Debate Thread: UK Style Flippers vs American Style Flippers

[Vertigo]

Doesn't look like it can self right

[Squirrel_Monkey]

It did in the vid.

[JoeBlo]

They cheated

Using Nitrogen instead of CO2 was what made it so powerful

I am pretty sure that since it was allowed its not cheating.

Honestly you just dislike anything that isnt yours..

This. XD

Sewer Snake: You know the greatest thing about US robot competitions is?
Ziggy: No, what?
Sewer Snake: You can't get flipped out of the arena.
Ziggy: Wanna bet?

I don't :P

And Nitrogen is certainly against the UK rules now, along with any other gas that isn't Air or Co2

That just proves flippers are better in the US, where they aren't restricted as to what gas they can use. :P

First no Spinners in most events, now no more powerful gases.

Someone build them a less wussy arena, stat :P

Normally in this type of debate I'd be posting this-

But for once, I'm kind of in agreement. I'd like them to focus on arena resilience to keep spinners and things in, rather than all this new house robot and two-inch pit tosh.

Yeah, seemed like the quickest and most relevant reply- and a bit of a continuation to a running gag   :P

Bloody lack of reliability on Wel-dor

I personally prefer Uk style flippers. I'd probably say that though, growing up with Robot Wars.
I do like Ziggy however.

[RpJk]

True. But I wish there were more Northern Irish robot combat buliders.
