so you went for HW after that ? hmm I will have to think abut this one

I thought we would have a theme or something at least.  Just build a HW bot seems a bit boring if you ask me.

I guess if I made a DSL HW sometime this month I can make a splash and submit it in.

I managed to upload my entry by getting the link from the previous BOTM. I did remove the AI control board and replace it wih the micro one.

I hope I can win this. My idea isn't bad, but I probably could have executed it better.
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: russian roulette on December 07, 2009, 02:23:29 PM
My bot is done and my design ended up working. Now for the splash....
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: Sparkey98 on December 07, 2009, 02:35:15 PM
so ACAMS, does that mean no to my rediculous idea? :(  and just a quik question to anyone reading this, Is it true there is going to be a robot arena 3? :bigsmile:
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: lloopp D lloopp on December 07, 2009, 02:38:27 PM
To your last question,no.
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: ACAMS on December 07, 2009, 03:38:47 PM
First question is NO....Robot Arena and DSL are too easy to get, there is no excuse for not already having it.
And you email service blocked my email I sent to you.

this bot of the month will be a nice change if everyone who says they will enter does, the last couple haven't had a whole lot of entrys,

I have something very special in the workshop for such an occasion :P

Post by: Doomkiller on December 07, 2009, 09:13:50 PM
Don't worry, I only need to make a splash now.
Wait, I suck at splashes....
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: 123savethewhales on December 07, 2009, 09:40:32 PM
Question, reskinned components are allow right?  I am not sure rather or not I would need to but just want to ask beforehand.
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: JoeBlo on December 07, 2009, 09:44:07 PM
re skinning is a common allowance in BOTM

look back at some of my entry's, I skin a lot if not all parts

Can we please put a forum hit on RR? At least until he changes the annoying blinking...(calms self) *stuff* in his avatar and signature.
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: JoeBlo on December 08, 2009, 08:46:11 AM
lol, moving signatures do get annoying.

the avatar wasn't bad shame about the colours (I made the original one :P) but the sponge bob meme is dying out now

Not at all, but someone might drag your sorry ass redirect you promptly to the last BOTM threads to looks at the splashes and get ideas from them.

Only 3 entries so far, I guess you guy's are waiting untill the last minute.....which is OK, because you have 6 days.
 
I just like to see lots of entries   ☺
Title: Re: BOTM Jan 2010
Post by: Naryar on December 26, 2009, 09:14:53 AM
My current splash is too compact for my taste (not enough pic size to work with :P).

I might re-do it if i am motivated enough, if not i'll send it just like that.

I might not make the deadline at this rate.
