Title: Badnik96 vs Jack Daniels (Jack Daniels Wins)
Post by: Badnik96 on February 16, 2011, 07:50:10 PM
Me and Jack decided to have a small battle to decide our little "rivalry" from the past. :P

DSL MW
Realistic rule (DSL realism)
no metal hinge wedges
Replica Wars arena

I'd like someone neutral to host, but I can if need be.

You can't. I can, however. = D

Hmm...

Even if Badnik consistently showed more fight-worthy designs than Jack, Jack's the more cunning of the two by a good margin, so I say Jack wins.

Of course if he decides to enter again a candy bot, he will probably lose.

Haha, candy bot. Nooooo way.  I am going to take this match pretty seriously.  Badnik has always been my competition rival.  Every time I enter a tournament it seems like I get matched up against him at some point.

This will be fun.  I will start building this weekend.

I already have a prototype for this, not too good yet though.

So GK is hosting this? I have a strange, new and hopefully killer concept for this

Yup. Looks like GK will be the host.  I have a couple of bots in the works, but nothing that makes me happy yet.  Daytona 500 is on in appx 1 hour... so I wont be working on anything till later this eve.  I would imagine you understand.  :D

"In order to settle an old score, Badnik challenges Jack Daniels in a battle of steel! Will Badnik uncork Jack in the arena, or will Jack use his cunning to outwit and drive all over Badnik? Only one walks away the victor in the battle between two old rivals, known simply as THE SCRUMPY SHOWDOWN"

Thanks! I like to try and be as hammy as possible when I do do that, with puns and overdramatic comments on the events unfolding   :beer:

Can't build anything ATM because I'm at my grandma's and I don't have DSL over here. I have a nice bot right now and I'll AI it and send it off ASAP.

Had too much going on this evening. Will work hardcore on my bot tomorrow after work.

GAH! I have spent all evening (like nearly 6 hours straight working on bots) and my current builds have not fared well in testing.

I won't have a decent bot until next week at this rate. I gotta start packing my bags for a trip up North near Robosh4rkland.

Sorry for the delay, this gives Badnik a ton of extra time to fine tune his bot.  Hope this is ok.  :P
Title: Re: Badnik96 versus Jack Daniels (Battle)
Post by: Jack Daniels on February 28, 2011, 03:59:42 PM
Triple Post FTW.  :P 

Finally got a decent bot put together.  Ready to sent off if Badnik is ready.  How is it going with you?

RR3000 seems like a well designed machine. Which one built it.

Oh wow that match was so close. It could have gone either way. I will dig my bot out and put it in the exchange in about an hour.  I'll update this post with the file name and whatnot. Excellent match, I appreciate facing off against my arch rival.  :D

Edit: Correction... will put it up tomorrow-ish. Something came up.

Jack, that is a beautifully constructed bot there. Might even bump my builders block.

Thanks Robo!  Any ideas or improvements you have for the bot are appreciated if you want to give it a look.

The wedge is insanely awesome due to the added downforce of the tail pushing against the ground.  My biggest beef with the bot is that I don't like how weak/unprotected the weapons motor is.  Might have to figure something out with that.

I just got a free moment before going back to work.  Uploaded the bot.
