This is so so restrictive. It's tough enough to make a Stock UHW in my opinion, let alone not letting it/skins/splashes be 'lame' or 'nooby'. I predict 2 or 3 entries..
I might try if the lame/nooby restrictions were not in place as I can't built efficiently, neither can I skin well or make splashes.

>Stock UHW

I give up.

Don't worry, just enter, the noob/lame restrictions are basically for a people like a RedlineM203, that want to enter with stuff like this :

Maybe because it was a complete joke?

[Venko]

Well, no joke bots for this one 
Also, even if I win again, I will not determine the next BotM. A promise!

[RedSawn]

It was a rare stray from being serious with my gaming. Let me have some fun once in a while x)

As for this BOTM, probably won't be able to enter. Got thoughts of what to do but I can barely build to 1200kg, let alone 3000.

[Badnik96]

The only other stock UHW botm had 2 entries: A joke bot and a messy piece of trash. needless to say the joke bot won. I predict the second unanimous BoTM victory in 3 months.

[Mr. AS]

^glad to know you thought my bot was trash

i might enter this if i had enough attention span to make something more than 800 kg

[090901]

I predict the second unanimous BoTM victory in 3 months.

I predict you are going to be wrong......

[Pwnator]

You know, if you guys are having a hard time, multibots are allowed.

[Flying_Chao]

I plan to enter. It should be obvious to everyone which one is mine, but should be fine otherwise.

[Naryar]

Stock UHW ? Hell yeah. I may enter if I find the motivation.

  - Don't seek for loopholes.

ohohohohoho i am going to have a field day with this rule.

[J]

>No noob bots
Why?

I mean, you can't really eat up a lot of weight to get it qualified unless the chassis is awkwardly large.
Hell, its Ultra weight, so they need all the perks n' junk they can get in order to make use of all that weight.
Not complaining  or anything, just saying that makes it a little counter productive.
Either way, I might enter this.

[Venko]

You know, if you guys are having a hard time, multibots are allowed.

  - The bot must be between 3000 and ∞ kg.

A NO NO! Even with a lack of a line defining this, it's forbidden by the red text, since it's "bot" not "bot/bots" or "bots".
Take this rules literally and don't seek for a loopholes.
As for Naryar, for example, using a square extenders to gain weight instead of red/black ones it's LEGAL, it's not a loophole. Also, using other cheap tactics as unnecessary thousand batteries and so, for example, ARE OK. You can use cheap tricks in the components choice, but still have to make your bot BATTLE efficient (NOT WEIGHT EFFICIENT).
Feel free to ask what is legal and what not.

[Pwnator]

I could have sworn I saw a "/s" there.

...must be the wind.


Still can't enter though, sadly. Too much effort and too little time. :<

[Venko]

...Still can't enter...

Don't worry  , You will just save some lost for nothing time. I don't want to discourage people or something, but do You all realize, that I'm famous for my UHWs, and trying to beat me will be like trying to beat Ianh in a AW contest... If You get my point

I'm easily beatable, just need more entries :P
