In which case, that's good- as mentioned, I've had a pretty decent amount of success with my Heavyweights in general, so hopefully their showing here will be just as good. But yes, looks like quite a good selection you've chosen. Isn't Whipcoil a Middleweight, though? |

WhipCoil was a HW when entered in C&B5, that's why I count it. |

Ah, that explains something. Though Badnik mentioned something about a list- which one is he referring to, if it's not going to come off as completely blockheaded to ask? |

If you still need an entrant or two, I'll do it. If you've got too many, I'm okay sitting out, as I'm still a little confused from the description of it. |

It's a predicting game. I take Heavyweights from the participants to use for this. You don't have to enter them yourself, you just have to take part in the game. ![]() And I wouldn't intentionally use suck bots. |

I'm not too worried about the bot that gets chosen. HW is usually my strongest weight class. Although how would you determine which version gets used? I mean, outcome would be very different if you used the first version of Pinpoint as opposed to the latest version. RPs or no? Because what I'm getting is that this is like an NCAA betting pool, where we pick our winners, but the games are decided in fair play fashion, unless the mafia's involved, in which case Duke wins again.

No RPs. And I would use the latest or most successful version of the robot, depending on if the latest version had any success. |

Alright, since some people have way too many robots already, I'm gonna include Philip's stuff and knock their stuff down. Which means things are complete! Just let me get the draw up and we can begin. Heats will be posted one-by-one. |

So when are the first results going to be? Because in like an hour or so I'm leaving for Italy and I won't be back for like a week. I wouldn't want to miss out on this because of it. |

If I can get internet during the trip I'll try to check in, yes, but if I don't then what?

I was being somewhat facetious, but I'd be amazed if any hotel location (presuming hotel and not, I don't know, a raft in Venice) doesn't have internet capabilities in this day and age. Then again I don't get to travel places so what do I know?

So... still confused.... how is "predicting" different from "voting" like in a poll tournament, other than we have to pick two victors right now? |

Because the actual robot results are determined by me, and you lot get points based on your predictions. Hence why it's a game and nobody should take the actual robot results seriously. |
