Real Robotics Discussion / Re: Robot Wars: Where are they now?« on: June 29, 2011, 04:10:19 PM »hmmmm :)Indeed- and with that, it could also help along with a revival for British Engineering. Just like old times :3 HeySparkarse, shut up. That's not contributing anything. 5527
Real Robotics Discussion / Re: Robot Wars: Where are they now?« on: June 29, 2011, 04:01:10 PM »I know :) those are pretty good to let some people fight with robots without doing serious damage :)Yes...and it also serves one of the great messages RW had- it made engineering cool for the general public. By reigniting that interest with that and remembrance of all the old greats, Robot Combat could take on a new age in the UK <3 5528

Real Robotics Discussion / Re: Robot Wars: Where are they now?« on: June 29, 2011, 03:47:07 PM »I can see it in a hangar and there would be a huge pretty dark room (not a dark room) with some spotlights and 6 podiums with Roadblock, Panick Attack, Chaos 2, Razer, Tornado and (it has to be :/) Typhoon 2Somewhat like that- a bit like the Great Hall in the NRM, really. And perhaps other things, like say, the House Robots, props and things from the original TV series, and a purpose-built arena or something might be cool. For full-combat events in the UK, perhaps. 5530

I tend to think of cool names, typically team-related, before I build, saving them in the form of empty BOT files in the team. I then build them one-by-one.
Come to think of it, I just had a random thought- "Bitter Consolations" would be a good name for a bot. 5531

Indeed- I could imagine it being laid out somewhat like the National Railway Museum, with programs to renovate the older and more famous robots to working condition. You never know- Fix our Firestorm? Help our HypnoDisc? Repair our Razer? :P

Real Robotics Discussion / Re: Robot Wars: Where are they now?« on: June 29, 2011, 01:38:19 PM »Yes...but I think it's a fairly safe bet. After all, it'd be sad to see such an influential robot and RW champion in the state it was after that horrible punishment it took from Razer, 13 Black and Mr Psycho.Not too sure regarding what state it's inChaos 2 is still with its owners and Pussycat is owned by Mr. StuAh, OK. The last I'd heard of Chaos 2, it was under overhaul to fix the damage done to it in Extreme 2, as part of its retirement. Have you seen or heard from it since then? I'm guessing that that is what was implied by what you'd mentioned about it. 5536

Not the actual robot, but pictures and information on it, along with one of the pullbacks of it- citing it as an example of innovative and successful Lincolnshire engineering.
