It does look quite interesting, like a kind of virtual Lego set of some kind.
Although I'm wondering why you need the disembodied pair of breasts in the corner.

Guys, help me... I'm not allowed to use computer on this weekend... What I'm gonna do? I only have my phone... 
Well, it's Finland, you could go skiing or something. Draw stuff, build things out of k'Nex (what I did), stuff like that.

Nah, properly invertible this time. Uses more or less the same AI as Urjak's Bane series. I'm not really sure if I should rotate the extenders upwards, or if that would expose them to popups too much.

Because we've probably centered in on the most efficient SnS design, and everyone seems to copy it. There was that one Pwnator made a while back that was also a rammer. And Ion, that's a sort of SnS.
You could call it House of Cards, perhaps.

The nonexistent bots being immediately eliminated is an occurrence in the BattleBox arena. It happens when you try to play a Battle Royal, because there are only two proper start points, the red and blue squares. The other two are out in space somewhere, which is why they get eliminated straight away.
A robot starting high up normally happens if something has been built a distance underneath the chassis. The alternative of this is the robot starting through the floor, and dropping through until the chassis reaches it, then just sitting there.
Robots flying around the arena is what is known as a "havok bomb", caused by the instability of the physics engine. It happens when there are either a lot of flails on a robot, or when a motor has been knocked off. Sometimes the cause is unclear, but there's no way aroudn this, unfortunately.
Hopefully this helps. =)

Middleweight version.  397.9, 2 Niftys, 1 SnapperII. Broadly the same setup as last time, except the Snapper's on its side to accomodate the extra HPZ.

Back on topic.
My personal opinion is that rule will need to be changed
Because of the rule that means:
No hi-fiving
No hugging between close friends
No 'safe horseplay
No touching others when getting through crowded areas
No handshaking
No tapping somebody on the shoulder to get their attention
And at the end of the day you will need physical human interaction to get through school and work life.
Anyone agree?
I pretty much agree with this. Although I imagine it's to stop people being punched or something. But yeah, physical interaction is a part of everyday life, there's no real way of getting around it, until teleports are invented.

Maybe his brain is like the game of Boggle. You hit him on the head, and he produces obscure sentences.
Nah, he's probably a clever bot...
2 + 2 = Fish.
no 2+2= baked potato
no 2+2 = potato battery
No, Today 2+2= llama...
TWO PLUS TWO WILL ALWAYS EQUAL FISH.

Not bad. Few things can be done to improve it, though.
Firstly, you could rotate the ME's to all face outwards, so you don't have to use the poly extenders on top. That'll save you 8kg right off the bat. You could also move the motors and wheels inward, so there's less chance of them being hit, and protect the chassis a little. I might consider dropping to Minis, it should still be invertible, and pretty much just as fast. That will give you another 8kg, that's 16kg to either upgrade the armour (which might be prudent, given how fragile it is), or add some extra weaponry.

LW is slowly turning into DBP3. Whether that's good or bad, I'm not sure.
MW Popup seems alright, but the chassis could definitely be shrunk. That could save you some weight for frontal defenses. Is it a true popup or a regular popup?

New topic- all of a sudden, I feel the urge to beat another GTMer at Ten-pin Bowling.
If Wii sports had online multiplayer...
Meh, It's OK, but I'm better at actual Bowling. Granted it has helped my IRL technique, but whenever I bowl on Wii Sports, it always seems to veer off to the left.
With me, it's the other way around. Must be to do with my right-handedness. =P

Some people are so stupid that they are not worth the air that they breathe.

What a <expletive>ing idiot. Normally I'm quite tolerant about religious people, but it's people like this that make me struggle to understand why people would turn to religion as an alternative to logic.

Looks spectacular. I'm not a fan of the skin, but that's my only complaint.

fracture and nfx compete to beat joeblo
i called it
Well, JoeBlo has 11 BOTM wins, this is Fracture's first BOTM win, and I'm currently on 7. Clickbeetle's on 9, so he's a more likely candidate than Fracture and myself to top JoeBlo's tally. According to my maths. Which may or may not be entirely wrong.

SKBT and I attempted to disprove everything.  Meanwhile, I'm taking a look at Hypercubes and Klein Bottles. I feel as though I could make a moving hypercube skeleton, provided I got the joints right.

It seems to be the members that arrive, post once, and leave that keep lowering the count. But hey ho. At least there's a good gathering of regular attendees here.
No I will not feed your kittens.
I do not follow.
They are more than capable of opening their own west coast surf shop!
Yes, yes they are. Here, have a ball.
