Neat. I like it!

Why are we sacking Exo?

Mediocre Employee

Ok, thats just a win :P

Hey Joe you know you don't actually need to skin all the components invisible right?  Just shove this in the arena py:
 

Code: [Select]

    def Introduction(self):
        for comp in xrange(1, plus.describe(0).count(" ")): plus.show(0,comp,0)
        for comp in xrange(1, plus.describe(1).count(" ")): plus.show(1,comp,0)
        yield 0

That will make everything except the chassis on both bots invisible before the match starts.  (The chassis can also be made invisible if you change the first 1 to a 0.)

Nice work, Click, That'll save Joe <expletive>loads of time. =D

:O Thank you very much mr beetle (sorry read this on my phone days ago but forgot to reply when I got back to my computer) huge time saver..

Sign Ups are expected to open on September 24, the signups phase will not have a time limit but will close 24 hours after the 16th robot is sent in.. 1 free update is allowed if its done before the close of sign ups, update means exactly that, update of the existing robot.. you may not send a different robot later so as to save your place..

Due to Clickbeetle just saving me hours of work now and further down the track I will hold you a place from the opening time on the 24th until the end of the 25th (central time) in the event the sign ups fill up before the close of the 25th, I will accept the next legal entry and hold it as a substitute that will slip in if Click doesnt take his place.

Damn it, I can't choose what to build. All my somewhat original anti HS designs have a fatal flaw, me building a HS would get boring since we all know there's gonna be at least five single-HPZ 9-macers on this, a rammer will get raped by the first popup it would fall on (if it does fall on one), a popup is way too dangerous to enter and not reliable at LW level, a SnS can't reach the weapon weight and spinning speed a HS gets... damn.

VS would be an option but will clearly get outweaponed by a HS... in overall I can't find anything else worth entering than a rammer, seeing that LW popups are much more rare than HS and rammers in overall.

Due to personally tragic reasons (hence my lack of activity in the last 3 days) I dont really feel comfortable at this stage going with the "Graveyard" arena and other similar themed content..

So its either postpone the tournament (Id rather not do it since I want some projects to keep my mind occupied) or face-lift it a bit..

So if anyone has any existing arena suggestions (including Backlash arena's in the preview thread) feel free to suggest them..

Sorry for any inconvenience..

[G.K.]

You were planning on using the old XTY arena for this last year, iirc? How about we go back to that?

[Naryar]

Pretty sure you could do an awesome metal skull arena reskin and use it for this tourney.

Sorry to hear that.  I hope everything is going to be ok Joe.  If someone close to you passed away, maybe the arena could be dedicated to them in honor.

[JoeBlo]

I tend to like to keep personal and GTM life separate with my problems.. its last thing you guys need to hear..

XTY= Xtreemer Than You?

[JoeBlo]

ah right, I thought it was TX's tournament name but couldnt remember what it was..

[Avalanche]

Ouch.Good luck with your personal life.And joey, the first logo was a blindfolded raveing rabbid.It might be a idea to reuse that!

[Wolfsbane]

if i can make it in time, i'll join

[Gazea2]

My thoughts go out to you Joe. If you need any help (re-skinning or whatever), I'm here.

[JoeBlo]

Nearly finished a new arena for this.. the only clue I will give at this stage is its a heavily modified Metal Skull Arena..
