I'm not sure about Perfect, but it's not too bad. =) Is there a T connector in there at all?

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
you got lucky :P

You got lucky in the first match, though. =P It was still a real back-and-forth sort of fight, though, at least you got my weapon motor off in one of the round. I was surprised I didn't havok.

Taur IV - Depends on the burst motor.
Single Large JX. Tried a Small JX in Taur II, which gave a more aesthetically pleasing chassis shape, but couldn't lift a sheep. (+1 Reference Points) Now it can lift approximately 1.3 sheep. =D

I agree that it was a very well-engineered robot, and a great piece of design, but it could have put on a better show during its matches, rather than the clamp-and-pit tactics.
Oddly, Crushtacean used broadly similar tactics, why has no-one been going on about that one?

Not bad. Are they mounted there to give it a wider area of shreddage? Or do the collision meshes get in the way if you mount them on the inside AP of the discs?

Ah well. So long, enjoy yourself (but not too much), and try not to get shot.

Manly men horses piss rainbows.
Ha! You thought that picture would be in here, didn't you?
Is that what it was doing? I thought it was ejaculating.
Is that bad?
The unicorn was ejaculating. The horse was just taking a leak.
Ah, okay. I'm glad that's cleared that up. Let's have some music.

I don't know why I said Vlad had the first Srimech. It had the first purpose-built one, though.

it's someones time of the month
Thanks Haz, I just spat coffee on my computer screen laughing at that one.... :S
sorry about your coffe bro, i'll buy you another some time.
on another note, i don't really like many american robots, the seem a bit samey
lol ok. Yes I agree about that, the only really innovative robots were Nightmare (HUGE DISC), Warhead (although British), Run Amok (for it's epicness) and Diesector (for its epic clamp)
How many bots have you looked at?
Vlad The Impaler had the first Self-Righting Mechanism, IIRC. It used a pneumatic piston to kick itself back over onto its wheels after Biohazard had overturned it. It didn't win, though, but I'd still say that quantifies innovation.
Biohazard selfrighted first.
Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that. But it added those skirts, so it lost the self-righting ability.

No. Trinity fliers are a direct violation of the controlled movement rule. Plus, how would they attack the opponent, and how would the opponent attack them?

Surely, people are going to be looking for Big Red Buttons, and attempting to stop people from pressing them. Why not swap it for a small blue switch and throw people off the scent?

Also, why is Urjak painting a target on my back now? I've still got to get past trumpetguy, and I'm not terrifically confident about facing him.
Because I am terrified of facing you. Your bot is probably the only robot left other than R0B0 who can (maybe) defeat me. If you do happen to lose you next battle then I am fairly confident I can make it to the Grand Final (assuming R0B0 succeeds against guitars.
I'd be more concerned about your upper razors taking off my motor. It's a very strange scenario when NEITHER competitor thinks they'll win, but we've still got to win our respective matches in the next round. If we do make it, though, then good luck to you. =) I don't know why I decided to target R0B0 at the start, AND bet on him for the championship.

I can't exactly drive like FBS AI in-game. :P
I can, wierdly. You've just gotta get the timing right.

Urjak might well move through the LB to make the final, depends on who wins out of me and TG. After watching TG vs. 090901, and viewing the splash I reckon I might have a shout if I can hit that exposed chassis or the flipper segments on the front, I think my flails could pay me dividends here. I think his weapons hit the razors of 090901 instead of the disc or weapon motor, so I reckon I'm alright. Still, good luck to TG, it should be a pretty good match. =)

Talk about snatching victory from the jaws of defeat...I was terrified when my weapon motor came off in Round 2. WHO NEEDS WEAPONRY?  Still, great match, SB, I honestly thought you had it right up until the end. And Guitars is in the Winner's Bracket Final? How in the  did that happen, she must have had the luckiest run in all existence. Still, I suppose kudos is in order...at least my pick for the championship will no doubt eliminate her. =D Also, why is Urjak painting a target on my back now?

I think he means both of them. Naryar can't do well in Stock tourneys for some reason.

It was a really wierd havok in Round 4, but I suppose there's not too much we can do about that. Fair play to SSG, hopefully he can make some more progress in the LB.
WHY DID THIS HAVE TO SHOW UP AFTER I TESTED IT? =D
