It's time to prepare for the third annual Botober event! As always, the challenge is simple: build a robot every day (or as many days as possible) for the whole of October, using the official Inktober prompts at the bottom of this post, and post them here for others to look at!

Day 1
Titanium 5, It's a 4 wheel drive thanks to the tm3r's in the chassis. Very fast considering it has a great grip

DSL-S exists.
Also this is supposed to represent a shark. I think you should be able to tell.
I don't know how to get it to not look like that when I post it. Sorry.

[announcer voice] "ROCKET!"

  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

It's uncontrollably fast, and there's probably some clipping issues considering how small and tightly-packed it is, but I'm pleased I managed to get something done.

I'll post my pre-built Day 3 bot in the morning and then I'll be going on holiday, so I may not get any more bots done until Day 11. We'll see.

Day 3: Bulky
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

If you're wondering what I did for day 2, the answer is nothing bc I couldn't get inspired. I barely thought up a basic ass SHW wedge for bulky, but it came out somewhat solid and seems to work pretty damn well, so I'm not too mad about it

Yeah I've pretty much resorted to just doing certain days to preserve my sanity. Meant to build this yesterday but w/e it's here now. It's a Crossfire clone with the supports on an axle, so it's unstable as ****. Fun machine, though

Middle: Middleweight Has different modes of attack, a drum that represents the walls and the spinner that represents watchtower (correct me if i'm wrong)
Right: Designed to look like a spacecraft, this Cruiser can do so good amounts of damage, its weird shape makes it stand out

"Sleep" = A CW, Originally going to be added in pokken but didn't because someone else entered it.
"Chef" = Secret Formula, CW, That's a burger alright
"Rip" =  Shred Challenge, HW, Iv'e seen enough compilations to see where this is going
"Dig" = Dream Drill, CW, Probably the first time I made a face spinner, so props for that
"Buddy" = Rare Pet, LW, Petunia-Inspired Crusher. It does a lot of damage for it too

 I was a bit late for this but at last I have completed
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
Home Grown Dogs - It's an Urchin with a bit of flipper power
DJ - Apparently this is considered a juggler by many, It deals suprisingly amounts of damage to bots
Here are the final bots that will complete my BOTM run for all
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
Profily Drone - Basically just take time theft but make it have horizontals on it's sides, decent pusher all around
Armored Shoe- Made it to look like rubber shoes armored with metal, It has way more ramming potential with it's 4WD drive
King Of Yellow- Has a mask on it to reveal itself, can dish out massive massive damage with its Dual Perm weapon
Fable of Bugs- Side Crusher+Hammer Combo, Its Hammer can do so serious damage on par with Entry Point.

Woo, I guess that's over isn't it? Now gonna prepare for Orc Wars.
