They're working on a heavyweight version of Pipe Wench, or at least they were. Dunno if that's changed because they're calling it Evil Plunger now. Devil's Plunger HW maybe?

Well that's a shame.

all good bots end up retiring at some point or another. it's the way the sport works.

ah. but what i meant was all good robots eventually get retired

Badnik96 · « **Reply #46 on:** March 13, 2015, 11:23:50 PM »

There are now 2 robots named Prometheus in the HW class.

Discuss.

Also First Lefts got replaced with Brutality. Guess they couldn't finish it in time.

I propose a moratorium on the following robot names:

Spin Doctor
Black Widow
Spike
Prometheus
Zeus
Thor
Twister
Hammerhead
Cyclone

Possibly a pusher? I heard from Kurtis that the guy normally does sumo...

Did you just say "totes"?

Also, Zachary Lytle posted on FB his boatload of bots for his "Bot Bash" party service. Looks like he'll have a lot of work to do in addition to competing with "The Bomb"!

Neat, are there any other rosters you have?
