I thought you were going to judge them based on the Style Control Damage Aggression system.  And weren't the matches going to be 2 minutes long?  I agree with Jonzu, no offence.


I forgot. Righto, I'll correct everything for you chaps later on...

So Snakewater got added, as an official map.
I don't like Snakewater.

I probably prefer it without the teeth, but the Lightning spike on the hammer is a good touch, I think.

If it looks like I think it might (can hardly tell from that angle) I'm not sure the IRL-ness of the axle supports counter the massively exposed motors. I wouldn't be exposing motors that expensive looking - you might get away with it at a smaller weight class but I'm not so sure here.

They both just look ugly.

Sorry helloface but I'm gonna have to agree with the majority here. If you want to build robots for the purpose of winning, try DSL-S. Otherwise, you just aren't going to improve.



I'd just like to +1 these statements. That last one looks much closer to IRL in my opinion though, and Pestilence looks cool.

Seems like an excellent tutorial to me, can easily be added to that list of essential reads often given to most new builders :)

Rules 'n' shizzle.


These rules now cannot change, and this is now a signups thread. Go go go :D
I thought that you weren't accepting tournaments until you'd finalised a set of hosting rules?


The new rules will not effect Major League tournaments. So if you want to run your tournament, go and contribute to the plans.
Also, working on a new team. :)

Hello there.
Names have now been included on the front splash as all votes have been collected.
Expect more stuff very soon :)




EDIT: And as if by magic, the 'Battle Board' is also now on the first page. Check out your opponents!


Oh and just so you know, I will reveal the results of the poll before the Grand Final is posted, so everyone can see where they are in the standings - and if the Grand Final even matters!

It's unfair and could leave bias in the results. I will do my best to contact them. I just wasn't going to go out of my way to harass them when I was still waiting for other people too (the other person only sent their votes a few days ago despite being an active member :P)


You should all go harass Conraaa about TTT2 for a while seem as though that's been around longer and this has gotten further ;)
Remember these tournaments have a year on the clock.

sucking his dick because he's returned like everyone else is.


I'm not sure when welcoming someone back and talking to them, youknow, like 'catching up', was considered dick sucking.
Imagine a world where that is the only way you can welcome someone back and catch up with them. Hm.

It's pretty good for a cheap quick meal. Half cooking the veggies gives them an authentic stir fry crunch too :3
