Every week, I will test different machines in similar environments, and compare analyzed results to see how efficient one machine is, and which is better in terms of performance. This is why it is called the Battle of the TPT Machines!

Note: Battle of the TPT Machines is still new, and could use some crew to help make this weekly machine competition better. To join, leave a post here then your occupation. The following occupations are helpful and most needed:

Electronics - If possible, creating measurement devices and putting together electric components that can enhance the accuracy of the competition results.

Data Manager/Handler - Stores result data to keep until the next Saturday (US time), and the suggestions that will be picked by the crew (while being a a first-line defense for spam or ridiculous/impossible suggested comparisons). 

(More required occupations will be opened in the meantime)
How the "Battle of the TPT Machines" works

First, players will leave out their suggestions on which machines must be tested, and what property must be measured. Then, the crew will pick one of the best suggestions to do. They will then test, analyze, gather data and compare them with the other machine, in similar environments. Once they have been fully analyzed, the results will be released on Saturday, US time.

Fighting for your position

The owner of the winning machine will be reminded that his machine has won, and can choose to stamp a unique trophy for putting on his machine's save. Time limit is within 2 days.

Once you have claimed your trophy, the save containing the trophy will be removed (but a stamp will be kept by the Data Manager (or otherwise me) before deleting). The name of the owner, his machine, and what he is good at will now be seen on the "Best Machines" list, and therefore makes the machine more visible for challenge. Once someone challenges you on a kind of performance, and you have a trophy of said performance, you must upgrade your machine to be better than the other, otherwise your machine will be knocked out of the Best Machines list, and you will be advised to remove the trophy from your save (limit to do so is 2 days, failure to do so will send you to the "temporarily banned" list, where suggestions about any of your machines is prohibited for a certain amount of days, which will count down once you remove your trophy, data once again kept in track by the Data Manager (or me)).

Wall of Battles!

Battles of TPT Machines: DEUT production!

FAST DEUT Distiller (doperfectwork) vs. Cold DEUT Machine (PTuniverse)

(Trophies are nullified because the owner of one of the competing machines (in italic) is part of the crew.)

Sorry, but we're going to have to delay the upcoming battle, because we have not recieved suggestions for the week!

Check back later, or you can give a suggestion that will be probably done next week!
