HW for sure. It lets my ideas flow. When you are building SHW and UHW, it takes more thought and planning, and it just is not as fun. (Insert 123stw saying that UHW are the best and Nary with a ragetoon for whatever reason).
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

HW for me as well. I just feel like I can build what I like without tight restrictions. With other classes, the chassis must be airtight to make it decent.

The poll question says for you to select your favorite class to build in.. so that we can gather the stats to answer the topic question..(what is the most built weight class)

make sense ?

MW - Enough weight to be creative but not so much that you are left with 50kg left over

HW.  followed by SHW, I like having plenty of weight to play around with.  MW is okay, but lower than that and i get tired of 'wanna do this, but don't have enough weight'.  UHW is usually just too dang much.

most built is heavyweight for sure but i prefer i challenge so i mostly build lws, bws and aws. people build heavyweights cause they can put on a lot of weapons etc. plus new builders start at heavyweights.

I think that mostly built is MW:s because most of the tournaments are Middleweights.

That doesn't mean that people build MWs more than HWs because for some reason there are more MW tourneys.
(Even though I think that it is better that most tourneys are for MWs IMO because I prefer MWs :P)

I voted MW, I do them most, even though for the last week or so they've taken a backstep for HW and SHW.

I also agree with Yoda, apart from preferring MWs to SHWs.

I'm don't generally build SHW, sometimes you are left with a bot thats 1000kg & you don't know what to do with it & UHW are even worse.
AW, BW & FW are just too light really, especially AW's

My favourite is probably HW. Though I tend to build all over the place.
