I thought of that, and tried to think of a way to introduce that into this tournament, but it seems like it would be too chaotic, like if a big wheel broke, it would send the bot flying.

Exactly. If that happened Spike would be completely immobilised.

Give me a couple of days to actually make a robot though. I think the problem is that the large skills base that was here in 2009 has gone, leaving a few of us who want it back and a shitload of people that only want to make fucking marble races!
Maybe if nobody else's joining you could run it as a league point based system rather than a a tournament? That could work better with 6 people?

I do marble races AND robot tournaments... Am I good or bad? And some of my fave youtubers are marble race makers, like Jack Spero or Luka.

I've only built like 1 or 2 marble races, and they both sucked so I just concentrated on other things. Such as engine-powered orange crates like the one in my profile pic

@ Benjii: Can't wait to see your bot! So far I think that my bot beats every other ones on a flat ground. I hope yours will kick mine!

Well, speaking of marble races... I think every "black designed" marble race are useless because they are ALL the same. It looks like a fashion phenomen. No mechanical interesting thing, no originality. I dont want to be mean.
But look at this:

It was my first "serious" marble race.

The second one which has some problems with algodoo... It was designed with Phun.


And this which the beginning of my 3rd Marble machine.

The only marble races I ever built were for a convention where I did a booth on Algodoo.

This is my entry.

It's been a while since people join the Algobots tournament...

-VietCreator

Oh, and Cryteck, can you make 2 algobots? If not, can you pick a bot you would want to compete in the tornament?

Thanks,

-VietCreator

No, I don't think you can enter more than one. I think you can build more than one, but not enter all of them.

Also, learn how to use the 'edit post' button, it's your friend.

Ok, thanks pnvv!

Uuh... Is this still on?

Yeah, It's still on, We just need 3 more players and then the tournament starts.

Technically VeitCreator made one too, so we only need 2.

I sure hope Kilinich doesn't show up, he'll obliterate us all

Yeah, he would but I think that no scripting is allowed, so that means Kilinich can't make any awesome weapons that would obliterate us like heat rays, gravity guns, liquidfy guns or something like that. It wouldn't be fair is there was scripting so yeah...

Well, I think there should be a battlebots competition where scripting was allowed. Imagine all the crazy scripted weapons people could dream up....

I believe this contest is, um, deceased.

Probably.

This is me waiting for the 3 remaining participators...

Impressive grammar for a dead guy!

hope it can quality.(any problem tell me.)

Is this contest still on? Is this contest still in search for 8 competitors?
If yes, then here is my Algobot:

Wait... GUYS!! WE HAVE ENOUGH!!!

I counted everyone up, and counting me, we have 8 entries! WE CAN BEGIN!!

Yay! Let's wait till crytek saw this.
Edit: I like your reaction above <3 (Unless you delete the post).

I was excruciatingly bored today, so I built another bot. I saw another bot in tournament #3 that was VERY similar, and I wonder if the concept is still legal?

And Crytek, if you see this, THIS is the one I want to use!

I also sent Crytek a PM telling him there are 8 entries and we can start!
