Conglaturations to R01.  I don't mind losing to his bot.  I do mind losing to #6 though.

Thanks, I wasn't sure if I should vote(didn't know if voting for your own entry would be allowed/wouldn't really want to do that, and worried that voting for Mr Bones would make it win. I wouldn't mind seeing Mr Bones on the front page again but at the same time seeing a unique entry miss it by one vote would've been sad).

As for 6, when you first look at it, it does look nice, especially the trumpet(which is made out of custom components?), however then you look at the skeleton and it doesn't even look like a full skeleton head with way too many holes,doesn't even look like it has eyes if it wasn't for the sunglasses.
Splash also doesn't exist and I'm sure that giving it a meme look would've still been possible with a higher quality splash.
So a bot that looks good at first but the more you look at it falls down, also could've had a proper chassis without any clipping.

Mr Bones on the other hand is still nice, I don't fully remember the original but wonder where you got the weight for it. Or was the original a LW?

I do think your bot had a nice concept, just needed a bit more work and a better splash.

The original had a saw weapon on one arm, which I removed to make weight for the glasses.

I mean, in all fairness, at least #6 isn't a re-entry. Isn't this like the 5th time you've re-entered Mr. Bones?

if you're wondering what happened to my splash and why its so pixelated its because I messed up bad when shrinking it down to size.

In all fairness, 6 was ugly.  At least I tried to make mine look good.

Is how I see it anyway.

Really? While I liked the original concept that I had, I found that the final bot could've been a lot better

The Skeleton part of 6 is having some problems, if it wasn't for that then it would've been a good entry I guess.

And yours wasn't a simple reentry, while it wasn't exactly having much that makes it different, it was playing on the fact that it's a reentry and has won two BotM's that way, which made it amazing, definitely would've got my vote.

See, you might have had a better idea in your head, but there's nothing about the bot that looks unfinished, and it's very unique and well-built. You underestimated yourself, I'd say.

So don't hesitate to enter November's BOTM!

True, the released bot might look a bit unfinished on certain parts, but the Splash showed it's good sides, and that's what was voted on in the end. Nice that I won something and I'm surpirsed how fast this got up.
As for BOTM November, it's nice that there's no forced topic but I currently don't have many ideas, will still try to do something and enter BOTM once in a while.

Your bot was great, enjoyed it and the skid steering, just surprised as I thought it would be until the end of the month until it's up(but then it wouldn't really be BoTM anymore)
