Not Just Another DSL 2.2 IRL Tournament [Inactive]

[yugitom]

You'd probably be better understood if you said Mortis, instead of Chimera. Also, that's a pretty big lists of bot types that are allowed. Isn't it just easier to name the bot types which aren't?

If you just want to host a tournament in which people enter unique designs or designs which aren't seen too often, then you are allowed to state, in the rules, that you can reject any entry you like, if you think it's too generic or is pushing the IRL boundary, and ask people to not be pedantic dickheads by trying to argue that their Last Rites rip-off is unique because subjectivity or something. You don't have to go through the process of white-listing and detailing every single bot type that you'd allow just so unfair ones don't slip through the cracks.

Front-hinged flippers are legal, eh?

Well, I know what I'm building, then. Thanks for clearing all that up for me

Is a bot like a blade like Ghost Raptor Allowed?

If it's attached via servo and is able to change angle (like Ghost Raptor), then yes.

What about Echo? It's attached via a hinge

Yes, the question is, does it havok a lot? Because I don't wanna have to deal with a million havoks, there'll be enough of those in this tournament anyways.

I 'unno, you'll have to ask Kurt. He used it in his tournament

tbh if you are looking for more oddball bots or w/e you shouldn't allow shell spinners made using the DSL discs since they literally all look the same

honestly haven't built many shell spinners myself so thanks for the info, I've added it to the rules.

Yeah, I mean there's not really much you can do with the shell spinner parts to make 'em look unique, it's mostly just "flat sides or angled sides" and then maybe a little decoration on top. I hope DSC puts coloured spinner shells in one of his IRL packs.

Well as weight-inefficient as it would be, you could use extenders, I think that would work relatively well.

do i see irl hybrids allowed ?

fyi, an hybrid is a bot that has two very differently working weapons, aka, two bot types in the same bot.

Why not make it be really not just another DSL irl tournament qnd make it Ironforge standard or Retooled?

[Probably Rob]

Because then he wouldn't be doing what he wants to do

[Avalanche]

QFT.
