the bots in the latest trailer had intersecting components so I would probably say no.

One could argue that the short deadline hurts those who were not a part of the closed beta. Those involved would probably be far more adapt at ra3's system compared to the rest of the fourm who are just starting out.
I don't think that it matters at all, but a few members might feel otherwise. 1085

there's already a limited weight that was used for lra2, sparkey and i think hydro. it's just a gray name that says limited.

Maybe Goon could start putting *TRIGGER WARNING* at the start of all his posts. Might help reduce amount of HA related PTSD episodes that everyone seems to be struggling with around here.
Or you know, you could just add him to your ignore list if you don't like his posts. 1087

I would just treat the empty spaces as byes.
Pretty sure 09 posted his bot in his showcase, so i think he just needs to send it in 1088

Both lra2 and sparkey were allowed back after perm bans so I don't see why not. yeah sparkey ended up getting banned again but avalanche didn't turn out that bad.
as long as HA posts his racial hatred threads in the chatterbox and doesn't spam the main forum i really don't see the problem. 1089

those point pop-ups are absolutely disgusting.
Looks like hitboxes are off on some of the weapons. That one sawblade bot scores points before the blade even touches anything. 1091
Challenge Board / Re: WenXiangLee vs. Deadgenocide« on: May 02, 2016, 10:01:49 PM »
bridge of doom would have been an interesting fight.
Advice for DeadGenocide: Make your tribars both spin inward, it helps with dealing damage and trapping opponents.imo this only applies if you have a back trapper. without one, inward spinners will just make it easier for bots fly over the top. 1092

#1 poor but i think it's their first botm entry so it's not that bad.
#2 probably the best built of all the entries. great splash as well. #3 not really a fan of irl but this does look cool #4 mr bones wild vroom vroom #5 i dont think it needs three wedges. #6 Interesting design. has piglets for drive and is a little messy imo. 1093

Calling either n00b driving or hazards on.
Hammers benefit from having faster drive so I would try to get 4wd on this. Needs more armor if you want to stand a chance against any hs. Curving the hammer arm more would also help. Also, crush has single strength steel and not dsa. Might want to change the weight down to aluminum if you bfe'd the armor. 1094

they all suck and are poorly ai'd.
serious talk i think saber teeth and little metal friend have interesting designs that could be expanded upon if the .py was improved. and i admit the skins are pretty nice 1096

apparently the dentist, road rash, ambush, and MC Mixter Carr did not compete as well.
also, if you haven't seen it yet, the trailer for the pilot episode has been released 1098
