Looks cool, a poly sheet would probably work better at the end of the segment though

seems like an ok bracket to me, i should be able to beat as' bumblebot or whatever it is, the next riund should be fairly easy aswell but then i have no idea, i just hope urjak gets taken out early :P
coolrunner scares me aswell anyway, predictions: wildcard gauche suede: if it gets unstable, i don't have much hope for it. could pull a surprise though nary: looks like any sns will kill it. the wedges might just save it though, if they're good enough badnik: i think it could win the wildcard unless it gets outweaponed too quickly. marty: this could win if badnik doesn't punt it oota or something. best bot in the wildcard imo main bracket: craig: unless it can outweapon conraaa, i doubt it can win a fight :P conraaaaaaaaa: could go far if the wedges are good enough manmad: going to do well until it faces a wide bot such as sm's xfn: looks pretty dangerous, might not like the all the sns in here though me: i think i can make it past the first two rounds, from then i don't think i can win much more, especially if i face urjak or coolrunner D: logan: when did he get good? looks like a nice bot and will probably go far. urjak: uh oh i don't want to face this. might have problems against madman or coolrunner and possibly a few others though smashy: looks like a good bot, might not go far though yoda: if the wedge is good enough, it might do alright. looks a little too narrow and long to me though as: if that's a bumblebot then it could be annoying against rammers etc. coolrunner: hahaha this is a cool bot cwutididthar. may even win if it doesn't pull a rage III against some of the better wedges. ribbs: probably the sftw here, might be able to outweapon some things but that's probably the most it can do. ha: not a great bot but it might be able to win if it can outwedge stuff. sm: scary, going to do well imo 09090909090909090909235301: if the wedges are good it could go far my bets are on coolrunner to win :P 888

i could probably do about 2500-3000 since i come in the top 10 all the time in school which is meant to be a sport and technology college. i don't do as well in the beep test for some reason though, reaching around 9. probably because it's all the running back and forth instead of continual running.

looks good, would light beater bars and lds teeth be a better option?

DSL TC Showcases / Re: ty4er's showcase« on: August 25, 2012, 10:53:31 AM »sadly realism means that i can't get a longer weapon, it will either stick out of the sheet or intersect with the jugglers. i will fiddle about and see if i can make it self right reliablyYou can also switch to a longer weapon, which will let you self right. Sure damage won't be nearly as good, but since it has 2 other damage source, I think it's worth the sacrifice.it would be able to if the wedges didn't have agod, i guess you can't win them allI'm not sure but I generally find that popup elements on gutrippers tend to not add as much to the damage potential as a more powerful set of gutripper and juggler weapons.For me, popup element is for self right..... a wedge bot that can self right can at least win 20% more fights than without. 893

shooperheavyweight time
shw version of the mw/hw i posted not too long ago, with added juggleryness tite 1, i think it was 13 ants, perm 80s, a small jx and npcf. with 3 halfsheets and some poly sheets underneath. it has agod nearly everywhere (alright, just one hexplate full of lds and the wedges) but the weapons aren't affected by it so it is still stable and the wedges seem to be better so yay 899
