Survival of the Fittest Signups.
« on: April 16, 2010, 10:29:11 PM »
Due to my last project being completed, I'm needing a new one to keep myself from going crazy...It's time for
 
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
 
FORMAT:
 
DSL in Nar AI
Each entrant makes a team consisting of a LW, a MW, and a HW.
Matches consist of a rumble, starting out with all LW's of 4 teams.  When 1 bot is eliminated, the match is stopped and the eliminated bot is removed, to be replaced by the next bot in the team. The match will then begin anew. This goes on until 3 teams are eliminated, last team standing wins the match.
 
RULES:
 

16 entrants only
Each entrant must make their entire team. 
arena will be a reskinned RA2 Tournament arena
This will be ran in NarAI v2.2.  All components legal in that are legal in the tourney
No BFE, AAM, etc.  All building must be done in the bot lab.
No cheatbot2 parts, ai parts, or custom parts allowed.
bots must show controlled movement.
No multibots, since they wouldn't work right anyway.
Realistic rule enforced.
each bot in a team must be different types.
A strict limit of 4 flails PER TEAM.
Standard Havok restart rules.
I reserve the right to edit videos of long matches down.  This will consist of cutting out any extended section of bots in a cluster, barely moving.
Entrants AI'ing their own bots is preferred, however, i can AI if need be.  But i expect no griping if i don't do it the way you want.
 
Bracket is such:


Here's your arena:


Prizes will be:

1st place. Froonium Spike and Froonium Snowplow reskins. These components also feature slightly more hit points then their normal counterparts as well as slightly lighter.  Once won, they can be
           used in any future tournament I may run.
2nd place. Choice of Froonium spike or froonium snowplow.
 
 
There will also be a few awards handed out based on community votes, no prize other than bragging rights.
They are as follows.
 
 
Best built team: self explanatory
Best team theme: Also self explanatory
Darwin Award: Awarded to the bot that got eliminated in the most spectacularly failure way.
Eye of the Tiger: Bot that survived longer than expected
Extinction due to misadventure: Team that should've done better.
TFTW: Team from the west, i think you all know what that means.
 
Tourney will begin when all entrants teams are sent in and approved. 
 
Color coded list:
Team waiting to be Received(NOTE: You are not entered until i receive teams, this is just to help me keep organized)
Team Received
Team Approved
Team Ready
 
 
CURRENT ENTRANTS:
1.090901
2. G.K.
3. Team Xtreemer
4. Bubbleman
5. S.T.C.
6. Ogre
7. FOTEPX
8. Pwnator
9. freeziez
10. Clickbeetle
11. The Ounce
12. Squirrel Monkey
13. Naryar
14.

Somebody approved this before it was ready......does not say Stock, or DSL!
 
 
EDIT: I take it this means DSL...."This will be ran in NarAI v2.2.  All components legal in that are legal in the tourney"

Are we allowed to BFE on The Shred  Sheck because that's the easiest way to get it on a SS?

NaiAI has become a stand alone mod with DSL parts, Darkrat Parts and DSL Cheat parts all apparently balanced (I havent found the time to set up my copy yet)

This sounds interesting, i'll enter.
I... I think I've quit. Lurking and posting where I feel it's needed from time to time. I was never particularly good, but I tried. Never really succeeding, but trying all the same.
This is what I spend my time on now

I see you did the prizes by yourself. They look good. :D

I won't be entering this, though. I'm not that good in DSL.

(^Noob^)

Team From the West: the SFTW team of the tournament.  in other words, the team that's the worst built, not expected to do well.
 
I see you did the prizes by yourself. They look good. :D

I won't be entering this, though. I'm not that good in DSL.

Thanks. Wasn't that difficult once if figured out the meat of it.   Thanks to Sage's tutorial.
