I completly agree. As I said, "I just think that perhaps we as a race should attempt to refine our def of life, so non organic and inanimate structures dont bear as many, or even close to as many traits relating to life as certain things that do possess it." I was demonstrating that certain non living things acatually come close to bearing as many traits of apparent life as certain living things.

Ha ok, let me just say that of course I dont think fire is alive. I just think that perhaps we as a race should attempt to refine our def of life, so non organic and inanimate structures dont bear as many, or even close to as many traits relating to life as certain things that do possess it. Such as a sterile mule for example. Just a thought.

Fire also doesn't have DNA, which viruses do have. And you misinterpret what I was going for. I was only trying to get across some of the discrepancies in the generally accepted def. of life.

I believe that we are here to love and to live out and do our best to obey the will of God. Thats what I believe though. Viruses may or may not be alive. They are basically nothing more than a strand of genetic info inside of a protien capsule. They cannot reproduce on their own, as they require a host cell to do so. Fire seems to fit the def of life better. It breathes, moves, produces its own heat, requires fuel (food), grows, makes more of itself (reproduction), and can be extinguished (killed). The only thing it lacks is a cellular metabolism. A sterile mule (all mules are sterile) cant reproduce. Does this mean they are not a lifeform? Doubtful. The def of life seems to be flawed.

Ah i see, hmm. Ill try to figure something out. Thanks man. EDIT-- I just beat SHW Alligator with my popup Serious Cat. Destroyed in less than 25 secs. I dont know if thats a feat or not, but in the past, that thing has been to me what Emergency is to a lot of newbies.

I just fought this thing. Destroyed me in no time. I can vouch for its effectiveness.

I'm planning to make a HW rammer/ face spinner tonight. I notice on a lot of the ones in showcases, the hp ztek has 2 extender disks mounted on it, and twice the weapon possibilities. How is this done?

Thanks sage, thats what I did, only I used razors instead of a plow.

Not yet, so far I only have stock heavyweights. And I missed my chance a few weeks back for BBeans. Ill enter next chance I get. Maybe I should try some other weight classes.

I got this game about 2 years ago, had no idea what to do, used Walrus with steel armor to fight stock AI, never played online... and forgot about the game for like a year and 11 monthes till about a month 1/2 ago. So yeah, I've been really trying for a month or so now. Beetlebros site REALLLLYYYY helped me get going. I gotta keep going till I get that wiki page for some reason haha.

I don't know much about Stock Jugglers, but do gaps between the wedge and ram plate have much of an effect? I made sure the ramplates wouldnt get in the way, as you can see.

Well, building a juggler happened to be next on my list of high ADC bots. I'm too tired to make a splash now, so deal, haha. I must say, I'm very happy with the way this one came out, with the exception of one minor detail... See if you can tell what that detail is in the pic hah. From the outside.  Here are the guts.  And here are the guts with the disks removed for a better view.  Name is Fiddle. 4 hp zteks for drive, axle loaded to get them super close together. 2 black batts stacked together. 2 burst loaded hp zteks mounted directly on the burst motor, no extender needed, thanks to Tankcat for walking me through how to do that glitch. DSA armor, 8 razor tips per disk, total weight of 736........ And yes. Thats right. I forgot to leave room for a baseplate anchor to mount a snowplow on, for the top of my bot... Still works great though mind you, just have to work a bit harder to keep under them. (I even had enough weight for it...) Very tight chassis, took me quite a few trys to get it just right. What do you guys think?

YAY. it looks good. Those green snapper wedges are eating up a ton of weight (6 pixels high when it could be 5, huge empty space)
ALSO- put the snappers upside down so the axle is near the ground. This will give you more extender weight and make your wedges a bit better IMO. I thought for a snapper to fit without lying on its side the chassis had to be 6 pixles tall... And I turned them upside down. Youre right, much better wedges now. Thanks.

Oh yea. Well I'm about to start remaking Serious cat. But I have a question. If I delete one of my front ram plates, and its baseplate anchor, and layed my snappers down so I could decrease chassis height, and lose 4 kg in extender weight.............. I could have enough weight for a 4th black battery. So tell me... Is losing one of my front ram plates worth a 4th black battery? Or should i keep it as 2 ramplates and 3 black batts?

Ok, will do, and yes, one of the batts is stacked inside another.

How do I take battleshots? For the sake of simplicity, here are 2 pics of my bot from the start of this thread. From the outside.  And the guts.  This is my 3rd popup. 4 razors per arm. 4 hpztek drive. 4 DDTs. 3 black batts. burst mounted small wedges. DSA. Highest hit I've got so far (it was on a stock AI) was 3500. Don't know if thats good or not. 6 pixles tall. 799.3 kg. Thank God for axle loading.

Naryar, that is my 1st popup, my newest/ 3rd one is edited into my 1st post at the begining of this thread. For some reason I thought that was a good idea.. Wrong. I'll post more pics for this far back in the thread later I suppose.

The razors are on straight arms on my newest popup at the start of this thread. Thank you.
