Hi all,

I'm just stopping by to say "Hi".

Does anyone remember me? I used to be an admin on the official Robot Arena forum as well as the official tournament host. It's been exactly 12 since I registered on here.
For those that play RA2 still: If I can find it, I believe I have a USB stick somewhere with all of my old bots on, after all these years, does anyone want me to upload them and make them available for everyone? I spent a lot of time back in the day on many of them. Jex, E-Rupt and Hades might be my most well known, as well as Death Port 2. If people are interested I will dig it out tomorrow, tidy it up a bit and then will upload my entire collection.

EDIT:

I have uploaded my entire bot collection, here is the link to download it:

I have a write-up on each bot I am in the process of finishing and will post it here.

Hey fam.

GTM's gotten it's own official tournament. It'd be cool if you checked it out. Maybe you could show some of those youngsters a thing or 2.

Man, you were gone before I even got here. Always fun to see random people pop up like this.

I'm not sure my rusty old bots would stand a chance against some of the modern creations. I'm sure lots has been discovered in regards to more effective designs in the last 10 years, so I am sure I'd be stomped.

It's really cool to see you back here. I hope I do as good a job of hosting the GTM tournament as you did hosting the RA2 ones.

Also, I'd encourage just joining, anyway. Who knows, you could end up paired up with the newbies that aren't as good as people were 10 years ago :P

Whoa. Nice to see you stop by man. :)

Welcome back....

Thanks for the popup man...

I'm working on tidying up my Bot collection a bit and writing a bit of info about various designs and why they came into existence. Where is the best place to upload this when I am done?

Probably Rob · « **Reply #14 on:** September 24, 2016, 10:38:09 AM »

The file uploader, Mediafire, anywhere to be honest

Edit to Yugi: Yeah, sorry, I assumed he would've wanted to upload as an all-in-one bundle collection

yugitom · « **Reply #15 on:** September 24, 2016, 11:36:04 AM »

That's for uploading in bulk. You can also use the bot exchange if you want to keep them archived with the rest of GTM's bots, but you'd have to upload them one-by-one.

090901 · « **Reply #16 on:** September 24, 2016, 02:30:04 PM »

I rather have them uploaded in bulk that be thrown on the cluster f that is the bot exchange. you can put them in the Bots section of the downloads area then.

Hello. :)
I always like it when ra2 legends randomly stop by.
Like Mr. AS said, it would be great if you entered The GTM Championship.

Jimxorb · « **Reply #18 on:** September 25, 2016, 12:47:12 PM »

I have uploaded my entire collection of 96 bots. These are old bots (12 years+) but I have charged all of their batteries up and they are ready to go. Enjoy!

Actually, I had wanted to take a look at some of your more famous bots. Thanks!

(also, thanks for nigh on inventing the popup, man.)
