Well, the initial test run with me driving for its second version went well. And I've stopped hatin' on TIB and his outdated wedges.... and moved on to one of your newer bots *cough*. Suits me better as I'm not really a popup fan, even though I've built a few myself. Also gets under Novarupta, Cryoseism (I like that bot alot:D) and HNM4. Can;t get under Fat Rat though (another bot I love :D). These were with me driving, and I'll post with pictures of it and how good it is AI'ed. For now a teaser, and the bot that I'm hating on now ;p  It needs to buy new clothes as its waist and its height have gotten smaller, but on the upside it now has more weapons, better wedges and better chassis armour (steel 3), and side protection! Pretty much the same in every other respect as the first one :P

Lol, went wiki searching for Evil Clown and scrolled through the names to find any that fitted :P

New juggler. It would probably work better with a drum tbh. Wedges are adequate. Weirdly, it outwedges HNM4 but not FnF. Confused much? And I really like the Firestorm flippers :D Could make the chassis smaller. But that can be done for v2, along with a nice skin. Well, when I say nice....  Now I've looked at the spinners more, methinks I should make them a little more symmetrical :P

Tis why it would be a twist of fate ;p
Its all down to the wedges. Go vertigo! :D

Tbh, if HNM gets through it will probably win :P (HW version of Shiva vs Immunization anyone?)
If the flipper gets through (and can outwedge hnm) that will probably win, and have the shortest battles possible:P
I'm hoping for a twist of fate and the rammer winning. Then Fever will be the main problem. And a very scary problem at that.

Tis if the flipper also has to look like an F1 car :P

I don't think I would've won without GK's bot. Thanks for throwing repulsion field out :P On another note, that was my first ever tourney KO :D. Now I am really worried. Fever........*shudders*

Done it about 6 times today to get different aspects of the bot to work. And I really can't be bothered to do it again, as I am feeling very impatient today as the effeing takes too long for my taste . XD

They were the only batteries which fitted with my current setup. They are the main thing I want to deal with. And yes, they are fail :P

Buuump Since I am planning on entering the best bot builder, might as well showcase my stock failbot to see how it can be improved, as my DSL bot works well. DSA, called Meh. Probable Problems (:P) are that the Z-tek cant spin 96 kg per tribar fast enough, the DDT's for the wedges are too far back (cos thy wedges sucketh) and..pinks due to not being able to fit a black anywhere. The main solution I have is to make it 2WD to make room for a black or 2, take off 6 maces and pinks, and add another tribar, or improve the front armour. Course, if any of this will make the bot fail more, tell me :P   Does OK in Starcore 3. But only OK.

Sparkey seems to have started giving DSL advice then switched to stock. XD
Try a beta burst for the flipping weapon, 2 if you want it to be a pure flipper.
Back weapons aren't necessary, really. Needs moar armour at the front if its gonna be a flipper (or most anything), and probably a wedge, or smaller, chassis. See Second Sentinel (NAR one is better though:P) for help.
For a poker, on the other hand, it'll need more weapons. Use the large puma tanks as they are more efficient (if i remember right). Razors/Sir K drills/Irons and some other weapons which I can't think of right now (a hand please?:P) would be better than Spiked Clubs and pointy tips. Eye stabber would be a good one to look at, even though its weapons have normals (Can't think of any better atm).
Vlads/Hypnos would probably be ok for this bot, or even technos if you want it to be really fast. Is that NPCF drive? If not, use it :P
Also, what is the chassis armour? I know its aluminium, but it would help if we knew precisely what it was. Also, build to the weight limit. I would like to see what you have done to Extreme Xterminator myself- that could be a darned good bot.
EDIT: Damnit, I took so long typing this in a thoughtful manner that people have beaten me to it :P

Well, I updated the extender work to this:  Wasnt long enough without the flipper segs. But from that I have replace the panic attack skirt protecting the Dperm with a half sheet (probably better things out there), put a p skirt on the back and added shell panels on the sides. Might live a little longer now. Alternatively I could have just upped the chassis armour, but I think this will add more protection. And I've change the drive to NPCs. Works like a charm, thanks Pwn :D

New Bot, The Beast Of Truro. Inspired by SD (I LOVE that HS:P), but not made out to be too similar. Originally meant to be a MW, but I got carried away. Can't be bothered to do a splash this time; especially as I haven't AI'ed it yet. Titanium 3 armour, 3 ants, NPC F drive. Also needs a skin, probably of an evil pasty or something. And its realistic, even though it may not look that way :P

Love the rammer and HS :D
In fact, the HS inspired me to make something like that myself that I'm about to showcase :P

A speech? Oh why not :P It'll be horrid though. Without my dear family, I would not have spent 16 years on this planet being happy with everything I had. Since moving up to the northern wilderness called Wiltshire, especially for the past two years, a select bunch of friends has stood by me every time, thick or thing, or abnormally long. Today they did not laugh as much as I expected when I completely missed all 10 pins without there being a gutter type thingy. These are the people I call my true friends. Pity somebody I really like was at rehearsals and could not come  (Yes, Mr C, I has fallen for that trap again). But otherwise, I salute my friends for being there when I needed them, and even when I didn't. Thank you for making my time on this planet so precious, even thought I lost The Game tonight. And happy birthday Gazea2, my dear 4th July comrade :D Any good?XD

Happy Birthday Gazea and Marty!
Even though I don't like mentioning the exact date of the day, here's a cake for you relating to it- (pic)
Not very helpful, considering I'm from the opposite side of that dispute :P Thanks very much guys, I'm off to go bowling with Craaig and some peeps :D

Craaig needs more practice *cough*
Nah, he's got other things to do :P
Great game if you're either bored or want to shoot somebody's head off. First reason is why I play it so much XD
