Unlimited entries is nice tho, will probably knock up some stuff for this.

[Mecha]

I love me some stock lw.
Consider me entered.

[Hi5er]

Lightweight?

Should be interesting! Been a while!

Still in.

[Silverfish]

I am so in. :)
When this goes to signups, expect 12+ entries from me.

pretty sure by unlimited enteries he means any number of people can enter, not send as many bots as you like

Building Rules:
-Lightweight Stock 1.4
-No BFE/AAM/Hax Mode/etc.
-Multibots, bots that have their drive designed to break off, and SnS bots are banned
-All robots must show controlled movement via at least two powered wheels
-AI parts/140cm extender/blue snapper/etc. are allowed
-After sending your robot to me, you may update it only once, and only before signups close.
Tournament Format:
-Unlimited entries (1 bot per person)
-Arena will be the BBEANS v2 arena with hazards on
-Before each match, robots will be seeded based on how well they do in a pre-match fight. This fight will cycle every round between destroying a SFTW-esque bot, taking on two beetleweights, and surviving against a heavyweight. Here are the robots being used:

All of these kinds of matches will be in the combat arena with hazards off.
-After robots have been seeded, the ones with the lowest rankings will enter the arena first. As each robot is eliminated from a round, the robot with the next lowest seed will enter the battle.
-Robots get 3 lives for the span of the tournament
-I probably didn't do a great job of explaining how rounds will work after robots are seeded, so here is an example round:

-A robot can earn an extra life by destroying (read: delivering the final hit to the chassis of) 3 other robots in a single round.
Other:
-I can AI, but it is preferred that you do it yourself. That being said, no cheaty AIs. If I AI your bot, you may not complain unless I have made an obvious mistake.
-You will have two weeks to enter.
-I will be entering with this:

-Thrackerzod gets a reserved entry if he wishes
-Winner will be allowed two entries in my next tournament

[Lightning S.]

badger's entry accepted and ai'd

[Lightning S.]

redace and silverfish accepted and ai'd

[Hi5er]

Currently in the Botlab, but just expressing my interest 

[Lightning S.]

wen's entry accepted and ai'd

[Thrackerzod]

oh man just had a good idea

will def enter if i actually get around to building it

[Lightning S.]

entries from thrackerzod and hi5er are ai'd and ready to go
thrackerzod's bot has a tiny problem that i've already notified him about. it won't affect its performance against other competitors, so i'm leaving it up to him whether or not he wants to send me an updated version.

also less than a week to sign up so get on that

[Lightning S.]

thrackerzod sent me a fix for his robot so that won't be a problem anymore.
3 days to sign up though. i might extend the deadline, but tbh i'd like to get this mostly done before school starts

[Lightning S.]

geice and mr.as accepted and ai'd

[Lightning S.]

090901 is good to go
there's a solid ten entries now, so the deadline definitely won't be extended
