Something to do with a new Super Smash Bros game would be fantastic   ^^

Yes, I've seen that, unfortunately. I know this is probably a bit of a biased viewpoint due to me having pet cats, but I think that it's repulsive. I'll bet that that cat was a loving and faithful companion in real life, and I  think that it's horrible to have that done to it in return, being desecrated like that after death.
 
I don't consider it to be either a robot or a piece of art- just an open display of a rather sick person with no respect for animals.
The taxidermy was done with the owners consent. No need to go on an animal rights tangent.
Closer to animal welfare, actually- animal rights is for those PETA nutjobs.

Ziggo?
I think so- apparently the cat painted on its lid was based on the builder's pet.

IIRC, that (The Rodari-Shipka Battlezone) was the other arena in RA1 that Click found to be backwards-compatible with RA2. Quite interesting if I may say so, considering that it's in Outer Space rather than say, Pittsburgh or Las Vegas.

Come to think of it actually, I've just had a great idea to theme my Lightweight on. Got it after seeing this-

This sounds like Get Your Own Back for actors


IO recently found out what "Get Your Own Back" is, and I'd just love to see a celebrity edition.  Like someone could come on and say "Piers Morgan is too cruel on The X Factor, so I'm here to get my own back."  Realistically though, I can't see GYOB getting revived in any country except Australia.
OK, that sounds pretty good- particularly if they still use the Gunk Dunk    :laughing

The Queen does nothing besides sit on a throne and looks regal. Her life must be as boring as sh**
In the words of Frankie Boyle, "How does the queen know if she's on holiday? She doesn't <expletive>ing do anything."
 
And just to help Nar a bit, the English Queen does have some powers, but she elects not to exercise them. The only thing she really does is something involving a transition from one government to the next.

So why the hell do these silly englishmen still bother with a queen ? It seems like an useless relic of the past.

Tourism, I suppose. There's a fair amount of income from tourists going to see Buckhingham palace and so forth. I suppose it gives them some sense of national identity as well, in the same way the US seem to feel about their flag.
And likewise-

Although the Royals no longer Govern the country itself, they do have a number of different roles, as explained there.

Come to think of it actually, if I can find the file for Trial by Fire, it might be good for Series 6.

Really? From what I saw, apart from AAAAAAAAAAAAH COME ON (Or however you write it), all of them seemed pretty awesome.

But yes, I did come up against some damn good robots, there. Even with that, it makes me happy to know that it still held its own against them   :approve:

Mr. Punch vs. Zombie Pirate Ninja. =D
 
I reckon if a robot can beat ZPN, it's probably good enough to get into the main bracket. 'Cause ZPN is pretty fail, but it can still occasionally win.
Sounds good to me    :gawe:

Well, each to their own I guess- now all we need is Scourge's view on the matter, and we've got the whole GTM Mane 4's points on the Jubilee   =P

No it's 8 because if you have a 800.0 unit bot and you divide by 8, you get 100.0 which is the limit kg for HWs just like 800.0 is in RA2
OK then- I'll remember that for when I host a competition, actually    :gawe:

Well, at least it won some fights- it's fairly crap even by my standards these days, but it's got a cool name at least   ^^


(And it could still probably beat Sparkarse's entry)

Still, good to know that all three of the next series will be in Stock- I'm better there than I am in DSL (Unless of course you count IRL), so I should be able to compete in all three of the coming series   :approve:
