At one point Click had help, Mad had help, Joe had help, I had help, Nary had help, Sage, SD, Inf, NFX, SM and so on.
Order of increasing importance? Also, why am I in that list? I'm neither AU nor Mod nor Vet.

Those qualites are irrelevant for being considered for AU - it's contributions to the RA2 community which carry the most weight - and Jonzu has far outstripped GF93 in that respect.
Yeah, I wonder who else has had many tournament successes and has hosted several tournaments to a high standard? *Looks around*

Not so much the members themselves, on that front, but more the new users around here. They tend to only really look up to those who have the higher titles. And ever since I became a Superheavy, I've always wanted to be one of those people- someone whom newer users can look up to and respect, whom I can take under my wing to help improve on GTM and RA2 in general. I have heard from several that I do have potential in doing so with elements including my apparent wit, charm, knowledge and charisma on the forums.
The only problem is, how? How will I get these newer users to notice me? In my current state, it's quite difficult to do so. It's just that there are so many SHWs on the forum now, that it's no longer a really distinctive honour to have- more or less average joes to them, really. At the same time, newer users are told time and time again to "Only trust those with the coloured usernames", which makes it harder for them to trust you. Then finally, there's that matter of 75% on the Watch-O-Meter. Again, that really doesn't help- it makes me look like part of GTM's criminal underworld, ergo blending me in down further.
Alongside my reasons stating recognition for what I have contributed to GTM, I also feel that without it, it's generally very hard to actually get them to trust them, when they won't tell you the time of day because you don't have a coloured username.
Become a good builder/run tournaments/make cool mods?
I've got 2/3. Now to make some cool mods!

You probably already know this, but as a rule, 1 ant battery per spin motor (e.g perms, astros, NPCs). 2/3 per BSG, 4/5 per small JX, 6/7 per large JX, and 20ish for Betas, I believe (but with betas the big black ones are better)
I heard, 1 per spin motor, 2 per BSG, 4 per Small JX and 5 per Large JX. I have 24 (1x4+4x5)
2.5 per BSG
4.5 per Mag
5 per Small JX
7 per Large JX
21 per Beta
My dear 123, don't you think PC625's do exist for a reason ?
So you can skip by them?
They aren't worth it on normal DSL.

You can retrieve the bot file if not overwritten from the "Teams" folder.

Should I make the Battlebots and RW matches go to the judges or go on points?

Nah, I ain't that good at this. So you want the black removed?

Yes please. It's also very pixelated.

Eugh... I had a go but the slight colour gradients are annoying.

It's my fault. Nothing I build fits in this arena. STC is currently asking for help to raise the start points. JB has offered but I'm not sure if STC has accepted the help.

I can post a d/l for the arena but it's just a re-skinned Replica Wars arena.
Final uploading (SLOWLY D:)
So. It looks awsome. And will you be doing rumbles. I REALLY want to redeem myself in that Top 4 rumble.
I do plan to if I have time before I depart to Kenya for 3 weeks. THE FINAL IS UP! Rumbles and awards over the next 2 days.

S_M's new bot is allowed.
Nads.
There's still one spot left. :D
Who said anything about spaces? He's entered with an anti-wedge design, meaning he's going to kill me for certain if I go against him >_<
You could build an anti-anti wedge in case you face me!

Excellent. But how can a flipper "wear them down"? In throwing them around the arena, both doing slight damage, and allowing you to get in and attack :P Slight is the key word
If there's gonna be a Grudge Match, then I would like to be a part of that. =] I've been waiting two series to get a shot at Fox Boy.
Well it would have to be round robin, no controversial rumbles. What, are you scared of rumbles or something, matey? :D No, I actually thought you would prefer 1 on 1's with your flippers.

And for most of the fight, it works well- both times I pretty much dominated my second-round melees (in both cases taking out opponents by flipping them OOTA) , but then ended up getting cherry-tapped by the lucky one you'd least expect to win.
Erm, in our fight I did more work than you did...
You just like to think a few flips was "significant". But I don't want some big fight (Replica grudge match much?)
Although I think from what I remember, you and I more wore them down as you took out one, and I got rid of Badnik- then I think Hazard used the damage Purse took from all of the other robots to ultimately KO it.
And the idea of a grudge match, eh? Sounds good to me
