I think you'd save a good amount of weight if you built it pointing the other way, with the SnapperII at the front of the bot. Also, if you use a Reverse RAD for the right-hand spinner, you'd be able to have them both level, and get an equal reach with both sides.

If I face Urjak and lose (which is entirely likely), then I get Naryar or Pwnator. This is not going to be an easy tournament for me. But at least I'll put up a good fight. =)

4. Double Elimination bracket, 2 mins on clock.

So you really should have a Loser's Bracket anyway.

Why has he called it Stingray, then?

Alright then. Makes sense that way. And I'm not using the judge motor, its the mag snap motor that is under the bsg burst motor list.

Do not use Mag Snapper motors ever. They are exactly the same as BSG motors, just 10kg heavier. It's wasted weight.

AAM, BFE and HAX mode is allowed .... but not the 140 cm extender and it never will be!
Why not?
Because it's unbalanced compared to the other square extenders. It's 20cm longer than the 120cm extender, but weighs 25kg less.

Purples could be a little more distinct, in my view. I thought it was all the same colour to start with.

It's a good hybrid to go for. Although the snowploe should really be further forwards, and you should try to get the extra razor on the left-hand disc. What you could do to instantly improve it, though, is attach the RADs by their end AP, rather than the one by the axle, to give you a much wider reach and improve trapping ability. Plus they won't get in the way of the FS weaponry.

Looking a bit better there, yeah.

All of them are looking brilliant so far. I'm wondering if Deep Claw would look better if the rear wing was thicker. It doesn't look like it goes back far enough to me.

Ribbs, who I think I should do well against, or Urjak, who'll probably kill me. Again. Not a favourable draw, I don't think. I was hoping to meet him a LOT later on. Should be a great tournament, I reckon Urjak might get to the final, not too sure who he'll meet.

#2 was Mechadino? Nice! I wouldn't have guessed that. =)

Interesting. Under what circumstance would the pc545 and 565 batteries be used? Ive been using those in alot of my robots just cause they have alot of output.
I assume you mean the orange and tall ones. Orange ones are pretty much never used, tall ones are only really used to power Beta Burst motors. ALL spin motors need one ant to fully power it for three minutes (most matches are that length), from Piglets and Copals to E-Teks and Dual Perms.

Right, so the GTM skype group bullied me into posting this
This makes me skeptical. But if it is genuine, then good luck.

Spiney looks quite good to me. Like some kind of fish-looking thing. Flat sides look a little bit long to me for some reason. Does the perm axle affect invertibility at all?

Cat is suitably mental. I would prefer it, though, if the LDS teeth were positioned in front of the wheels, like a cat's claws. Imagine what Cerberus has in Series 3. And it should have an invisible rollover hoop on the top, because cats always land on their feet. =D

And i'm assuming NFX's Lightweight is a "he chooses which one for each match" type of thing?

Ding ding ding. I choose which way up Sundancer starts the match. I'm very pleased it was within the rules, though, it's meant to prevent what happened to me against Urjak in Clash Cubes IV.

Looking like a great selection of teams, with plenty of candidates to do well. I'm not holding out too much hopes, I think I need a fair amount of luck here. (lol@MassimoV thinking I'll make the final) Neither of my bots spins as quickly as they probably should, but they should hopefully do reasonably well, provided I don't get too bad of a draw. Although I do have that choice with my LW on which way up to start. =D

So voting's over. That was one close fight. #3 is obviously J, #4 is clearly Rob Collins. Nice to see everyone getting at least one vote, though. If 6 was Wacky Bob, my guess is Kurt Wylde for #2 (I originally thought that was Wacky Bob). #1, maybe Vertigo. Or Click. Really no idea on that one.

But #5 was me. =D Sorry about the eye-raping splash, I had the idea for the bot and I didn't want to miss out like I did last month. Thanks to everyone who voted.

Fight 3:The Unforgiven vs Macro Vulcan
Fight 1:Macro Vulcan wins by OOTA
Fight 2:Macro Vulcan wins by OOTA (WTF Macro Vulcan)

Explain this at once.
