I'm also after some good DSL builders to help me with team robo zone (the house robots)


i need 2 beetleweights, a heavyweight and a well-defended box :P the other(s) isn't known yet. if you check out the videos from the first series you will get an idea about what i am after.. just DSL versions.


I could make the box :P Plus would it be reasonable to make it run any ay up to stop it from being immobile?

This tournament is on hold due to the finals arena being lost as a result of Joe's computer problems and the box still being unfinished  :frown: hopefully it will be ready someday in the not to distant future.

The arena request can be found here.

I'm still able to work on it if everyone else is busy but we definitely need to figure out who is working on what so that it gets done.

I haven't heard from Madiaba yet..


my plan was to construct the GMF first and give it to you to add your python (I didnt know how to keep caged bots stationary) but I lost my progress now so thats me out..


Serge said he would do it also.. again I haven't heard from him yet regarding process..


so its really just finding out what those 2 have done on it ^^^

almost 1 month since any word on well...anything. lack of interest has dropped this discussion to page 2.

I'm going to have to cancel this, it's a shame that people don't want to see a different style of tournament then the usual elimination style 1v1 or 2v2 tournaments. I have been waiting the past month for someone to show interest but it just hasn't happened.

the effort i put into the house robots (Team robo zone) and general planning has left me unable to find the interest to play the game now. Not sure if/when I will return but good luck with everything.

Are you really going to or must we convince you by numerous "NONO IANH YOU ARE LIKED HERE PLEASE DON'T CANCEL ROBO ZONE 2 IT'S AWESOME"-style posts ?

I'm really going to have to as I have lost interest in the game, I was really looking forward to see the robo zone arena in action for over a year, maybe 2 years and now it looks like i won't get to see it. However I would love to see the work on the arena continue because it could make for a really cool arena for different tournaments that have 4 robots active at the same time.

bingo, we have a winner. I also play SC2 on occasions, sometimes on the NA/LA region.

No need to stop working on the arena, I may return one day or maybe the community would like it to be released for use in other tournaments or just to play around with against AI.

Well that sucks. You can't really expect too much chatter in a discussion thread once the rules are ironed out though. If you had given it the green tick it might've gotten voted through earlier though. (Then I would have lost though D:)
I built that big robot on that TV show that time
