Etymology of the word Sabotage Claimed explanations include: - That it derives from the Netherlands in the 15th century when workers would throw their sabots (wooden shoes) into the wooden gears of the textile looms to break the cogs, fearing the automated machines would render the human workers obsolete.[1]
- That it derives from the French sabot (a wooden shoe or clog) via its derivative saboter (to knock with the foot, or work carelessly).[2]
- That it derives from the late 19th-century French slang use of the word sabot to describe an unskilled worker, so called due to their wooden clogs or sabots; sabotage was used to describe the poor quality work which such workers turned out
Congrats Naryar. You better be nice to our lovely little forum here. <3

Seriously awesome work there. Got to agree the Hammer is amazing.

OK, I foresee Axe head/Ice pick rammers. Bear Claw HSs and possibly some unusual popups. But the arena doesn't help wedges.
Bear claws outlawed. :D Probably maces instead.

Really nice build. Probably overkill on the extender work, but an awesome bot regardless. :D

My weapons are extremely powerful as well, and your bot isn't wide enough to get past them.
F*** yo 20000 HP frame 
Hahah! <3 I sooooooo want to face your bot now.

Cage Brawler - Slow, mediocre weapon, and I don't think that frame will hold up.

Haha. Thank you. I am pleased with the addition of the Diglett factor... Magikarp might be able to beat Diglett with a WBP. :P

My bot is totally failing. XD I guess I should have battle tested it a bit. Curse my laziness.
Some great matches here. Very fun to watch the battles.

SHW bots give me the jibblies. They all look so menacing.
Lots of punty-looking vertical spinners here.
Quick Reviews:
SHW-Miss America = Looks like a gut ripping beast. The 6wd is going to save it from doom quite a bit. Nice build
Carbon Copy 2 = What it lacks in destruction capabilities it makes up for with style. I like the look of the bot, but I don't think it will win much.
Hard Target = FYI it is slow... probably will not fare well against any of the competitors. I would venture to say it is the SFTW of the tourney. :P
Cybernetic Tracer = At first I was like O.o !!! But then I counted up the weight used for weapons and concluded that it probably does not spin up very fast. Good arena choice for this bot though.
Recoil = Hard to tell how powerful the weapon is... but knowing Mike, it is no slouch. Grippy wheels with sufficient drive look good. I think it will be bouncy when it loses a few teeth... might spell doom for the OOTA potential.
Fatal Exception = Nice compact, speedy, bot. Looks great, but without wedges I think it will not fare well against the punty vertical spinners. However, since it wont go out of the (home) arena... it does have the potential to Win By Points if it can make its competitors unstable and inefficient.
Panodrum V2 (Pandorum?) = Unique weapon setup... Though I think the collision mesh might be making the hammers less effective with that setup. Also, with those motors... one lost axe and that bot will be bouncing around like crazy. I don't think it will be stable long enough to win much.
400 = I keep mentioning stability... I sound like a broken record. But, once again, I think that stability will play a huge role in the success of this bot. With that arena... it has a great chance of sending itself flying out and losing the match. I don't think that the wedge setup will help it be punty at all. Just a guess.
Pick to win= Cybernetic Tracer. Despite my guess that it will spin up very slow... I still think that it has the greatest chance to win all its home matches. The containment arena will keep all opponents within and this bot will slowly shred them. I think it is the best combo in the tourney, hands down.

It has been really cool to see SoTG's artwork get progressively better with time. Same with Reier's. I find stylistic progression of one's art to be really fascinating.
123STW's art style and technique has not changed much since he first posted work here... I want to see some of your earlier, crappier, work. Post some pictures that you drew 10 years ago. :P

Wow. A cordless drill survives in Mike's household without getting turned into a bot. Must be a pretty special drill.

Hmm, I do believe I can build an Aerodactyl this evening.
Oh no! Aerodactyl!?!?!?!? I choose you Magikarp! *toss*

Entry Sent. :P
Slow, bulky, clunky thing... I'm not very good at building SHW it seems. XD
