Title: War of the Giants
Post by: Mr. AS on May 11, 2012, 05:30:14 PM
so i decided to start another tourney

(http://i.imgur.com/E3PbL.png)

DSL SHW IRL (bots deemed as not IRL realistic will not be accepted)
Matches will be ONE ON ONE, for 2 MIN
Arena used will be the DSL Tournament Arena
Arena hazards will be ON
Matches will be best 2 out of 3
BFE/AAM/All glitches (including Hax Mode to bypass some of the worse made collision meshes) will be allowed as long as it maintains IRL REALISM
Bots will be given TWO HAVOK RESTARTS PER MATCH before they lose matches for each havok
Multibots WILL be allowed, any weight difference is allowed
32 Entry spots will be available
Signups will be open for 2 WEEKS, then they will close and I will post the SBV thread soon after, if there are not enough spots taken, byebot(s) will replace the vacant area(s)
Bots can be updated ONCE before the splash is made (I will make a post saying when), "Placeholder" bots will not be allowed
Metal Hinges used as wedge and caster armor (like ti halfplates attached directly to chassis) are NOT ALLOWED
Cheatbot2 components allowed are Judge Burst (Up to 3 allowed), and MOE Motor (Up to 2 allowed) (Both are located under "Extras")

Looking alright. Ideally, you should add some kind of clarification about Havok restarts. I'll probably enter, though. It looks like fun. =)

Yep.
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: NFX on May 28, 2012, 11:03:20 AM
Mean Streak, 13 Black, Shredder, Village Idiot, to name a few. It should be perfectly IRL, although they all used discs, I don't think I've ever seen an IRL bot with a pair of bars.

Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: NFX on May 28, 2012, 11:36:02 AM
As long as it is only reskinned and not edited in any other way. That would make it a custom component.

Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: NFX on May 28, 2012, 11:37:36 AM
I'm pretty sure they're in NAR AI somewhere. "shwmaker" and "uhwmaker", I think they're called. Just copy and paste them over, txt files and gmf folders.

nar ai has some or you could make one by copypasting a regular smartzone and changing the mass to -400

I'd have to agree with S_M here, I'm afraid. It sets quite a dangerous precedent, after the host's received a number of entrants, then that would leave the door open for them to alter their bot to better fight the competition. I'd say stick to the original version, sorry.

I may update if I can get some time tomorrow. Besides, I don't think you're allowed to close signups early unless they're full. Members could be making and testing bots for the deadline, and they would miss out when signups are closed early.

@enigma those look like pretty good byebots (except for the use of heavy plows on the second one), i might use them if that doesnt interfere with the "no changing rules" rule

@enigma that would be good, or at least downgrade the plows to light plows

Post by: 12yearOldPwner on June 07, 2012, 05:43:00 AM
I guess there are only 14 entrants. And Noodle is still building an entry.

Can't you just do a wildcard rumble instead of having 13 byebots?
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: Mr. AS on June 14, 2012, 09:54:16 PM
^well i dont know if that would violate the "cant change the rules" thing, i would if i could

and idk how laggy it would be because my comp is a piece of ship

Erm, no. My bot was not entered for a rumble.
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: NFX on June 15, 2012, 04:26:52 AM
As S_M said, a rumble would sort of cheat out members who didn't design their bot for rumbles. So what I'd suggest is a Wildcard mini-tournament, with two one-on-one matches, where the winners fight for a spot in the main bracket. That would allow a Wildcard system, and negate the need for a rumble.
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on June 15, 2012, 04:38:34 AM
Just have a round 1 with only 3 battles...

But don't the rules say you can have only one wildcard fight?

Thank you!

I'm agreeing with S_M on this one, people didn't enter a wildcard, they entered a 32-bot IRL SHW tourney.
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: NFX on June 15, 2012, 09:54:52 AM
That's only for the first tournament, 16 entrants or 15 plus one four-member wildcard. After the first one, I think you can get up to 32 members. We can either have an absurd amount of byes, which some people seem to be against here, have a wildcard rumble which would put some people at a disadvantage, or have a wildcard mini-tournament, which gets it down to 16 entrants with no rumbles. It's Mr. AS's tournament, though, so it's up to him, I suppose.

4th option, like S_M said: http://challonge.com/tournament/bracket_generator?ref=QLJIOQTJLL (http://challonge.com/tournament/bracket_generator?ref=QLJIOQTJLL)
With randomly generated numbers of course.
Title: Re: War of the Giants
Post by: Mr. AS on June 15, 2012, 10:03:48 AM
OK...... this is how it will go:

round 1 will be 3 1-on-1 battles (a mini tourney) to decide who gets into the main bracket

example

bot1 ---
           |--bot1   
bot2 ---        |
                    |--bot1
bot3 ---        |
           |--bot4
bot4 ---

bot1 goes on to compete against the other 15 other entered bots

Post by: Badnik96 on June 15, 2012, 10:06:49 AM

Just do Conraaa's thing, that way the last 4 to enter don't get disadvantaged. We entered well within the time limit and so shouldn't have to fight through 2 extra rounds just to enter the main bracket.

If you're going for IRL, this is generally how it's handled for real tournaments as well.
