Sage, Clickbeetle is Clickbeetle. Therefore, he discovered it. Stop trying to take credit for the accomplishments of others.
I suppose you'll be trying to take credit for designing the first 36HS next too :O
sEFIUBsiefubaivubadlriubg EDIT: No, we were brainstorming ideas on AIM. Inf had to leave, and that night I built the first AC (i put a pic up somewhere in my showcase). Inf had come to the same design during school or something, and built the AC we all love the next day (mine was just a box chassis... he made it airtight). Technically we collaborated on it.

We're already doing Re-Stocked... why are you using the same names for bots if they won't resemble the originals at all?
Also, Vertigo, in the original game each team only had 3 bots, not six. I can't remember which AI pack edited that (starcore?) but if he's redoing the originals than it's only 3 bots.

Only thing I don't like about the Trov glitch is the playability of it
Though Click found a way to resolve the issue without actually lowering graphics quality..
NO. I FOUND THAT. and told click about it so he could use hummingbird in BBEANS. Damn click, stealing all the credit.... :P

Stock building has pretty much turned into a wedge war now, though. More specifically in the higher weight classes. LW's are usually dominated by spinners, but the lack of lightweight and efficient components makes it difficult to get a degree of diversity in Lightweight and sub-Lightweight robots. Middleweights can be either or, depending on how well they've been built, but it's almost inevitable going to be a ramplated popup winning a Heavyweight tourney in Stock. HS's just aren't capable of dealing enough damage by the time the opponent inevitable gets underneath them. Maybe they'll get one or two ramplates off, but that's about it. The only time a popup doesn't win a HW tourney is if another bot type has a better wedge.
But I digress. Metal Hinges were unknown territory at some point, and I'm guessing people didn't want to look like fools if they didn't work.
Um no. UnBEEtable is the best HW stock bot (in the combat arena at least). Perhaps 36HS aren't as good against popups as they should be, but the HS will usually win if using irons.

Pics or it didnt happen.
I bet its like... tiny chassis axle bots with no drive or batteries

Looks almost exactly like Inf's bot Exs or whatever. He entered it in RAW

So basically the whole motor extender work starts outwards and is exposed to a hit ?
Um... no. all the extender work is INSIDE the nifty battery. The axle is indestructible, but even if you could destroy is it's a very small target on the backside of the bot.

Image removed from quote?????
Maybe a good idea in like playground but honestly I quote my bots in my showcase all the time for ease of viewing and then if someone quotes just a picture to comment on it, you have no idea what they're talking about.

Oops, I meant theres a 20cm coming off of it where one motor is attached (the one facing up) and then another 20cm attached to it that hold the motor facing down. But technically both motors are attached to the first 20cm, even if there's another extender.

Nicee. I need to reskin those square extenders though. They just bring an unprofessional look into the bot... even though we know the bot is awesome
ALSO, BE ON YAHOO MOAR

What is the point of the axle exactly ? I see no extender work coming out from it. Caster-like armor ? Improving torque and maxspeed of the motors by some strange quirk of RA2 ?
Oh you DSL noob! The Axle is snapperloaded from the axle mount when I attached the nifty. Attached to that axle is a 20cm on which the two motors are attached. The 20cm goes through the nifty. That's why you can't see it :P

I'm very excited about this post :) Alright, to start off, I redid Tiny Trinity's weapons so as to make it the new Flame Chopper; check it out:  This thing beats some (mediocre) HWs. Amazing. Next, I took Hell Hammer and replaced the sledge hammers with razors, which gave me weight for rubbers:  Performs admirably. 4 bursted DDT's with 3 razors packs a lot of punch. And finally, the bot I spent an unseemly amount of time on (like, I'm posting this at 2:45 AM and I built the first prototype at like 11AM yesterday...) Enjoy the remake of Tornado!  Plastic is the only downside. Yes, that axle is exo-stacked (that alone took me 2 hours to get perfect) and the chassis is more airtight than anything I've ever built (notice the weight... >.>). 18 Maces. No havok (cause the drive is mounted on the baseplate). Castor armor. Also, axles are bitches. Rate and comment :)
