She would not be amused if you were amused by her not being amused.


I am not amused at her being not amused, therefore she can not be amused at me thinking I am amused at her being not amused.

Man manu is now dead, MUAHHAHHAHHAA!!!


Actually, I imagined my Reverse Falcon Punch would hurl Man Manu off the GTM Stage at 327% Damage. Then he comes back onto the stage with 1 Stock Remaining.

Cheap match outcomes.

Notably Mr Claws and a few fights in Clash Cubes 2, as well as Reier's first loss in WRL 1.


Well actually, Naryar, the pits don't open until 1:30 into the match, allowing a reasonable amount of time for a good battle, with the pits opening up as part of an exciting climax to the battle. They can also be turned off with the "Hazards off" button before you enter the match, so they're not there if you don't want them in the fight. Besides, they're mainly there because of three factors...

1) Pits are some of my favourite hazards.
2) To give Weaker Flippers, Popups and Rammers a chance against Spinners and Hammers.
3) I find they're only cheap if they're used to beat a good robot immediately, with a cheap Grabber/Pusher robot (EG. Tough As Nails, from Robot Wars)


But it's all a matter of opinion, I guess. I mean, this is only a small example of the debate over pits. Whilst I like Pits, you do not.
Either way, I want to keep them, but I'll be willing to think about other lag-reducing, fight-satisfaction-increasing ways to increase my arena ideas.

What about ME?:bigsmile:



Patience, Young Grasshopper.  Badnik's claim was just an estimate, meaning I might not necessarily make it to the semis. For all we know, I could crash out in the first round! So anyway, it's just an estimate. All will be revealed in the Tournament itself.

Maybe get rid of 1 or 2 hazards if possible just so there's enough room to fight too (and not too much lag).


OK, I guess I could think about that.

Admittedly though, I do really like the layout so far, but I guess I could scale some of the "Out-of-the-floor" hazards down, though. I mean, those hazard panels dwarf SFTW in that pic! :biggrin:

Oh, and as for a theme and paintjob, I was thinking something along the lines of a metallic and dark blue colour scheme, like in the Starcore Combat Arena- I mean, those stripes along the edges of the arena are crying out to be painted an electric blue! :smile:

Interesting concept!


Thank you, Natef! I'm glad you like it. Do you think there is any way I could improve it, though?

StarFox93, Why do you make so many time BUMPS!?


It's GoldenFox93, man. And also, I'm sorry about the bumps, I'll mark them in future. However, I once heard that it's OK as long as it contributes to the discussion. If it doesn't, it's not. Besides, I do admittedly have a tendency not to look at post dates...I'll try to look in future, too.

1 YEAR BUMP! Sorry, everyone...

Anyway, here is my idea for an arena. I call it...


:gunz:  GF93's Killing Zone!  :gunz:

Anyway, those numbers on it represent the Hazards. Here's a Runthrough of each one...

1) The Pits of Despair
Do exactly what they say on the tin. They eliminate any robot unlucky enough to fall, drive, or get pushed into them. However, they remain closed at the start of the battle, covered up by flat, heavy lids, so they don't interfere with gameplay, like the closed pits in the Octagon do. The lids slide away after 1:30 has passed, and can play a key role for a Flipper or a Rammer to win against a Spinner or an Axe robot.

2) The Spikes of Agony
Another old favourite! However, the spikes here come in a set of eight, and fire upwards much more powerfully, making them more capable of causing damage to a contender's underside, and are also better at flipping some robots over.

3) Blades of Annihilation
These Razor-sharp circular saw blades pop up from below the floor. Unlike the Saw Hazards in the Combat Zone, they appear in a group of four, and are more capable of slicing up robots (Using simular blades from in the Bot Lab: Maybe Chewblades?), and/or lifting them off the ground, making them useful for lifting up Robots with a low Ground Clearance, or tearing off loose attachments. Surprise!

4) Corner Posts
"Corner Posts?!", You might be thinking. "What good could THEY possibly do in battles?"
Well, besides holding the arena together, the posts are heavy, and can do slight damage, much like the bumpers in the Antweight Arena do.

5)  Out of the Arena
This Olympic-Sized pit surrounds the arena, and instantly eliminates any robot unlucky enough to end up outside the arena boundaries, marked by thick, transparent walls. They're high enough to keep robots in, but low enough to be flipped over with a good flipper. This means that it takes more skill to win by OOTA, and thereby battles between a flipper and a robot with high ground clearance don't end immediately, due to the unlucky latter robot finding itself out. Oh, and just in case you're wondering why it's a Hexagonal shape, it's to make it harder for Flippers to OOTA from the Corners, and because I liked the shape. Surely those are good enough reasons, eh? :biggrin:

I also included a little picture of "Spinner from the West" to show the scale of the Arena, and also to give a basic idea of the starting areas (Each robot starts in a corner).
I didn't incorporate much detail (Such as drawing on the Arena floor), as I wanted to show my basic ideas, and if people liked it, maybe draw a plan for details.

And that's about it! :smile:
