Your pretty much right dream cast but as plerco said there are wedges,flame throwers,crushers,rammers,lifters.I do think axes and flippers will be the most common but there will be people who are willing to step out there comfort zoneSo this is flipper vs. axe?Prank: Call it Off-TV British HW Battles.
Don't forget grabbers and crushers, I guess.
Anyways, I'm up for this tournament! It seems like a good idea, although I feel like there might be a few wedge stalemates.
Do shufflers get the same weight bonus as walkers?Yee
Why not HW?Why not CW?
I'm glad this is a thing, I might throw Richter into this as I'm no longer using it for RG.When I get at least 16 people to say they would be willing to enter then the mods should move it to signups. BW will also be taken in at the same time so if you are entering a BW then send it at the same time
When will sign ups start my good man?
Does the BW side event have the same rules? Like no spinners?Yep all the same rules

CW iz ded (also i still wanna know how my HW fares in yugi's nonexistant tournament)Why not HW?Why not CW?
If iz dead then surly me doing CW is a sensible option? also I know you want to test your bots but remember that its not just for one person to test bots, maybe ask for a battle on the challenge boardCW iz ded (also i still wanna know how my HW fares in yugi's nonexistant tournament)Why not HW?Why not CW?
I think I have to agree that I’d prefer HW, but that’s fine.nope no active weapon rule
I’m assuming there’s no active weapon rule?
is this balance patch or not?Which is more commonly used?
No balance patch.is this balance patch or not?Which is more commonly used?
Well then we are going with the patch, sorry for anyone who is working off it without the patch. I'm including the patch just because it's easier for me to work off of. FOR ANYONE WHO HAS CONSIDERED ENTERING BUT HAD NOT SAID SO ON THE POLL PLEASE DO IT SHOULD HELP GET IT INTO SIGNUPS QUICKERNo balance patch.is this balance patch or not?Which is more commonly used?
If you downloaded lra2's "complete" DSL IRL game then you already have the patch installed
So what’s the rule on cluster knockouts? Is it 55% of weight needs to be knocked out or something else?If one is dead then the other is dead. This dos'nt apply to mini bots occumponying a much heavier bot
I'm pretty sure the poll system is no longer required to move to sign-ups. If it isn't, then just tell gulden or hoppin that it's ready for sign-ups and I'm sure they won't mind.Ah ok, well I still want to wait until I have the correct amount just to be on the safe side. Just so that everyone knows what I'm doing with signups you can send me 2 bots one will be entered automatically but the second will have to wait to make sure no one else decides to jump on. If we have more second bots than we need then I will chose which one I get rid of or someone can volunteer to drop there second bot.beetle weights don't need to be sent at the same time as CW's but there are limited spaces so you will need to make sure you send it quick

AWAITING UPDATE
BTW sorry If I make any noob mistakes during the process.
I might also be doing a world championship episode so let me know what you think of that,it will only be a few battles long
The name of this tournament would be better suited to a 'spinners vs the world' gimmick, rather than a gimmick with no spinners. It would seem weird to have a bot type in the name and that's the one bot type that isn't allowed.Damm wish I would have thought of that,maybe I can fit that in a special episode If I get enough entry's
And kids, that's what hapees when you open a CW no spinner tournamentWhile I admit that I could have made a more appealing tournament I think you could have more constructive criticism instead of just blatantly saying it was a failure maybe give tips and helpful advice that can make sure I don't repeat the same mistake ever that or make your comment sound more professional and useful.

And kids, that's what hapees when you open a CW no spinner tournamentI heard literally no one complain about GTM live.
It was HW iircAnd kids, that's what hapees when you open a CW no spinner tournamentI heard literally no one complain about GTM live.
He's probably on about the no spinner side of the tournament, not the CW part. ;)It was HW iircAnd kids, that's what hapees when you open a CW no spinner tournamentI heard literally no one complain about GTM live.
Shouldn't this thread be called Signups? :dumb)Good call

Ok we may have an issue. The software I was using (Fraps) is only recording for 30 seconds so I may need to find a new Video recorder. Suggestions are appreciated. Sorry for not taking this into account when I was making thisOBS
Sent you a second entry, did you recieve it?Yeah everybody who sent me a second entry has been received i'm just going to as I said wait until I have all the entries.Just over half way there guys and only 13 days to go so get those entries in
Also forgot that there were BW's
Hey guys, unfortunately I may have to give up on this tournament :( this is primarily due to the fact that I've been very stressed about mock exams and there's no real time for me to do this along aside all the work I have. Thank you for everyone who has entered into this I appreciate the support so got so thanks again :) Sorry again for this I just didn't anticipate for the work load I was going to get
