DP.
Twas playing around with the hovercraft engine, and this happened. Don't know if this has been seen before. I thought it was interesting, albeit useless since it only seems to work in the bot lab.
Maybe one of you can figure something out with it.

Been awhile, it has. A new sin, it is time for. Presenting Wrath: may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. Inspired by Christ of the Abyss, I wanted a pseudo-shell spinner without using an actual shell. I like the fact that it's more of a dome of weapons than the standard 'short cylinder' of the usual shell spinners.  Efficient? Not a chance. Effective? Kinda. Could be better? Definately Fun to build and cool to watch, Hell Yes. Titanium 5, if my addled brain recalls correctly. 4 ants, hypno wheels on npc fasts. Why Wrath? Something about the design screams a rage-fueled attack to me.

Welcome, one and all to Yoda's totally inaccurate predictions...
Minimus vs Stealth Destroyer: my only hope is the wedge saving me or some great flanking. Prediction: Stealth Destroyer
Son of MSHD vs Hurricane: If Hurricane can sweep him to the side, he'll stand a chance. But i think Prediction: Son of MSHD
Flipperazation vs Drumbayotch: I think the wedge war will be lost by Flipp, therefore Prediction: Drumbayotch
forgot the food vs Dr. Spin II: I'm rooting for FTF, So probably Prediction: Dr. Spin
2 vroom vs BLT: 2 vroom looks cool, (great job) but i think the power here lies in BLT Prediction: BLT
Renal Calculi vs Please Reenter Bot name: Both look well built. But I think Renal will flip Please Reenter easily Prediction: Renal Calculi
Whiplash Recoil vs Wild Cube: Vengeance: I'm just gonna say Wild Cube, because i love the look Prediction: Wild Cube:Vengeance
OverOverkill vs Doom Donker: saying "Donker" makes me laugh. Overoverkill's best chance is to just not to touch Donker until count out. Prediction: Doom Donker
Stilleto Violence vs Crown of Flaames: based on looks, Stilleto all the way. But I think i see more power in Prediction: Crown of Flaames.
And everyone that got a bye is gonna lose :P
Now, reverse all my predictions because i'm always wrong.
Ohh, and thanks Ounce, for the 'coolest looking drum' part.

I don't think there are any other teams with a theme ahahahaha.
Hey, my team has a theme. They're all beetles (hence the name Coleoptera.) Though I suppose it might not be obvious.
There were a few 'hidden themes' it seems. Sometimes you gotta look harder. Mine was just in your face. lol

Not bad, sparkey. Just a few points here. Make sure we know which text to read in order. I had a hard time following the second one. Also make the text big enough to read. My eyes ain't what they used to be. I like the fact that you made the different characters have different looks. A lot of stickman comics don't do that.
Show us some mores

hmmm...I have a hard time picturing people over the internet. And the few times I do, i always end up dead wrong. Here's some of me from over the years.... Not what you'd expect from a 900 year old green guy, huh?

I don't think there are any other teams with a theme ahahahaha.
Yeah, I was hoping there'd be more themes involved. But oh well. Best built team: So hard to choose. I'm gonna say Team Uncia (RU: Team Pwn) Best team theme: Freezepops (theme: Closest to being built in real life, so there). (RU: TTTTMTB: Theme of quick builds) (honorable, no score, mention of False Advertisement) Darwin Award: Occult Sigil counted out 1/2 a second before time ran out. (RU: V=IR for launching off Scrapper Turshery OOTA) Eye of the Tiger: Freezepops (Wedgie, 'nuff said) (RU: Ogre's Lair.) Extinction due to misadventure: Team Pwn. All test matches, Accretion Disk stomped. (RU: Team Uncia. One test match, Flipjack was the last bot standing) TFTW: TTTTMTB (RU: Freezepops) ((Sorry, guys)) Best strategic team: Coleoptera. Flee beetle is a stroke of genius. (RU: Team Uncia.) Your favorite bot: I've already said it, Flee Beetle all the way. (RU: Volcanic Upbringing) Your favorite heat: The finals. plenty of suprises. some great moments. And didn't take 1/2 an hour. :D (runner up, Heat 1 of the loser's bracket. Big surpise, in my opionion) Should there be a future sequel to SOTF? I'd like to do one, but definately need a break first lol. Next one will probably have some variety. Thinking a team weight limit that you can distribute however you want. But you must have at least 2 bots. Something. I don't know, i'll think it up later.

Thanks everyone! I've decided to go ahead and run a loser's bracket. First two heats are posted, and Oh my Gods was the second heat long. I had to edit it severely to keep it under 3 videos. But, all the good parts are left in. Finals shall be sometime tomorrow and then we'll move on to the awards.
But for now, I must sleep before work.

I know I'm not going to make many friends saying this, but....
Mike>Joel
OOOOhhh the flame bait! Hey, we all have our opinions about it. In my personal one, Mike=Joel. Neither is better or worse than the other, they each have their own style with good and bad points.
I've seen Rifftrax in DVD form, and Cinematic Titanic live.
I wish C.T. would come around here sometime. I'd love to see it live.

« on: July 02, 2010, 08:56:54 PM »
Finals are up.
Congratulations 090901. A winner is YOU!!
Thanks to all who participated. I had a blast and hope you did as well.

I absolutely loved this show. It's hilarious. By far my favorite was "Manos: the Hands of Fate".
If you miss it like I do, check out rifftrax or Cinematic Titanic. rifftrax is by Mike Nelson. Audio files that you play alongside the movie. Cinematic Titanic is Joel and consists of actual videos they're riffing on.

2 things:
1. Congrats to the 3 teams that advanced to the finals so far! 
and
2. @yoda9726- when do you plan to release Heat 4?
Gonna edit it together after i relax for a few moments, then upload it. So, sometime tonight it'll be live. Final heat will be up soon after that. And, if you guys want a loser's bracket, I can do that as well. It'll go like this...Everyone who didn't make it to the finals, minus the Bye teams and my team. That will give 8 to go through 2 heats. The last two teams standing in each heat will go on to the final. But it's up to you guys if you want it. EDIT: Annnd heat 4 is up. Finals coming soon.

I can't stand any cola flavored pop. Mountain Dew all the way for me. By the way, the rumors are NOT true.
