Normal building? All glitches? This mean its non-realistic? D:

Normal building? All glitches? This mean its non-realistic? D:

I may be wrong but

Normal Building = normal standards, realistic rules, etc

All glitches are allowed so long as they dont violate the first.. since you can use eFFe, loading and others while being realistic.

either that or ACAMS is letting us go nuts

You have been hanging upsidedown too long......you need to move to the top side!
 
Nothing was said about realistic, except by you guys........I don't build realistic, so rarely will I request it.

Nutso it is!

If G.K clones my SnS
I make a replica
S_R does a crazy design with awesome splash.
Joe does an Anti-Candy bot
Click does a N00b bot
Sparkey does a Art bot
And 123stw does whatever G.K. does....

Then we all get very confused.

BTW I'm making something.

Title: Re: BOTM June 2010
Post by: Naryar on May 07, 2010, 03:21:46 AM
I have my prototype built. Now just to refine it, candy it (I even have an original splash idea in mind :D) and send it...

That robot took over 4 hours to build( getting design right and I had to restart like ten times because of snapper loading so many motors, I also had to snapper load everything in one go, lol parentheses comment is longer than actual post.)

I will send my bot before tomorrow, aka 16 hours or something.
Title: Re: BOTM June 2010
Post by: Meganerdbomb on May 28, 2010, 05:22:20 AM
Just sent mine. The bot was done awhile ago, but I procrastinated on the splash. I just pirated photoshop, so this was my first time using it for more than minor picture editing. I hope it turned out alright. (Sorry, no pinup girls this time. I didn't want it to be too obvious which one is mine.)
Title: Re: BOTM June 2010
Post by: JoeBlo on May 28, 2010, 12:34:17 PM

funny thing is I made about 3 different entries for this (one was DBA's Revenge in my showcase) but the eventual submitted one is the coolest imo

central time is still the same regardless

the one you are referring to is called US Central Time (confusing but not Central Time)

its up to ACAMS of course when he calls it but the thread just said Central Time, Im not trying to be difficult.. I just made a joke and people are jumping on my back so I am justifying my post  ;)

you probably should be more clear when writing times then.. since Europe has a Central Time which is 7 hours different to Americas

GMT is the Time Zone with neither subtraction or addition of hours.. so was always referred to me as the central time zone (as a description, not as the name like the Europe and American ones)
