« on: May 22, 2014, 07:26:55 AM »
Let's try again


Match Rules
-Best of three
-16 bot tourney
-DSL Unrealistic (Yes unrealistic, like Stock)
-HW 400-800.05KG (I'm giving you guys a 0.5 KG cushion, but this weight includes smart zones)
-Octagon Arena (Hazards off)
-Fights will be scored based on Damage, Aggression and condition of bot after battle (Naryar, Chickenado and Helloface are currently judges)
-I will allow 3 small havoks per round (Anything big I.E back flipping into the roof will warrant you a strike, 3 strikes and you're out)
-If neither bot destroys each other by the end of the round, judges shall decide
-Winner gets to enter in two robots into the next Undisputed should there be another one.

Building/Entry Rules
-No BFE/Hax mode
-One bot per person
-Bot must have at least 1 powered wheel
-Crawlers/bumble balls/cheap norris' are a no
-I'd prefer if you could tell me what you want me to AI your bot as. Also, I can help add on Smart Zones and all, but I'd like it if you could do that.
-ME/Castor armor is legal
-I'll let you update your bots 3 times until I post the SBV
-If a judge enters and his bot fights, I will take his place to avoid biased decisions.

Cheatbot2:
-All wheels except Storm wheel

I will not enter. Empty spots will be filled by Bye bots

DSL unrealistic ? Now that's rare.

cheatbot2 component use is not cool though.

I'll be submitting a HW for this, I just gotta go thumb through what I've got that hasn't debuted or been entered before. :P
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

Probably better to scrap the cheatbot entirely. Flippers are fine with BSG's in standard, and no need to overpower popups to oblivion. MOE motor? Nub tarp.

Octagon arena has no OOTA so, really judge burst flippers are actually at a disadvantage if anything.

MOE motors seem balanced to me and the wheels are okay. All the other extras However I'll have to decline.

I should also mention that spots for judges are open. So if anyone's interested...

MOE motors have the power of a dual perm for a whole lot less weight. :P

It's actually less powerful. Plus, their huge size is hard to work with.

You seem to have missed the point. Judge. Burst. Popups.

Will. Havok. I tried.

But if you truly want to ban them, then I guess I could do that.

Trust me the VS doesn't have nearly enough power than I'd like it to have. The dual HS doesn't have enough weapons and the RPB clone usually gets it's mag motors taken out fairly quickly. But I am very proud of Maelstrom. Very destructive.

Unfortunately the HW I wanted to enter has some Judge-powered flippers and while it's "stable" it doesn't seem like it's reliable enough to make it without being disqualified. :(

I know that feel

anyways guys, judge burst motors have been banned. seeing as how smashbox got along just fine with bsg's, i reckon you guys can live without judge bursts.

plus the thought of a non-havoking judge burst pop-up scares me

and i'm looking for 3 judges so if you're interested pm me

only n00bs use cheat components anyways in normal building because they are UNSKILLED and they want an unfair advantage. There.

Unless it is an all-cheat tournament then it is fine.

Also, I'll be willing to judge.
