no it looks like a mess now

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

also what weight issues ? you can simply mod the poly sheets to be skinned like metal...

This is true, but I'm lazy.

Would look cooler if it was metallic instead of all transparent though.

It was originally, but the aforementioned weight issues cropped up.

I'll have a go at rebuilding it to be metallic. Might might it more compact.

Pretty certain my HS isn't called D. D. Flipper, neither does it actually have a flipper.

Is that a Mazakari vs Rob Collins fight I see at the bottom? Excellent.

Looking forward to seeing who these partners of mine are.

So I can't BFE components onto the bot even if it stays within the realistic rule while fighting?

Pretty certain a lot of tournaments have that rule.

Anyway, those rules are nowhere near finished.

Just check you've covered everything in the How To Host A Tournament guide, and you may wish to clarify 'realistic' building :P

Good point....

Making adjustments now, and creating my entry.

Expect final ruleset and poll up tonight.

Rebooting this idea.

Rules are up, nobody's pointed out any issues with them, and I can safely say that if you send a robot that you think would qualify, I shall check it when you send it, rather than posting a list.

Mr. Craaig, what else do I need to do in order for this to be ready for a poll and all that jazz?

Talking about Tournament hosting...

I'd be happy to continue mine if I knew how to AI servos/crushers... All I need is the .py and controls

Swap Kan Opener with a robot in a later heat for now?

Rob, stop posting anything less than basic advice. Seriously.

Avalanche already posted that it worked and thanked Rob for it, so what's the problem?

Question was answered and he got what he wanted from the thread. :S

I'm not having a go, just putting in my two cents.

I think some of the hostility may be due to the fact that this is going to be (or meant to be) a weekly upload.

Now, I understand that getting the first upload up might be delayed due to reasons (hell, I never even got the first episode of my display tournament up), but I'm guessing a lot of these guys are concerned that this won't be done until late 2015 or so if every upload takes a month, and people are gonna want to see splashes as well.

Would it be simpler to just scrap the weekly upload and just get them up 'whenever you can'? Craaig has taken 3 times as long with Robot Wars 2013 (to the point where it's.....not actually 2013 anymore ;) ), but hasn't garnered this reaction, possibly because when he does start uploading, it's not going to be restricted and tied down to one a week.

Maybe I'm not making sense, but it's possible that once the first one is out, the others will be easier and quicker, and it might be beneficial to drop the weekly schedule to keep it moving quicker. Just get them out when you can, even if it means three heats come along during a quiet week and then nothing gets uploaded for another two because you're busy again.

Try putting a small DSL disc at the end of that extender on the wheel, that might look interesting.

O god, if you're competing with Heavy Metal my flipper has literally zero chance of getting under you. Nurf skirts. :c

I don't think it's too overpowered at that angle. But what do I know?

Axe looks cool though, albeit the extender work around the base looks a tad messy with the T (?) connector(s).

Yeah, I might tidy that up, I'm not 100% happy with the base armour.

I take it you modified the burst to go 180?

Yes'm.
