Thought this is an interesting question.
I'd say mine would be.. (All Stock)
RoboLeague entry Iron Rain (Recently Upgraded it to 2)
LW VS Psynergetic Theory
Realistic Stock Flipper `Rope The Rope`
What is yours?
-
My signature bot - the one that seems to pop into quite a lot of my conversations with people ('specially Hydro) is my Servobot SCIENCE!.
Though I'd love to think that people might regard Helifapper as my signature bot
As for a type of bot that's my signature one... anything that glitches is fun
-
My Best DSL Popup ever - Missile Test 2
My Best Stock Popups - Exterminatus series
My Amazing Rage entry - PlasmaBox
My Best AW, BW & FW Bots - Xenomorph, Xenomorph Queen, Xenomorph King

(I think there was a thread for this before...)
Anyway, you don't really choose your own signature bot. It becomes one over time after you've entered it into tournaments or something else happens with it. IMO, it would be better if you got other members to choose your signature bot for you. Not everyone has one, though. Just keep that in mind.
-
(I think there was a thread for this before...)
Yup, there was.

EENH/Reactivity

Why don't we pick one for the people before?
Jonzu: Missile Test
Gazea: That LW side hammer
Ty4er: Reactivity

Good idea

I don't consider anyone in this thread thus far to have one.
Hang on, except Vroooooom for SM.

Diamond Cutter, Kaiza, Toriodore.

IMO Click and R0B0 summed it up well last time we had this thread:
A signature bot should be a bot that is always automatically associated with your name, like Naryar with HazCon, SSG with Minesweeper, kill343 with Stratocaster, and razer/wakkydude with SFTW. You can't pick one for yourself (well, unless you deliberately enter it in tons of tournaments and post it lots of places like Minesweeper), it just sort of happens if your bot becomes famous.
By that definition, a lot of people don't actually have a signature bot. I'm not sure if I even have one. There are several bots I have that are frequently associated with my name (Drumblebee, the Sacrifice bots) but none that immediately jump to mind like, "That's my signature bot."
But then again, signature bots are generally decided by the public, so someone else's assessment of my signature bot is probably more accurate than my own.
I hate to kill some buzz, but very few people here have "signature" bots. You can't really say what your own signature bot is either, as it is something that others associate with you. For example, when I say "Naryar" people think "HazCon." "InfiniteInertia" is "AC." "SSG" is "Minesweeper."
Some great builders don't really have "signature" bots either. Take Pwnator for instance. He's a great builder, but he really dosen't have one bot that stands out in my mind above all others.
Basically, you can't really choose your own signature bot. Other people choose it for you.
EDIT: Bawwwww... Clickbeetle beat me to the punch.
-
I've genuinely only heard of 2 robots in this thread, Vroooom and Missile Test.
Signature bots aren't something you pick, as seen above.
(Although I feel many associate me with Fever/Blood Orange/Shinigami)
-
Looking at members with coloured usernames initially, I've come up with these:
- Click: Drumblebee (Possibly others but this one comes to my mind)
- Starcore: Fury/Tempus Fugit
- MNB: Shebeast
- Reier: Zapper
- Ounce: Nuclear Fallout
- Jules: Mako
- Sonny: Replicas
- Craaig: Orange VS series
- Urjak: Bane
- Somebody: SnSnSnSnS
- ACAMS: Child's Play (Or possibly 2-Sinister)
- Pys: Bounty Hunter
- Inf: AC
- Sage: ULTIMATUM, Vise, God Mode
- Naryar: HazCon
- Pwn: Hot Wheels (Possibly)
- RFS: Tha Thumperizer
- SSG: Minesweeper
- Kill: Stratocaster
- Firebeetle: Seism 13
- Razer/Wakky: SFTW
- Rejected: NWB/RPB
- SM: Vroom
- JoeCB1991: Destroyer
- 40757: Seism 16
- STC: BoEN
- AoR: ITI V
- Red: BFR
- KM: Havok
- PR: Micro Vulcan
- lloopp: AntonYYYm
- Vertigo: Bulldozer
- Mike: Smashbox
Lots of people, including J, myself, JD, 123, VB, NFX, Jonzu, Joe, Scrap, R0B0 and SKBT dosn't necessarily have a signature bot. This isn't in itself a bad thing - either not having a particularly prominent bot, such as myself, or making so much awesome, it's hard to narrow down thinking to just one or two bots, like Scrap, Joe or R0B0.
-
GK: Minifridge...
-
I don't think GK has a signature bot (even Minifridge).
He does have a signature custom skin, though. :P
-
The grammar in the title makes me wanna cry.
-

You got that right. :P
-
I take not having a signature bot as a compliment.. since I always try to make something new, original or different :gawe:

ftfy :P

Mine's probably my awful Bike with No Handlebars.

Packie 17

Take a look at my sig.
-
No idea?

No idea?
Have you showcased it before? I dont recall seeing it :P

I don't remember, but it'll probs have a lot of razors on it :P
-
I can only really say that Shovel Headed Blockbuster, Impaler, or Grand Delta for myself, since none of my other bots have been really entered in anything.
-
Valid Query 2 seems to be the bot people associate best with me, but I wouldn't say I have one signature bot, per se. As has been said, you don't really choose your own signature bot. At a stretch, I might suggest Pwnator's signature bot as being Hot Wheels.
-
Sorry but all of you newfags and/or barely known for anything builders have no signature bots.
Mike (Smashbox 2), Urjak (Bane series), myself (Hazcon & HnM), R0B0 (Enfilad3 & obZen), Inf (AC), Sage (Ultimatum), SSG (Minesweeper), Razer (SFTW), AoR (ItI), Pysc (Pysc popup), Rejected(both bots that you know), ACAMS (Death Warrant, Starcore (Fury, Maelstrom), heck even LRA2 (COID since it was memed up for being even worse than SFTW), Craaig (Blood Orange), Somebody (SnSnS series), 123 (RPP)...
A signature bot must be linked instantly to his builder, and must be famous and/or innovative as well.
-
FINAL Z
-
Urjak (Bane series)
Yup, as long as my name brings up images of FSS then my job has been successful.
But yeah, as far as signature bots are concerned, you must think of the builder, and have your mind go right to that bot. In my opinion, most builders, particularly those who build many different (like others have said), don't have a signature bot. Starcore, Scrap, Pwn, G.K., Naryar, R0B0, Click, Joeblo, NFX, ect. don't have a signature bot, at least in my mind.
-
Yay I have three signature bots!
...acording to GK at least.

You say that as though it's a bad thing. >:(
-
Wedgie :trollface
Nah, I don't feel like I'm in the class of members to have a signature bot.
-
Vortex or Windmill.
-
Hot Chick, if anypony remembers it, for Stock.
Shebeast for DSL. I think Shebeast is probably overall the bot I'm most known for.
-
Generally a notable BBEANS entry can suffice as a signature bot.
ACAMS - Childs Play
Jonzu - Missile Test
Naryar - HazCon
Etc.
It still gives me an odd feeling to think that I build the best SnS/HS, and some really good SnS (I lose at flail sns though).
-
What would my signature bot be?
-
I'm not sure you've been around long enough to have established a Signature bot, as such. I reckon the best candidate might be Golden Sun, but that's not really got the same association as inf and AC, or Naryar and HazCon.
-
RPJK got Rope the Rope IMO.
-

no i didn't want to seem stuck-up by saying i have more than everyone else, so i stuck the blame on you. I appreciate it!
-
RPJK got Rope the Rope IMO.
Now that I think about it. Cassini Pro/Probifier is my signature bot due to entering it in two challenges.
-
RPJK. You don't have a signature bot. Golden Sun is closest but only because of it beating T-800. Not enough recognition tO be signature though.

I know, it seems sarcasm doesn't travel well over the interwebs.

I think Shebeast is pretty cool. In need of an upgrade, but pretty cool.

..I've never heard of any of those.
Corn Mauler :trollface
YES! :D
And good to see people agreeing on the whole Orange series thing (':
-
probably the enigma machine.
-
For me, its probably the robot with the most razors on it :P
I would have no idea what bot however you associate to me to make it my signature bot..
The trap Master comes to mind, but thats about it :/

Probably Box of Grime and Bloodshed.
-
Ounce: Nuclear Fallout Don't know it
It won BTTB >.>
but I would agree either that or Paramecium would be considered my signature bot, at least in stock.
-
...yeah I totally didn't watch that tourney >.>
*c BTTB thread*
I can see why I can't recall any of those bots :P
-
- Craaig: Orange VS series Can't recall what they look like
That type of VS that I always enter into everything ever XD
-
yeah if you havent seen an orange VS you havent seen a VS made by craaig :P

Does that mean Death of angels 2 is my signature bot?
-
It hasn't been as hyped up as Ultimatum or Vise or even Bumble Bee *GASP*, so nope.

exactly. just because I won a tournament...
-
Sage, I wasn't implying that as the reason NF should be my signature bot. I was just surprised because I thought R0B0 knew more about BTTB1.
Still, Nuclear Fallout is possibly my best stock HW, and one of the few bots I've entered into multiple tournaments as well as try to hype up a little. It should at least be somewhat recognizable.
-
I don't have enough time to keep track of all of the tourneys I'm not entered in. That and I forgot that I entered BTTB 2 myself xD

I remember it well.

Rope the Rope? Isn't that the bot I beat in our challenge?
:trollface

Of course!
But my VS series is going to become my signature bot(s).

Are those the ones currently in your showcase? I like those.

I thik NF is more hyped up due to its wedges
-
Whats NF?

@RPJK Nuclear Fallout.
I'm glad I don't have a signature bot, means I can't be too closely associated with one bot type, since I try not to specialise.
-
itt: nobodies who wish they were important enough to have signature bots.
honestly guys, i don't want to hate, but it's annoying as heck.
-
Makes sense.

U just mad because your sig bot is still Slamboni. :trollface
J/k Slamboni was awesome.

kill343:Danger of Death

Oh how I wish I could find those Lego Slamboni pics >__>
Anyway, my completely-not-famous-at-all, "signature robot" would be:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/58927CrazyGadget.jpg)
.....That, or EMERGENCY, because it ended up the same as Western Spinner(IMO).
-
Just posting here I'm sure you know what one is mine.

Too true :(

I'm pretty sure you're the only member here who's robot is far more famous than you are.
-
CRUSHNSMASH- 200 Wins, 23 Gold Sawblades, 46 reg awards. Liek A Bawz...... Then The Computer Broke. R.I.P.
I Will Post Infrogame's Signature Robot. EMERGENCY :trollface
-
It's not like this has been said 3 times already, but this thread isn't supposed to be an ego contest, but a signature bot.
In a way, a signature bot is what defines the builder's style. It must be also famous.

Sad because it's true. I never knew that my best creation at the age of 9 would become as big as this.

I hate the SFTW meme, but seriously laughed when I saw that. Very loudly, too.
