Three bots this time, huh?  Well, let's see what we got here.

#1: Klone.  Not bad all things considered.
#2: Hi Thrackerzod.  Nice splash and bot, especially with how how you combined previous BOTM entry with this.
#3: Unorthodox.  Which is cool for the bot, but the splash on the othechand, is a little disorientating to look at.  I wanna say Click built it, but that's a stretch on it's own.

Also, this is a bit off topic, but Wen, please don't double post.  The "Modify" post button is right there.

well i utterly forgot about that... bots are not bad (except for people rehashing the same thing over and over again), but I should have entered.

#2 made me laugh, its decent as it is, just 1 reason why Mr boner just loves BOTM.

Stock needs a lot of love still.

Voting for #1. Really liking the Splinter style.
Title: Re: Vote BOTM Feb 2016
Post by: DeadGenocide on January 30, 2016, 07:18:48 AM
1: Nice bot I love the take on Splinter but (noob question alert) why is the wedge on the front like that?
2: Mr. Bones + Chimera = Bonemera I love how it says the Perm motors are reaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllly slow and does that mean a IF bot + a Stock bot = a DSL Bot?
3: I feel nauseous from the splash but the bot is cool and I like the weapon (only if diesector had that then Battlebots would have been WAY more entertaining)

1 doesn't particularly look that good to me. It was a tough choice between 2 and 3 for but I chose 2 based on what I'd rather see every time I checked GTM

1. A nice clean splash, but I donno, not really jumping out as anything special.
2. ...no comment.
3. Bot is cool, but splash seems kinda... busy?

(except for people rehashing the same thing over and over again)
what kinda loser would do something like that

...I looked at this image for so long.  I sent it to like 4 different people.  HOW DID THAT GET THROUGH

I love how it says the Perm motors are reaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllly slow
Crap, that was supposed to point at the wheel.  Geez, I just messed everything up.

Entry #2 should win. The others are edgelord fukbois, that look like the last 500 bots that get entered.

It looks like this month's BOTM goes to Thrackerzod with his bot Bonemera. Congratulations!

Yay, I did it!  Despite the backwards fist and the misplaced arrow!

That said, I think it's a good time to announce that I'm going to be retiring Mr. Bones now.  He had a good run, but I don't want the joke to overstay its welcome too much longer.  I'll put up all 3 different flavors of Mr. Bones on the Bot Exchange soon.

EDIT: Wait, I beat out RedAce and Clickbeetle with a stupid joke bot?  What is happening

Wait I was right saying Click built #3?  Well okay then.  Congrats Thrackerzod.

Also, I really didn't have much enthusiasm building my entry since I was kinda drained from RA2, so, it's not my best quality.  Thanks to everyone to who have voted for me.  I do appreciate it.

Click entering BOTM was pretty unexpected.

I had to support my own mod, didn't I?  If I wasn't in this there'd be only 2 bots!

Also since it's pretty much done now, I have more time for actual bot building.

Probably should have gone for a simpler splash here with a plain white background or something instead of trying to make it look like a kaleidoscope.  Oh well.

Hey I just had a thought.  Click, RedAce, y'all up for a BotM rumble match?  Just to see what happens?

Why not, as long as Click is up for that, then I don't see a reason not to.

Sure, if you want to make a thread in the challenge board I'll AI Kaleidor and send it over.  I reckon I can use Thwartoise's AI.

-insert 'maybe you should have entered' comment here-

EDIT: Actually, scratch that, Click couldn't beat it, nobody had a hope.
