You'll have to see that episode of the Gadget Show to find out what I mean by it.

They burnt out the batteries, didn't they?

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #262 on:** December 22, 2010, 11:18:28 AM »

Yes. Plus quite a lot of external damage, owing to the lack of armour and focus on weaponry instead of protection.

NFX · « **Reply #263 on:** December 22, 2010, 01:20:16 PM »

True. They should have kloned Storm II instead.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #264 on:** December 22, 2010, 01:22:27 PM »

I wasn't implying that- I was thinking that it could have used a bit more armour in a tournament which allows powerful spinners.

But Storm II is awesome. =D

It is, but I thought judging by the way you used "Klone", I thought it was more of a sarcastic criticism.

How did it atempt to cheat?
It used a smoke screen and a special camera attached to the robot to try and fight Beauty 2 whilst it was blinded, but it was disqualified for it afterwards.

They didn't just cheat by using a smoke bomb, it was 15KG!

And that, too. Thus, if they ever did fight, I bet Explosion would give it a kicking.

Oh yes, thus to the much more powerful flipper, hardox & HDPE armour, and a far superior driver :P

And the fact that you don't need smoke screens, an extra three kilograms in spite of having no external armour, the...you know whats*, and a design that makes the robot look like a mechanical puppy only adds to the reasons why Explosion could beat it

WRONG!

Featherweight weight limit is 13.6kg

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #273 on:** December 22, 2010, 05:22:11 PM »

Really? I thought it was 12kg :P

Vertigo · « **Reply #274 on:** December 22, 2010, 05:23:20 PM »

It was, before January 2008

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #275 on:** December 22, 2010, 05:25:56 PM »

Ah, OK. Guess I hadn't checked since then. Was it to allow use of better weaponry, armour and things, now that a full-combat tournament has returned to the UK?

Vertigo · « **Reply #276 on:** December 22, 2010, 05:27:09 PM »

We changed it to match the American weight limit

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #277 on:** December 22, 2010, 05:29:16 PM »

That explains it, then. A bit like how the RW Heavyweight limit was changed to 100kg for Extreme 1?

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #278 on:** December 24, 2010, 06:40:51 PM »

Also, I've lately taken a liking to Killerhurtz.
