RpJk's Stock Showcase: "Bring out your dead and unfinished design."

[madman3]

RPJK, it would probably be best for you to just completely ignore Inf.

Meh, deal with the fact he pissed you off, because TBH you were extremely confrontational.
Like everyone said, shrink the chassis around the components. It may help if you try and remember the rough size of each component used so you can have a better estimate of how small to make your chassis.

[RpJk]

On my SNS/HS or all my robots because I am going to rebulid some of my robots I first showcased and make them much better with what I have learned.

[Scorpion]

All your designs should have a much tighter chassis, it gives you more weight to play around with.

[Naryar]

Too much spam in this showcase. Suicide Boy, Freeziez, Avalanche i'm looking at you.

Anyways, that ironbot prototype is going to get destroyed if you sent it like that. Quite clearly not enough weapons for a HW SnS... i think a good stock HW SnS should outweapon a 36HS, since there are so many HS in ironbot. AKA you should have more than 30-40 weapons on a frontal assault bot (HS, rammer, SnS, poker, etc)if you hope for a decent run.

[HurricaneAndrew]

Suicide Boy? I made a single off-topic post... Eat sh**.

[RpJk]

Ok I was looking at my robots when I looked at my RoboLeague entry Iron Rain. So I changed bits around and changed it into this generic Face Spinner. It does alright but I think it does need a Wedge so what do you think?

[Natef]

Not bad (I think)!

1. NO SWEARING including ones like s*** and p**s. However you can swear in a foreign language if you want. Dyna drewi. But it's fair
2. After I post a Robot up to 15 comments are allowed to be said. Bad thing because you may get a lot of feedback.
3. Anyone who posts randomly and say a random word like `Potatoes` or `Brick`etc I will try and make sure they won't be allowed on my showcase for up to a fortnight. Fair enough, but a bit overpowered. You know you can just delete some posts.
4. All the noobs who are despised by the `Higher-Ups` in which I Mean like good buliders WILL NOT BE ALLOWED HERE! Garvin, fair enough, but I think people like AwesumSauce actually do give some advice.
5. Only I can double post Here or  the `Higher-Ups`! Fair enough, I only double post when I need to bump my threads.
6. You can go a wee bit of topic as long as it has to do with the Robot Combat. Fair enough
7. No spamming!!!!!!!!!!! No one spams showcases apart from Garvin, Hard Bot sometimes, and when the robot's are terrible (your's arent BTW, I think they're good)

Eh, YOU started that spam with your sarcasm.

Now about your rules...

1-Fine for me, swearing isn't allowed in that part anyways.
2-Believe me, the more comments you have on a robot the better, if they are good anyways. And you probably won't get 15 comments on a robot anyways.
3-Agreed. But this is spam (rule number 6), so you might just clean up your showcase.
4-I disagree. Don't judge on the person, judge on post content. If some n00b has suddenly a GOOD insight on your bot, then by all means he has the right to post it here. Sure if Garvin posts here you can probably remove his post, but that's because his post content is crap 99% of the time.
5-As a general rule of thumb, don't double post unless you have a good reason to do so.
6-This is a showcase, a little bit of off-topic is generally tolerated. Though there is a real robotics section for a reason.
7-Well of course. And TRIAS, there is much more spam than only Hard Bot and Garvin.

About your bot, it will probably be better with a wedge. To gain enough weight, just remove the plow.

[RpJk]

Well looks like I am defeated in this argument
Remove all rules except number 1
Now no more of the topic lets see what people think of the robot.

[Scorpion]

You need to build right up to the weight limit, you should always get the weight to at least within 10 KG of the max weight limit, really less than 5 KG though is ideal.
Nar was right, a wedge would be beneficial to this design, you can also remove the extra extender for that plow and effe snapper load it on to the two extenders holding the motors one instead. 

[infiniteinertia]

MR AWESOME is the reason this spam bull started. Your sarcastic post was actually funny, he is just a moron.

Just funny how a brushfire starts so fast...Your rules too, are pretty fair. IMHO

BUT the bot isnt crazy generic, you will just have trouble with the likes of wedgy bots. Just get rid of all the extra space and see what more you can do.

[Sage]

The only weapons that do any good on FS are razors. (Gut ripping works ALOT better than frontal grinding).
