I have my suspicions that I'm the SFTW, but other than that this looks like some really neat stuff if a bit unvariative.

Post by: Avalanche on February 21, 2014, 08:08:30 AM
TBD, Your bot admittedly is a bit of a SFTW, But standard sns could get flipped about. Any non invertible bots are ruined.

Awww... KOS's face spinner looks like a baby version of my first showcased bot :P
Looks like this tournament's gonna be fun. Shame I couldn't cook up an entry in time :(

Let's see who we got for our contestants:

Micro Menace: Not bad, The razors may not be as effective because they are facing in wrong direction.

Ravager 2: I think the exposed motors may spell trouble, other than that it may do well.

Bloody Tears and Recipes: That reminds me of an old bot I built. It could go far in this competition.

Astraphobia 2: Another SNS, it'll do well if it spins fast enough. It looks pretty good.

Blatant Klone: Not too bad, It may hold up well if it had good weapon motors.

Syntek Shredder: The chassis is going to be a huge target.

Carbon Copy: Since the spikes are not angled, it may not protect the chassis well enough. But it does look good and may do well.

SpinForwardLeftRight 2: A hybrid eh? Interesting since it's the only one in this tournament. It may do well here.

ifyoucantbeatemjoinem: What an unnecessary amount of drive.

Mini Mine Sweeper: Not bad, but without a plow protecting the motors, I can't say it will keep it's offensive edge.

Meltdown: Maybe the caster I put on it is useless.

Thumpernail 3.75: Very Zodiak-esque.

Sakura Wind III: Interesting idea. Let's see how well it'll do.

Fragment Reborn: Is it a true popup? It looks very threating and may do well.

LW-SNS: Kinda a generic name, but could be very effective design here.

The Hodge: I think you know what's coming.

These bots look pretty good. This may be a good tournament. Good luck!

Just to jump in here, we must remember that Mechadino has no obligation to test for hours upon end to find the perfect AI combination, if the bot wasn't AIed by it's owner, then MD only has to make sure it works in an expected fashion, which it did.

Post by: cephalopod on April 25, 2014, 05:11:47 AM
Well, you've had 3 months already, so what I will grant now is a technical extension, as you have made progress closely before the deadline.
This technical extension means 2 things, however:
1) You must post 6 videos a week, minimum, until it's finished.
2) You will not gain a host score point for hosting this tournament at the end of it, and if you don't complete the tournament in the extension, you will lose one, as you would by not meeting the deadline (which would actually put you on -1).
Title: Re: Robo Revolution Splash, Brackets, Videos, and Disscusion.
Post by: cephalopod on April 29, 2014, 09:27:36 AM
Just a quick reminder, this tournament will be moved to completed unless 6 videos are posted in the next 3 and a half days.

Great job hosting this Mechadino. Shame the technical extension expired before you posted the finals.

If he was hosting it well he wouldn't have needed the extension in the first place, surely.
