I couldn't tell what happened to it against CFTW though.
Was it just so unbalanced that it almost tipped over?

Seems. But from what I could see, it just stopped moving and counted itself out.

I believe we already had a thread for this though. My favorite moment was when Hydro's RIMP bot got stuck :P

pretty sure there is another thread like this....

anyway a mass amount of the robots weight was on 1 side of the shell causing it pretty much counter rotate with the chassis, so the robot could only drive in circles thus being counted out.

I admit I didn't expect it to actually loose, sure was funny though

R1885's robot killing itself in Clash Cubes 2 by suiciding over the arena wall was pretty hilarious.

*thinks back*

CC2 was probably my favorite all time tournament out of all I hosted. It really did output a lot of awesome stuff...

Best OOTA ever, period. Even Rage III wasn't as awesome as this one.
Title: Re: Funniest/Best Moments in Tournament History
Post by: JoeBlo on November 04, 2010, 10:16:30 AM
still on the topic of CC2

Red's epic flipping of LiNcK oota
R0B0 doing a triple somersault oota
MikeNCR ripping apart his opponent then a piece flying into the pit release button while he was on top
Click oota'ing Haz by smashing it hard enough into the pit cover
Super SnS hitting Monster Cube so hard it AGOD'd the drive axle and made it havok oota 

the list goes on  :gawe:

I'm inclined to disagree. I'd say S_M's V=IR suiciding OOTA off of an overturned bot in the corner in Survival Of The Fittest was the best OOTA ever.

It did. And it failed again in Total Annihilation. I think the inherent instability of the design let it down a bit.

That was a great one :D. Only problem was I failed to turn the camera in time to get a really good shot of it. Kinda took me by suprise.
 
Flee Beetle using its srimech to save itself from going OOTA

Great moment by my favorite little non-lethal bot.  Was so happy when it got the chance to demonstrate that ability.
 
 
 
I thought it was hilarious when Ripper of Guts suplexed Minimus in BTTB2.

In my view, any robot that commits suicide when it's on the verge of winning constitutes a fantastic moment of hilarity. =D

ahahahaha I remember that.. it was brilliant

best oota ? I mean he didnt just drive out the robot area but the whole arena GMF :P

Flee Beetle using its srimech to save itself from going OOTA

Not really a srimech since it was invertible :P

But still a piston from saving itself from OOTA's is smart.
