I only see 4 wheels. Where's the other pair?
There in between the visible ones. The top HPZ cover them up.

And surely you could sacrifice two axes to put blades on the wedge extenders to protect them?  That would be wise young jedi. Yes?

.... actually now that I think of it (and my hangover is wearing off)  Why so many axes to begin with? With such a wide reach from the tribars, do bots even get close to all those axes to begin with? I know everyone loves putting weapon racks up close to the chassis to protect it, but how come it is so uncommon for the weapon racks to be put forward more meeting with the outer circumference of the spinning weapons?  I would figure that would maximize damage potential and still keep opponents at bay.

The wedge snapper2s are connected to the SIIs? Don't the wedges suck? Also, it would look better if you could make the axes symmetrical instead of just randomly placed.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

10 is plenty. Seism 13 had 10.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

No it doesn't. The more razors means a slower swing speed and thus less damage as well as the fact popups only fire when there underneath other bots. Lots of popups have 10 or less razors and are still effective.

Wrong. I'd say 10 was about perfect, actually.
 
That looks like a very, very nicely built bot. On the subject of the casters, I've noticed the ones on the edges are going 4-3-3 towards the edge, if you see what I mean. If you switch that around and have the row of 4 casters on the outside, then that would offer better protection against HS, I reckon.
 
Also, why is there a random chassis point in the middle of the front?

I'd trade 3 castors for two more razors so you can have an even 3 per snapper. As it is, it seems like the arms with two razors would contact first, dampening the damage from the snappers with three razors.

Not entirely sure how much this hampers any effectiveness, however it's easy enough to do so i think it would be worth a shot.


Also, how the heck are you so good??

Looks messier than your usual bots, Geice. I think it's too short to be effective as a popup (could be proven wrong, but that's from experience) and the caster setup is sub-par. Nice job stacking as always though. Agree with R0b0 on the razors, plus the wide ones look too wide to get a good hit on a chassis.
