Wait a second #7 doesn't have a shot of the insides

Just watched #4's video.

...Why has #4 got a face on his butt?

4 is the best IMO.

Was gonna vote 4 cos I thought it had a SFTW cannon, but meh. Still pretty cool but I think I'll vote 8.

....Why did Entry 2 have to note it has Comic Sans font?

I voted 4, btw...

8 is the best IMO.
Also, 7 is a waste of an entry IMO.

It doesn't even show insides, nor was it actually made by anyone.

I voted #4.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: R0B0SH4RK on November 28, 2011, 01:34:06 PM
#4 because MINI SFTW YES.

Probably would've voted for #3, but I didn't because Click probably built it the splash is too dark for a holiday-themed bot.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: That Robot is a Spy! on November 28, 2011, 01:38:13 PM
My opinions and predictions:
1: Too generic, not a lot of effort but it's okay. Predicted result: 6th (Builder: Kurt Wylde)
2: It's good, but looks like a last minute entry. Weapons look okay. Predicted results: 5th (Builder: TX?)
3: This one is very good, like the lights. Lots of effort in this. Predicted result: 3rd (Builder: Click)
4: I like it, but it's just not good enough to win in my books. Will probably win. Predicted result: 1st (Builder: JD)
5: Virtually no effort put into this at all. Multibot idea is OK though. Predicted result: 7th (Builder: Don't know)
6: It's cool but not really christmassy. Predicted Result: 3rd (Builder: NFX)
7: What is this? What a waste of an entry. Predicted Result: 8th (Builder: Really don't know this one)
8: My personal favourite. Love the weaponry and looks. Predicted Result: 2nd (Builder: Sage)

#4 is easily the best robot I have ever seen in any BoTM ever.

But I voted 2, because I want to see someone shot in the foot :3
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: J on November 28, 2011, 03:29:14 PM
Multibot idea-
The splash says its 3 instances of the same robot.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Jack Daniels on November 28, 2011, 03:30:29 PM
Voted for Sages bot #6.

So many awesome entries for this! #7 is ghetto though...
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Fracture on November 28, 2011, 04:10:35 PM
I wonder if we'll get more than 3 this year...  and I wonder what else I can do.  I've already done a snowman, a nutcracker, and a gingerbread bot.  Running out of ideas...
 
I'll think of something though, even if it's just a gift-wrapped SFTW.
*Looks at #4 and #7*

Hell, you could even do a holiday-wreath shell-spinner and it would still count.
*Looks at #8*

A christmas tree FBS and BOTM is yours
*Looks at #3*

lol@people being so desperate for ideas so as to take some from the pre-discussion thread. Unless the ones who suggested the ideas actually made their corresponding entries, but that would be telling everyone which entry you built. :o

Suddenly I feel like Click made all the entries. Seriously, they all look like his work!

I like #8. Not sure how much building skill it required though since I don't play DSL, but at least the skinned components look like they should've taken some work. Random name is random.

#3's video is epic because it uses a song that I've actually heard before! :D (and I don't mean the tune, I've heard the actual arrangement)
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011

Probably #2 as well.

Anyway, I like  #6 the best. Bear Claws=Awesomeness

Voted 8#. Looks cool and combat effective.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Somebody on November 28, 2011, 05:49:13 PM
Unless #7 is razer, it shouldn't be counted

#4 would be amazing with a hi-res skin, and the splash doesn't show that the feet stick out because they blend in with the splash, but it's a nice touch. #3's lights are brilliant also, but I'm going with 4.

#1 - Would be better if there was actually something IN the present, instead of just an empty box.
 
#2 - I can see the votes, you know, Badnik.  And I know you didn't actually vote for it... someone is going on Santa's naughty list.
 
#3 - Great AI'ing and beautiful to watch in action but should have spent a few more minutes on the splash.
 
#4 - What it lacks in combat ability and Christmas-ness, it makes up for in creativity and humor.  Probably going to win (this is without looking at the votes).
 
#5 - The concept would work better as a train-bot with engine, freight car full of presents, and caboose... as is, it's not that interesting.
 
#6 - What is this I don't even.  How is it even built?
 
#7 - No comment.
 
#8 - Pretty awesome work but it really should show more angles and/or some battle shots.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Meganerdbomb on November 29, 2011, 09:36:14 AM
I'm guessing #4 is Click's, since he said something about building a gift wrapped STFtW. J built #5. #7 has no insides pic and is not an original creation; it should be disqualified, not that it's gonna get any votes.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Badnik96 on November 29, 2011, 04:12:43 PM
huh? You must have been seeing things Click, I voted for number 2 :gawe:

#4 - Jack Daniels
#5 - J
#6 - Fracture
#7 - Kurt Wylde
#8 - Conraaa
Title: Re: Vote BOTM December 2011
Post by: Fracture on December 01, 2011, 09:23:43 PM
lolKurt Wylde. His entry got 1 vote I WONDER WHO DID THAT

#8 was Conraaa = Not expected

MNB impersonated J's splashes. :P Except J doesn't build DSL.

And one last thing, NFX actually didn't enter for once? Whoa.

Congrats yet again JD! You deserved the win.

2nd place? I'm happy with that.
My vote went to three, purely for the video alone.

Congratulations to JD. Well done to you.

Also, congratulations to Conraaa, you're really starting to make a name for yourself with stuff like this. Nice work.

One last thing, I didn't enver, because I had no ideas. :gawe:

Hey wow! Thanks for the votes guys.

I think a bunch of the entries in Dec BOTM were awesome.  Fracture's bot got my vote.  I seriously lol'd when I saw it.  XD

So, here is my Christmas present to you all.

https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Exchange/DSL_SHW/Jack%20Daniels_Nary%20Gets%20A%20Prezzie.bot (https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Exchange/DSL_SHW/Jack%20Daniels_Nary%20Gets%20A%20Prezzie.bot)

Edit: (its on the exchange if you dont trust the link... you can nab it from there :P )

Download the bot... wreak havok... or AI it and destroy it with delight.

Personally, I would love to see vids of that sucker getting epic-destroyed by some world class DSL bots.   :gawe:

Oh, and here is the BMP reskin of the disc if you want to enjoy the bot in all its glory.

So you are basically giving away an effigy of myself to destroy by others ? Thank you jack, I appreciate the kind gesture.

Also going to be great for my respect overall.

My spidey-sarcasm senses are tingling.

I give you full permission to download it and make revisions to turn it into a killing machine.  :D

Don't worry about your respect level, you are doing a solid job being a moderator and that is getting you the respect you deserve.  I, honestly, mean no disrespect with the name of the bot, you pretty much pioneered the rageface movement on GTM.  I can't help but think about you when I see that face.  And, yes, the whole idea for the bot spawned simply from wanting to put happycryrageface on a DSL disc for the lulz.  It just kinda took off from there.

Hmmph... a worthy idea... yes ! YES ! AS A PERSONAL CHALLENGE I SHALL TURN THAT JOKE BOT INTO A MACHINE OF NIGHTMARES LIKE THE RA2 WORLD HAS NEVER SEEN, AND IT SHALL LEAVE A WHOLE ROAD PAVED WITH THE CHASSIS OF IT'S FALLEN ENEMIES AFTER IT ! IT WILL BRING A WHOLE AGE OF TERROR AND BLOODSHED OVER THE FORUM, AND I SHALL RIDE UNDER IT'S MIGHTY SHADOW, A CONTENT SMILE ON MY FACE AS I BRING DESTRUCTION TO MY FOES ! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

Are you attempting to flatter my ego or boost my confidence or something, or try to make up for your MOST GRAVE INSULT towards me ? Unlike the previous attempt, I cannot be sure of it's efficiency.
