Title: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Scorpion on January 29, 2011, 11:43:08 AM
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/50736TC logo thingy.jpg)
Rules
- The weight class is going to be DSL 2.1 HW
- cheatbot2, custom and AI components are NOT allowed, neither are BFE or AAM.
- DSL realistic rules apply (so yeah you can push it a bit, not too much though)
- One havok restart for each bot, if a bot havoks twice it forfeits the match
- Multibots aren't allowed either
- Bots entered MUST be a spinner, (e.g shell, face, horizontal, vertical, drum, juggler, full body)
- SnS are only allowed if they are a hybrid between SnS and another spinner type (e.g SnS/HS hybrid)
- No hybrids are allowed either unless the bot types mixed are spinners.
- No flails either, sorry but I don't want the havok or the laggy mess.
- Bots are also not allowed component wedges.
  Component wedge = anywedge that's mounted on another component, so no mako,skirt,metal hinge or MCB wedge.
  Basically the only kind of wedge i'm allowing is a chassis wedge, because they're useless.
- 3 minute long matches ofcourse, and 16 overall entrants
- I can AI if needs be, but i'd recomend if you can you do it yourself.

Arena
.

Brackets
The brackets are going to be 4 4 way battle royals with the last 2 survivors going through where they'll face a bot from the next 4 way bracket in a deathmatch and then on it stays to a traditional single elimination, deathmatch set up BUT with a 3rd place playoff aswell as the final.

Which bots will face which in the second round are gonna be decided on points (i.e the surviving bot with the least points in bracket 1 faces the surviving bot with the most in bracket 2 and vice versa, the same applies to bracket 3 and 4).


Entries

1) Marty Midget
2) Craaig
3) Hard bot

Green text = Bot received, AI'd and ready to go
Black text = Bot recieved, but not AI'd
Red text = There's a problem with your bot

Well, there ya go, signups will close when all the bots are approved.
Now cue JB saying these rules can't be changed...

No flails ? HURRAY

Will enter. Probably a wedge :trollface (yes scorpion, I have read all your rules... including the wedge one... now they cannot change, and I can find loopholes at will without you countering my plans. Mwahahahahahah !)
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Scorpion on January 30, 2011, 08:26:58 AM
Glad to see you guys want to enter.
But seriously Nar, what kind of loophole?
Maybe if you made a spinning wedge or something XD

I don't have my plan in mind. Not yet. But I will find a way...

*Starts thinking of a Flaze HW that is a total Craaig ripoff but then decides it would piss Craaig off so then thinks of a new plan that involves no ripping off (except maybe enemy bot's components)*

And doesn't Scorp need to showcase his entry?

It all depends on if he is entering or not.

*Plans loophole abuse*

Tut, loopholes. I've just sent in an honest bot  :rolleyes:
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Scorpion on January 30, 2011, 09:05:35 AM
@ MM received  :mrgreen:
@ Enigma PM bombed
@ badnik No, I didn't think it was right to enter as host, so i'm not going to.
@ G.k Bad G.K, don't even think about it, and stay away from Naryar, he's obviously a bad influence on you ;P
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups

I did loopholes by myself before, see my challenge vs KM.

Would one of my spinner killers (Omnivore or Death From Above) be allowed? If they are take Death From Above off the bot exchange and enter it please. It's under DSL HW SKBT-Death From Above.

Hmmm, both bot's would be fine, but, they both have wedges, if you fixxxed it so one of them didn't have any wedges and sent it to me, it'd be great.

Anyway, i'll start looking through and AIing the bots i've got so far now, i'm pleased with the interest i'm getting in this now.
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: 090901 on January 30, 2011, 02:47:33 PM

Post by: martymidget on February 10, 2011, 01:08:56 PM
It has to be a spinner KM.

If thats a hammer like i think it is.. :p

If its a spinner thats not an SnS or SS, I'll be impressed. Slightly.  :P

Yes, you have, and i've got it, but i've been very busy and/or away from MY laptop, and i'm busy trying to AI when I do have the time,  so yeah, i'll update the list in a sec, don't worry ;P

And KM, the signups are gonna end when they're full and there's 6 spots left atm, so yeah.
If you're gonna die in 4 weeks though, may aswell not bother entering and just focus on living your life ;P

Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups

Do you allow reserved spots or no?
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Scorpion on February 11, 2011, 01:09:49 PM
Not at this point, no, kinda pointless really as it'd still basically come down to first come first serve I suspect, but probably take longer in the long run.
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Preytor_4 on February 11, 2011, 01:26:24 PM
Yeah, plus i just realized my bot has wedges.

Yes, I know, I put you on the front page.....but now i've looked at your bot, it's unrealistic, sorry, but the weapons go right through the CB and the batteries. So you'll need to fixxx that if you want to enter, sorry.
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups

Yes, you did, soooo, the entry list is FULL.

As I said before, i'll acept MINOR updates to bots from those who've entered up untill the end of the 15th, should easily have finished AIing by then, so yeah.

I figured narys loophole.If you put halfsheets on the bottom,and make them extend over the front edge so they are wedges.

As much as this pains me to say.. LRA2 was in the right here.. this tournament is considered active until the expiry date of the 30th..

Seems long since abandoned but active none the less..

Both of you guys should watch how you speak to each other though..
Title: Re: Total Carnage-Signups
Post by: Clickbeetle on April 24, 2011, 08:23:31 PM
Actually, the brackets and videos thread was already created, so signups are closed and it should have a red S.  Scorpion just never bothered to change it.  *goes to change*
