I like the thinking behind UFO but it borderlines realism.. reminds me of my follow up robot to Gyratory Reborn
I have to visit this showcase more often your building style is admirable (well at least admired by me :))

hey Mad can you start a showcase haha or at least show me some of your bots I have only seen a small handful of yours and they were creative
Mad's response: (I wrote this here to not further spam Craaig's tourney thread)
Joe: I have soo much stuff, a lot of it experimental crap...err...prac-tical stuff. As far as bots, I'm like Trov, where I try out a new design and then see how it works, but once I know then I move on to another new project... SOW is one of several, but since Phil was also interested in the potential of SOWs, I followed up on it. Most designs I have tried are not efficient, just new/different. There's a new design for RAW-2 that may be or not be good; Pys (sympathy to him) and I are working together as a 'team' effort. He's a better regular bot builder for sure. I'm just trying some exp coding stuff to see if it helps...(Sage has been very helpful here too..).
BTW: I wanted to send you my whole game (about 3.5 gigs) of stuff so you can use whatever you'd like for your new game version. Better than collecting dust... There are hundreds of abnormal bot designs in there. Many are un-kosher coding/gmf freaks....Easier than posting them. I started Mad's Mods to show some of these experimental tweaks, but I just don't have time to post these things these days. Duh, I was going to start a thread on Evolution or Design, but I just can't follow through as of right now. People are waiting on the RAW-2 arena, so add that in there too....while daily answering question here on the forum.... So, if you'd like to PM/IM me your Ausie address, I'll send it over so you can see and also use anything in there you like.

the real Toro was incredibly powerful but a very tiny arc it was more like a burst piston firing upwards
if memory serves it won a SHW rumble via immobilizing every competitor
T-Minus was another good bot from there team but Matador wasnt that good :neutral: shows the competitiveness of the heavyweight class compared to others

one question I have with Toro is how high does the flipper open ? is it only a small amount like the real Toro ?
and Naryar, Revolutionist is done with FBS_1.py
