FYI, the RA2T#2 Arena and the DSL Tournament Arena are just the same arena but with a different skin, and they're not very balanced as bots can and will get stuck under the corner spikes/saws.

Yeah, I swear the DSL Arena is longer (more rectangular.)

It's still really unbalanced though.

ring arena is just as bad if not worse with bots just pushing each other around the edge of the arena

How would you guys feel about allowing bots that bypass the rule of 7 by using serge's .exe? I think it would make the tournament a lot more interesting.

that could be fun, i mean, the realisitic rule already prevents quite a lot of OP stuff that could be made without rule of seven, so it should not be causing too much trouble

I can't see a whole lot of robots (middleweights no less) actually having a use for the anti-RO7 patch due to ironforge being so easy to build in, but it mite b cool.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I think it's good. Might help against those less adept at building.

Although this topic has only recently become inactive and locked, Badger has given the 'okay' to anyone wishing to take this tournament over. If you wish to take on this idea, you needn't contact me or Badger, simply make a new thread about it.

Same. This is harder than it looks (especially since I can't seem to build MWs in Ironforge to save my life :P )
