Two Tribes *Signups Closed*
« on: June 11, 2012, 03:35:22 PM »


DSL HW
No AAM/BFE/Hax Mode/Performance Enhancing Drugs/Severe Gamma Radiation Exposure.
Arena is a modified Ring Arena with higher walls.
Realistic Rule Enabled.
Multibots Not Allowed.
SNS Banned. They can go play in traffic for all I care. SS are banned as well.
Initially, Matches are 1 minute each.
Each bot allowed one havok restart per match, after that they are removed from the match and lose one life (See below).
Bots can be upgraded right up until the deadline is reached.
No limit on entries. Everyone can enter one bot.
Narmour-Be-Gone enabled, so don't even try it.

Now, here is the fun part:
-After the deadline has passed and people have entered their robots, I shall pick two captains and two vice captains, the remaining participants shall be split into two "tribes". The captain's job is to the sort out their respective small armies into groups of two before each round starts. Everyone has the option to opt out of being a captain.
-Each team from one tribe shall then fight a team in the other tribe for a minute in a tag team match. If they get flipped out, or immobilized? They survive to fight another day. If they get eliminated via control board destruction? They then lose a "life".
-Each robot has two "lives" each. If they lose all of their lives then they are eliminated. Surviving robots after each round then get rearranged into new partnerships by the captains if need be, rinse and repeat. Each captain has 3 days to do this, if I don't hear from the cap'n in this time I shall then ask the Vice Captain for selections. If I still don't hear anything I shall randomize any teams in the tribe that have "orphaned" robots (Bots that have lost their teammate) for that round and find another captain/vice captain for the next round.
-If there are disproportionate numbers of surviving robots in the tribes (Example: 8 robots in one tribe and 10 robots in another), then the captains shall also choose which robots are to "sit out" if need be.
-If there are two consecutive rounds with no control board destruction the time limit shall be raised from 1 minute to 2 minutes. If this occurs again then the time limit shall be increased to 3 minutes. After yet another round, then OOTA's and Immobilisation's shall deduct one life from the respective robot.
Basically:
-1st round w/o immobilisation's: 1 Minute.
-2nd round w/o immobilisation's: 1 Minute.
-3rd round w/o immobilisation's: 2 Minutes.
-4th round w/o immobilisation's: 3 Minutes.
-5th round w/o immobilisation's: 3 Minutes, OOTA's and Immobilisation's minus one life each.

-A Tribe wins once it eliminates the other tribe fully.
-This shall be my entry:


Entrants:
-Conraaa: Opt Out of Captaincy
-Madman3: Considered for Vice Captain
-Enigma: Considered for Captain
-Plazmic Inferno: Opt Out of Captaincy
-NFX: Considered for Captain
-SKBT: Considered for Captain
-Somebody: Considered for Captain
-Ty4er: ???
-Wolfsbane: Considered for Captain
-Gauche Suede: Considered for Captain
-MikeNCR: Opt Out of Captaincy
-Badnik96: Considered for Captain
-Naryar: Considered for Captain
-Urjak: Opt Out of Captaincy
-Hercules: Opt Out of Captaincy
-Logannaruto: Opt Out of Captaincy
-ClickBeetle: Opt Out of Captaincy
-Gropaga: Opt Out of Captaincy
-MartyMidget: Considered for Captain
-Squirrel Monkey: Considered for Captain
-JailhouseRocCourthouseDoc: Opt Out of Captaincy

Remember, say so if you don't want to be considered to be a captain.

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.

Seems like an interesting idea. Kinda like the Team Championship series Vertigo ran. You're going to need a fairly active member to be a captain, though, although if they're specified rather than randomly chosen, that would help avoid a poor captain/vice captain being elected.

Yeah I put that one in just to make sure I can pick active captains. I'll also make it so people can specify that they don't want to be captain. Which could mean we run into problems if no one takes the bullet.

potential captain says hi

And I nominate the Half Circle arena, it provides a fresh challenge and means each fight won't be a wedge war. And giant hammers FTW :D

It'll make you build something not OP for once.

Also I agree with ty, half circle arena is a massive bugger.

Because it's not like SS are much better when it comes to not havoking in my experience.
Besides, why do I do if someone enters something like this?

Technically it's a SNS, but it has a shell, so it's a SS...
I'm sorry, Urjak. But it means you'll have to make a robot that moves normally and not in a meltybrain fashion for once :P

You are aware that there are only 2 capitains and 2 vice capitains right ?
