Ahhhh, cool cool. He really should start a showcase if he doesn't have one already for help purposes.

Go 75.5! I've been waiting for ever to have a tourney to enter it in. I <33 it.

I predict I will loose the first match my bot goes into.

Had the same with Atilla. never thought it will have itÂ´s first tourneyfight in my own tourney.

Also:
Is the wildcardmatch the second ever family duel (after Barbie vs. Phlox)?

G.K. · « **Reply #24 on:** June 27, 2010, 02:18:19 PM »

They faced twice, and Reier faced N500 in RR1

Brackets are up.
Time for match result prediction.

Oh dear.

This is gonna be messy.

Yay, I'm not fighting any wedgebots. =D

First match: Craaig's machine looks a lot more destructive that the others, though Atilla could take its Skirts off.
Second match: I think it's going to be kinda close between myself and Powerrave, but I think Scarlet Transmission could just edge it.
Third match: Looks quite close. Not too sure about DMS3, Repulsion Field could tear it apart pretty quick, I think...Repulsion Field gets my vote.
Fourth match: Thinking that Squirrel_Monkey gets through the wildcard, and Naryar's seeming lack of confidence in his wedges...I think Bulldozer 2 should win this one reasonably convincingly.

Fairly confident in my match. Between me and Thy. If he's got enough armour to kill a hammer, Fever's doomed.

Naryar · « **Reply #30 on:** June 27, 2010, 04:16:33 PM »

If i can get rid of that flipper/outwedge it, i'm fine. If not...

martymidget · « **Reply #31 on:** June 27, 2010, 04:28:46 PM »

Lol, sns. Im doomed :P

Thyrus · « **Reply #32 on:** June 28, 2010, 12:43:44 AM »

it seems that I accidently used the unupdated version of Clowning Around 2. have to redo the splash and the brackets. Fail eats time ^^

edit:

Good luck everyone!

NFX · « **Reply #33 on:** June 28, 2010, 06:35:00 AM »

I told you all Joe would enter a firebot. =P

DG · « **Reply #34 on:** June 28, 2010, 06:58:22 AM »

Nice, its here.

Lets see, my predictions and thoughts.

Liquid Quarry 2: A rammer which might outlast a bot or two, and if it can get a lucky hit in, who knows.
Ripshredder: Don't see this one go very far.
Hope no more 5.2: Because of its slick design i can see this one be a final contender. Looking good.
Atillo Revolution: Seems to be more durable and offensively better suited then ripshredder, but doesn't look very grounded. Maybe will outlast a bot if lucky.
Focus Fire: Looking dangerous, if none can take it out i can maybe see it be a contender with some luck.
Fever: Looking slick, a bot i'd be especially afraid of.
Bulldozer 2: One of those bots which could be underrated.
Repulsion field: If it can keep its momentum up, dangerous.
1001 Problems: Honestly don't see it go very far, i expect to see a loss of a lot of body parts.
Titanium Terror: Looks fairly decent and nimble, might get eaten up fast by other particular bots though if not very lucky.
Scarlet transmission: Sitting there and spinning, waiting for bots to wreck themselves on its hammers, if not then probably won't get very far.
Clowning around 2: Don't want to get stuck on there, if it doesn't get flipped it'll probably outlast and/or destroy some bots.
Grinder: I have no idea what to expect from its performance, if it performs remotely like when it does when driving it manually then it could eat up a bot or two, but might aswell drive itself OOTA instead.
fsdhsk;fsfgvjh or something: A danger to a lot of bots if they drive itself stuck on its wedges, will perform decently to well i expect.
Devil may spin 3: Dunno about how high those weapons are, don't see it incapacitate other bots with ease even if looking intimidating, and it might make itself difficult if being unneedlessly aggressive.
Wildcards.
S=FTW: Expect it to dance a bit, outlasting and outscoring Rain rain go away.
Rain rain go away: Looks stable but will most likely get eaten up fast.
Lord of Locusts 2.1: I see this one be the winner of the wildcard and a possible contender if bots fail to reach its chassis and destroy it. It probably won't loose a hammer any time soon, and if it does it'll likely dance its way into victory, which can be very annoying.

Liquid Quarry 2

I lol'd.

DG · « **Reply #36 on:** June 28, 2010, 07:16:59 AM »

Whoops, well, i guessed it was either query or quarry, lol. (playing civ 4 a lot might have something to do with it)
Also, that font is hard to read imo.

NFX · « **Reply #37 on:** June 28, 2010, 07:18:17 AM »

CIV?

And just for future reference, it's Valid Query.

DG · « **Reply #38 on:** June 28, 2010, 07:19:31 AM »

Thyrus · « **Reply #39 on:** June 28, 2010, 12:44:26 PM »

@MM: I reuploaded brackets and splash. hope it`s ok now?
