LOL @ Paul:proud:
in all fairness Mark, just starting a new tournament may not help much, youre very inexperienced I dont think you get everything right by simply opening a new thread.
Go the the how to improve-thread for advice, once you gained enough of that you might be able to pull off a tournament, it worked wonders for Liam :wink:
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Yeah Mark, Martijns right.I started just as badly as you, but I now have a successful tournament under my belt and my second, even more successful one is drawing to a close.
-
Virtual Robot Wars

-
Virtual Robot Wars
would that mean there are robots that are NOT allowed to enter?
why are Sheer Heart Attack 2 and Nitro-Gene still on that list?
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Kodys robots,
Paul said I could use Nitro-Gene, and if you dont want to enter, fine.
BUT PLEASE ENTER SHA2!! PLEASE!!! :sad:
-
Virtual Robot Wars
dude, just open a competition, say what the competitionll be like, what the rules are, and how many robots you want from how many people, and see what you can get, mkay?
if you open a good (and small) competition, with a proper introduction, then Ill most likely enter, and SHA2 will most likely be among my entrants, k?
-
Virtual Robot Wars
The Competition begins.
I would like each roboteer to use at least 3 machines in this competition, but if you have less than 3, just use the ones you have.
Clusterbots are allowed, but they have a limit of 5 parts at max.
wheeled robots have a max of 100kg
tracked robots have a max of 110kg
shuffling robots have a max of 150kg
true walking robots have a max of 200kg
Flying bots are not allowed.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
What will round 1 be like?
What will round 2 be like?
What will round 3 be like?
Any house robots?
What arena will be used?
Mark, look in Crash and Burn or Martijns tournament to see what a decent introduction looks like.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Round 1: 2 4-Robot Battles
Round 2: 2 2-Robot Battles
Heat Final: 1 2-Robot Battle
No House Robots
The Battlebox Arena will be used.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Ill enter Sir Spinalot. Wait Sir Spinalot is already enter? Wow! :mrgreen::crazy::rofl:
-
Virtual Robot Wars
I knew you would ask because you would say in other tournaments:
I want to enter my robot Sir Spinalot in this Tournament.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Wow. That was very nice of you. Thank you, Mark. :mrgreen:
-
Virtual Robot Wars
-
Virtual Robot Wars
There are still 37 spots left.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Andre, if Spinalot is a near exact copy of Tornado Mer, you can use a 6-Magmotor Gearbox, which is the most powerful weapon motor to date.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Flick of the Wrist, Gravity, and X-Terminator have qualified for this tourney.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
...put Radioactive in, see how things go.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
MARK!
Martijn hasnt entered. WHY must you put in one of his bots after we clearly told you not to enter a vapourbot without permission???
-
Virtual Robot Wars
He did enter with Flick of the Wrist. See the VRW Iron Gauntlet Challenge thread for proof.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Radioactive is in.  There are now 33 spots left.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Quote Martijn: if you open a good (and small) competition, with a proper introduction, then Ill most likely enter, and SHA2 will most likely be among my entrants, k?
That means HE HASNT ENTERED. And hes not likely going to enter now.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
...Mark, standard etiquette here is to open a new thread and ask people to enter, not to reuse an old thread and put peoples robots in without asking. Especially after theyve already shouted at you about it...
-
Virtual Robot Wars
SHA2 is now out.
There are now 34 spots left.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Eh...you still have Flick of the Wrist in...
Yeah, I believe you should open a new thread for the few people that want to join, capiche? And for the last time, DONT TAKE OTHER PEOPLES VAPOURBOTS.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
I think itd be better if you lowered your ambitions considerably...64 robots is too many. And by too many I mean that you are being delusional, especially after all thats happened.
Id go for something a lot smaller, with AT THE ABSOLUTE MOST 16 robots, with eight being ideal. And dont take peoples vapours without asking, even if they have qualified. Youre not supposed to be making their decisions for them.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Ill try 32 robots.
I already have 30 spots filled out of 32.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
can I have an overview of who entered?
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Andre
Kane
You
Paul
Joey
Liam
Andrew
Danny
-
Virtual Robot Wars
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Since when did I enter Son of Ripper?
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Mark chose it to you AJ, because your robot was qualified for this tournament.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Sorry. I thought Rippo was a typo.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Sun of Rippo and Son of Ripper are two completely different vapourbots. Both of them are comedy bots, with Son of Ripper being the slightly more serious one. :wink: Being as I entered Sun of Rippo, you can gladly use that... although that was when the rules stated we could make everything up. If you are looking for a real vapourbot to enter the tournament, it is probably best to start from scratch. I dont think anyone really understands what is going on here at the moment.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
AJ, do you think you could replace Son of Rippo with Son of Ripper?
-
Virtual Robot Wars
SUN of Rippo. SUN, not Son. :P
And AJ can do whatever he likes.
-
Virtual Robot Wars
Mark, I think we can savely say that your first attempt to start a proper tournament was a failed attempt, in itself nothing to be too ashamed of, but please dont drag this topic any further...
the How to improve-topic is not only there to improve your robots, but also to improve your tournaments :wink:

Precisely why one of us veterans needs to be a moderator so we can do away with these fools. :P
