Did you find him on the Battlebots subreddit?

Yeah. I'm a mod there.

Rose posted it on Facebook. Look on the BB page, it should be under the posts to that page

edit: Does anyone have any details on a team named Team Mohawk or Euclid Robotics? According to one post to the BB page they're competing, but considering the guy had only a small part in it he could be confused. I want to be sure before I add them to the list.

Also using clues from this video and what Charles has been posting, this would be his robot:

JacD is who I asumed is witch Charles. (Uberclocker design, same driver haircut as Charles,MIT) all signs point to this being him.

Who is Mohwk and Euclid?

Just a reminder that I am constantly updating my list over at the BattleBots Wiki with pictures and stuff.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #209 on:** May 11, 2015, 08:54:12 PM »

It appears there's only one MIT team, unless Jamo is fooling with us. That robot is JACD (named for the 4 team members) and it features a crusher/lifter.

Battlebots on the evening news. Ginzu's alive and well, might we see it on Battlebots again?

dammit ian you posted it before i could

The new pinball bumper hazards look interesting. Remind me of something off the old US RW arena. Pete's back to operate the hazards, that's awesome. And the team of girls adds another confirmation to the growing pile.

Doesn't look like any of the big Brazil teams have announced anything, so I don't think we'll be seeing them.

xanosz · « **Reply #213 on:** May 11, 2015, 10:21:01 PM »

Anybody know how many teams in total are supposed to be competing (32?, 64?, more?)

Badnik96 · « **Reply #214 on:** May 11, 2015, 10:23:25 PM »

Supposedly 24. Ive done the math and with six episodes, assuming nothing gets left on the cutting room floor, that'd be 4 fights an episode.

If this is true then it seems they're sticking to the same basic formula as CC, but replacing the dumb skits in between fights with fighter bios.

Somebody · « **Reply #215 on:** May 11, 2015, 10:25:17 PM »

24>12>6>3?

How's that gonna work?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #216 on:** May 11, 2015, 10:27:15 PM »

16-16-8-4-2. Assuming eight bots get byes.

cephalopod · « **Reply #217 on:** May 12, 2015, 03:08:33 AM »

24 teams involved and I think 8 will be reserves. I know 1 or 2 or the UK teams are reserves.

Jarvis_Rapture · « **Reply #218 on:** May 12, 2015, 06:55:02 AM »

You won't see all the fights, a number of competitors are featured and you will see their fights only. I'm not sure how many are featured.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #219 on:** May 12, 2015, 07:01:28 AM »

So that means we'll be seeing even fewer fights. Lame.

My guess is that Counter Revolution ended up being a reserve, considering what I've heard.

Poll

Who do you think will win the Giant Nut?
