It was neither funny nor soul crushing, this must be said. Your powers are weak. Less Evil Overlord and more Sir Benevolent right now.
Savior of Love out.
PAH, YOU ARE DISGUSTINGLY TACKY TO ME! SAVIOR OF LOVE? WHAT A PATHETICALLY PRETENTIOUS TITLE!

Now I want to build moar gutripping pokers.
I had one for RA2 Olympics London, and it's facing Gauche, as it happens. Hopefully mine will win, as it's got more damaging weps.

I'm pretty sure ACAMS is screwing with us

Nah... He's being completely serious.

Venko and Firebeetle and all the rest of our RA2 Gods came back to GTM just for this BotM. It's a reunion.
OMG I don't stand a chance next time :P

  • So, for every spin motor (Motor that goes around, burst motors have a linear swinging motion) you need 1 ant battery.
  • Piglets are weapon motors, not drive motors. You could use the NPCs or any any motor with 'Drive' in it's nam
  • Build to the weight limit, always (800 for HW, 399 for MW, 249 for LW). Make sure you're within 10 for that, at least.
  • And always make the chassis as small as possible, so that all the components only just fit in.
Have fun in GTM!
Damn, you're good at sweet talk :P
But that's the advice I'd give. I'd also try and get some armour underneath (if you try halfsheets, they have an attachment point that would let you mount it on the bottom of your chassis.

I disagree (that's twice in two days haha)... From testing, the weight saved from bursted drive allows you to provide protection and enough weapons. TBH I think he did slightly overkill on the weapons. With a re-build it can be shallower and more protected.
Protection for your front isn't worth it if your wheels are easy to take out due to being too compactly placed.

There's no point to having it so small, HS will probably rape it. Enlarge the front end so you can make you wedge thinner and try and get a chassis mounted drive setup, because there's no benefit to not having one on a LW as you really don't need more weapons or anything.

And actually, to address the whole impatience thing we had going on here, last night I spend 4 hours straight AIing around 12 teams and making splashes. I went through 2 Alien films, just because I knew if I was left with just the laptop doing it, I'd be driven mad.

Would you like emotional support with that ?
PAH, COMPASSION FROM YOU? YOU TRULY HAVE GOTTEN PATHETIC.
Your sarcasm detectors need fixing, fool.

YOUR ABILITY TO USE SARCASM WAS POORLY EMPLOYED. IT WAS NEITHER FUNNY NOR CRUSHING UPON HIS SOUL, AND THUS IT WAS USELESS! MUCH LIKE YOUR FESTERING EXISTENCE, SLIME!

I just read two pages of complete retardation and have lowered my own IQ enough to be in a vegetative state for the night...

See you mother****ers in the morning.

I see you've read Twilight lately  :coolface
At least it's not 50 Shades Of Grey.

*Looks through the Racing games*

-DiRT (poor)
-Need For Speed (Only Most Wanted is good)
-Ridge Racer (Ridge what?)
-NASCAR Racing (meh)
-Mario Kart (Sure, why not?)
-F-Zero (meh)
Mario Kart isn't a traditional racer but it's good fun.
Maybe Burnout would be a good replacement for Ridge Racer.

It's in best Valve game.

FALCON PAUWNCH.

Also Metroid is on there twice.
Super Metroid and Metroid Prime. I personally figured they were different enough in style for it not to be such an issue, as well as the rather different themes and mood between the two.

Ianh, I don't care about how much you are butthurt over subjectivity, but I'll redirect you to Rock Paper Shotgun, Errant Signal, Extra Credits and Total Halibut. They all are more qualified than you or I. Read, Watch, gain enlightenment.
 
Back to topic:
 
Half the goddamn tournies nowadays are pointless gimmicks, but this is the first one that transcends stupid into almost maliciously dumb.
 
RA2 olympics? Jesus.
 
Noobwarz, KoK, See no evil and were mostly okay because it was mainly in-game gimmickry that was acceptable.
 
ELBITE and Annihilator was bracket gimmickry.
 
This? RA2 Olympics is the least imaginative tournament I've ever seen. I tolerate the bad gimmick tourneys because they have a little inspiration. This has none. If you are going to go for a gimmick, at least try. At least come up with something original.
 
Hell, I think someone already did this. Massimov just slapped "Ra2 Olympics" as a name at some stupid, bandwagoning grasp at getting attention. Screw this tourney, screw the host and screw anyone who would have made this if Massimov didn't.
It's not a gimmick, that implies some sort of actual effectual catch on how you build. It's more of a theme than anything :P

This is a bit better. System Shock was only a vague choice but I'd vote if if I hadn't already voted Bioshock.

Looks gnarly. Needs bottom protection but that's some damage potential right there.

Lol FF3 (actually all FF) got some weird game mechanics.  Those defense stat count by % so early on defense is useless and late game you become GOD and everything deals 1 damage (if properly set up).

As for magimaster, just cast berserk on him (or more like, on yourself to be reflected onto him)....  He will still cast that dumb ultima when he dies so you either need a lot of HP (you over-level) or you kill him by sapping all his MP (yes he dies with 0 MP).
I used reraise, since I'd heard about that last attack before. I have beaten him by using Rasp and Osmose as well, which was fun.

Reflect is your friend  :gawe:
Unfortunately he has his own reflect which he uses to reflect attacks onto you.
Getting Celes to multicast Ultima works well though. Tbh compared to my other characters she's OP (she weilds 2 swords (Genji Glove), an Ultima weapon and Zantetsuken, and a master scroll, so she gets 8 attacks with them. Made fighting the Storm Dragon possible :D And fighting the white dragon easy :D
