Merrick is 3, Playzooki is 4, MassimoV is probably 10, TBD is 11.

Hexed is pretty cool.

Tough decision between #2, #5 & #10...

I think I'll go for #5

Naryar · « **Reply #3 on:** October 28, 2014, 05:09:36 AM »

alright so

1: Not bad. But in all honesty compared to 5, 10 and 11 it doesn't compare.
2: i can barely see the bot, it's a messy splash and has barely enough pictures.
3: It's very very cool and my favorite. Splash ain't THAT good but this isn't splash of the month.
5: Not fully convinced. Yeah it has hexes but no turbulence is just five times better.
6: OK bot, sh**ty splash. Nothing to be excited about.
7: A giraffe won once, it won't won twice. Joke's over.
8: sh**ty and messy splash, bot that I can barely see what it is (what is it, a SnS ?)
9: Bot is messy and of insufficient quality. Kossokei, you must actually skin your bots, you know...
10: Neat bot, probably my second favorite. It is technically an hybrid so it's +naryarpoints.
11: Nice bot, needs some more eye candy though.

#4 is too good for naryar to criticize.

I'm not really a judge for Ironforge but I'll see what I can do.

1. Looks strong. Skin I can't decide if a custom edge lining would make it better. Splash could of used a little more attention.
2. Great splash idea, bot looks terrifying, only gripe would be the same as Nar's, small pictures.
3. Well built, it's like those DSL 3 IRL bots I'm seeing. Splash is rushed though.
4. Genius. A new era of bot building and presentation is upon us.
5. Oho, this looks cool. And I assume it's stable? I'm liking this.
6. This whole free ballast thing is confusing. Looks competently done, worry about the exposed motors.
7. I'm not exactly a giraffe judge either. I thought they had more yellow... fur(?) then brown?
8. I can't tell what's going on here.
9. Cool, cool. Really needed an actual skin, though. I don't think I'll vote for 'ot'
10. Doesn't look as powerful as the others, but it's a neat design. Good skin too. Overall, I like it.
11. This must be one of those detail-oriented IRL builders. Or not. I'm not sure how complicated it really is. But it looks badass. I considered the splash to be it's downfall on my mobile but now that I see it on PC I kind of like it in a minimalistic way.

I'd say, of the lot... 2, 3, 5, 10, 11. I'll have to think carefully about which to vote for.

lots of good ones! can't decide...

Shield · « **Reply #7 on:** October 28, 2014, 06:32:11 AM »

aww man

#2 is soooooooooo detailed and it's just really really cool with the tournament news at the bottom and the razor voucher and the scrapheap challenge champion, just argh it looks so cool and meta and i love whoever made this but the pictures are too small tho so there's that

but #5 is just pure eyecandy, the splash looks so pretty but the bot really needs bottom supports and i just argh

#10 is really really cool too

1 is probably MassimoV, 2 is you, 6 is Chris, 8 is AS, 10 I think is Lemonism.

The tank's gonna win, calling it now. Bitches love tanks.

Meganerdbomb · « **Reply #10 on:** October 28, 2014, 11:39:05 AM »

Should I vote #4 or #7? I can't decide!

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #11 on:** October 28, 2014, 11:50:51 AM »

I don't think we should have the results show until the poll is closed. Isn't that how ACAMS did it?

Natef · « **Reply #12 on:** October 28, 2014, 12:01:43 PM »

i think so

Good point, only just noticed that.

Never used to have the totals running during voting.

My mistake. I somehow tapped the wrong radio button when I created the poll.

RedAce · « **Reply #15 on:** October 28, 2014, 03:27:57 PM »

Full Thoughts:

#1: Not bad, kinda boring though.
#2: Interesting idea for a splash. Execution however is kinda messed up.
#3: Very cool looking bot, even if it isn't Standard. Splash is kind lazy though.
#4: This bot is awful, but I bet whoever made this intended for it to be awful.
#5: Probably my favorite here. Cool looking bot, attractive splash, and it gets my vote.
#6: Meh. It's probably also intending to be a joke.
#7: A giraffe bot isn't going to win BOTM again. You failed at being J.
#8: I'm guessing it's an SnS, and I get some of the references it's trying to make. However, it's just messy.
#9: Bland, nuff' said.
#10: Pretty good bot, nothing too amazing about it.
#11: Cool bot overall since it's pretty original. Only thing stopping it is boring splash.

Congratulations, TBD Devastator.

I've added all the builder names to the poll and the OP.

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #17 on:** November 01, 2014, 01:29:16 PM »

I feel really sad for Redline. He deserved more votes.

Lemonism · « **Reply #18 on:** November 01, 2014, 01:34:34 PM »

Congrats TBD!
I can't deny your bot was far cooler than mine, I was pretty stuck for ideas and put a disproportionate amount of time into the splash as a result.

NeighImACarrot · « **Reply #19 on:** November 01, 2014, 01:52:31 PM »

We're the conservatives, worse than the alternatives

Poll

Which bot deserves to be the Bot of the Month?
