I can see you removing his entire weaponry in the first hit, if you get the exposed poly extender.
 
I should be able to OOTA freeziez, though, provided he doesn't spikeball or skitter around too much.

Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: nicsan2009 on November 27, 2011, 01:15:52 PM
IT'Z PREDICTION TIMEZ!
Round one
Tyler>Powerrave depends on whose weapon lasts longer and I think bully will outlast him.
MikeNCR>SKBT I would choose SKBT but it has no weapons
TRIAS>Rob0 TRIAS is just to powerful right here
SM>MassimoV    ^see above^
Me>TX I thing I can overpower him if my bot is fast enough to knock off those weapons
Smashy>naryar dat wedge!
JD>Badnik closest fight yet and I think JD has just enough to fight Badnik off
NFX>Freeziez I think NFX is gonna flip him OOTA

ROUND 1:
POWERRAVE VS TYLER = Ty4er, because he outweapons PR and has lots of protection.
MIKENCR VS SKBT = SKBT, because he could get an OOTA.
ROBOSHARK VS TRIAS = Don't want to predict my own battle.
S_M VS MASSIMOV = S_M, because THAT IS BEASTLY
NICSAN VS TX = Nicsan, because I've seen that bot in his showcase and it looks good. TX does have a wedge though.
NARYAR VS SMASHYSMASHY = SS, because I think it can outwedge it (just)
BADNIK96 VS JD = Badnik, cause he could damage JD's chassis.
FREEZIEZ VS NFX = NFX because he OOTA freezies.

Guys, contrary to seemingly popular belief, I have not a hope in heck of beating Nary.

My bot, it is not invertable.

Do you want me to use the other version of his bot, to make it fairer?

Also, sorry about videos taking so long, it's just that Fraps has kindly decided to die on me.

You can't change my entry. It's 100% legal and IRL.

He has a point, but at the same time, these guys have a point as well. Take your pick: Be sporting or win this competition with no competition whatsoever.

I'm not going to win. There are flippers in a box-rushable, low walled arena...
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: NFX on November 30, 2011, 01:48:43 PM
I don't think he should have to change his entry. It's legal, it doesn't break any rules, I think it looks IRL enough. There are worse culprits. If he wins, he wins, if he loses, he loses. Just keep him in as he is.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: smashysmashy on November 30, 2011, 02:39:23 PM
I would have liked to have known the arena before SBV, though.

Otherwise I would have built a flipper :p

His FRAPS has failed on him. So this is on hold until he gets it running again.

I could run it in an emergency, since I'm using a better computer than the one in BYAG.

That's right, folks, Sheetmetal is back on the road. Sorry about all the drama llama, but the problem was in my Java. I was using 64-bit Java on a 32-bit machine, that's why RA2 got all pissy when it came to recording. Anyway, re-installed Java, and now it works. So, expect videos today or tommorow.

Cool. Can't wait to get beaten by the dsl realistic bot... Or I need to be lucky enough to hit that weapon motor of him.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: ty4er on December 28, 2011, 06:57:43 AM
cool

and it's irl realistic.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: powerrave on December 28, 2011, 08:50:26 AM
Comparing that to both irl and dsl realistic, it has the same building style a dsl realistic bot has. I don't see how you think that this is irl realistic (and no, I am not talking about just the weapon).
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: NFX on December 28, 2011, 08:52:27 AM
It looks remarkably like Supernova to me, I would say it's perfectly IRL Realistic. It's just used some efficient components (granted I wouldn't have put 8 Light DS Teeth on there), but I can't personally see anything wrong with it.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: ty4er on December 28, 2011, 09:14:10 AM
i was watching an old robot wars with supernova and thought that i could make it in DSL. 2 big teeth would be waaay too weak or wouldn't fit in without being unrealistic so i went for lots of small teeth, like some sort sawblade.
(http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTa57E6KR7i1suEAjkh2t7JPcWVYSLbm-7Jq5Zbh5eUJGQFQpdr)
This has 6 teeth and is built irl. Mine just has 2 more. i think you're just trying to get rid of me because i used some average/good weapons. IRL isn't just about having semi-bad weapons
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: powerrave on December 28, 2011, 09:19:58 AM
And a heavy armour plate can easily be mounted to 1 little weak extender, same goes for drive. I can't imagine that that would ever last irl.
Also, since you lot obviously can't read, I'll quote something I said earlier.
(and no, I am not talking about just the weapon).
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: ty4er on December 28, 2011, 09:22:44 AM
I was building irl in DSL, some things have to be done like that.

The plates can be put onto the chassis easily and be very sturdy on there. the drive would be on/in the plate.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: powerrave on December 28, 2011, 09:31:37 AM
doubt it wouldn't be sturdy enough. It is an extremely small chassis and for the plates, still a lot of weight goes to the front.
I really can't see this appear or not fall apart irl.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: ty4er on December 28, 2011, 09:37:35 AM
have you ever seen supernova's insides? It's almost exactly the same iirc.

the plates can be part of the chassis but that can't be done in dsl easily. What do you mean by a lot of weight goes to the front? All that's there is the motor and disk which can be done irl.

So, what do you want me to do? DQ him? Give the spot to someone else? Make him build a new one?

TX clearly is cheating.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: NFX on December 29, 2011, 06:23:47 AM
This is always going to be the problem with IRL building. Someone's definition of IRL might not fit with someone else's definition, and one of these debates will spring up. I'd say if he can provide evidence of a bot that has been built IRL that has the same setup as his robot, then we'll see where we can go from there.
Title: Re: SheetMetal SBV
Post by: G.K. on December 29, 2011, 08:20:05 AM
FOTEPX accepted it as IRL, so everybody else should. I don't see why people are saying it isn't IRL realistic, personally.

Yeah, my main focus is on the album. All the bots are AI'd and all, but I don't really have the time to mak an album, plus film, plus edit, plus try and get this promoted, plus school, plus have my own life.
