Preytor's Entry is still Unrealistic Popup. Preytor, build different entry or leave the tournament.

NFX, you are a genius.

Totally not kissing up.

No, you don't seem to be listening at all here...

THE RULES ON THE FIRST PAGE HAVE NOT CHANGED.

Jonzu has only CLARIFIED the rules on the first page. It happens numerous times in other Signups threads, there is no reason why this instance should fail to run smoothly like any of the others.  The rules have always been the same, and while you may have interpreted them differently from everyone else, the final decision falls to Jonzu, the host of the tournament, to determine which bots are deemed realistic and which bots are deemed unrealistic. Please accept this, I don't want to have to post the same thing fives times in a row.

Is anyone around here able to comprehend anything I say? I've repeated myself multiple times, supplying proof and posts that explain why bot should be allowed yet no one can that into their brain.
It's like, "no BFE". What does that mean? No bananas for elephants? We all know what the host meant, it we don't understand then we ask what they meant or they will tell you you didn't meet the requirements. It's no different from anything else.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

I swear Preytor has lost his Sanity. I would have given this up three pages ago.

It seems Preytor isn't seeing reason ATM...

jesus christ preytor what the heck are you smoking

DSL realism is for DSL, hence why it is called DSL realism.
A DSL realistic Stock tourney makes no sense at all.
DSL Showcase
is this bot don't lost all razors in a fight before do a damage thought

*bashes preytor with the n00b stick*

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 !

My point still stands, but if you guys can't get that through your thick skulls then screw it.

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.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

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.

How about I make a compromise bot, Reduce my weapons and get rid of DSA (which has already been done), and then enter it.

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.

As of right now (will probably add something else)


Also, lol at the fact that when someone repsected says what I've been saying the entire time, everyone agrees with them.

Well the motor not moving is most likely not realistic.
