I picked up some motor mounts aswell so I am ever closer to making a robot.
And could someone tell me why Team Toon robots have a tendancy to get stuck in the wall? Tiny Toon, then Tiny Hurtz.

No competition

And yeah, was nice putting faces to names :D
May I ask GK, why did you ask what the armour was when I'm sure that you know by now? XD

Roboteers question time was new though...
Title: Re: roaming robots
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on May 09, 2011, 11:29:32 AM: Because G.K. said I could eat Explosion, I said steel wasn't really edible, G.K. said Hardox wasn't steel, I said it was etc....
Also, why so serious Vert?
Title: Re: roaming robots
Post by: Vertigo on May 09, 2011, 11:32:28 AM: Am I, really?

I never notice, especially when I'm busy, when I've got a robot in 2/3 of the fights :P
Title: Re: roaming robots
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on May 09, 2011, 11:35:14 AM: Yeah, you seemed way more focused than anyone else there, I guess it's good though.
Title: Re: roaming robots
Post by: Vertigo on May 09, 2011, 11:36:56 AM: Anyway, I may just come out with the bad news for you guys

We're not coming back to Aylesbury again *apparently*
Title: Re: roaming robots
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on May 09, 2011, 11:37:48 AM: :(, I'd really only go to the free stuff. (Might go to a full event in the future though)
