Aaaaaaaa my point was Tornado and Gravity would be able to run at Live events just fine so why does RW have to happen for them to be made? Just fame hungry? Also the rw reddit has a fair list Badnik.

Just fame hungry? Also the rw reddit has a fair list Badnik.Because Robot Wars gives them an incentive for investing the money required. It's essentially the 'World Cup' of UK robot combat. It allows them to show off their engineering prowess to a nationwide audience, as well as getting to be on Televison.You could ask the same question of literally any of the bots who have been built or upgraded specifically for Battlebots or Robot Wars. I'd hardly call it being 'Fame Hungry'. My question to you in that case is why are YOU competing in Robot Wars if the only reason to is being 'Fame hungry'
Neutron was being upgraded regardless of if RW came back.

Applying isn't a debacle, it's 1 form. And improvements were being done regardless. I'm sorry but when did this conversation turn from teams not being prepped for season 2 to an attack on our character?

Damn someone should let Battlebots and Robogames know that they can't run spinners any more, I'm sure they'll be keen to know why that is.If you can't back up your arguments with anything but a personal attack then I have nothing more to say on the matter.
I wasn't calling them fame hungry, just calling out the fact that those bots are legal in the live circuit and therefore a new series shouldn't be the defining reason they are made is the builders truly enjoy the hobby. I'm done now. Not gonna reply if everything's being taken out of context. Peace.
What do you want me to say? We had a difference in opinion, that happens. You made me look like a bad guy too you know, this isn't a one way street. What we have to do is work past our issues and come together as a community. Leaving fixes nothing, I'm sure you know that. Sorry if I made you feel sh**ty, I'm sure that makes us even. We can accept our differences and continue to look forward to series 2. :)
