I don't know if anyone responded to this but the key words here are Weapon Armor, which is a calculation separate from regular Armor. Basically discs, blades, and other spinning weapons Weapon Armor is calculated as Armor + 4, while uhh I think Shell and Ring spinners get Armor + 2. Self destruct rules only count for spinners afiak so I don't think it quite matters for the other weapon types (but just for clarification, for non spinning weapons, the Weapon Armor = Armor, unless the Weapon Power > 5. I think). |

Some updates for those who may not browse Reddit an awful lot: Arena is being made by a writer, should be ready to go here soon. I'm a moron and declared it a double elimination tourney without reading a few posts from people wanting something else so we will probably go with something else(really hoping for a world cup group format personally) and then we will get it together. So to those who got my PM, disregard that little bit. I'm still pretty well learning as I go on how to hold these events. It'll get much smoother as it grows, I promise. PS: Still time to sign up! Check out the main post for details. |

That'd be awesome. Always room for more! The writers for this tournament seem really excited to be doing this and we have some crazy designs entered so far. I think it's gonna be a hit.

Hey guys! Another update!! Arena: We will be using the ABC Battlebox sans hell raisers. Saws, hammers, screws, and ring out will still be available. Also, we are having a few practice fight cards with 2 or 3 fights a week leading up to the start of the tournament. Feel free to participate in that. We have officially less than a month to go until Hammerfall kicks off! The bots entered so far are all kinds of crazy. People have also entered some of the most unique designs I've seen in a long time. We already have 35 sign ups. I truly hope that we can break 40 by the time the tournament starts. Registration ends September 12th at midnight. If you haven't registered yet: I hope to see you there! Edited by Toxic, Aug 14 2015, 02:26 PM.

Week 1 practice results have been posted! Great first week with great fights! Our writers are slowly getting the kinks out of everything and settling in to their roles. Although I had to moonlight as a writer this time around due to college move ins, I feel that everything went very well. Another ARCer is fighting this week. Lets see what happens! Also, if anybody wants to be a mod for Hammefall to work solely on coding and CSS to make our board pretty, please let me know ASAP. |

Not sure I'm following, but because he has a crazy as shit weapon with little armor? Like I said this is my first time running one of these, so I may be wrong on things from time to time. I hope ya'll will call me out or explain things if something is wrong--be it from me or from other people. This way everybody eventually gets on the same page and everything runs smoothly for the rest of this tournament and future tournaments(and with any luck when people come over here for tournaments) Edit: Saw your post on Reddit. Disregard this post. You explain it pretty well. Edited by Toxic, Aug 23 2015, 03:31 PM.

I wasn't able to catch the thing above unfortunately, so would someone be able to link me to the brackets and seedings and whatnot? Thanks. |

Tried all the links to it, but for some reason, it's not working. Is Challonge down or something? |

Challonge is working fine for me. It could be your browser, or a firewall problem, perhaps. The upshot is you and I are in the same group.

Perhaps, so I'll have a look around and see if I can sort something out. Still, Cryoseism and Dreadnought in the same group, interesting. Just try not to catch fire this time.

Badnik is not writing, as far as I'm aware, so I think I'm fine.

Round 2 is a go! We have a few ARC vets in this round again, so be sure to check that out if you haven't yet! Week 1 was wild. The fight card this week should produce some even better results. Thanks for participating, ya'll! |
