predictions:
Highlander-My fave to win, also the only non-flipper (lulz). First.
Nightshade-Looks really cool, fast and pretty well-armored. I predict third.
Saint Mary's Church...-I love the BFE'd bot name first of all, and second of all it has weapons, as opposed to NightShade or Paddy. Second.
Paddy-Too fast for its own good, also has the weaponry of a LW. Also waaay too much rear ballast. Fourth.

I dunno if cheabot was allowed. I just asked for permission to use the parts I did.

Well you are using judge panels and GF is using judge bursts, so...

G.K. · « **Reply #104 on:** December 05, 2010, 08:04:01 AM »

I got permission to use the judge panel and burst, so I presume it's ok.

cheatbot2's fine. This is just a tournament for the lols, after all.

Also here are the RW splashes. For more lols. =D

Looks like GF's bot is a flipper. Take a look at the skin.

It's a flipper/popup/rammer hybrid. I designed it mainly for realism, and drive power, needed to bring the top-mounted flipper into play and eject its opponents from the ring. With a little luck, I should take second or third.

So where is the popup and rammer part ?

All I see is just a fast flipper.

No, no.

By the way, we need to find a meme name for this picture.

GF, you should have used a metal hinge wedge

Highlander and Nightshade are the coolest things I've ever seen.

The popup part is the method by which the flipper works, and the rammer is that ramming plate on the front, which does damage as it crashes into opponents.

Also-

Thanks! It's nice to see praise from one of the Global Mods

To pass the time, I'm going to give my predictions-

Highlander- This one somewhat reminds me of All Torque- the weaponry looks potent, armour strong, but I think its lack of a wedge could potentially cost it. I predict Second or Third.

Nightshade- Although my entry seems to be getting a bit of flack from Nary, I've been able to fine-tune the weapon system so that both the ramming capabilities and the flipper arm can be brought into play, and with the choice of arena, can hopefully allow for some OOTA knockouts. If I don't win, I predict Second or Third.

Saint Mary's Church...- Certainly an imaginative name! Anyway, the idea of using Clusterbot flippers was quite inspired, and it certainly looks capable of flipping any of the other three out of the arena. My only concern is the likelihood of the robots flipping themselves over, allowing opponents to potentially exploit it if one of them misses. If not myself, this one is my tip to win.

Paddy and Mick- Sorry Paddy, but this one gets the SFTW vote from me. Its weaponry looks somewhat limited for its weight class, and is way too fast for its type to make any effective use for its weapons. Fourth.

Round 1 is up! =D
First fight is kinda boring, in my opinion, but the second one's not too bad.

G.K. · « **Reply #116 on:** December 06, 2010, 06:24:24 AM »

Nice.

Naryar · « **Reply #117 on:** December 06, 2010, 06:33:27 AM »

I thought NFX's drum was much more powerful. Seriously, it looks like you have Astroflight weapon motors :P

JoeBlo · « **Reply #118 on:** December 06, 2010, 07:13:57 AM »

only piglets :/ a perm would have been nice

Naryar · « **Reply #119 on:** December 06, 2010, 07:18:03 AM »

Yes, I have eyes as well, I saw that it had piglets.

Still is 10 torque and 135 maxspeed (or something close) that weak ?
