I feel bad that I didn't enter. None of these are fantastic. I think I'll vote for 5.

I had an idea for this, but I couldn't get around the rule of seven.

I really like #2, even if the bot isn't that Christmassy on its own. Looks like something from War of the Worlds, and gets my vote on that basis, as well as I have a soft spot for the Doctor Who episode with the killer Christmas trees.
Wish I had time to make an entry this month, but I couldn't make anything I was happy with. Hopefully I'll enter next month.

#1: I'm guessing that's Emergency in gift wrap, which just screams lazy.
#2: Voted for it. I like the fact that it's also a transformer. I'm guessing Domanating built this.
#3: Not bad, I could go for some hot cocoa right now. Dunno who built it.
#4: Obviously playzooki. That anime girl is pretty distracting to the actual bot though.
#5: Cool toy car replica. Redline probably built this since the skin a giveaway.

I agree with you Maz. Maybe there was a reason that BOTM went on hiatus for 11 months.

2 and 5 are the standouts, in my opinion.  I went for 5 because I thought the splash was cleaner.

Here's my hot opinions on the entries-

#1 is literally just a reskin of a stock AI bot.
#2 is a clusterfug. I can't imagine it working very well at all.
#3 is meh, and the splash is kind of crap.
#4 has my favorite 2hu on it so it's gr8 out of 8. Points off for blurry .jpg quality though.
#5 looks the best and makes good use of the ironforge components.

2 is best. And yes, it looks like a martian tripod so that's a plus.

1 shouldn't even be legal because it is just a reskin of emergency.
3 is OK, i guess. But it's not cool enough for botm.
4 does not deserve any comment.
5 is neat but it's not christmas themed, so shouldn't be legal either.

ez win for #2.

5 Looks awesome but sadly it's not really Christmas themed. I still love it because car-related. <3

It's a close call between #2 and #5 for me, but I'm giving my vote to #2.  Shame that neither of the bots themselves are really Christmas themed, but they're still cool.

Voting 2#: Why? Its much, much more of a fantastic model to me.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM Dec 2014
Post by: Badnik96 on November 27, 2014, 06:58:36 PM
the only two good ones arent even that christmassy ;-;

I miss Click's awesome stuff.

I'm gonna vote for 5 because Domanating's won enough of these damn things and the car is soo clean.

Finally someone other than me manages to win when I participate. Also my presence in a BOTM is becoming too annoyingly obvious, lol
I planed on making my entry more Christmas like by having a small Christmas tree deploying and sticking out on the top. But I had only Sunday to make it happen and I was short on time so I hoped the splash could help.

Congrats Redline! I voted for your car  :mrgreen:

I voted for the car as well; it was like what I was trying to do (ad catalog kinda thing) but better.

Also, thanks to all who voted for the mug!  I probably could have worked on the splash a bit more.

Oh god, I just came back to see the results of a voting war. I voted for Domanating just now to see the result. 21-20. Oh jesus.

This victory does come with some guilt - it's true, the car is very loosely Christmasy. Without the splash, it could have been for any time of year. Then again, I guess that's true with any toy.
I'll probably upload the car for everyone to download, along with the Photoshop file for the skin.

Well, I guess putting less effort in a BOTM entry gets the same result, but as I look at the results from the BOTM Ideas thread, I have a great idea this time.*chuckles maniacally with an evil grin.*

I also believe this is Redline's first BOTM win. Congrats man!
Title: Re: Vote BOTM Dec 2014
Post by: RedSawn on December 01, 2014, 04:47:39 PM
Yep, it is. I think it's my third entry? Or it might be second. I might be confusing the 'first' entry for Ian's AW stock bots competition a while back.
