Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

[death robotics]

Hey there everybody. This is just a fun minor tournie you can use to have fun

I need 8 people to 16. Thats right 16 robots!!! Reason being *Points at the title* You have 11 players on the pitch and
5 substitutes.

Rules: All must be heavyweight. But the goalkeeper can be any weight
1st to score 10 goals. Or has the most goals after the buzzer sounds. Goes through
If a bot gets destroyed. It will be classified as Injured and unable to compete in the next match. So bring a few
reserve players just in case

P.S. this idea 1st started off as a vapourbot world cup. But i thought id do this instead, cos i wont find 32 people for
the old idea :shock:

So..... *Sits back in a chair whistling*

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

Firstly, can we team up with people?

If so, anyone want to team up with me?

[death robotics]

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

right-o, I have a few questions...

is it allowed to design robots just for this tournament?

what are the sizes of the pitch (roughly), and of the goals? is it gonna be a normal football pitch or smaller?

[death robotics]

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

Ok Martijn ill answer your questions

Bots can be built specifically for this event. The pitch is the battlebox
The goal is this Just to let you know
its the big one at the back

and Martijn, your spot is reserved

[majinb]

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

thanks Lian

still how big is that goal? I can live with a rough estimate, but I cant tell from the picture and for that matter, how big is the ball? and do normal football rules apply? offside, fouls etc?

[death robotics]

Re: Crazy bots: Football extravaganza

Ok to answer your questions.

Im now changing the goal back to the one used in series 3 of Robot Wars. The ball is the size of your average
football. The are no fouls, but there is offsides though.

Ok the deadline for entries will be next Tuesday, so i can get the draws set up

[death robotics]
