Of course, go for it!

Did anyone else think this was going to be a joke thread where someone linked to an article about some furry doing something messed up or something like that?

Hypothetically, I may be on if a friend of mine submits his designs and gets accepted. That's all I'm going to say at the moment.

I like the lifter, and I'll make sure to show it to Zachary since it's a cool twist on his kit design. Is the wedge on the second bot only held on by 2 screws?

Then again, real life Battlebots aren't particularly exciting anymore.  It's either everything on 1 spinner or pseudo armored wedge.

As an IRL competitor I would highly disagree with you.

I hope to see a lot more new faces, and not just a Battlebots/Robot Wars reunion.

@Urjak: I'll keep it under wraps solely because it's reasonably up in the air still. But I've been waiting on this long enough and I tend to get pretty obsessive about my goals, so it should come together. Plus, if I don't do it, I don't get my degree haha.

Also, I added SKBT on Facebook and y'all should add me, I'm Jonathan in the recent friends but I don't know all your names. I'll probably be able to tell from the robot pictures who you all are haha

Added you. You'll know it's me instantly.

I'm lost :L

That one guy who was like "I CANT GET UNDER ANYTHING WITH ANY WEDGE" and said the game is broken or something like that.

I was surprised by the results. I thought that one of the horizontal crushers would win the heavies, or at least make the top 3.

I'm confused how the expansions(?) will work. Will you just upload the game with the new ones added so we simply replace the old teams files?
