I don't know if anyone picked up on it, but Ben's robot kind of reminds me of Wheels Are Tasty 4 from NFX.

Partially. You should turn your flails so that they move left and right, not up and down. Otherwise, you've got the general idea of flails.

Was Whirligig bulit by the same creator of Towering Inferno because they look almost the same. Yep. Remember, the original Whirligig looked nothing like the last one. Only ones that were close were the 4.0 and 5.0 versions of it. You can find the 3.0 version in Replica Wars 2 (my rep that did not well at all) and the original was in a smaller box sans weapon. 288

The page that has been there for a while is severely bloated and needed a hefty trimming. Discospinster did the right thing, and whoever is editing over there is in the wrong. 289

This may be troubling for my robot, seeing that it probably could suicide out of the arena if one of the walls are down.

Robot coming in a few minutes! ...or not, seeing as if I don't have it saved on my computer. It'll come by tomorrow, though. 293

My car is largely the same make and model of Andrew's: a 1996 Buick Century. Also, same as Andrew, it just won't die. It should have been totaled twice already, but repairs have kept it alive and well... for now. Once I get out of college and can settle down, I'll be getting a new car.
Hopefully, it'll be one that doesn't get totaled or one that the sister-in-law eventually catches on fire. 294

Got the first real snow of the winter season yesterday. However, it was little more than a coating of the white stuff. The real bad portions won't happen until the new year, anyway.

Took me long enough to think of a new robot, and boy is it a doozy. Introducing WTF Mate!?.
![]() Yeah, I decided to go off the deep end and build this. Everything's visible, and AFAIK, is NOT combat ready what-so-ever. The stats: Drive: 2 Drive E-Tek's (it deserves one of these: ![]() Wheels: 2 Vlads Armor: Plastic 1 Front End: 80cm Polycarb extender on Metal Hinge, 2x80cm Polycarb extender on Skirt Hinge Essentially, this is supposed to get under the other robot and knock it out of the arena, but... that sure isn't working. Any tips or pointers or comments about how stupid I am for going overboard on the drive? 300
Tournament Archives / Re: Replica Wars 2 signups thread« on: November 02, 2010, 11:48:29 PM »So I'm up against Whirligig in Round 1? Right. You've got it right to an extent. It can't flip over (for some reason or another; I wish I knew how), and that weapon's a bit suspect. However, it does have 5 mm Alu (mainly for realism purposes, as Whirligig was made out of 6061 Aluminum), so it won't be that easy to strike down. |
