Everyone please keep yourselves calm about this. It's Jonzu's tournament, I think he should get the final word on this. I understand that Preytor feels that the rules should have been more explicit, but there's nothing to stop him from submitting another entry. If your robot is deemed unrealistic, you could easily head back into the bot lab and make yourself another entry.
I believe Joey should get the final word, as he made the 'rules cannot change' rule.
That's the thing, though, THE RULES ARE NOT CHANGING. There are no rules being added or removed, all that is happening is clarification, which is what people are wanting, and what Jonzu has given. As I've said, you can easily enter another bot into this tournament, there's plenty of spaces left and nothing preventing you from doing so. As far as I can work out, the issue has been resolves and your robot has - unfortunately - been deemed unrealistic and ineligible for entry. I'm sorry, but that's just how I'm calling it.

Ah, I see. I perhaps should have made that a bit clearer. Have you got the arena working, then?

Am I getting that HW spot? It's just Jack Daniels has appeared on the list, and I haven't.

I am almost certain the DDT's are for flipping purposes. The Blue Snappers are there to get under the opponent. =D

If this is a serious article, I will hunt her down and give her a lobotomy. The Beatles are undoubtedly one of the greatest bands of all time, and One Direction are yet another flashy, manufactured, image-and-hype product of the ignorami in the reality television industry, relentlessly churning out barely average autotuned, unimaginative <expletive> that would sound better if it was played backwards at half speed on a 1920's gramophone.

I should have guessed you'd build a VS of some sort. =D
Copter looks like it could be done better, I don't know if the 250cm disc is a good idea or not. VS3 looks very nice, though, I can imagine it'd do very well. You don't get any of the gyroscopic effects you do with wheeled bots on hoverbots, do you?

Casters should ideally be mounted out the sides of the chassis, to prevent HS getting any hits in. But looks not too bad nonetheless.
MW/FS looks suitably mad. It looks a bit too long and narrow for my liking, however, I'm sure you could attach the motors above the Snapper2 to save some space and improve turning.

Very nice indeed. That sometimes happens on circular chassis's, though. You could try adding it as a decal if you wanted to.

Happy birthday to Fracture. =D Hope you have a good one.
Happy birthday to Pressure, too. It's always nice to see a more experienced hand kicking around.

After seeing how my Melty Brain panned out (slightly jerkier spinning than I had anticipated), I'm actually quite confident against Trollestia. Though I might not win, I've got the chance to do a good amount of damage. I've survived a good few rammers so far, and I reckon I should do alright this round. Good luck to GRW, though, he's been doing very well for himself in this tournament. =)

I'd have all maces instead of two irons, personally. Better chance of them all hitting at once. My guesses go to GIMP 2.4, and Robot Arena 2.

And finally, you're all wondering why RPM randomly havoked against Triceratops. It's not because of the new melty brain AI I gave it. It actually havoks against any bot with a wedge for some reason. All of its opponents until Triceratops have been wedgeless rammers, so it's been fine.
...that's a very bizzare reason. I'll get to watching Round 4, then. =D

I only have one achievement left to obtain for Lego Batman. I've gotten my Gamerscore up a fair chunk in the last few days or so.

Frogger 2. In other news, I've just sent in a few last-minute tournament entries before I have to go back to college. Monday and Tuesday, I have no spare time at all, Wednesday, I have about an hour or so, and I get the rest of the week off. =D

LOL. Awesome work. You should totally add servos so that they work.
