4 ztecs is overkill for a MW, 1 pair of HPZ's should be fine. But I don't think giving advice will really achieve much here.

I would say focus on shading. But I know nothing about art so maybe listen to someone else.

If you're okay with waiting like an extra day or two I'll be able to send something.
I'm okay with it
No problem for me

What's up with the cameras on the sides?
All the camera angles he coded were unuseably bad and he couldn't be arsed to fix them, so he made the user make their own. Oh wait, sorry, wrong game. They could be flamethrowers.

Hi guys,
I have been thinking of a few tournament ideas that I thought might be a fun little twist on the game – apologies if these have been suggested before.
1) Super Middleweight Melee (Working title)
Standard Stock competition with the main gimmick being that the weight limit would be capped at an unofficial “Super Middleweight” level of 600kg.
2) Pencil Pushers (Working title)
An idea I had inspired by Robot Arena 1. We assign each component a monetary value and give everyone say $1000 to spend on whatever they can come up with.
Some further thoughts:
- Weight could play a role, so for example the first 400kg you build with are free, but for every 50kg over that it could cost $50 (or similar).
- Armour could also play a role so for example plastic might be free, but DSA could cost $200, steel $150 etc.
- Components would be valued based on their effectiveness with the most expensive components being HP Zteks, Iron Spikes, SnapperII’s etc. while the samurai sword, servos, sledge hammer head etc would be cheaper.
Due to the complexity of valuing each part, I think this would have to be agreed beforehand (maybe on here?) and the rules would have a pricelist for competitors to work with. Due to the extra components in DSL I think this would work better as a stock contest also.
3) Budget Bots (Working title)
A breakaway from the above, where competitors are given a much smaller budget to spend on making a robot, similar rules as above.
What does everyone think?
Sounds cool, but the money ones sound like a HUGE pain in the ass to host. Also I think 600kg is called cruiserweight (or maybe 550 or 500, idk)

New idea, have to use at least 3 different components from each tab

Planning on building a vertical spinner but I don't know what motors are compact but affective
Depends what weight-class. longer perms 132's are usually good for HWs and maybe some MWs. You can even try a dual perm on a long extender if you're feeling dangerous.

Only just saw these grudge matches, pretty disappointed that we win 3-0 in the grudge but lose 2-1 in the finals.

I think OmniRam would've given DG a better shot at getting under but I highly doubt it would've changed the outcome.
I actually recorded 9 rounds of this match because I ****ed up a bunch of times. DG lost in the way above literally every time, didn't outwedge once.

Stock/DSL tournament where you can only use one of each component (excluding batteries and extenders)
Isn't that Scrapyard Challenge? Don't remember if that's the exact name but I'm fairly sure that was the gimmick of Kurt's tournament.
Meh I wouldn't know, I'll go check

Few ideas:
Stock tournament where only component from the weapon tab allowed is bear claws. May ban pure HS
DSL tournament where only hybrids are allowed
DSL tournament where bot types are balanced by weight allowances (e.g. SnS can only be 400kg, popups 500, hammers 700 etc)
Stock/DSL tournament where you can only use one of each component (excluding batteries and extenders)

I realized I entered the wrong bot lol.
I entered a joke bot I made when i meant to enter Maybe Bushido.
If you send me the correct one I'm happy to re-record. I was wondering why you had a ramplate on a piston on the top of the bot.

why do you guys keep challenging DG and/or wen (especially wen)
it's like a grown man arm wrestling a baby
also i am somewhat confused about this random side chicken drill 
cause im bored and nobody challenged me gg, thanks again to yugi for hosting!
and then you enter a meltybrain sns you turd
its like nuking a baby
I mean would it have made a difference if I entered a popup, or a hammer, or a VS, or a clamp?
