I think it would be a lot nicer if you moved the drive motors up one or two ticks, to reduce the ground clearance. You didn't exactly take a flattering screenshot either :P

So the 3 burst flipper defeats the enemy team because they all didn't have wedges.
What a ****ing surprise. Greatest robot of all time, clearly. /s
Not sure why Badger's too proud of himself for making this travesty.
:> Don't worry about kix's 3 burst flipper, or the fact that it got outwedged by a static wedge. Maybe if you understood that I only used 3 bursts in order to get the proper width for the flipping plate, and that the number of bursts is literally 100% irrelevant anyway, you wouldn't be so salty.

Just sent my rumble line up, let's see who wins now in bizarro world.
There IS something wrong with a 2 Moros blades stacked in each other, however.
What I saw, they weren't stacked, rather placed right next to each other...
I dunno how 09 interpreted "stapled together" as "stacked inside each other", but yeah, all I did was make the bar thicker, I didn't think it would be this big a deal
Sorry man, my bad. I thought by stapled you mean't stacked, plus it looked only one bar thick to me, guess I have bad eyes or something.
"So making a flipper as powerful as one would be IRL is OP now" Yes, this is RA2 not real life, and besides, if we're going on that argument, what the hell kind of IRL flipper uses 3 pistons simultaneously? The problem here is that Paladin, while being cool looking enough to class as IRL, is on the verge of becoming tryhard. If this sort of 3 burst flipper was done by somebody less skilled (i'll ignore flipster because the fact is his swing arc on the flippers are very short, so it's not too powerful in practice), people would flip their sh**. And when Baconus built a 3 piston hammer bot, Badger did.
First of all, it's called "IRL" for a reason, so it does make some sense for it to be somewhat powerful. Next, I personally see nothing wrong if the bot is a bit tryhard when it looks dope. Obviously if someone is entering some butt ugly flipper that looked it came out of Battlebots that had 4 long bursts, then maybe. Also by saying you will "ignore Flipster" you are basically just cherry picking now to fit your argument dude. "Also, I'm fairly sure armour plates have the exact if not better stats that skirts so it's probably for the best he used skirts." That wasn't what I was referring to. I was referring to Demon complaining about Badger using skirt/metal hinges with small wedges on, but I said that I had no issue with that. Context, 09, context.
My bad then, small wedges really aren't skirts though. "Oh, and there's nothing un-IRL about slow and powerful flipper, mate." No. No there isn't. Precisely what is your point here? Sounds to me like you're running out of ideas for your copypasta, showing that your argument is not well founded. At all. Because i haven't mentioned this even once: My problem is with the 3 bursts, which is just dancing on the lines between IRL,Tryhard IRL and DSL-S imo. If a worse builder built a 3 burst flipper, people would be all over him.
My point is there really isn't any problem with the bot, as you said with the first line. On top of that, trying to use "3 bursts" as a reason just bad, since all different sizes of bursts have a different amount of power. For example, 3 Medium VDMA's used on his bot have a combine powered of 540 (180 each) while a bot using 2 Large bursts has a total power of 600 (300 each). So yeah, him using 3 smaller bursts is actually to your advantage, as there is less power and 3 burst motors need more batteries than just 2. "Sounds like people just got E X P O S E D for trying to get ez wins with a HS" Oh please. The irony of this is shocking: is the name Solaris ringing any bloody bells? You've literally got no point here, because your own team has won this tournament through usage of a 3 burst flipper with large arcs to maximize power, as well as using a Tombclone HS, in a arena where flippers were meant to have a hard time to flip robots out. It's almost as if nobody was expecting flippers, so Badger (and TGM, but he limited his swing arc like a proper lad) decided to get "ez wins with a" overly powerful flipper.
Not sure how it's ironic that my team got wins with a HS, the whole point of the statement was it's dumb for people to get upset at a flipper because they entered wedgeless HS and got flipped OOTA because of that. As for the "arena where flippers were mean't to have a hard time to flip robots out" part, Paladin wasn't flipping stuff acrossed the arena in the first 10 seconds and OOTA unlike my GTMC bot for example. Hell, it didn't even manage to flip you OOTA in a min, instead your bot got caught in the rails. Not sure why someone should be punished because they went for the unexpected and took advantage that nobody bother to build a counter. Finally, first you said the Swing Arc wasn't that big of a deal compared to the skirts, but now it seems to be your main arguing point against it. Wow. Impressive mathematics. This would seal your argument: Had you not missed the fact that the large beaters are not meant to deal damage, and are used to hold on the spike strips. They are literally right at the back of the jaw: they 'd barely scratch somebody's wedge if lucky. And also I was only referring to the spike strips in my argument, so this makes all of your calculations inherently unbalanced.
No, Jamied said they were used as extenders. The reason he used them, presumably, was that in the case that many of the spike strips were lost, he could try and ram with the beaters instead. but they aren't at the front of the bot: they are right at the back of the jaw where it's much more likely CS will end up stopping the robot with the part of the strips at the back, and where they won't get a flail boost.
I'm sorry man, but this is now just cherry picking. It doesn't matter if Jamied intended them to just hold the spike strips, they are still weapons and will do damage after the same spike strips you called fragile fell off. Double Layer weapon setups like that have been commonplace since you and me joined and have proved very effective many times over as after your first set of weapons fell off, you had another full set at full HP to clean up the other dudes damaged weapons. I'm not sure why you are trying to argue weapon setups against someone who has more experience anyways. BTW for future bot building help, flails don't boost concussion at all, so a concussion weapon like a beater wouldn't get any boost from the flail. I'm not even going to congratulate you for the victory, to be honest. You won through the luck of the draw: our team had no flippers, you did. You just scraped by with a close decision over MITP, and if JP or Executioner hadn't lost, we could have taken this tournament.
Dude, you could've just said GG everybody but now it really does look like you are just upset at the result of the tourney and basically giving Badger ammo. Also remember who said the tourney was basically luck in the first place.......... You see, the problem is there is not that much "strategy" involved, and this mainly comes down to luck 
But yeah, this thing could have easily gone the other way. I will say though IMO it was a big risk to send out 3 of your heaviest hitters into R1, and luckily Challenge managed to get a win over Jungle Fever which really helped my team in the long run, as Jungle Fever was probably going to be the hardest to flip and as you said yourself, the best bet you had against Paladin. Well, somebody thinks they're a big shot, don't they? You mean your TEAM won a tournament. Don't let this TEAM victory go to your head. It's a team victory because Paladin and Challenge took out the robots that could have annihilated you (Executioner, JP) before you got involved. I'll see you in the challenge board once I finish up with TheRoboteer. (Though Solaris was an excellent first entrant, I must add. But talking sh** this early in your time on GTM? Yeah, i'm going to enjoy beating you.)
I mean, his comment was kinda uncalled for, but if anything, Paladin and his bot Solaris really carried the team as a I screwed up and sent out Hitler R1 instead of Axe questions. Nothing wrong with the new dude giving out somes bantz after his first tourney win anyways. And you missed the point yet again: I was saying that those robots were bad by your impossibly high standards: Killshot's alright with some neat wheelguards, and a cool, sleek finish, but could do with more colour. Challenge is actually quite good with the way the weapon supports were made. AQL isn't absolute cancer, but it's not the best. Solaris is really cool but needs skin work done.
And you missed the point when I literally said " The "How about you consider" was just supposed to be an edited Copypasta tier of your post and not mean't to be taken that seriously" Yeah you shouldn't host an IRL tournament if you don't know what IRL means.
Everybody knows your are upset you lost/at me/at Badger, but taking it out on the host now is literally the dumbest thing you could possible do dude, which finally leds me to. *reply to Badgers flame bait*
Alright dude, you, me,and basically everybody else knows you are on your LAST chance on theses forums, you have been banned twice for reasons similar to this (For example, your first ban from which was just replying to Badger's flamebait). By now you should know better than to reply to that kinda of stuff. On top of that, there is your posts towards Neon and Gulden. If you really want to stay on these forums and not get banned, I highly suggest you just stop what you have been doing in this thread, The mods don't care if you want to just "prove them wrong" or w/e, what they care about is if you are actually going to behave for once. This is my last reply to this drama, as I think I have made myself pretty clear in this post what I mean't.
I have a response that beats all arguments here, but for the sake of ending the argument and avoiding a ban, i'll shut up. But don't take this as any confirmation of you "winning" the argument, take this as me being held back.
You should give us that response since you haven't said anything remotely convincing yet Anyway thanks for the tournament Gulden; neat mechanic and very fast uploads. Hopefully we get light vs dark pt. 2 at some point!

Yeah you shouldn't host an IRL tournament if you don't know what IRL means.

Not gonna quote because nobody wants to read that garbage twice.
All I'm gonna say is that having 3 separate hammer arms isn't IRL, at least in the way baconus presented it. Having 3 actual burst motors is fine in my book, because RA2 doesn't allow for a single burst to be powerful enough for IRL standards. Also, if I had wanted Paladin just to be tryhard broken I would've given it hitler-style wedges that weren't ass, made it 2WD with not terrible drive motors and saved a ton of weight on unnessecary armour etc. It's supposed to be tank inspired - slow but with heavy armour and a powerful weapon. Hopefully that design inspiration comes across in the bot's aesthetics.
Let's be honest, you're only crying about it because you lost to it.
And NeonCalypso's bot is better than yours :>

Holy sh** the dark team tears are delicious. Why are you all (by which I mean some of you) so damn salty? Right: I dispute the Solaris VS MITP decision. I'd like somebody who was notguldenflame to rejudge the fight, preferably a tournament mod.
Why? Because I honestly don't feel like it's a good idea to have the tournament host act as judge when his robot is in the tournament, and especially when he's picked a side to be on. And this has happened before: Yugitom made judges decisions for Pangolin's fights during Death Battle because DemonOfTomorrow was the builder of Pangolin and the host of Death Battle simultaneously.
(Image removed from quote.)
You didn't seem to have a problem when he literally judged his own one sided fight against Jungle Fever and nobody else on your team has a problem with the result, seems like someone is a bit bootyblasted that they are now losing after all the sh** talking he was doing earlier and have his strategy E X P O S E D. (Image removed from quote.)
Firstly, my sh**talking has been labelled as intentional and playing up to the fact I'm in Team Dark. You on the other hand are just trying to get a ride out of me and get me banned. Yeah, no.. And no, I didn't, because there was no point in disputing it, and I expected most fights to be straight knock outs or ootas if paladin was involved, and I've mostly been right in that assumption. Also, he's already accepted I've made a valid point, so perhaps it might be a good idea to quiet down, especially after I ceased sh**talking once the situation got worse, which just leaves you as the arrogant one especially considering I planned ahead and informed everyone that I was playing up the natural villain role because of being a Team Dark member, and ensured that people realised I wasn't being personal about it. You talk about game being "bootyblasted" but you try to mock me with anime images and seem to take a personal issue with the not-actually-hating-the-enemy sh**-talking. Let's put it this way: people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Il leave it at that, as I need some sleep for once.
Aggression: What ratio? It's literally how many hits did each bot do? just ****ing count em.
Ratio is amount of hits. 68 hits for solaris is pretty much definite, however, I didn't really know how to count the wedging of MitP.
I'm personally ok with a re-judging. This was really close.
Besides, if I'll rig anything, I usually do it so I'll lose. Back in WCR, I rigged it so BattleBreaker didn't win against Blizzard in the rumble, so rng didn't decide the winner.
Thanks for not throwing a sh**fit at my dispute.
Didn't read your essay explanations, but if you seriously think that the robot that sustained no damage lost to the bot which lost its weapon and a wheel, you're deluded.

I'm not the only one who thinks Paladin is a tryhard robot, right? 3 bursts with a big arc and small wedges on hinges is total BS in my opinion. I'm all for efficiency in IRL, but not like this

Agreed. 3 bursts, and they are all at max arcs. The hinges are less of an issue imo, I mainly have issue with skirt sheets.
Says the guy with 3 overhead spinners on his team, and a bot with nothing but hinges on his team.
Before you go and try and slam our Team Captain for factors outside his control, how about you consider the fact that it was you who set up the luck-based system that led to 3 overhead spinners being on our team, and it was you who accepted CS, despite either knowing that it was over powered, or failing to test it properly to see if it was overpowered. Oh, and there's nothing un-IRL about overhead spinners, mate. There IS something wrong with a 3 piston flipper however.

OI Crocodile Smile is a bit more then "nothing but hinges" its meant to be a fun bot but if people that of it as what you said then I'm disappointed
How about "Nothing but an overgloried flail ram"
Blame Gulden for allowing it. Also, it's a fairly cool idea, and spikestrips aren't that durable, and you saw it get outwedged and flipped about the place by Paladin.
ITT: Children getting salty that my bot is sh**canning their entire team.  Cry about the flail ram before you start whinging about the powerful flipper. ty.

You must have a 480 and dont play in a group like he does!

> Pays extra for unlocked K cpu

???
And you should've got an AMD RX480 instead of a GTX1060 tbh
I will have you know!
That you may be right, I have no damn idea .... my oldtimers kicked in about 5-6 years ago i I don't think like I used to, BUT, my young game playing computer guru said that I should spend the extra $50 for the 1060 over the RX480 because it is worth the extra $$$$
ppppppppppptttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!
bite me! .... NO DON'T BITE .... I like it gentle now in my old age!
You should tell your young game playing guru that he's a mentally deficient fanboy, the 1060 and 480 are very, very similar in speed, with the 480 being faster in newer games. H170 boards can't overclock, Z170 boards can. The only reason to get a K CPU is because it has an unlocked multiplier for overclocking.

hurting someone's feelings != crime
http://injury.findlaw.com/torts-and-personal-injuries/intentional-infliction-of-emotional-distress.html
"...the actor must intend to cause severe emotional distress or know that severe emotional distress is likely to occur."
Get to the point where life is going so badly wrong that you'd rather end your own existence than suffer through another day: Not a victim.
This isn't really what I meant.
David Mitchell said a great thing about timorous and reckless people on WILTY. He said warnings are put in place in order to create order for the reckless people. However, that leaves the timorous ones in a state of 'perpetual terror'. So, I think that, even though rehab is very good and should be used with prisoners, I do believe punishment should exist as a deterrent to even commit any crime. So, in the end, in theory, all the timorous people won't even consider committing a crime, whilst the reckless ones are significantly deterred.
This is why i said some but not all. Was simply stating that punishment wasn't the only or best answer.
I should've said IMO. I'm fully aware that hurting someone's feefees can be a criminal offense. I think that that is really stupid, even in extreme cases.
