The Kings - Signups

[Paranoia]

Proposed Format:

There will be four initial brackets, each consisting of four robots. Robots will have to fight for the hilltop in the middle of the arena in order to earn points. Once the three minute match-time is done or two of the robots have been eliminated, the two remaining entries or the two entries with the highest amount of points will move on to the next bracket, ect. The tournament is single-elimination only, and no Loser's Bracket will be present, however if there is a tie between two robots at the end of the match, a "decider" deathmatch-battle will be done between the two tied robots to see who goes through. The format will continue until only two robots are left. The two remaining robots will be pit in a final battle which uses a non-KOTH format, and the winner of the finals will be the winner of the tournament.

Rules:

General Rules:

• Stock LW only, custom components will be omitted.
• 16 Entries, bye-bots will be constructed to fill empty-entries if necessary.
• I will be handling the AI, however it would be a help if you could name your controls accordingly. (Forward, LeftRight, Spin, ect.)
• No cheatbot2 parts, AI Parts will however be allowed, including the Snapper II.
• BFE, Thyrus Glitch and other external edits are banned. Skinning is not included.
• I will be allowing the Trovaner Chassis Glitch, not that anyone needs it.
• Hax Mode and Uber Stacking is banned, however the eFFe Glitch, Snapper Loading and other similar glitches are permitted.
• No 140cm Extenders, period.
• The bot must have at least a two-wheel drive. 1WD Sit'n'Spins, Bumble-Balls, Cluster-Bots and all types of Crawlers will be disqualified.
• Cheap-Norris bots will be disqualified.
• Multibots are not allowed, however robots with interchangeable weaponry (multiple entries with one identical chassis, drive and such, but each with different weapons) are allowed to a limit of six weapon varieties.
• Unlimited Upgrades/Exchanges are allowed during the sign-ups period. Only robots which have interchangeable weaponry available will be able to be swapped-out during the tournament.

Havok Rules:

• There will be no Havok-restarts during the main tournament, however there will be one Havok-restart available for the final-battle or decider/tiebreaker-matches.

The Arena:

Hazards off, will be used for the Final-Battle and Regular Rounds.

My Entry:

Jackrabbit, Plastic, 3 Pinks, 247.1kg and 2 Z-Teks. Jackrabbit duplicates will be used as bye-bots.

KOTH tourney?
Interesting

[Venko]

I have some everyday regular questions :
-The arenas hazards will be ON or OFF?
-So the final showdown will not be a KotH type match? What arena for the 1vs1 non KotH battles you will use?
-Explain better :

Code: [Select]

however if there is a conflict between two robots at the end of the match, a battle will take place in order to decide who moves on to the next round.-You need to show us the Bye bot too.
-We need your stance about the use of the newly discovered/unlocked cheaty 140 cm - 5 kilos square extenders.
-We need your stance about the newly discovered uber stack glitch (components (batteries, other motors) stacked inside a motors).
-Is the custom armour shine banned?
-Change your rule about the controled movement to "at least 2 powered wheels", cos you are allowing the 1WD HSs for now. Also, what about half-crawlers?
-Make you stance about "Cheap Norris" type bots.

-You will need to iron what is "interchangeable weaponry" to avoid future problems. I have some blind spots in my understanding of how this rule will work.

Sorry, for me being a "tournaments rules nazi".

The only thing, that I don't like, is LW, MW would be better. But other than that, it's a OK tournament with some new/cool stuff.

I plan to enter tho.

Ian there is no such thing as the uberstack glitch, it's axle loading

Where you saw Ian, rofl 



-Still can't understand what "conflict" means in : "...if there is a conflict between two robots at the end of the match...".
-"Is the custom armour shine banned?" <-- This didn't get an answer.
-So, about the "interchangeable weaponry", we can change only the weapon system, not any other system, like the drive system for example (while keeping the chassis the same)?
-Probably no one will enter with a trinity flyer, but it's not bad to ban them too.

After you solve these above ^ you are ready for a green tick.

-"Is the custom armour shine banned?" <-- This didn't get an answer.

why does this even matter

[Badnik96]

lol you guys are basically identical anyway

sorry though :P

[Paranoia]

Anything else which needs clarification? Or am I ready to Green-Tick?

[Naryar]

Seems nice. Maybe I will get off my ass and build a pusher.

[Shield]

Time to build a generic Rammer 

[Paranoia]

Just going to green-tick since Vanjo isn't here to make clarifications and corrections.

Now a signups topic.

[Paranoia]

Four days left, you should consider building an entry if you don't want to see a tournament with fourteen bye-bots.
