So moving away from the splinter stuff and Flashing Frog. I noticed from DOT that he noted that Hell Spawn couldn't self-right. So I tasked myself to build a Robot that can in-fact, self-right with a flipper and roll over. So without further to do, here you go:   This is how I manged to get the Robot to Self-Right.  For additional information, It's armour is Titanium 5 and is smaller than Hell Spawn. But its flipping power is weaker than Hell Spawn's. As away's have a say and it'll be in the Bot-exchange under the name: Blue Oni.

Hell Spawn 1.2: How can it not self-right? It would seem capable to do so...
It's a design flaw within the bot itself. Even when the piston that fires the flipper is powerful, it can't roll over due to the design. I'll try solve the problem as soon as the tournament is over.

Sees my Robot- looking good.
Sees everyone elses bots- welp, I'm not going last long.
I wouldn't jump to any conclusions. As a flipper you always have OOTA plus some bots that can't self right. Either way it's double elimination and great fun to test your designs anyway.
Well, if you look at my bot compared to everyone elses, it's not the best in design. But I now feel it may still have a chance against some of these bots like AHOG's bot looks weak as well as some other. Also, the flipper may be some-what durable to last some time and may offer OOTAs if possible. So I do wish everyone good luck and hope that your bot doesn't get chucked into a virtual bin bag.

Well, congratulations Thrackerzod on another successful BOTM entry. Clearly you won my vote and my heart with the love of Robotnik. Hope it makes the front page.

What was that bot?
Splinter?
Yes, you are correct. Just showing what the Robot may end up looking like.

It is napalm irl.. everything is about to fall off
Got to love your charismatic humour. Seriously if you didn't read the main post I made, this isn't designed to be a hardcore serious entry, but more of a bot made for a few laughs like in the official GTM Tournament Stock division with DOT entry "Prepare your RAW Anus" . So I wouldn't expect this robot to win a match. So as always, it'll end up like this after one match:

After not playing stock for awhile, I felt like I wanted another good go at Stock building. So I played around with the Efffe glitch to make this middle-weight (at least 388 KG), Vortex. It's not prefect but I'm planning to build a heavy weight version of this. So feel free to say anything about it for now.   If you are wondering about the razors, that was because I didn't want to force the robot over weight. This is the reason for the heavy-weight version.

I try to avoid using the support perms for IRL bots because the weight is unnecessary because you can make your Robot lighter by using anchors and extenders to fake support the perm
However, your axle will appear to be floating when that support is gone, and that is ew
I didn't think this straight through about perms, sorry for any trouble caused with the advice.

First of all, don't use Fire Axe heads because they do less possible damage compared to more powerful teeth like the steel teeth and the Typhoon Teeth; I try to avoid using the support perms for IRL bots because the weight is unnecessary because you can make your Robot lighter by using anchors and extenders to fake support the perm; also what batteries are you using I know you're saying the batteries long but what are the actual batteries, I keep thinking of either the blacks or the battle packs; and what's your Armour type by any chance (it might help if you post a screenshot of the insides).
I'm not the best person for advice, but I hope it does help.

Dominotrix, IRL MW, basically the next step forward from an old robot Domino as seen in the top left.
Comes with three rings to mount to the disc, is fully invertible, and features a reversed colour design when upside down.
The one on the left with the beaters is the original one, as it was the one with the design taken from the original Domino, the two ends of the weapon are at different heights.
Ring two is the single tooth and counterweight ring, shown in the top right.
And the third ring has two big swords and added supports, because why not?
Definitely love the paint job you gave to your Robot. I'm not sure if the Vlad spikes on the model near to the bottom right corner, are properly effective on ring-spinners since I keep seeing ring-spinners with mainly Typhoon teeth because of the teeth has a high damage output, similar to the design of Dominotrix in the top right corner. Anyway, got to love the Robot's design overall due to how much effort into making a ring-spinner.

Is there a reason you went with 4 wheels instead of 2?
Yes because Rammers rely on a strong drive chain and brute force to deal damage and to push their opponents around the whole arena. If you think the drive is a little too much, then yes I do feel it may end up replicating the old BBEANS4 mid-weight Bot "Rage III", which often punted itself OOTA for going too fast with or without a wedge.

As for now, I'll keeping Hell Spawn 1.2 a secret until DOT (DemonofTomorrow) posts the main splash for Annihilation Nation. So for now after running out of ideas for Kurt's Masters of Disaster, I decided to make a not-so serious Rammer for a second entry. I don't know if Kurt will allow it, but I wanted to have a few laughs out of this one like IRL with Ray Billing's "The Great Pumpkin". Without further or do, here's Flashing Frog.

I'm now having second thoughts that #5 could possibly be Thrackerzod, the style of the splash is very similar to many of his tournament splashes and other BOTM splashes that he made in the past (By looking through the older BOTM Posts). As for the others, I still don't have a clue.

My verdict and possible guesses:
1. Love the use of the trinity glitch, doesn't explain much on the wafiu though however.
2. Ok, where's the bot? Unless f**king Twilight happen to be the bot itself. Good joke entry.
3. Love the use of extenders to make a good replica, 7.8/10 too much extenders.
4. Not much of JoJo fan but it's definitively a speed wagon.
5. I'm in fact, dying inside right now.
6. Got to love the chasis paint job and the weapon. Maybe 090901 or possibly Baconus Yum who made this, due to the "She tastes like bacon" text on the left-hand side.
7. Call me deplorable but I've seen better bots that can knock down a wall better.
8. Don't have a strong opinion about this one, but good job.
And to top it all off, an image which sums up this month's BOTM:

Pretty good analysis, just to clarify, yes #2 is a pony built entirely with BFE. It also has a custom AI that shoots lightning
Thanks for telling me that. At the time, I thought the second entry was just a 3D model of Twilight Sparkle Photo-shopped into the Splash.Now, I would change my vote, but I already voted.

I'm DemonOfTomorrow and what is this
I'm afraid that it's ****posting that got out of hand. You could get a mod, but this is turning quite funny.

Well I afraid that I have ran out of ideas for a possible, second entry.
You see, making the first wasn't too bad because you have a fresh new idea straight away in your mind. But the time you made the first, I personally feel I don't want to enter another clone of the first for the second entry. I've seen some people making similar entries to their first entry like in Rob Collins' Swords of Glory, but I don't want to make another clone of something that I made.
Or alternatively, I can just shut up and think of another idea.
