DP: I also had a thought about how to improve Vlad the Impaler's srimech- currently, that cheaty piston sends it flying around uncontrollably rather than actually righting it, so I had a thought-  If it was laid out similarly to the diagram above (Firing upwards at an arc, so that the bottom of the vertical extender is just visible, but not the horizontal one), it could work far more effectively- the burst could actually flip it over in a coordinated fashion, as opposed to throwing it randomly, whilst the extender work is concealed under the lid, still looking very much like the original mechanism.

On a side note, I found this on the old Team Storm website-

If we do see a DSL rep of Cassius II take shape, this should come in useful for getting the shape down 
That reminds me of your FRR Dead Zone Middleweight Entry. 
It does, doesn't it? My most major design influences for Dreadnought included- - Cassius II - Firestorm V - Envy - Explosion

Here's Tut Tut, I know S_M mamde one, but I wanted to try my had at it. You probably know by now that if I can't get a feature right I remove it - that's what happened here with the pyramid tip. But I'm quite pleased with how the ancient brick texture came out, so hopefully that will draw your focus.

Although it's a little on the small side, I definitely like how that looks- particularly in the skinning (right down to the Hieroglyphs!) and the way you laid the axe brackets out

What I did was just not install the new version of Firestorm that comes with DSL2.1- that's the one with the glitchy Judge Burst. The original one from DSL2.0 has a lifter motor in there instead- more stable and accurate to the real thing, so I kept that.
If anything, it's Chaos 2 that needs the Judge Burst instead, IMHO.

Mazakari's name was awesome.
Yeah- that I can certainly agree on.

...that even Mazakari could've cut through.
I liked Mazakari. If you are gonna make a reference to a crappy spinner then use Spin Doctor from Series 6 of Robot Wars
There is that, but I think everyone had their doubts about its power- it looked so light and slow that it probably wouldn't have been able to scratch Balsa Wood.

Did Nary just... spam? o.o
He did. Apparently, you didn't just beat him... ...you broke him.

I like the stabilizer work, though the main weapon choice... no, just no. Chewblades are just plain BAD.
If BOT_204 was anything to go by... ...but what is so bad about Chewblades in DSL, though? I know that they're horribly brittle in Stock, but I'm not so sure about DSL.

How fast you can drink 0.5l Fanta Orange?
I got 1 minute, 15 seconds. I could do better.
Even though drinking a full-sugar drink at such a speed would probably kill me in this state, I might give it a try- I'm estimating about 40 seconds =P

Which season is that from?
Series 5- beat Mini Morg and Major Tom, before losing to Panic Attack in its Heat Final.

392.Something. Still Plastic 3 ^_^
Also with lame-o perm support.
Reminds me of The Master, somewhat ^^

Kat 3. Did this one to test out the calligraphy tool in Windows 7 paint. I couldn't get the wheel gurads right, and it tips over really easily

All things considered though, I think that this one's still rather good

(This might be a bump, but I'm not certain)
Admittedly, one thing I would change in DSL3 is the conscending, smarmy tone of the messages when you lose in a tournament, even if by complete accident. They're not funny, just incredibly frustrating- particularly if you lost through a Havok Explosion, and then it's all like "YOUR PERFORMANCE WAS CRAP- KILL YOURSELF FOR IT" for it. I would definitely change it so that it's more like the original.

I had the best score out of all of them.
Only because of the pit preventing me from getting you as well, mate

Whooo i got the last spot, although my bot could've been a lot better I'm just glad to get in :)
Well, let's hope it at least does better than the Hot Noob did ^^
Was that n00b warz? I remember that I wasn't going for the win on that I wanted to win n00biest bot award! That was funny though.
Yeah- hopefully if Reier comes back, another series of n00b Wars might be quite fun. Last time, I took out the reigning champ ^^

Easily one of the worst robots I can remember was B.O.D. from Series 7- I couldn't find a single redeeming aspect of this robot in terms of ability, nor construction.
Was that not the one made out of plywood?
I never liked Gravedigger for some reason. It just seemed quite dull, and when they tried to improve it, they completely failed.
No- that was Brutus Maximus. Even that lasted longer in both appearances than B.O.D. did, and it had Razer and Pussycat to deal with in seperate battles. B.O.D. was made out of paper-thin plastic that I think that even Mazakari could've cut through. But Gravedigger- I liked the artwork on its front wedge though, I have to say.
