I was right on the battery! =D

The razors may do more damage, but when put against a bot with hammers, I suspect all the razors will fall off. Don't listen to me though, bad things happen when people take my advice.

You could shrink the chassis a little, but I don't see what it would get you. Is it invertible?

And you only need a nifty for 2 HPzs, IIRC.


Oh, and try to use Irons/Axes

All is going well...
Then Naryar enters.
get a nifty and shrink the chassis as much as possible.
I thought the rule was a black for 4 HPzs?

Restarting the computer didn't work 10 minutes ago.

But it does now.

Gawd I wish I had XP.

No, the point is that it's blocking every website, whereas it's set up to only block certain websites.

13, my father is a control freak and my mother can't work out a 5 year old mobile, let alone a PC.

So in short;
I can't.

Today, for no reason at all, WPC has started blocking ALL websites on my PC, giving the reason "Rating service is unavaliable", despite unrated sites being allowed.

I am running a scan ATM but nothing is showing up. Everything is blocked on all my browsers. I am on Vista, and currently on an ibahn connection, as I am on holiday (I.e. Unsecured, enter code or pay to gain acess to Internet.

My father is not having this problem and he too is on the ibahn network, same with my iPod

Can anyone help?

Well, at least you CAN post pictures/videos/similes, I've been on a forum where you can't do any of that, mentioning a rival game will get you banned, no swearing at ANY degree, the flaming and trolling is out of control, almost every thread is spam, and speaking against the lazy moderators would get you banned.

And you were judged on when you joined, as it said below your avatar (Which you couldn't change by uploading a pic/URL). E.g;

I joined in '08, therefore I have more authority than an 09'er*, 10'er and an '11er.

It's a crap system, really.

*Despite the fact that I joined on the 31st December, and that person may have joined on the 1st January

No, it doesn't connect to the Receiver correctly, It's a tiny 2-pin, the receiver is a 3-pin.

I am using 20cm CF extenders to hold the motors on. ;)

OK then. =D

I'm not really liking the new setup, but it seems slightly more effective, despite the hammers not covering the entire bot.

ohai guitars. :gawe:

If you want stronger motors, try the more S-shaped Magmotors, and mount them on the outside AP of the Flipper Segment. This gives you a wider stance and improved stability, but I'd try and get Poly or - if you can - CF extenders holding the motors on instead of another flipper segment. That'd allow you to improve the armour.

OK, I'll try that and post back the results, but  those mags aren't drive motors, are they?

And why am I suddenly called guitars?  :confused:

Well, I've decided to re-download DSL and give it a shot. Not got around to getting NAR AI again, though.

My first LW rammer, Carpet (I am really bad with names.)


Aluminium 1


2 ants, and a small CB. Making the chassis larger to fit the blue one in would actually make it heavier.

I just ran a few matches against randomly chosen bots. I don't know which bots are any good in the LW category in DSL.


 :thumbup
- Absorbs damage with the hammers
- Invertible
- Reasonable speed, good pushing-power
- Very small chassis

 :thumbdown
- Weak and semi-exposed chassis
- Those drive motors are very exposed, and very weak
