Thanks guys, I really appreciate the support and I'm sure Thy does too :D
But yeah, I will emphasize I am still looking after the tournament section, so continue to send stuff to do with it through me :)

Loser's Bracket Round 1 videos posted.
Winner's Bracket Round 2 is currently rendering, that'll be due in probably about half hour - I'll edit it here in rather than double posting so check back!

EDIT: WB Round 2 is up, alongside the Loser's Bracket Round 2 matchups that result from this.

I still feel very strongly against the Touro Maximus victory after that post-match hit.

I think my favourite bits were just mainly whenever Hypno-Disc or Panic Attack were performing well, although I did enjoy PA24K's last match, being ripped open by Matilda etc. The lower weightclasses were always fun too.

Mini robot control unit(the green) which uses on of your ant battery

What? No control board uses any batteries, despite their descriptions. The blue one is simply recommended for it's weight.

As far as I'm aware, unless you use a sound component which float around in the downloads there's not really any way to play music. Why not just mute in game music and load up your music player?

Stock Showcases / Re: TheSnowingSteaks VERY FIRST Showcase
« on: May 09, 2014, 11:08:18 AM »
Couple of things I'll point out before someone good at Stock comments...
1) Chassis is far too large. You could shrink the height down and make it invertable with Rubbers.
2) Too much power, as you know
3) The flipper isn't very wedgy, try a small wedge component.
4) You have a lot of weight left, upgrade your Zteks to High Power Zteks, and with the previous suggestions you could probably have 2 DDT flippers.

Apart from the fact you could've edited that bot into your first post rather than double posting, and to crop the white space out of your image there's not really a lot I can help with with regards to the bot -  very nice for a first showcased bot.
All I would say it you could potentially use smaller wheels if you wanted (less of a target), try using multiextenders instead of baseplate anchors as they're smaller and weigh less and use the blue control board as it's just that little bit lighter.

Doesn't look op to me. Looks kinda bad, aesthetically: The disc doesn't fit at all for starters.

Tommy: It'd be cool if you just told people, they're not catching on.

Jaydee: Please, STOP double posting! There is a Modify button on your post that makes double posting completely unnecessary.

3153
Looks fairly cool, I'd say it's just a flipper though. Also, always check with tournaments, some IRL tournaments might not allow Judge Bursts, but i'd say 90% do.
I like the arch over the wheels :)

Custom Components Showcase / Re: Lil' Hammer of Justice?
« on: May 08, 2014, 03:45:26 PM »
There's already a sweet smaller HoJ called Hammer of Judgement, but if you scaled those components down yourself that's pretty cool.

3155
If it just happens sometimes, it's pretty normal. If it's very very regular you may want to try downloading another copy and trying that.

Yeah, well, they were mainly built to be combat effective, and then having them be IRL enough to be acceptable. :redface:

You're doing it wrong.

This. If you want combat efficiency, build standard. IRL is almost more of an art form.

Why don't they do smaller replicas of house robots (real obviously and/or even use R/C ones for Featherweight's),

The featherweights are massively more powerful than the RC House Robots, and larger.

let heavyweights have spinning weapons
That's a matter of health, safety and very high insurance bills.

have a main UK tournament that gets televised and keep the other events untelevised?
Good luck finding a station willing to take RW on.

It's unreasonable. And please, a mod, somewhere, move this topic XD it's driving my OCD insane.

3159
There is, and this is the wrong place for this thread as it is.
