[snoruntpyro]

i'll take hard names please

[Sorel]

I can't wait for the LP

[FrozenQuills]

gonna go with medium names again.
is lunalua allowed?
(this looks super rad)

[spittySynthyHands]

Well, this looks like fun.

[castlepokemetroid]

Oh man, compete against raocow? Do want.

I know you stated what the tournament conditions would be in the video, but could you type them up and add them to the opening post? I'd like to test my creations under the same conditions that the tournament matches will have.

[Rednaxela]

I believe what was said was:

each round, 2 copies of each bug, no IFF codes, large arena, default settings, max 1500 ticks, winner is highest score (combined score of both copies) after 3 matches

top 5 go to: gigantic arena, 3 rounds of a 10 bug FFA

Now, there's a decent bit of ambiguity in terms of things like what "large" and "gigantic" mean, and also what the structure of the rounds are. Like are the initial rounds (prior to the top-5) also a larger FFA, or smaller battles in some of round robin?

In any case, this should be an interesting event.

So I'm going to be a stick in the mud here, but I can't help but wonder why this contest thread was placed in the gazebo instead of in the contest center.

[Le Neveu de Rameau]

Isn't your gazebo infested with beetles? If not, you're clearly doing something wrong.

[castlepokemetroid]

Isn't your gazebo infested with beetles? If not, you're clearly doing something wrong.

Actually, if your gazebo wasn't infested with some sort of bug, wouldn't that actually mean you're doing something right?

[Willhart]

I hope MaRB contest will get a lot of entrants. The streams should be fun to watch.

If hanging out with a bunch of bugs (also known as a "bugnch") doesn't sound like your idea of a good time, this may not be your sort of contest.

[Willhart]

It's good to remind people about this from time to time.

About what? Was I supposed to remember something?

About the contest. The submission time is quite long.

[Penguin Emperor]

Sooooo yeah, I made a super awesome bug! Sure, it hasn't won a single test match yet, but I'm sure it's saving it's energy for the real thing! I hope to just take out one other bug, to be honest. The programming seems to be easier than I thought it would be, but then again I could be missing something and/or lots of somethings. Either way, I'm really excited for this!

[raekuul]

/me makes a programming error and produces a brad bug instead.

EDIT: Have a bad rug.

I figured out how to make my bug do a thing. Mainly related to variables.

[Willhart]

Only like a week left now. Got to pick up the pase.

[Kevsoft]

Totally forget about that, whelp mine will be a dumb one. Maybe my KISS-Bug has a chance (Keep it short and simple)

[MECHDRAGON777]

There's still PLENTY of time - you got two days left! Making a bug will take less than an hour - and you'll learn programming!

I'd definitely personally appreciate if you participated peeps! <3

How many people actually submitted?

Edit: All I need to do is come in 5th or higher. I hope not to many people submit... (I have my reasons).

[Willhart]

More people means more fun.

[Clyceer]

I'm more people.

Good luck to everyone. :)

[Xirix]

Submitted last night... I HOPE I WIN.

[RedMageSusie]

27th place, here I come!
