I just got started playing Miles EdgeWorth: Ace Investigator.  I have to say, I'm not too pleased that Gumshoe acts as the dimwitted assistant in this game, it lacks the appeal of being followed around by a teenage girl.

Bigger Borther.  I figured that someone with the DSL components could do the flipper better than that Bigbrotherflipper component.  Should be capable of tossing other robots out of the arena once I finish modding the burst motor.  I couldn't figure out how to do the "cat ear" thingies but if anyone has any ideas - besides the Lightning spikes because I tried them and they suck - then I'm all ears

Series 6 was all a bit same-y as Zero Punctuation would put it.  8/12 of the semifinalists were 'bots that made it last year, and good on them for that, but it doesn't make for great television.  And a fair few heat finals were m'eh - look at Wild Thing, S3, and Spawn Again's heat finals for evidence.


And I agree that while Dantomkia holds a number of prestiges, flipping Chaos 2 out is the one it gets too much credit for - Chaos 2 was already dead before it launched the killer flip, and was kind of screwed over by the house robots helping Dantomkia out and not it.


Though to be fair, Chaos 2 could nto have held its own against any of the other semifinalists - apart from Wild Thing or Spawn Again

They made another sh**-tastic "Robot Wars Talk," I can't help but feel angry that they said Series 5 was the worst, especially after admitting that they barely knew anything about it


"boo hoo hoo there were no gauntlets and trials, bawwww I liked it better when less than 1/3 of the show is actual fighting, and the fights themselves are mostly pushing matches determined by who can get whom into the PPZ first."


Oh and the reason I can't leave this alone is because I regularly search Youtube for new videos with the criteria "Robot Wars" -super in hopes that someone has posted the missing episodes.

Reserve prices on Ebay are the stupidest thing ever.  I'm the highest bidder on an item, but I can't actually buy it until someone comes along and outbids me.  And the seller who set a reserve price, you're an idiot too!!

Damn, I forgot, you can't always communicate sarcasm through typing.


Anyways, online gambling is just like any other drug - the trade is just too big for you to do anything about, apart from shake your head in disgust and watch all the addicts fritter their savings away.


I'm assuming that you're "over" it, as you didn't post any screencaps of a recent poker excursion.

Once you know how they deceive you in roulette, you're pretty much turned off to gambling forever

I hate to be prejudiced, I really do, but is it possible that all online poker sites are rigged?

Maybe this could double as a "humane" death penalty.

Existing Games / Re: Pokemon Thread

I watched an episode of the Sinnoh arc today, reminded me why I got bored of Ash's female sidekick always going to contests.  The appeals round is THE. SAME. BLOODY. THING. EVERY. TIME.


1) Pokemon does an attack that conjures up some kind of solid matter
2) Pokemon breaks aforementioned solid matter with a second attack
3) Pokemon does a third attack that makes the shards go all shiny.
4) ???
5) PROFIT

So much fail:

Having not seen the video- anything I should know before I look at it?


It's like the UK version of "The Office," how David Brent just starts talking about something without really knowing where he's going with it, and it just kind of peters out.  It's also like watching a Bee Gees interview, Barry always does this thing where he says something then turns to Robin, who nods in agreement -they do that a lot.
