OK, list updated. 2 bots to be AI'd, 2 to be fixed and 2 more entrants needed.

And c'mon guys, I only need two more entries. Nary said he would build (well we all know he's too lazy) and a few of you reserved bots but never did anything. I'm sure many are eager for this to get started.

I've made a cool little intro video with 10 of the bots and some Oblivion music.
Can anyone get Hard Bot to listen to me?

Well I can't show it because signups aren't closed.

On the bright side you have the right number of valid robots for a 12 bot bracket.
I'm surprised that more people haven't built for this aswell. It's not like it's a bad idea. It's probably because all the obvious bots have been used already.

Soooooo. What is wrong with Hard Bot's entry anyways?

If he is not responding, perhaps someone could fix his bot for him instead?  I think he would prefer that vs getting booted out altogether. 

Personally, I think many are too lazy to figure out which bots are listed in the DSL folder to find out the components they have available.  That step is rather time consuming.  Don't know how to fix that though...

Hope you get more entries.

His bot is unrealistic (badly) and uses illegal parts.
I can't really have more than 2 byes.

If you extended the deadline a bit you'd have time to put up a list of replicas with useable parts to save people from looking at them all to find good ones. I'd be willing to help on looking through them all.

The problem is no-one seems at all interested.

Which is a shame, it's not like it's a bad idea with an incompetent host or anything.
But I think if you listed most/all the good reps to use and pmbomb'd anyone who has shown interest/reserved a bot you might be able to get some more bots in it.

Well, I you could have a go at that then I may extend the deadline if more people say they will build.

I'll see what I can come up with for this and can I have a reserve on techno destructo?

SKBT reserved a bot, 2 hours later xanoz sends me a bot based off Techno Destructo. So SKBT has to send his bot within the 24 hours of xanoz gets his place.

Or I could just let them bot use the same bot...
