And by destroying chaos 2, 13 black sealed it's spot in the hall of fame!

Well, with chaos 2 destroyed, george francis may have made a chaos 3 (or quazar) for RW series 8!
So it's win/win!

What the Hell? So in spite of everything it did, you consider it a good thing that it was destroyed?!

At that point, yeah, I kinda do.
It stood no chance by this point, it'd have just faded away and looked more and more tired if RW had carried on.
Besides, imagine seeing chaos 3 for the first time, imagine how awesome it would be!

(although quazar or whatever it was called would have been dissapointing if he'd used that instead of chaos 2.

Chaos 3 wouldn't be able to enter RW3.

Now I'm not saying it was necessarily a bad thing that it lost in Round 1, it's just the way they handled it was what I considered Extreme 2's Dethroning Moment of Suck.

Now that's fair enough.
Besides, i'm more liable to blame mr pshyco anyway, I never liked him.

Yes...I mean, sure Chaos 2 was getting old, but they could at least have given it a somewhat dignified end to its career, instead of trying to smash it down until nothing remained. They wouldn't have done that to say, Tornado.

No   idea. But whilst we're on the subject of favourite bots, I wonder what   the entries for the next Robot Combat Hall of Fame update will be?

August of odd-numbered years, so 08-2011 will be the next one.

I say Run Amok because that's the only robot with Ackerman steering I can think of that acomplished anything.

What about Killerhurtz?


Anyways, if were' on the subject, here's my list of 2011 CRHoF nominees:

  • Anticide:
  • Professor Chaos:  
  • Upheaval:    
  • Warrior SKF:

There's a video of what the finished robot looked like. In its challenge, it beat Block of Wood and 360, but lost to Beauty 2 after attempting 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.
