Heheh.  Thanks guys.  I like it too... it is just terrible in combat.  Joe is right, I could have gone with the obvious uber-damaging weapons, but I wanted to stay true to the roots of the bot and make it a true boxer.

Feast your eyes on my first ever showcased bot from many moons ago.

I was so proud of it... I felt it was innovative and powerful.  Needless to say it didn't take long for the vets to tear it apart and peer-pressure me into downloading starcore to step up my game.  Ah, how the times never change.

@Naryar.  I have no idea why I put a ballast in there... really I don't.  We are all noobs in the beginning right? Hahaha.

@Badnik96  Blue Thunder was one of my first bots, but it wasn't the first one in my showcase. I think that one was 3rd or 4th.  Built around the same time though. Same with Rustmonster.  My other first bots were Blade Runner (Shudder... damn that was a horrible bot... I still have it) and Anklebiter.  Suckerpunch was built a short while after that when I got crazy and made all sorts of weird concept bots.

Blade Runner and Suckerpunch are in my noob bot voting thread. I let people choose which bot was going to compete in Noob Warz.  I had to skin Suckerpunch for the tourney though.

I will take a screen of Anklebiter a bit later this eve & post it.

Ballasts are still cool. It's just that Nary is much more obnoxious than the rest of us.
