AND NFX IS ENTERING VQ4
AND I'M ENTERING THE OTHER STIG
AND MY BOT HAS AS MANY BEATER BARS AS VQ2 :P @Somebody: you might be able to save weight by using a skirt hindge to attach the weapons and cut down on extenders and I think that Beater Bars are better than Irons. (but don't quote me for that)

You know how sometimes when you log in the forum asks you to solve math problems like 1+1 or 4+2 in order to prove you are a human not a spambot. Well what if the math problems were higher level math so only smart kids or older members could log in if they solve the problem. It could be something like Geometry or Trig problems because last time I checked 12-13 year olds don't know that kind of math. Go ahead and shoot me down because it is a hairbrained idea and if ACAMS makes it a Calculus level math I wouldn't be able to log in. :P

And by the way: inform me when Rock em Sock em takes place. want to enter.
Sure thing I'll let you know. It probably won't happe for a while. I've got a lot going on IRL so until it clears up it might happen this summer at best.

I've got 4wd NPCF with technos. Unless you have the same drive or are going with the Muchos Wheelos approach I'm going to be able to out push you. :P

Normally I don't like bragging and up playing my bots because it comes off as cockey but GF is bragging again and I'd like to knock him back a few notches...
My bot has about as many weapons as Valid Query II and as much drive as it. It can take off a 50KG sledge hammer on the initial box rush. But watch it lose first round now because I said all the above crap. So there GF... :P

You might want to take a look at using hex plates or drum components instead of disks if you are only going to place four weapons on a spinner.
Also you 400 HP magmotors are asking to be hit on your bots that have a short reach. It might be beneficial to use a piglet and more weapons but it's your call on what to do.

You could make the rammer wider by using the trov chasis glitch for the rammer if you really wanted to keep that drive setup. But if you want to go overkill drive try 4 E teks with technos. It's lighter and i think it might be faster. In most cases 4wd NPCF with technos or 6wd NPCF with hypnos are more than enough.

I was wondering what team you were on. I'm on the Metal Moose.
As a side note please tell me your team is powering all 6 wheels and not just using the outside four as casters.
Do you have a good minbot design? My team is out of ideas.

I'm going to have veto all of those teams because I've got about 1/2 of the bots AI'd and in teams and I am NOT playing let's shuffle the bindings to different teams again. Although I might use some of the names. Anyways I was going with 6 bots per team.
As a side note: I'm still kinda working on this. I haven't had much time since winter break mostly due to the FIRST build season and schoolwork coming first.

Try attaching the drive differently that looks kinda heavy. Maybe stick it in the chasis. That way you can dump the long end extender and the drive extenders which might free up enough weight to upgrade the wheels. Two Shinny Hubs on NPC's aren't enough anymore. You might want to try Techno Destructo wheels.
On a good note... It looks awesome and like a typical JD bot. It's good to see you haven't skipped a beat in your absence.

You could use the trov chasis glitch on that and upgrade the armor with the left over weight.
You could also ditch one of the DSL bars and mount everything off a single DSL bar and a shell pannel. So it would be...
Hammer Hammer
Sheck Pannel--DSL bar--Sheck Pannel
Hammer Hammer

The blue bar PISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD ME OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No more blue bar!
WWWOOOOO
THANK YOU
I was really really annoying because as your list reads its not compatible Google Android Browser and was seriously messing up the website display...
Yeah it doesn't really work on my IPhone 4 either. How hard would it be to have a mobile version of GTM? I've seen other forums with mobile versions so I know it's possible.

RULES:
-bracket will be 1-on-1 then 4-way then a 4-way final. (32 entries)
- These are the rules, they cannot change at any point from now.
Based on the fact that you never mentioned a wildcard match and you specified 32 enteries and you can't change the rules now I don't think you can add a wildcard to the bracket. I'm not trying to be a troll or anything but I don't want to have to fight through the wildcard. :P

Last Rites is one of me most known SHWs in the circuit lol.
It's a Heavyweight. Tombstone was Ray's Superheavyweight

I've made flipper arms as heavy as 150kg without a problem.
As for hammers.... Take a look at my UHW called Squish (it's entered in COTT and it's on the splash) If you want to do the math and figure out how much weight is on the hammer arm feel free to do so.
