dope is an American slang term for "rad" or "cool" or "awesome"

af is just an abbreviation of "as f***"

Just because I don't post bots, it doesn't mean that I don't build. I was just busy and lazy these days to post any. I will try to showcase some, starting with this :

Nothing can escape, once it enters into the event horizon...
(DPS is damage per second)
I know, that you will say, that a caster armoured popup will kill it and blah blah, but...
You can't WBP against this bot, trust me. Also, as you can see from the battleshot, it's a weapon-removing-machine. These are many irons stacked on every shaft, and due to the fast spinning, when something is hit, all the 30 shafts make a 2000+ each in less then a second, then after 1 circle the process is repeated.............................. I will stop the explanations here  :mrgreen:

It would also better serve from a different method of mounting the drive IMO. With the snappers horizontally attached to the baseplate instead.

2000 DPS/second ? Clearly you haven't been ramming enough rammers together.

Nope, the skin is perfect.

It will be more stable, but I fire the snappers (spread the drive) now as an anti-stuck system.

:facepalm:
2000+ PER SHAFT (one cluster of irons) ! And all the 30 shafts hit multiple times per 1 second.......

Naming a robot Event Horizon is just beyond me, i'm a space GEEK.
Still, it looks deadly and reminds me of Jupiter from Starcore.

That looks so awesome. Can you use the GTM image uploader, though? Imageshack gets pretty annoying.

VERY nice! apart from having too many batts (but at 3000kg who cares) it looks great.
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.

No need for an apology, I'm OK with it, the problem is, why I even bother to name my bots, if no one ever reads them...

...having too many batts...
The batteries are actually not even close to be an "OK", but I don't want to make the bot slower with more weight.

A new experiment :

Awesome work, surprised no one has done this before given how awesome a triple chained FS is. I would love to see it in action  :gawe:  I can AI it for you if you want.

CB and FB made some triple chained VSes before

The bot looks nice but those wedges probably suck. looks like it could also benefit from either having the spinners further back or having longer front supports to lower the chances of it tipping over when hitting other bots.

Just saying, batteries don't actually count as weight in the chassis, so you can put as many as you want IIRC

They do count as weight. if you make a seesaw chassis with 2 blacks on one end and only one black on the other end and go to the test garage, the end with the 2 blacks will always fall down.

^QFT. That is how sh**s like ItI works without wedges...

True.

The bot don't have that problem, so no need for a change about that.
Although, I must say, it's a lame bot at general !

As usual, Venko, you leave Me in a state of awe as to how you make such crazyness.
speaking of which, what are you holding down the HPZs with? Anchors? Snappers? What? O,o
