Is 4 spinning irons and 4 static spike strips OK for this? (it's not awesome, it still loses to EMERGENCY like any good noob bot)

I tried it, I think you're right. I got another iron on too.

Too much weapons... I'll accept if you remove 2 Spike Strips or 2 Iron Spikes.

Halved the number of razors, and removed the iron protecting the weapon motor.

Now it can't even beat Acrid  :laughing

Hah, the caster armour, right? I'll remove it if you want, although I did my best to keep it to a minimum.

And I guess it's because I've become like Nary with IRL ever since BB2.

Ur nawt taking mah wedges.

It still gets taken out by underweaponed pokers and substandard rammers, which are the bots VS are normally good against, so they don't really provide an advantage against anything other than other wedges (I'll brag at this point and say that it can outwedge R4 and Seism 13, despite its lower weight category).
But I have a bot without the caster armour if you REALLY want.

How many irons do you want me to remove?
Title: Re: Robot Wars Virtual (RW Reason 8) - Signups *
Post by: NFX on August 20, 2011, 03:17:05 PM
Rammers only have one spike, mostly, to transfer all their energy to one point and cause maximum penetration. You could get away with two, maybe three at a stretch on one face.
Title: Re: Robot Wars Virtual (RW Reason 8) - Signups *
Post by: powerrave on August 20, 2011, 04:04:41 PM
Yeah, You don't see robots irl with about 8 or more spikes pasted together.

And I need help with one bot, Wheely Big Cheese. I need someone to Stack 2 DDT's into it. It's Unrealistic, but Replicas are allowed to be at this point, unless It's unrealistic from Outside... But so, I need someone to stack 2 DDT's as I said.


And No, I can't Stack myself. Too stupid to learn Hax mode D: (Don't even try to bother)

Should I remind you that this is not the chatterbox, and that we are supposed to keep ON TOPIC ? If you are going to post a thing in the OOC thread, do as you wish, but DO NOT spam a tournament thread with your intention to do it, and Jonzu doesn't needs 5 more off topic posts in his thread. Yeah you posted two but as a result, four were totally off topic.

Anyways, my bot will come soon. I have a sawbot design in my head already, now just to see if I have enough weight to pull it off...

By the way jonzu, what do you mean by "realistic" ? Is it strictly IRL realistic, or can you still spam weapons on HS ?

IIRC Jonzy wants this strictly IRL, spamming is forbidden.

No it wasn't. A flipper with a ram plate is weapon spam? Me thinks you mean Badnik.

Just deal, alright? This isn't a tournament like BBEANS where you'd go "ASDGHJKLWYHENDDN I MUST WIN THIS"...just something that's mostly for fun. I don't think I've ever heard of a Stock realistic tourney where Popups are allowed anyways.

Preytor, right now Jonzu can either be unfair to you and have you remake a bot, or be unfair to 21 other people and have them remake 21 bots...I don't think you going on about how all rules stated after thread creation are obsolete is going to change his mind. Maybe if you had inquired about the specific realism earlier in signups, yes, but it's a bit late now after 21 people have all submitted bots under IRL realistic.

That's the thing, though, THE RULES ARE NOT CHANGING. There are no rules being added or removed, all that is happening is clarification, which is what people are wanting, and what Jonzu has given. As I've said, you can easily enter another bot into this tournament, there's plenty of spaces left and nothing preventing you from doing so. As far as I can work out, the issue has been resolves and your robot has - unfortunately - been deemed unrealistic and ineligible for entry. I'm sorry, but that's just how I'm calling it.

That's the thing, though, THE RULES ARE NOT CHANGING. There are no rules being added or removed, all that is happening is clarification, which is what people are wanting, and what Jonzu has given. As I've said, you can easily enter another bot into this tournament, there's plenty of spaces left and nothing preventing you from doing so. As far as I can work out, the issue has been resolves and your robot has - unfortunately - been deemed unrealistic and ineligible for entry. I'm sorry, but that's just how I'm calling it.

You have stated the perfect point.

Preytor, please listen to him.

Okay, firstly, you could have shot him a PM instead, it would have been less likely to be buried under everything. And second of all - in my view, at least - there's no help necessary, the matter has already been concluded. As I've said in my previous post, none of the rules are being altered, Jonzu is simply clarifying them for the benefit of everybody, which isn't against the Signups rules, as far as I can work out. I think we'd all be much more appreciative if you simpe accepted the decision of the tournament host and changed your bot so it does comply with the rules. It'd be a shame to see anyone miss a tournament in this kind of style.

Okay, imagine of signups only had the first post and Joey approving them. There would be no clarification, there would only be the rules that you could see and base your bot off of. Thats what I did, my bot adheres to the apporved rules, so my bot should be allowed in.

I can understand where you're coming from, and the first post does just say "Realistic". However with it being in Stock, and with the further clarification that Jonzu has provided over the issue - which he is perfectly entitled to do, he is not CHANGING any of the approved rules, as I have said before - your robot has been deemed illegal. That's the long and short of it, I feel, and while Jonzu is partly at fault for not clarifying in the first place, I think we should all just put the issue to bed now. Preytor, your robot has been deemed illegal, and I don't think Jonzu will be entering it into the tournament. I think your best bet would be to build another one, in all honesty.

It has been quite clearly stated "REALISTIC", not "normal" stock building with all glitches allowed". Don't go and cry and BAWWW and create a flame war with the rest of the forum here. Popups are not realistic cause they couldn't be built IRL and be as efficient, the only reason we build popups is for ingame efficiency. Deal with it.

Also, you're just getting mad. You have all right to abuse loopholes when a loophole exists. Jonzu doesn't accept popups, and there is no loophole here. If I was jonzu I would seriously consider banning you from this tournament for disrupting the thread and acting like a spoiled child.

Hell, myself, the prophet of efficiency, entered a SAWBOT in a STOCK competition !

I have read over this thread... and find myself slightly agreeing with Preytor. The fact that Jonzu said "Realistic" in his rules, and not IRL realistic, then Preytor's bot was, at that point, legal. Then, AFTER Preytor sent his bot, the rules were "clarified," by that I mean popups were banned and weapon stacking was forbidden. In my opinion, these rules are additions, and not merely clarifications. Imagine is someone was hosting a DSL tournament and the rules said, "Realistic" suddenly stated, after he got several entries he didn't like, that his definition of realism doesn't include a bot using razors. I guarantee you that many people angry at Preytor right now would be outraged.

I agree with you, but I knew that in the discussion thread that Jonzu said that it was IRL realistic and weapon spam and popups were banned. But in hindsight, I can see why Preytor isn't happy.

So what do we do now? Because if it's allowed then I'll be unhappy and wish I put one in as well. And I'm pretty much against popup-fests anyway.

This could easily work, I feel. If it acted more like a conventional axebot, perhaps like Dominator 2 or The Judge, then I think it would be better received with regards to the rule on realism.

Hello ? Are you having a functioning brain ? With the massive uproar Preytor's popup entry just created, and seeing how jonzu reacted to popups, no one will enter a classic popup on there.

Anyway, I do believe Jonzu's point in banning popups and HS and weapon spammed designs that classic stock designs are too BATTLE EFFICIENT. This isn't called Robot Wars Virtual for nothing. Like the show where at least 80% of the bots were ridiculously weak in offense and therefore needed a pit to TKO the opponent, and the rest were either flippers or ridiculously overpowered compared to the other bots.

Also he did said in the discussion thread "robots must be very realistic". Sure the game cannot be made 100% realistic but I am pretty sure if jonzu asks for a realistic tournament ruling in stock, he doesn't want jugglers or popups.

Also, go and check the replicas in the discussion thread. No popups, no unrealistic designs, and pretty much no efficient designs whatsoever.

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.

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.

Well then you just don't use/make those replicas...
...that wasn't so difficult, was it?

Topic Locked. Seriously guys stop complaining. I don't want to host tournament if I'm not happy with it! RW Virtual will come back with a bit different name, and bit more stricter rules. Static wedges rules wont be the only rule I will add next time...

Sorry to bump this, just confirming that Jonzu takes his ban, which will expire on January 18, 2012
