One I know that might easily win this is 123's flail SnS. Unless that is havok-prone, but it doesn't havok when I test with it. D:

It wouldn't be legal though since the [bullsh**] rules state that a bot cannot have more than six axles for flails.

the way I see it ... we are building a community NarAI team(s) but they will fight each other and be filmed

Hmm... flamethrowers huh ? Yes, i think i can accept them, since they generally make for more exciting fights.

Oh, and do you guys think skirt hinge, metal hinge, and axle wedges should be banned as well ?

Nah, too hard to define what a 'wedge' is.  For example, Final Destiny/Biohazard-style skirts--wedge?  Or not a wedge?  What about if they're only on the sides?


You can't just say skirt hinge, metal hinge, and axle wedges are banned--you'll have to make specific criteria for what constitutes a wedge.

Instead of holding a pointless tourney, in which basically anyone with a brain will enter an SnS with FBS.py, why not just ask for two teams for Nar v2.3? After all, how is it even a real and competitive tourney if a) there can only be extremely little variation in bot types at absolute most, b) you basically will end up telling us how to mold the bots to fit what you deem to be acceptable, or c) the whole point isn't to even have a tourney but just as a ploy to make us build for you?

You would save a heck of a lot of time and effort on everybody's part if you just said "hey guys, I need a team of rammers, and SnS with static weapons. Build and send your bots!"

And if you're going to host a tourney, at least allow for some variation. It's much more fun for everybody if you have no idea what the competition is going to be like.
