To be honest, some people have more than one Signature bot, and some people Have ones which may not be considered as signature bots. So:

Naryar - Hazcon, Cataclysm
Inf - AC, LeveL
Sage - Ultimatum, Vise
Starcore - Spin doctors team: SC AI
Razer - SFTW
SSG - Minesweeper
Click - Drumblebee
Kill - Stratocaster
Jules - Mako
Mike - Smashbox 2, Grindhouse
Reier - Mutant Dragonfly 3
JoeCB1991 - Destroyer series
R0B0SH4RK - Enfilad series and variations.
Urjak - Circle of Thorns
Somebody - SnSnSnSnS
RFS - Tha Thuperizer
Pys - Spite series

And then there are people who haven't got one, because they are always trying new things:

Joe, Pwn, STW, GK, Me(?)

Also, I know Click said it, but Ijust wanted to post my own list.

In the game press F11 to take a screenshot.
the screenshot will be saved in your screenshots folder within the RA2 folder.
Load the screenshot in your favorite paint program
crop it down to a friendly size, get rid of any excess space in the picture too.
Save it as a JPG or PNG.
go to the Gametechmods Website
click on Image host (to the left of the page)
Click Browse
Find the picture you saved (after cropping and all that crap)
Upload it
copy/paste the link information into your message here.

that's it. Do it now... if you succeed I will give you a prize.

please refrain for using BMP images of that size

either trim the image down or change the format to .png

or even better do both

a few hundred kb's is better to load (and upload) then 1.4mb

I dunno nate... You gotta enter some more tourneys and build up your showcase.

A lot of us still remember you for Tsunami. heheh.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #72 on:** January 15, 2010, 12:51:50 AM »

just try and trim your images and save them as png format (easy enough to do in paint just click save as)

it will not only make them easier to load for us watching them but it wil cut the time you have to sit and wait for them to upload by about 1/5

This became my signature robot:
https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Tha_Thumperizer
I just updated the post with some old pics and extra information for the "IRL" section of the article. Just for fun I'm considering doing my robot justice and completing its final planned IRL design.

I made it in early 2003, it's a replica of a robot I originally built in Lego Mindstorms. It's named after a slang term for a subwoofer, a "thumperizer", because its Lego counterpart would play music while in operation, the two spinning blades later became known as "thumperizers". Tha Thumperizer became famous only because I coined the phrase "THUMPERIZED" and used it whenever I edited out or deleted posts when I was on AceUplink. Whenever I was a Moderator there for a short time I wouldn't DELETE people's posts, I'd just edit them out and put a thumbnail of Tha Thumperizer with "POST THUMPERIZED" underneath it.

There was this fellow on YouTube that I stumbled across one day called battlebots boy. He basically was running the RFS AI Pack V1.5 and set up Robot Wars-ish "heats" where robots from all of the weight classes fought and advanced up through his brackets. Out of all of the robots he used (some weren't from my AI pack) Tha Thumperizer won the "Grand Final". Made me smile, for such an old robot it can still beat... robots of the same era it's from. :P

You should restart building and implement it in DSL.

RFS · « **Reply #76 on:** January 21, 2010, 03:25:48 PM »

I believe I built a "Thmumpzerizer DSL" version for my DSL AI Pack.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #77 on:** January 21, 2010, 06:19:08 PM »

you did. I remember that. Even though my first ever DSL bot (a HW shell spinner with Hypno teeth) beat it.

I never got the "hang" of DSL, I'm pretty sure everything in that pack could be beaten with an unarmored wedge if you tried hard enough. It was too "new" of a game and I was already accustomed to the old RA2 - my legacy remains with the original

JoeBlo · « **Reply #79 on:** January 21, 2010, 09:42:36 PM »

I didnt even know you made a DSL one lol

guess it makes that more true...
