Sheet metal is awesome and fun to make robots out of. I prefer 1/16" steel
Oh this is a tourney...
How is judging going to work? RA2 points or realistic judging? If you go with RA2 points you are going to get more RA2 style bots and less IRL style bots.
Too much DSL D:No, More like too much IRL DSL.
Angled spinners are banned until someone gives me an IRL example of one.

I mean one that's @ 45 degrees. not like a very slight angle.
Angled hs are fine, i think you mean angled vs :P
Will enter if i can find a good entry.

Dude, you can't just go and say what people are entering...
Depending on how VE2 does here, I'll see whether I enter that in BB4 or not. For a change, I now aim for a bit of winning.
Oh you.Depending on how VE2 does here, I'll see whether I enter that in BB4 or not. For a change, I now aim for a bit of winning.
I'll be honest, you do have a chance.
(Well TBH every bot does because the build quality is so high but X3)
Multibots and Walkers allowed extra 100KGThis rule confuses me. So I'm allowed to enter with 2 BW's?
Signups close in 5 days. If you've sent me a bot and it hasn't appeared there, please send me it via gametechmod's private messaging thing.

I love IRL tourneys.Me too brah.
Yople~I love IRL tourneys.Me too brah.
Just to clear things up: Cheatbot2 IS allowed as long as it doesn't break and realism rules. So, thatm eans that if you want a cheatbot2 component on your bot, it can't be one of these 'HURR I'LL NEVER FALL OFF EVEN IF I GO AGAINST 47 CAESIUMS' components.So we just have to check if it has standard DSL efficiency?

Judge Motors? =P
Under the current tournament laws, rules cannot change. You said 'cheatbot2 components', and didn't specify which ones.
These are the rules, they cannot change.
This topic now functions as a signups thread.
Balls to cheatbot2!
My NON CHEATBOT2 BOT is on the exchange under the name of The Scrapper.
Why do i get this feeling im gonna get scrapped?(ucwutididthar?)
I used the parts I did to represent the natural strength of a single solid shell of metal. IRL shell wouldn't break apart into section in one hit. So my bot is MORE realistic.Balls to cheatbot2!

Yes. Yes I did.
And it wasn't funny.
BTW, (Looking at you S_M) this doesn't mean you can go 'HURR IT'S IRL TO HAVE 471/2 SPIKES ON A SHELL SPINNER *coughhackwheeze*', because that's just not IRL at all.
Like I said, keep it IRL.
Sent a bot yesterday. Hope it is in the show.
Update the first post
Was thinking to enter... oh well...
Might troll him by building something, then =P
Depends if anyone else wants one, really. If so, then I'll do that. If not, I'll be alright with sitting back and watching.Might troll him by building something, then =P
Go on right ahead.
OOH WAIT NO FREEZIEZ TROLLED YOU AND BEAT YOU.
Now, Unless Jonz doesn't enter a bot by tonight, you ain't got a spot.
Unless you want a wildcard...?
but i sent mine D:
EDIT: owait nvm
how is it not irl D:
I'd accept it. Looks IRL enough for me.This. Although I've also entered and I'm <expletive>ing bricks.
gee fine

The firestorm flippers are basically armour which are moulded around the motor and stuff and acts as support.
Tell me how you find it unrealistic then.

I saw this and was very confused for a moment(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/77794ChopShop.jpg)
No prob Fotepx, didn't know you had the wrong bot :PI still don't like the weapon spam and cloneage (new word) but I'm okay with it if Foxpet is.
Hold on lemme find it nand send it, would be by today hopefully.

Still only had two weapons instead of eight. But I suppose it could easily be done IRL. Just wouldn't be particularly damaging.
Well, that's fine then =DStill only had two weapons instead of eight. But I suppose it could easily be done IRL. Just wouldn't be particularly damaging.
I don't have an issue with lots of smaller teeth, as there's not a good saw equivalent to this in DSL-

Should this not be in SBV now?

You and your DSL realistic bot with crapload of weapons.
three craploads.You and your DSL realistic bot with crapload of weapons.
lol if 8 is a crapload, what do you call 24?inb4threecraploads
I don't think abbreviating or truncating the robot's names in the splash is a good idea, personally. HFTN, C' Born, FAI, TLBFTF, they could by anything.Not enough space, most people know the names anyway,
No way in heck TX's bot is IRL realistic.It is.
no. That many razors and irons on a polycarb rack is not IRL realistic.No way in heck TX's bot is IRL realistic.It is.
Well, it's possible to do IRl.no. That many razors and irons on a polycarb rack is not IRL realistic.No way in heck TX's bot is IRL realistic.It is.
