There was a link to Sonny's youtube channel in his signature on Robot Wars Wiki, I discovered the game through that. On one of his videos he chatted to GF93, asking him if he was entering 'Badnik's Replica Wars'. I googled dat and came to GTM from there. Lurked a bit, then joined up.

When I Google searched robot arena 2 after I bought the game on Ebay back in late 2008, but I did not join the forum until 2010.

I came from the official ra2 forum after it died. Anyone with a different answer is a n00b.

Says the forum's laughingstock.
Really, I never found Jonzu to be all that funny?
He's not funny, he's just a joke.
Too bad I didn't find a photo of you. It would've fitted in here perfectly.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

GTM is a joke, and Jonzu is the punchline.

I came here via the RA2 forums too, but how I discovered that is a pretty interesting story.  I had played the 5 Robot Wars games and was disappointed by their limitations; I think I saw RA2 on Ebay occasionally but I ignored it because it wasn't Robot Wars.  I'd heard about how the legendary Mauler was too dangerous for Robot Wars, so it got me searching for videos of it.  Keep in mind this was 2006, Youtube was in its infant stages, so nothing was there.  What I did find was this.  In addition to getting my Mauler fix, I saw the Tornado Mer vs Particle Accelerator fight to which they remarked "reminds me of Robot Arena 2."  In this video, Tornado Mer systematically chops off PA's wheels.  That got my attention; the wheels don't fall off like that in the RW games.  I bought the game swiftly and found the forums while searching for info because my bots sucked at fighting.

I'd been aware of the game and community since it was released but never got the game because I couldn't pay for it. Then a few years back, randomly found a download and played it. Been here since.

I was looking for a robotic blow job machine to pleasure me and google search results seemed to push robot arena to the top so I clicked on it and was pleasantly disturbed by what I found here. FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP :dance:
