US is where the sparks fly

I agree. US bots are better. But brit bots are way more creative.

US: A load of spinners and the occasional rammer.
UK: A load of flippers and the occasional rammer.
Wonder if we'll see any Britbots competing? I reckon something on the current Live Circuit, like Terrorhurtz or Iron Awe, could do OK, and even with them, we could see newer and more diverse designs take shape over here!
Are there any successful crushers in the US atm? I don't usually keep up with it, that's why I want this program to be made so I can.

Be happy. ROBOTS.
To say that one has more creative bots is dumb because for every Razer, there's a Sewer Snake and vice versa. Be happy. ROBOTS.
Titanic and Avatar legend making robot combat show?
I think I have heard it all.
Please God it will be aired in the UK.

I feel like Mark Burnett is going to have more control than Cameron just based on their areas of expertise. Burnett was the guy who brought us The Apprentice and Survivor. But anyways, as long as Comedy Central is kept 500 feet away at all times then woot! I've always said that that robot combat could find a second wind on TV if someone was willing to put up a large enough cash injection.

I think both countrys are creative in there own way. US is creative in the efficiency and how effective things are while the UK is creative in the form style and looks and uniqueness.
Maybe if this gets big, we'll see spinners back in the UK - wouldn't that be lovely! <3NO!
At least in the UK, the competitors go home with something that vaguely resembles a robot, rather than a bin bag full of scrap. Thus they can return for more battles without having to spend a lot of time and money putting their robot back together.Wait till after this weekend, lol
Ten bucks says it will be rigged like that crap that the Science Channel tried to air.
You lot are so slow, I knew of this weeks back :P
My only complaint is the name, Robogeddon is so... generic.You have to admit, Robot Wars is pretty generic too.

:(
Spinners cause more upset for the roboteers but for the audience? Well, I know I'd rather see a spinner/flipper match than a flipper/rammer match.
Oh I don't deny it's better for the audience, it's not better for us roboteer's though.Maybe if this gets big, we'll see spinners back in the UK - wouldn't that be lovely! <3NO!

That site is not a 100% credible source. It's very opinionated and biased and has been wrong in the past. Discovery said the event is going to happen, and yes someone from battlebots is directly involved in this.

The reason why is because you bombarded him with trivial questions about bots that fought once and never where seen again, not to mention the fact you stole an entire work of his with out permission. Ask Aaron is a Q&A for builders, not trivia pursuit.He calls me and my friends "Fanboys" just because we gather info on Robot Wars, and work on the Robot Wars Wiki, and expect a high standard of quality on said pages. He refuses questions about old robots even though he says he knows the answers. He's a smart-arse, but can't take nearly as much as he gives; he ovrerreacts to everything instead of just ignoring trolls. I'd hazard that the Joerger gene pool is just brimming with Aspergers, don't know whose bright idea it was to give them a computer.That site is not a 100% credible source.

Wait, when was it biased?

It's not just RWW, it's Battlebots and Robotica wiki's too. Something about having detailed information on lesser known competitors rubs them the wrong way.so he wants wikis to have less content to read ?
That may be, but his initial reaction was so hostile that I assumed he just wanted to blow off steam. Long story short we did eff up, but we eventually made it right, and he still calls the practice of wiki-making a "fanboy" thing; I really have no idea where we stand. We stopped asking trivia questions when he said he wasn't fielding them anymore, you can see that all of the recent ones are questions that could be answered by a page on the wiki.
More to the point, my problems weren't about anything he said to me directly, but about the way he gives snarky responses, and then gets gobsmacked when he receives them (which he could just choose to delete from the inbox).
ANYways, that's enough digressing, I apologize for the tangent. To make it up, here's something I found when I searched "cameron robot" http://www.discoverychannel.ca/Article.aspx?aid=34910 (http://www.discoverychannel.ca/Article.aspx?aid=34910) It looks like there won't be a combat element after all but the robotics stuff is pretty cool.
Here's the best part. His hobby is maintaining the Wikipedia page "List of Celebrities on the Hollywood Walk of Fame." Not researching mind you, just reverting edits when someone adds a false star, or adds a star that has been announced but not yet installed. But oh no, we're the ones with the frivolous obsession.I learn something new every day- it does indeed seem quite ridiculous and hypocritical to me, and this is coming from the British Idiot with the Cassius II obsession! Mind you though, if there's anyone whom I think needs a star on there, it's Cookie Monster.
We should all ask him questions about qualifiers to piss him off.
