Title: Red vs Blue Discussion
Post by: ianh05 on May 17, 2013, 01:04:15 AM
It looks like my next tournament will be Red vs Blue! This tournament will have 2 large teams made up of up to 20 people on each depending on how many people enter, if I get 40 entries than we will see every robot weight class for both stock and DSL.

I will list available robots like this (just an example):

Stock:

AW AW
BW BW
LW LW
MW MW
HW HW

DSL:

AW AW
BW BW
LW LW
MW MW
HW HW

Normal text colour will mean that the robot type is still available and green will mean that the robot type is taken.

The format will be as follows:

*I will randomise teams with - http://www.random.org/lists/ (http://www.random.org/lists/) the first of each robot type will go on team red and second on team blue.
*Every robot gets one match against the same weight class and mod type (stock or DSL) from the opposing team.
*Every match will consist of 5 rounds.
*Every round win will earn you a point for your team.
*The team with the most points at the end will be declared the winner.

Rules:

Stock and DSL rules:

*Multi-bots (2 clusters maximum per multi-bot) are allowed.
*No Nasty Pickles, Bumble bots, Trinity Flyers, Crawlers or any other cheap robots.
*Robots must show controlled movement and have at least 2 wheel drive.
*Standard in-game glitches (such as axle loading) allowed (STOCK ONLY).
*No AAM, Hax mode, Trov glitch, BFE or any other nonsense.
*No new uberstack glitch.
*No Cheatbot2.
*AI parts are allowed but...
*No 140cm extender.
*No trying to find loopholes, you should know what "Stock" means.

DSL specific rules:

*Normal DSL realistic rules apply.
*DSL 2.1 only.
*Glitches are allowed, so long as the realism is kept intact.

Match/general rules:

*All weight classes including Fleaweight, Featherweight, Cruiserweight, SHW and UHW.
*5 rounds per match, 1 point per round.
*I will restart matches due to match-altering glitches only.
*Robots that cause 3 glitches will be eliminated and given the loss.
*All matches will take place in the (possibly re-skinned) combat arena.
*All matches will be 2-3 minutes in length based on weight class (FLW - BW = 2 mins, all others will be 3 mins).
*I can AI all basic bots, anything odd will require you to AI it yourself.
*40 entries max.

Fixed, I'm not up to speed on DSL so if I missed anything else let me know.

i believe you are getting me wrong. most glitches are used as commonplace in modern dsl. stacking and "uberglitching" is not really allowed though for obvious reasons.

OK, fixed again.

UHW will be 1200kg-3000kg only Venko  :dumb) .
But the interesting UHW stuff slightly begin to start from 3000kg...   :(
Also, the complicated building is what makes the load time that much, not the weight used, a 5000kg generic basic rammer will load faster than a 3000kg snapper setup HS, for example.

What? But I thought, that one member can take only one weight class per game.

Me too in stock, I would prefer the heaviest, but I'm really OK with ANY.
Also, IMO this tournament is a good idea, since it's about members uniting and stuff.

Might want to enter the Stock Heavyweight with Snake Eyes, to see how it goes.

Also, is Skirt-Hinge Armor (Narmor) allowed?
