Id like to see a flying robot BOTM, or a weaponless BOTM based on who has the coolest chassis. Or a walker BOTM.

As an idea~

Robot has to look like a household appliances
And as an added twist, every bot can only have 2 wheels, and have part of its design dedicated to what it looks like, outside of paintjobs.
And then for a list of appliances you can do, just stuff like blenders, toasters, etc, just something that requires a lot of effort.

And then DSL, for added rage.

Or here an idea-
BOTM, awkward chassis style.
Basically someone makes a weird chassis that still buildable and gives it a legitimate weight class for what sort of robot it should be, and we just go from there.

I know we've had two stock BOTMs so far, but what about Stock IRL, any weight class, with relaxed rules on overlap (basically overlap is allowed if it's within the chassis)? I'm sure we'll see some neat designs.

stock irl = absolute oxymoron
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.

Of course one of the only IRL-builders suggests an IRL competition.
....
Unless of course, by IRL-bot, they let you make anything that resembles a battlebot(lol legos), and could enter that.

That's more or less what I meant. Basically if it is similar to an actual robot that has competed in any competition, it counts. That means that even some cheatbot components are allowed - there was a Robot Wars entry that was basically an RC airship with a net, so hover engines would work.

Not everyone can mod. I can't make a decent 3D model if my life depended on it. Some people can't code.

True... and in fact I consider myself a decent graphic artist when it comes to video game graphics.

...

Maybe that isn't a good idea...
