Title: ROBO RASSLIN' SIGNUPS CLOSED (expired)
Post by: Enigm@ on December 31, 2012, 03:54:41 PM
That's right folks, your old pal enigma's gonna start a tournament because I've basically been dead weight on the forum lately and haven't contributed anything so might as well start a tourney cuz I'm well within the ability of doing such.

Presenting, ROBO RASSLIN':
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/64750cooltext870401933.png)

Basic Rules:

- Stock Heavyweight
- Matches will be 3 minutes long, in Starcore's combat arena which I will reskin, or if I don't have time for that will ask someone to reskin it, but I have no life at the moment so I prolly will reskin it.
- This will be a tag-team tournament, as in each person that signs up will make TWO stock heavyweights
- No multibots obviously.
- This tournament will be a 1 round single elimination tournament
- ALL glitches are allowed with the exception of BFE and AAM and haxmode.
- Tournament shall be unrealistic, ALL AI parts are allowed and the 140 cm extender IS allowed; but parts such as the cannon and magnet and whatnot are NOT allowed.
- 16 entrants are allowed to sign up.
- I will NOT be entering
- In the case of a havok, the bot that I deem started the havok will receive a strike, after 3 strikes, you're out and the other person wins by default.
- I can AI for you, but please AI your own bots so this can go by faster.

Now here's what makes this different from most tournaments..

Other/Special Rules:

- Each person that signs up will be PM'd what bot type they will make. (e.g., person X is assigned to make two juggalers, and person Y is assigned to make 2 popups.) BUT keep in mind I will most likely not be giving you just a popup to make, I might specify it such as person Z is assigned to make 2 side popups with castor armor and no other type for armor or something similar.
- Team themes are encouraged! let's be creative guys.
- Any loopholes you find will be nullified and I'll tell you to make something else.
- bots CANNOT weigh less than 792 kgs and CANNOT weigh more than 800 kgs.

I think I've got everything, I'm open and more than willing to tweak and or change things if that's the general opinion from the community, and I WILL be committed to this, so let's have fun guys.
 

Signups: (note that this is first come first serve, when i get everyone that signs up i will pm them what bot type they will make)

1. MrAwesumsauce
2. conraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
3. Thrackerzod
4. 0909090909090909090909090909091
5. Ty4er
6. sparkles
7. boombabyboom
8. lightening s.
9. THE GIRLY NARYAR
10. mystic2000
11. main menu
12. chaosmancer
13. sage
14. virus bomb
15. ribbs
16. newdale

signup chart thingie:
green means the bots have been accepted, ai'd and ready to go.
orange means the bots have been received.
red means the bots have something wrong with them that needs to be fixed by the builder.

backup roster:

1.
2.
3.

way to ruin 1/4 of the fun of the tournament

Nah, your rules look fine. Gonna move this to signups asap when people show enough interest.

Allowing hax mode is just stupid, whoever gets HS will easily win tbh.

BUT keep in mind I will most likely not be giving you just a popup to make, I might specify it such as person Z is assigned to make 2 side popups with castor armor and no other type for armor or something similar.

inb4 crazy stuff like HS/FS/Hammer

lol do you not think I know that? Obviously I'll put down some limitations for the person that gets HS.

can i give fs/hs/hammer/rammer as a bot type still?
Title: Re: ROBO RASSLIN' Discussion

I'd attempt this.  Seems a good way to practice building bot types.

I'll participate as well

I certainly like the concept.  Not sure if I would enter because I am terrible at stock.  But, I think Sage should be informed about this tourney.  As well as Roboshr3k.

This will go to signups soon. Check your rules again and see if nothing is missing, 'nigma.
Title: Re: ROBO RASSLIN' Discussion
Post by: Chaosmancer on January 06, 2013, 01:01:22 PM
I'll probably enter, but I may (read: will more than likely) need to ask what constitutes as the bot type I get assigned... except in obvious cases.
Title: Re: ROBO RASSLIN' Discussion
Post by: Enigm@ on January 06, 2013, 02:29:09 PM
i've looked over my rules and i think everything's good shape, so i'll get a list of 1-16 started down at the bottom so you can move this to tournies nary

I like no Hax Mode better for this. I'll enter right now, but will probably give my spot to someone else if signups become full, since I don't know if I'll have time to build two HWs in whatever time period we get. You can put my name in orange at the bottom or something.

Quick question though, I presume this is an AI Tournament, do we have to AI the robots ourselves?

And there weren't any hybrids specified in the original ruleset. I was just under the impression that we would just be given a single bottype to make. As happy as I am with my draw.

but it's good in a way cuz it forces people to think differently and adapt instead of "what should I build ? popup or HS ?"

It just occurred to me that you might need reserves for this tournament.  Signups with bots built vs signups with promises to build are a stark contrast.

Just pointing out that the community is notorious for signing up for "i will participate" tourneys and then dropping the ball.

You should consider taking in appx 5 reserves to fill spots for people that drop this project and run away.  Just a suggestion.

Okay, questions.

First, I know you said this somewhere, but I'm having a serious case of idiot and can't find it.  When do we have to have the bots in by?

Second, if I was assigned two bots with the same parameters, can I just enter one bot twice?
