Everybody must build from THIS CHASSIS (click to download)

The winner will have their bot splash posted on the WIKI main page

#2 - The bot must be STOCK HW and best if most weight is used
#3 - You CAN use AI parts
#4 - You CAN NOT modify the Chassis in any way
#5 - You can skin the components and chassis to match

I see that stacking blacks is a must with this chassis... That pretty well rules me out

I sense a HS fest.

Edit after Sage: and yeah, stack a CB in two blacks...

Sage · « **Reply #3 on:** September 07, 2009, 06:24:58 PM »

wow acams. you're making us stack 2 blacks and CB. I'm not gonna waste a day trying to do that, and I'm not gonna cheat either.

Horrible chassis IMO. :/

Expect no entry form me unless you raise the chassis 2 notches.

i have stacked a cb halfway in the chassis poking out of the top... but that was once.

Sage, you must learn.

Any faggots who build a gay-style HS or cheat...then you should be banned.

ACAMS · « **Reply #6 on:** September 07, 2009, 09:19:03 PM »

I will change it to MW if it will make it easier.

Sage · « **Reply #8 on:** September 07, 2009, 11:01:47 PM »

nah its fine. i have decided to participate anyways, because i realized that learning to stack 2 blacks + cb is something i need to do.

sorry about the earlier rant type thing.

ACAMS · « **Reply #9 on:** September 07, 2009, 11:17:31 PM »

I spent hours on that chassis, you can spend a few minutes making possibly one of your best bots with it!

What do you call a gay-style HS ?

Anyways, i'm in... but if i can't stack the goddamn CB in 2 blacks...

ACAMS · « **Reply #11 on:** September 08, 2009, 08:11:43 AM »

I rarely use 2 blacks in my HW bots......by the time your batteries are drained, your opponent is dead or you have lost most of your weapons.
Besides, this bot just has to look mean, not necessarily fight good, as nobody will see it fight (unless you want to all send your bot file and have me fight them too.

Depends. Would you rather marry a beautiful woman that screws up everything she touches or an ugly but very skilled one ?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #13 on:** September 08, 2009, 09:36:14 AM »

hmm... :P lol

I guess we have to look for a happy medium

Pwnator · « **Reply #14 on:** September 08, 2009, 09:39:27 AM »

That is one tiny chassis! I doubt I'll ever stack 2 blacks the CB in one spot and 2 snappers/servos in the other with such a small chassis. Oh well, I might enter this one (and no, I won't enter a HS :P). :D

That is a no brainer.....a beautiful woman that screws everything.

I can assure you that 2 snapper II's do indeed stack in the alloted space.

For some reason I expected that. I dunno why. o_O

Yeah I know it's possible. I'm just saying it might be impossible for me to do it given the tight schedule. Oh well, time to perfect the setup. :D

RedSawn · « **Reply #17 on:** September 08, 2009, 01:21:58 PM »

This one's ruled well well out for me. Stacking abillity isn't enough to even get an AW out of it.

Naryar · « **Reply #18 on:** September 08, 2009, 01:48:13 PM »

Good luck pulling a successful popup out of this chassis...

ACAMS · « **Reply #19 on:** September 08, 2009, 01:56:35 PM »

The chassis was for my MW tournament bot, but I will make a HW out of it and enter this contest too!
