap Happy Wheel
- M.O.E. Wheel
Illegals:
- No M.O.E Motors
- None of Bob's extras
- No Judge's gavel, Beta's battery and hammer, or Vertigo's motor.
- Tit sheets are allowed, as long as they aren't attached to the baseplate.
- No Beta armour
Other Stuff:
-I can AI your bots if you don't know how to, (Although I do recommend learning how) and will be accepting custom bindings as long as they aren't OP. (Ridiculous speed etc.)
-Nobody can be entered until their bots are received and accepted.
-No BFE, AAM, Thyrus Glitch, ZeroG, Text Editing or any other out-of-game modification. (This doesn't include skinning)
-No in-game glitches, such as Stacking, eFFe Glitching, Axle Loading, Snapper Loading etc.
-No Hax Mode.
-If one of your bots havoks, they will be a restart, but two in a row will result in Disqualification of your bots and automatic victory for the other team.
I think that's all. So what do you guys think? Have any questions/queries/suggestions? Tell me below.
Yeah it seems okay most of the time, But I think it's when it loses it's wheel guards that it begins to havok. (I'm guessing because of the low weight.)
What, so i cant enter because im bad at building?
Consider yourself fairly lucky, there was a time when most tournaments imposed minimum standards. Think of it as encouragement to improve :)Ha! Like im going to improve in a terrible building style just because of someones unmentioned rules.
What, so i cant enter because im bad at building?from what i've seen, you only enter bad joke bots into tournaments which is a waste of entry spaces. as craig said, you're lucky all tournaments dont have a minimum standard rule.
Playzooki, if you don't like it, why enter? Just asking out of curiosity.for the lolz
if you're entering 'for the lolz', surely that means they're joke bots?Playzooki, if you don't like it, why enter? Just asking out of curiosity.for the lolz
and most of my robots arent jokes. they are just bad :dumb)
no they are not jokebots.if you're entering 'for the lolz', surely that means they're joke bots?Playzooki, if you don't like it, why enter? Just asking out of curiosity.for the lolz

git gud or go home
End of this week. But I may extend depending on the interest level at the time.
Both Accepted. Well, If I can figure out how to get the whacker bot working XDidek if it can thwack. ill have to test it more lol :V

an idea would be to have a smartzone in front of the robot that's wired to moving backwards. :)
Okay, just a heads up, sign-ups ends at midnight today (UK Time) - So get those entries in guys! (I will extend this by another week if not all spots are filled)Omni, with a smartzone wired to driving backwards. If that doesbt work, pusher. Looks > performance
Also, Senstro gimme yo' updates.
Oh yeah, and Playzooki, so how do you want be to AI this bot then? Because At the moment I don't know what to do with it and I may have to ask for another entry.
El Chickenado, I'm going to look at your entries soon.
Looks > performance
Playzooki Updated. ACCEPTED AND AI'D F*** YEAHyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/88424Minor Inconveniences.jpg)by volunteers to help does that mean like judge and would i be allowed to help judge any match my robots are not part of?
draws will be decided by Judges - (General RW criteria) *Note: Any volunteers to help are welcome.
Uhhh I sent a PM with my bots 2 hours before RFS posted so were they not allowed or something?
As he doesn't have to send AI, asking to wait for AI isn't spot reserving. If he doesn't send you the AI by the time you start filming, then you AI it yourself, generally. The bots themselves are the deciding factor, rather than the bindings as these aren't necessary for entry. Spot reserving is only when somebody clearly says SAVE MY BOTS A SPOT rather than 'here's the bots I'll send AI later' as I expect 09 did.Yeah, I know, I get that, but he specifically told me not to AI the bots.
This is just the general way to go around this kinda situation.
Yeah, I know, I get that, but he specifically told me not to AI the bots.That's because robot from the west needs kheper.py and I didn't think you have ever used it/have it.
You still could've told me so I could find it etcYeah, I know, I get that, but he specifically told me not to AI the bots.That's because robot from the west needs kheper.py and I didn't think you have ever used it/have it.

Maybe as a grudge match after the tourney, maybe your bots and my Hot Rod could have a free for all. A demolition derby so to speak?
