VRW Series 2 (Again)
Listen everyone. Im very sorry for the mess I caused in VRW Series 2, And Ill redo the tourney, with special side events with equally special names. But first, the intro....
Welcome to the VRW Series 2 Tournament!
Basic FRA Rules Apply
Rules: I need 8 people to enter 4 robots. Here is the way the fights will go:
Round 1: 2x 4-bot melees
Round 2: 2x 1-on-1
Round 3: 1x 1-on-1
Please put your stats like this:
Name:
Weight:
Shape:
Colour:
Dimensions(cm):
Drive:
Locomotion:
Armour:
Speed:
Ground Clearance:
Turning Circle:
Weapon:
Srimech:
There are also special events named after famous robots Which I will drop if you ask:
The Wedge Devolution Flipper Frenzy
The Mass Disctruction Ultimate Full Body Spinner Smash-up
The Killotine: Evo Axe Attack
The Nidhogg Crusher Crunch-Up
The Arena is the Plot Hole Arena:
Plot Hole Arena
This arena is a rather simple 20m x 20m square, with 40kg Hardox hammers in the corners, so shove an opponent in there to do some damage to them. There is a plot hole in the center of the arena, covered so you cant get sucked in. At the left wall, there is a plot hole opener button, which will remove the cover from the plot hole, so you can shove the other bot in.
No House Bots.
Well, youre reading this? You are? Well, stop reading and start entering!

ONE thing
quote:
The Wedge Devolution Flipper Frenzy
calling it Wedge Devo has the side effect that IF Wedge Devo enters, hell be in a favoured position cause the tournament is named after him

VRW Series 2 (Again)
I do seem to recall Pussycat never won the PTT :P
-
VRW Series 2 (Again)
thats true Joey, but I definately dont wanna fight Wedge Devo in a tournament thats already called the Wedge Devo tournament
look at it this way, Mark decided to name his flipper frenzy after a flipper, he couldve chosen Liar, or Seung Mina, the fact that he chose Wedge Devo tells me he rates Wedge Devo above them someway, I wouldnt wanna face Wedge Devo in such tournament :P

VRW Series 2 (Again)
You could of course enter the purpose built DOOM OF WEDGE DEVOLUTION, see how that worked :P

---------------
Name: Blatant Clone :proud:
Weight: 100kg
Shape: 6-wheeled Tornado, including the angled rear to keep in contact with the ground while driving up a wedge
Colour: Pink
Dimensions(cm): 120x80x20
Drive:2 B42-500 Magmotors at 48 volt

Armour:7 mm titanium all around
Speed: 22mph
Ground Clearance:10 mm under the main body, variable clearance under the lifting spikes, with 0 mm as a minimum
Turning Circle: zero
Weapon:A pair of hardox, diamond tipped electric lifting spikes, a lot like the lifting spatula of American SHW Vladiator. These are 25 cm in length and can be lifted downwards which turns them into an active invertible lifting wedge. They can also be raised parallel to the floor, so they can act as a pair of classic ramming spikes. A 100 kg robot driving around at 22 mph is good for 5 kJ of kinetic energy. When this is brought onto a pair of diamond tipped spikes, this might seriously harm some armours.
Srimech: It€™s invertible

My tourney days are over
Thats what you said a while ago Mark.
And since then youve done 3 tournies inlcuing this crap

VRW Series 2 (Again)
Piece De Resistance
Weight: Depends, normally 57.3kg
Dimensions: Vary, see below
Shape: A two layered box, with boggly eyes and a crash helmet on top and a snow shovel sticking out of the front.
Colour: Silver, with red and yellow bits
Drive: Depends
Speed: Depends
Ground Clearance: Depends
Armour: Fibreglass over an old microwave
Weaponry: The snow shovel at the front, spikes at the rear
Notes: This appears on the surface to be the normal Piece De Resistance, the robot which made a brief appearance in series 2 as one of the most fun and sporting entries and failed miserably in the trials...however things have changed. Piece De Resistance is not one robot.
Instead, it is a gestalt entity of several million individual Piece De Resistance robots, each weighing less than a hundredth of a gram, that are capable of forming themselves into any size they wish. Because of this, the capabilities of the robot vary, as it is possible with the nanotechnology and dark forces for it to become the best machine in the entire world, with the best drive motors, the best weaponry power, and the best armour. They react to what the combat environment throws at them, and so can defeat any robot and self right from any position. This also means it is infinitely variable itself, and tiny Piece De Resistances invisible to the naked eye were recently found to have caused the Black Death, while a version 60,000,000 tons in weight was rumoured to have defeated Godzilla in his last takeover attempt of Tokyo before he retired to live off merchandising revenue.
It is speculated that ancient cave paintings in France do not depict the human body and hunting animals, but rather were a signal to other early humans to avoid the area after a fifty foot high Piece De Resistance decimated the population.
And three random realies, please.

I dont even like football...except the RW Series 3 tournament, of course.
I think it would be funny if there was a football tournament featuring all the good battle robots.
-
VRW Series 2 (Again)
I think that was tried once, and we ended up with Timmehs creations with their safety cameras and ten Magmotors running on 6 volts. :proud: Id be up for it though if it was tried again.

VRW Series 2 (Again)
Could have some All Stars teams. Biohazard, Diesector, Hazard, Razer, Vlad The Impaler and Ziggo as the captains, Chaos 2, Nightmare, Toro, Complete Control, Overkill and Son Of Whyachi as the vice captains and Hypno-Disc, Mauler, Minion, Tazbot, Panic Attack, Dr Inferno Jr, Killerhurtz, La Machine, Tornado, Voltronic and Panzer as the rest of the team. The goalies would be clones of Mechadon. Pick your team and go.

VRW Series 2 (Again)
Nah, Im already designing a purpose built team, that breaks at least five rules nobody is going to bother stating :P
