Chaos 2, hated George Francis. Easily beaten by good robots, Razer, and didn't even stand a chance against Dantomkia. 
Best robot? Guess.
An opinion is one thing, but your apparent justifications for hating it is another altogether- only ever losing to the good robots should be seen as a good thing.
That leads me onto this- if "Good Robots could beat it easily", how do you explain it beating plenty of excellent ones over the years? (Big Cheese, Firestorm, HypnoDisc, Killerhurtz, Steg 2, Tornado, Stinger, Pussycat...)
Likewise, it only lost to Dantomkia because Shunt interfered with it self-righting properly. All you sound like to me is a bit of a DTK fanboy, really- if that's got me (generally considered to be the forum's most ridiculous fanboy) facepalming at your comments, that's saying something.
Yeah, but Chaos 2 used to be my favourite bot, until i found out who the driver was, and chaos 2 became outdated very quickly. Oh, and the hypnodisc boys handnt yet built their srimech, so, fail. But I do agree with how many dencent bots it beat.
On another note; what's a fanboy? Because I know people you for liking Cassius 2 for some reason.
But lay off. What's wrong with DTK? I may have a highly favourable opinion on it, but mocking me aboit isn't nice. And my personal text is a joke. I like DTK, but I DO NOT LOVE IT TO THE POINT WHERE I WONT HAVE AN OPEN MIND ABOUT IT.
I can understand the bit about it not being adapted for later wars- I realise that did cost it later. But liking it, and then suddenly hating it simply for the driver? That's the most shallow and pathetic reason I've ever seen for hating a robot in any case.
And the answer to your question-
http://robotwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fanboy
...right. Actually, come to think of it, I actually hate Tough As Nails more than Chaos 2.
But how the (insert swear word here) am I a fanboy? I just like Dantomkia, and i think its much betyet than chaos 2 (my opinion). But I do acknowledge that other Robots (like Razer, possibly the best bot to ever compete in RW) are better than DTK.
Forgive me, but what bot is Cassius 2? I cant honestly say ive seen it.
I didn't like DTK because of it's driver :P
It had perhaps one of the worst drivers ever, i still like the bot though.
Cassius II = 
Lol at the driver comment. BTW Cassius 2 looks like a metal firestorm (which is a good thing)

No, I mean using Shiny Hub wheels just about stops it from being invertible.
When building the bot, if you make the chassis height the shortest possible then go 5 'clicks' up, you should be able to have an invertable bot with shiny hubs on HP Z-teks Assuming the face spinner isn't bigger than the chassis....

Sorry, obviously heard it wrong when I was watching it on RW.

Guys, I didn't want to get trolled. I would appreciate it if you respected my opinion, but, I don't see what's wrong with Dantomkia. Can someone point out its flaws?

So... I win by default? Because that would really suck.

Ever seen the Top Gear version?
(Image removed from quote.)
This one?
I think he means the one where Jezza put stabilisers on the sides so it doesn't fall over.

@smashy, Yes, it is possible to throw robot out of the arena. Otherwise I wouldn't use it. :P
Okay, sorry

I know my opinion isn't worth much (if anything) but great job TRB! Better than anything I could ever do.

LOL, I've alrady made two possible bots for this tourney. Are we going to make it into a signup thread yet?
(Also, is the arena like normal robot wars where you can flip bots OOTA? Just wondering if a flipper would be effective.)

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, it was a knock-off of the real game.
Yeah, but GT5 (full game) is epic.

The Sims 3. Gets boring really fast and the only way to keep the game playable is buy loads of expensive expansion and stuff pack.

DP. This thread is dead.
Well done, clever clogs.
Jonzu is banned anyway, when he's unbanned he may or may not choose to continue this.
Well SORRY for not keeping up to date with whoever's banned or not >:-(

Smashy will probably win, unless Garvin makes something thats not C.A.T or D.O.G skill level.
EDIT: 400 posts :P.
Don't be so sure, I've actually created a decent bot this time and I've already sent it to TRIAS so I'm just waiting on Garv now 
EDIT: HUNDRETH POST OMG OMG OMG :D
Yes I just have to remake my bot in a new Ra2. (God damn disc version)
Just another reason why I hate the disc version
