We could all commentate the same match.


It'd be easier to see our spin on it.

EDIT: I'll get my track for commentary done ASAP. Have the worst sore throat right now. Getting a new mic tonight

I love this idea, and have wanted us to do something like this for a long time, I never wanted to call for it because this would be a huge Undertaking and challenge for me to do alone.

Also, I'd like to throw my hat into the ring for Commentating if its live stream. I'm currently studying Sports Broadcasting/Play by Play and am looking for a college for it. It'd be good on me, and I'd love to help out.

I think we should ditch the draft format/idea should be Each user who wants in owns a team of a LW, a MW, and a HW. Each week teams are assigned to fight their scheduled opponent in a 16 week schedule. You get points for the rounds you win (If you win MW and LW, 2 points, The guy who won the HW match gets 1 point)

Lastly, Make 2 leagues/divisions Kinda like the American/National league in Baseball. A European based and an North American Based League. 16 People can apply for each team in their respective territories league. Some dispute and discussion may be needed though for people in places such as Australia and where they could go, who don't fall into either margin.

For the playoffs the top 4 teams from Each League advance to the playoffs. The 1st round (QuarterFinals) will be 2 out of 3 games, The Division Finals (SemiFinals) Will be 3 out of 5. The final championship could either be 3 out of 5 or 4 out of 7.

Throwing my 2 cents in, Looking forward to this and hope we can get this going.

Who do we know is coming back or applying?

We know Bite Force, beta, Chomp, Hypershock, Nightmare, Overhaul, Tombstone, Witch Doctor, and Wrecks are all intending to come back.

We know that Team Whyachi is as well, with a new Son of Whyachi.

Which new teams do we know are applying. I know Mauler has expressed interest, and Team Storm may be working for a sponsor. Anyone else?

I'm mildly impressed at how long you've been here but yet haven't got the basics.

Never been one to make excuses, but I've never really applied, or done much showcase work in the past, which I guess is why I never have had the "Basics"

Thanks for all the advice everyone. I'll try to find time to edit together the SoSA family tonight. That way I can get onto my new robots.

who even allowed a spinner in that arena

Mother Russia.


Wasnt that impressive of a spinner though.

Well, I don't really use Customs much anymore. Probably should quit posting in the customs thread.

Anyhoo, lets roll on.

I'm just going to knock these guys out 1 by 1, then I'll do a post on my signature bot later this week



BIG TEX was my 1st SHW for TexBots and 1st SHW in general. Its pretty much a SHW version of Midland Monster (which was for HelloFace's Spring Tournament) It was suppose to be in Battlebots but never saw the light of day for one reason or another.


Dallas was Texbot's 1st HW, and led on to the inspiration of Steel of San Antonio. Pretty much ran on 5 ramming spikes, which in hindsight shouldve all been Razors. It Split Decisioned in Battlebots, but lost.


Midland Monster, Which I was talking about earlier. It did kinda poorly in Helloface's tournament. Pretty much standard VS


Lastly its Textanic, Which was going to be a MW I used often for Battlebots and one of Kurt's random tournaments. Pretty much never saw the light of day due to nobody knowing how to AI it properly.

I'll show off the San Antonio Family later.

I just looked back at the old NFL/MLB Style AI Pack I was going to do, Good Times. Minus the refusing advice part.  :thumbdown

 Thought I'd Show you more of what I do now. I premade a few Showcase bits in intention to post them but never got to it. Texbots is getting a rebrand soon Anyhow, so might as well get these guys out of the way.

Lets get the LWs of Texbots out of the way 1st. I hate making LWs, as I feel like I never have the correct ammount of room for them.



Heres the 1st Lil' Amarillo, which got it's butt whipped in one of the Battlebots Tournaments by a Flamethrower. Nothing much to see there.

And heres Amarillo Evo, more or less the best LW I've made, but it isnt saying much.

Is that supposed to be an obstacle, or just a loose floor panel?

I think a loose floor panel.

This was apparently some Russian event. A lot of the robots look really cool (though not being as competent, but I wont give them sh** because look at India) and a few of the Robot Wars Heavyweights came to fight as well

 This thread screams GTM so much, some ****wagon like HA being his usual cancerous self, running around for attention making me wonder why we ever let him free.
 The new guy who seems pretty likeable screwing himself over and not realizing it.
 People who have been on both of these ends in the past looking at this and are crying
 And the mods who are questioning why they ****ing unbanned HA (atleast thats what I hope they're doing)


Tournament though, I think it''d be best to run 2 tournaments, One for more IRL Builders and one for the infinite razor cluster****s yall find so entertaining.

Everyones happy then

Discussion / Re: Need some advice on a weapon for my new VS.
« on: July 21, 2015, 03:01:31 AM »
I would suggest trying the Frenzy hammers if you can fit them on. I have had a fair bit of success using them in a horizontal spinner before. Or just trying the different type of hammer heads that are avalible. Unfortunatly all of the teeth I have tried always break off too easily, so I would not bother trying those.

I've never considered FrenZy hammers before, prob won't fit but sounds like a fun idea for a future bot.

Thanks!
