1 - It's a giant three-legged mecha with a flamethrower and two guns. Does anything more needs to be said ?
2 - It's horse manure, nothing more
3 - Clearly the second best robot, but... wat ? It's just a giant mess of different robot types.
4 - Still horse manure.
-
#1 - Nicely done but seems a bit messy...
#2 - wat
#3 - Confusing
#4 - wat
...I guess I'll give my vote for #3. It's the only one I liked atleast a bit.
-
Voting 3 just because of the name. I didn't really like any of them, shame I couldn't think of anything.
And there's ballasts in #2, Nar. Ballasts.
-
ugh, worst Christmas BotM ever. Voted number 1 because it's the only semi-appealing one.

Same. I'd have went for it but I had no ideas and my splash skill are worse than magikarps.
-
1 - I'd like to see it walk if it can, looks cool.
2 - Crap.
3 - Good splash, messy bot.
4 - Also crap.
-
HERE NOW!!!!!
We WILL NOT be calling BOTM entries "crap" ...... no matter how bad they are!
Also you are muted until tomorrow for having the F word in your PT.

Maybe you should work on something instead of complaining...

You're the one to talk.

HERE NOW!!!!!

would you prefer if people called them scat, feces, or digestive waste?

I don't complain about the entries.

That's a stupid rule... if they are crap, there's no reason to play ostrich.
Besides, you just called them very bad. How is this different ?
-
Judging by the name of #2, I'd say it's supposed to be sh**ty.
-
And the builder must be really stupid, because he put "You Parents" instead of "Your Parents".

All Marty said was that he voted for Number 1 and that he wanted to enter, but couldn't. There was no complaining involved. Back off.
-
OH DAMMIT I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!
-

Agreed.
-
I vote for #1, because it looks cool and LASER CANNONS

I apologize for that. I was more talking about what Badnik said.
-
Then why quote me then -.-
-
this argument is dumb.

that sucks man, i wouldve really liked to see you entered and give #1 some actual competition

idk if its fair to call their entries crap after they were the only ones to go and take them time to enter this
just my opinion

Yeah. X-mas BOTM is always my favorite. I was so tied up with Black Friday / Holiday prep at work that I haven't been focusing on bot building.
Ah well. :P

Yes it is, because half of this month's entries are totally uninteresting in all aspects ! Entering doesn't automatically makes you superior and immune to criticism.
Besides, we do the same for tournaments, why not for BOTM ?

Uninteresting .... uninteresting ..... They were crap! (well a couple were anyway!)
-
BOTM really went down the *expletive* hole this december.
-

Wasn't thinking straight.
-
Ok, this is straight up bullsh**...
I'm gonna blow my own cover on this one. I made the piece of sh** that is #2, and it was meant to be a piece of sh**. It's called a damn joke.
Anytime J submits a joke bot everyone jizzes themselves and votes for it. God forbid anyone else make a joke bot, though...

So there's a ridiculously cool bot, there's a joke bot, an interesting concept of a bot, and a "built by... yeah... that guy..." bot.
Of course 2 of the bots will recieve praise while the two lesser bots will recieve criticism. What did you expect, throwing in a joke bot?

I didn't expect to be get praise over a joke bot, but I sure as Hell didn't think it would be taken as a serious entry.
-
Merry christmas guys!
And for the record I actually liked #2. I must be one of the few people who "got it".
-
Same. I got the joke. The spelling and he grammar was bad for a reason, have you ever been to a pound shop (or a dollar shop) and looked at the cheap ripoffs? They pretty much all do not work proplally and there are grammar mistakes and stupid words on the packaging. I will give you an example; (https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/1856/90m/img.youtube.com/vi/8asnz3E4n4o/mqdefault.jpg) See? That is not "new technology" believe me! So -don fret' about numbe2 guyss! It is a joke.

-
Well, 5 minutes and voting closes ....... I don't think #2 won!
-
This was pretty clear... :P
-
Geez... #1 got 42 votes. I didn't think there were that many active members.
-
I had a design in the pipe works but was too busy to make it... or even get on here to vote for others lol
congrats to the deserving winner though
-
The joke with my bot, is that Die Hard is a Christmas movie - Nostalgia Critic reference, unless of course it IS someone's Christmas movie. The only downside is, I made a terrible robot at the time! Cheers for the 1 vote, hah.
-
I do believe #1 should be the winner, but I still can't believe people thought #2 was a serious entry.
-
Congratulations to Domanating with the win ...... we have a new winner from a fairly new guy!
#1 - Domanating
#2 - Hurricane Andrew
#3 - Kurt Wylde
#4 - Rob Collins
-
Wow... Congratulations! O.O
-
I kind of assumed that was Domanating's bot.
-
Woo three votes. :3
Congrats to Domanating, very nice robot. :approve:
-
Letz Shake won, cool.

Sorry, but J is just funnier than you, and SFTW was overused last Christmas.
Still, it was pretty obviously not a serious entry.
-
i just noticed that domanting's bot doesn't have it's weight shown in it's splash, making it null correct? therefore the second entry would win by default right?
-

It says nothing about showing the weight, brah.
-
ah kk it's just that almost all botm's have the weight featured so i just figured it was something mandatory.

It actually is usually included in the rules, but apparently not this time. Although, maybe ACAMS edited it out so that he could allow the only good entry.

Thanks everyone :smile:

Nope. He didn't edit anything. I thought about that before working on the splash and wondered if the weight rule was implicit.
So I went to check BOTM of december 2011. 3 of the entries had no weights so I figured I didn't need to put it.
-
He probably doesn't require one because the Christmas BOTM has no weight limit.
-
That is not a rule for Christmas BOTM's
