Aren't all FBS Crawlers? :P (in Stock anyways)

But now we know what you built, so hopefully someone else will have also made a FBS of some sort.

HEY LOOK IT'S NARYAR'S BOT

If you do, you might want to keep some sort of journal in Games or Playground, as it's quite entertaining to read about others' Nuzlocke challenges...it gets very emotional when a loved Pokemon like the starter faints.

I needs an opinion.
I feel like playing a pokemon game, but idk which one to play :P
1. Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness
2. Some other Mystery Dungeon Game
3. Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald (New Game)
4. Ehh...

Bonus: Do the Nuzlocke Challenge on any regular game (I recommend those listed in 3.). The basic rules are as follows:

-Fainted Pokemon are "dead" and are released or stored in a graveyard box
-You cannot catch any Pokemon other than the first one that you see in an area (each route, cave, city, etc. is a different area). You may choose whether you want to ignore duplicates/evolutionary lines or not (I did). If you accidentally kill the first Pokemon you see, too bad. Eggs, fossils, starters, etc. do not count, but legendaries do, meaning you have to go through an entire cave without meeting a single Pokemon other than the legendary if necessary (Hint: Repels). This still applies at the beginning of the game when you have your starter but have no Poke Balls.

There are some extra rules that I've played with, in order from most to least important for the full experience:

-Nickname every Pokemon with a (meaningful) name. The purpose of this whole thing is to have you bond with your Pokemon since they are dead once they faint, and nicknames definitely help strike some cords when a Pokemon dies.
-No healing items or berries may be used on Pokemon. (TMs might be included, but I didn't do that)
-You may not turn off the game unless it is RIGHT after you have saved. Likewise, if you save, you MUST turn off the game right after.
-No using the Day Care Centre. How can you bond with your Pokemon if they are raised by someone else?

Half the time I land right side up and half the time I'm thrown OOTA so I can't see the bot when I try it in the Octagon. D: (plus going back to the menu and starting an exhibition match, choosing the bots, arena, etc. is pretty tedious)

La Muerta Blanca

I am currently sitting in front of a computer, scared witless. Any moment now, I am going to be killed.

Today, a friend of mine told me a story.

His aunt had taken care of him since he was a small boy, and she told him last night about how his parents died. He did a very fair imitation of her (I knew them both pretty well).

"They were doing mission work in some nasty little South American country when a man burst into the mission hospital one night, terrified out of his mind. He told them that his sister had been killed by a Muerta Blanca, and that he was certain that it was coming for him next. What is a Muerta Blanca? Apparently, it was some sort of bogey-man, something like that dumb chupacabra or something. They called it the White Death or the White Girl, because it was the soul of someone who hated life so much that they came back in their shrouds to kill those who told of them.

The man had been told about the vengeful spirit by his sister hours before her death. It was a girl with dead, black eyes that wept bile. The thing moved without ever actually moving its legs, and it stalked its victims back to their homes. Now, if you weren't already aware that this thing was following you, once it got back to your house, it would start knocking on your door...

Once for your skin, which she'll use to patch her own decaying flesh.
Twice for your muscle, which she'll gnash her teeth on between victims.
Thrice for your bones, which she'll use to make knives to pick her teeth and kill her victims.
Four times for your heart, which she'll wear around her neck.
Five times for your teeth, which she'll polish and keep in a box.
Six times for your eyes, which she'll see the faces of your loved ones through.
Seven times for your soul, which she'll eat whole. You can never pass while you're in her stomach.

She has to repeat this on any mirror or door between you and her.

You can try to outrun her, but she's faster than the fastest man...and if you leave your home while she's knocking on your door, she won't be so courteous when she catches up to you.

Now, the man was so certain that this thing had killed his sister that he had tried to tell the police, but they would not listen. Next, he had tried to tell his priest, but the priest turned him away when he saw that the thing was following him now - oh, that's right, I forgot about that - it can only get you if you tell someone else about it, or you saw it kill someone else. The man, after finishing his tale, stole a car from the mission, and was never seen again."

Apparently, his mother and father had immediately called his aunt about this when it happened. They were found the next morning, skinned and dismembered. Their bodies were covered in tiny, child-like handprints.

His aunt was really drunk the night before, and had told him about that. he told me this story early in the morning today at school, before the cops arrived. His aunt had been murdered that night. I called him later that day, and he told me that he was being chased by someone and that they were now knocking on the door. I told him to stop sh**ting me.

He held the phone away from his face for a minute and I could hear slow, deliberate knocking. A moment later, I heard the door rip from its hinges and the dying screams of my friend...

...Then a little girl's voice spoke over the line. "WITNESS." I hung up.

Three minutes ago, someone started knocking on my door. She has to knock 28 times on my front door, 28 times on the mirror in the hall, and another 28 times on the door to my bed room. She's doing it slowly...I think she wants to scare me some more, let me know that my death is just moments away. I will not run - I couldn't get to my car in time anyway. She started knocking on my bedroom door a minute ago; she should be done any moment.

Nice knowing you guys, it's been fuy5

Would it be possible to have a bot start, if needed, (i.e. a command should activate it) upside down in the Test Garage? It would be rather convenient when you're testing for invertibility.

I'm quite lenient and enjoy any decent movie, so usually my favourite is just the one I watched last. :P

Record for fastest challenge ever? :O (the time spanned from topic creation to video upload, not the match)

Je peux hôter...check my French, Naryar. Host is hôter, right? /random guess

The DSL Tournament Arena is a good OOTAble arena. For reference, it shows up as RA2T#2 Tournament Arena or something in-game. I'm guessing best 2 out of 3?

I'd recommend saying "The bot's primary weapon must be a flipper" rather than what you have there as one of you could just build a popup which still has a flipper.

Sorry for the low quality, I was in a rush to get it done, as I'm sure everyone has just about no patience left by now.

Edit: Reuploaded in HD.

1177
Sooooo is that a yes or a no? It doesn't matter anyways; this doesn't really count as a challenge because you've got your bot done and submitted.

1178
I'm withdrawn as well.
You sure? It'd be disappointing to have this go from a rumble to a regular 1-on-1. I'll have the video up soon and you can do another challenge if you'd like right now since you already have the bot submitted anyways.

1179
It's a three-way now? :o

Give me a few hours.
