Then modify those replicas to weaker version by nerfing their components. We can wait a bit, at least it's better than scrapping the whole tournament.
I don't want to do that. It's too hard. Also, If this gets locked, I'll keep all the entries to rebuild this tournament later on. I'm not happy with this, and I want it to change.

Or you can just get rid entirely of the replicas.

I had a look at them and it's obvious they're going to get owned by any of the non-fail builder bots.

Too late Nary, I talked to Joe and I'll cancel this. I rushed with the rules, And they're not strict enough. I don't want to host a tournament if I'm not happy with it.

As long as you actually do this tournament later (and no Gigafrost-ing, huh ?) I'm fine with it.

I want to see how my sloppy sawbot does :gawe:

And holy crap, i should have named it sloppy sawbot. Maybe i'll just send a renewed version since I have plenty of time.

Also Nary, I will modify the rules that only chassis wedges are allowed, unless your bot is a flipper.

Why does this tourney need to be cancelled again? In ways in which I understand? :P

RPJK, don't get stressed. And I don't think JB would let you. And if you did I would drop out anyway =P

That's not the point, though- it's the fact that they worked to build their entries, and then this was cancelled until next year when it was apparently nearing completion.

I built 10+ plus bots and waited ages for this to be called off. And because the new rule will be chassis wedges only I won't be able to use any of them. Thanks, Jonzu.

Oh crap... we got a problem here.

Why I did rush with my tournament? I got Alphasim RW AI Pack 2 work, and the bots are so awesome. The problem is that Custom components are forbidden, and I need to modify those Replicas to crappier versions...

This is my biggest mistake I've ever done, and I don't want to continue this unless I'll be allowed to use Custom components in Replicas, not in own entries.


And yes, I can take the tournament ban if Joe wants it.

you're stopping the tourney because you're too lazy to nerf a few replicas?

no. Sorry, I waited TOO FRIGGIN LONG for this.
