Behold, the non-wedgebot for my RedAce match:



I tried making an HS, and it was crap.  Then I tried making a hammer, and it was crap.  Then, I cloned butt from D5, making it generally worse in the process.  It was still kinda crap, but not as much so as the other two, so I just went with it.

And for a certain someone:

The hammer needs to be further up so that if the bot bends down it doesn't shatter, to compensate for that curve the hammer more.

I think you would have done better with the smartzone further back and popup.py instead of omni.

Fun Fact: I was originally going to use Mjolnir for that challenge to see if I could get some use out of that hammer.  So, If I did go with with that plan, it would've been D5 all over again.

...Oh right.  The bot.  Pretty cool.  How long did it take you for the SuperVolt + CB stack?

yeah it was really tricky finding a setup that worked for butt, and smartzone placement was a bitch. honored by the clone tho
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

I made Magnemite.  A lot of people were able to guess this one was me (which is fair, it does have my style to it), but on this one I actually intentionally made a specific hint toward the fact that I built it.  Did you notice it?


So BotM this month turned out a bit weird.  Usually, if there's an artbot and a combat-bot (combot) of similar levels of quality, the combot will win, it seems.  This month, however, I was expecting all artbots thanks to the cheatbot part rule.  We did get a couple of combots, but I was able to win it anyway (thanks!)

I really like making artbots for BotM; it's the only competition where they have a chance to win.

I CHALLENGE YOU THRACKERZOD!



DO YOU ACCEPT!?!

Was it worth making a YouTube video for this?

Also, shouldn't this be in the challenge thread and not his showcase?

(Image taken from the GTPlanet forums (Gran Turismo forums) which I am actually NOT on. I'll join sometime soon, though.)
(You can find me on the Wangan Midnight Expressway forums as well as GTM: http://wmexpressway.net/index.php?showuser=10331)

Totally worth it.

Huh, there is a challenge thread?  Yea, that would make more sense.  Oh, well.

pahahaha dude that's awesome

This is probably the wrong place for it, but since it's not a RA2 challenge, I donno if it'd go in the Challenges thread either.  A mod can move these posts if need be, I guess.

Anyway,

I believe that's enough offtopic for a showcase.

I mean, after much thinking I have no issues with people throwing down the gauntlet in other people's showcases, so the former posts are fine, even if offtopic. This video, however, has already been posted in real robotics and hence has no real point being posted here.

Ah, sorry.  I wanted to make sure people who saw this post knew who won.  Don't worry, it's the last post.  Thanks!

Well, that was fun.  Back on topic now.

Here are a couple alternate skins for Cheeseburger Revolution, since Amerifats vs Britbongs is dead (RIP):



On the left is Rotary Macerator, competing in Back to the Roots.  On the right is Oblivion, competing as part of my 2rios of 2error team.  Oblivion was inspired by the song of the same name by Aviators.  Rotary Macerator was inspired by a Minecraft mod.

I also reskinned my bot from RA2 League, since that's not happening either:



This way, I can re-enter them in stuff without feeling like I'm being really lazy, even though actually I am!

I feel like the spinner on the top one should be further forward, but that's just me.


For once the mods did something right
