That's an awesome idea. I've already got an idea about how they could be applied to give a very IRL look :D

Pretty much. I hate vertical drops so I've been avoiding that one since it opened. Also it's so painful o.o

Hi guys I spent 2 days at a theme park with Slinky being generally quite scared but eventually getting to be super comfortable on most of the large coasters. Here are some ridiculous pictures for those that don't have me on Facebook - my first ride of the weekend on all 3, and my first ride ever on the last.

Well, you can BFE more components on, unless I'm mistaken.

I think we need to be specific and say "who has a significant other that they have physically touched?"

This seems like a fairer way :P

^This.
The only difference now is you can't spam loads of threads at once, make loads of threads at once, or spam a lot in one thread.

So I'm single again. A year and almost half of a year.

It sucks. It really does. In a year and a half, she turned me into a far better person than I was.

But, eh. I can return to being a mongol and inseminating the masses with my middle eastern sperm of manliness.

You're a chill dude, you'll find someone else. In the meantime, iunno how it ended, but try and just look upon the positives but realise that it is over. If she changed you for the better, it must've been mainly good, so just be grateful for that time you guys got together. :)

You shouldn't really be asking for links here - besides you have access to Google.
Technically the links are illegal (even though we all use them, yes) so we shouldn't really be putting them on here.

EDIT: Yeah, you can even check Rule 1 of the new Site Rules up in the navbar.

**** EMA, seriously. Money for turning up to something you have to do if your parents don't earn lots. I know someone who got EMA even though their family were millionaires... because they had no income. Why would they have income. They don't need it.

Off-Topic Discussion / Re: WinRar Alternatives
« on: April 03, 2014, 12:38:35 PM »
I don't see why you'd want any alternative to WinRAR but I believe 7zip can do .RAR's too.
WinRar is technically illegal to use after 40 days and I have the worst conscience in the world.

what? I hear that for the first time

Well, youknow, it prompts you asking you to buy it because your free trial is over.
Let's be honest, they can easily patch it, and they haven't, so they don't really care.
Plus... I've never heard of anybody being imprisoned for using WinRAR past the trial ;)

(Image removed from quote.)

RULES
Game - DSL 2.1
Weight - Middleweight
Realistic Rule - IRL Realistic
27 robots. Entrants may send EITHER ONE ROBOT OR TWO ROBOTS. There will be a secondary stage to signups for second robots to be sent in. I will elaborate later, depending on interest.
If you can't AI, I will AI for you, just don't get whingey if your robot doesn't win.
You can't enter until I have received and accepted your robot.

BUILDING RULES
Middleweight class robots only. 249.0kg - 399.0kg
Only in game glitches are allowed -  eFFe Glitching, Axle Loading and Snapper Loading.

Tracked robots are eligible, the weight cushion is - The weight of the tracks do not count towards the weight of the robot.
No scuttlers, crawlers or walkers.
Multibots are banned.
No unrealistic weapon sizes and quantities.
You can upgrade your robot or send a new one as often as you like until signups end.
Judge Bursts and MOE motors are the only non-wheel Cheatbot2 components allowed. All wheels allowed except Storm II wheels.
One Judge Burst per bot.

BATTLE RULES
3 minute fights.
Official Robot Arena 2 Tournament arena, I will make a new skin for it again.
Hazards on.
If a robot havoks then I will restart the match. I will keep restarting until there is a havok-free match. Fights with havoks will not be shown.

Arena

Round One - Qualifiers - 27 robots will be randomly placed into 9 battles with 3 robots in each. The winner of each Qualifier goes through to the triads, meaning 9 will advance.
Round Two - Triads - 9 robots will be placed into 3 battles with three robots in each. Winners of Battles One, Two, and Three will fight each other, qinners of Battles Four, Five, and Six will fight each other, Winners of Battles Seven, Eight, and Nine will fight each other. The winner of each Triad goes through to the Final, meaning 3 will advance.
Round Three - Final - The remaining robots will fight each other in a simple "Winner Takes All" three-way final.

Judging
Judging will be done by me.
Each robot will be given a mark out of 5 for the following:
Style - How well the robot looks in battle.
Control - How well the robot is controlled.
Damage - How well the robot uses it's weapons.
Aggression - How well the robot tries to become part of the fight.

Any changes of the rules you guys want? Stuff to be added, taken away?

The rules above cannot change.
You have 3 months :)

I don't have any PM, also don't you think it was a little late to be trying that considering Badnik did. Nice try.
