You need to look for the UI Folder and find the file "inforgrames" and you open that up in MS Paint or whatever program and you mess around with that and it will change the infogrames to whatever you edited it as.

The winner:



It was close though, so maybe I'll do Antihilator after this.

I'll give you guys till about Saturday to discuss the rules before this goes to signups.

Full Thoughts:

Brick Breaker: Looks a bit odd, but it may do well.

Abomination: I think I'm the only one who entered a flipper. Don't quote me on that though. ayy lmao

99 Cents: That face. Eww.

Deff Dredd: Very weird for a triple hybrid.

Spiderweb: Not bad, can't really say much else though.

Low Hanging Fruit: Might do well.

Al-Luminati: Ugly, and again, that face.

Selling Tetanus: Another odd looking bot.

Titanium Rotter: I see a useless micro wheel unless it's good at being inverted.

Bad Dwarf: Looking pretty good.

#REKT: I don't remember how well horizontal sawbots in DSL-S.

Sharkano: Looks alright.

1000 Knives: Been a while since if seen a Flying Guillotine bot.

Poop: Looks pretty good and may do well.

Wildlife: Can't really say too much except those skirts look odd.

Abandon: Weapons looks sturdy and can help put up a fight.

Footsteps, 32: Pretty much seen this one before, just with scrap metal.

AceMetric: Interesting combination of a sawbot and a side hammer.

Hellraiser: The guy who built that must really hate himself.

Beezen: There's a pretty good reason why Billy saws and MOE Bars aren't used often.

Rydeen: Odd, razor tail may help out.

Tsubaki: It uses a samurai sword. Okay then.

Gaia: *cough IRL cou--* I probably shouldn't say anything this time especially since I'm up against it in round 1.

SQL Hammer:: Odd since it has one weapon.

Overall, both of my bots may get past round 1, but the entries are very odd. I even said it 5 times while summarizing these bots, maybe that was intentional because of the Scrapheap metagame. Good luck everyone!

This is the upgraded Sloth and has it improved? For the most part it has, but it still loses the weapon to a very formidable opponent (mostly HS) but it now has 3 razors instead of 4 to get the ice picks on along with the static drive. It's much more controlled with static drive and I did take 090901's suggestion with the plows and it does work better with it (Thanks man). Overall, it's about as good as a hammer would get.

Hey Mr. AS, are you willing to accept teams for ASAI from the community? If so, then here's the first of my 8 possible teams I have made.





Bot0: Envy
Strengths: Deadly weapons
Weaknesses: Exposed motors
Notes: I intended for this to be an angled spinner bot like but I accidentally had the rotor bars on the opposite attach point, so I just went with that instead.



Bot1: Sloth (Will be upgraded or replaced)
Strengths: Fast
Weaknesses: Bad Wedges
Notes: I don't like this bot at all because the wedges are just not helpful and the hammer weapon keeps falling off. Would making the drive static help much?



Bot2: Pride (Will possibly be rebuilt)

Strengths: Very fast weapons
Weaknesses: Can't self right
Notes: It's a Quell2 clone. This is untested in battle and I was pissed when I couldn't get the weight for side plows, maybe I'll rebuild it just to get those.



Bot3: Greed (Will be upgraded of replaced)

Strengths: It's an overhead poker
Weakness: Everything else
Notes: I wanted to see if it was possible to make a BW overhead poker and still work. the result: it doesn't.



Bot4: Lust

Strengths: Fast and destructive
Weaknesses: Unstable
Notes: Not much to say here except it has some extra weight left.



Bot5: Wrath

Strengths: Fast
Weaknesses: Plastic armor
Notes: Again, not much to say here, It's your typical Sns, with maces. This may also be seen against a certain someone if a certain something does happen. 

If not, then that's fine.

Damn man. That's a shame. I'm crossing my fingers on Storm and Big Nipper making the cut though.


Also, slight tangent, but the website isn't working for me.

You have impressed me yet again. The promo shots make it look cool too. You think you're gonna video trailer with some, if not all, bots in action?

DP (I'm a baaaad man.)


Another not-so-awesome n' stuff bot.



Stole the chassis from that advaced chassis bot to make a BW version with irons. The name itself kinda reminds me of the High Voltage team.

Speaking of which, Is there any robot left to make for ReStocked that I could make?
