Tibsy's Failcase

[RedAce]

Ditto.


Also, you never know. The tiers of entries I've got are at sporadic levels.

[Tibsy]

I know I've entered this blindly. But really, I'm just looking for a bit of fun, what's wrong with that?
I know I'm not the best at Stock but being honest all this is making me want to never bother with it, I'm considering deleting this thread anyway as my heart just isn't into it.

Deleting showcases is frowned upon dude. You are new, but don't just give up man. Just because you don't have a good showcase start doesn't mean you should just delete your showcase. Hell, I've had an embarrassing past in my stock showcase, but I never gave up, I just shook it off and kept trying to improve, and I did. You'll find your calling soon, it might take years, but remember to be patient.

Nothing, but the main point of a showcase is to get some points for improvement so you're bound to get some advice, even if you're just building for fun. Even though you already entered your bot, you can still take 09's advice for your future bots instead of saying he's 'kinda late'.

If you don't want to improve your stock skills, then don't take advice on board and do your own thing, no one is forcing you otherwise but don't make constructive comments put you off making bots.

Hey, don't give up.  If you're not feeling it right now, just take a break or something.  My showcase has plenty of sizable gaps in it.

Anyway, try not to get too down.

Well I've been chewed up and

controversially

spat out of Robots In Space hosted by RedAce.

I guess you lot were right... It's not effective enough.
Well, I've patched up Yeti, sadly he's officially "retired"

Thinking you should delete this showcase i see ? Hah, want to see real suckiness ?, Take at look at about 90% of my showcase, here you will see what is a noobishness filled showcase, if any showcase should have been deleted long ago and who s'existence is a shame, it would be mine, but i kept going and now if you compare the last few bots i showcased with the first ones, the diference in quality is pretty big imo, all of this because i still played stock, even if i showcased my bots very rarely, even if most of my time i spent here was lurking, i still built more bots, to sharpen my skills, and one day, reach the levels of the top builders here, so NEVER, EVER, give up, if you apply the advice they give you and keep building, it will be only a matter of time before you climb in skill and practice, so hang in there and keep going...

You shouldn't let one tournament affect you so much. Yeti did just as well as Vrykolakas did, and I've been building stock for four years.

[Tibsy]

I'll just sneak this one in here:


If anyone who entered or watched the Robots In Space tournament, you'll remember my old entry Carbonate. Yeah, wasn't very good well... Here's is the new Carbonate... Which is probably worse...

Looking at it now... It's just ugly.

Get rid of the square extenders and rotate the motors so you can use shinies.

I'm completely rebuilding it, it was certainly an improvement but not a move in the correct direction, haha. Thanks for the feedback.
