(Image removed from quote.)

I nominate this Most Random General Discussion Thread of 2009.

Thoughts on Backyard Ripper, eh?  Here goes: The angled spinner really only works well on a juggler-type design, so it needs weapons with no normals on the disc, and also some good wedges.  Dual discs would also help to keep bots from being thrown off the weapon.

And the game has never crashed after fighting it as far as I can remember (it HAS been a while though).

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

Ronin is just annoying. Coal Miner is one of the hardest. Wide Load is underestimated. Bear is strong, even if it has an open chassis. Emergency is decent to say the least. Sentinel sucks. Deadbeat sucks, etc.

I have issues killing deadbeat, bear is OK if you're new but easy to flip I agree with you on wide load but, coal miner the hardest? I killed him the second day i had the game and can thrash him with a wedge
