Yayoi's "showcase" of stock FAILURES
« on: May 31, 2009, 09:29:51 PM »
As the thread title suggests, ALL bots that I post in this thread SUCK.

I will admit that I do not know how to stack.
I will admit that I cannot beat EMERGENCY with a LW.
I will admit that my stock bots have more empty space than space itself.

But enough of me admitting things, here's an absolutely appalling LW HS:

Very nice. Use an HP-Ztek with the extra weight. :D

[Edit] I'm pretty sure that LW can take out EMERGENCY within a round.

First I might shrink the chassis and use plastic so I can maybe get 6 maces instead of this stupid 3 maces setup. Also, does anyone know of the "blue snappers"? I've heard these were much lighter than the green ones I used.

Dont use so much chassis space (Sarcasm) and be more efficient with snappers.

Just be aware with the weight limits and how far you can go. Also, experiment, sometimes I  just make a big chassis and then stack things in for practice/fun, then I try putting it in smaller bots.

No they don't suck, if then you'll be posting SFTW's.

This is an average LW, but it does not suck.

You stole this gimmick from Redline, didn't you? also, EVIL Spambot!
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

I should stop trying to be cool and stick to stupid DSL:
Bot's "real" name is 'A Test Dummy', but I probably should of called it 'A Pile of S***'.

Could stand up to some of the SCv3 LWs if it weren't for the fact that this bot bounces up and down more than a s***. It was originally going to have a snowplow for protection, but I prefer bots with absolute maximum offense.

HOLY **** I DOUBLE POSTED

Try to axle load the snapper leg out so you can attach a HPZ directly to the snapper, reducing chassis size and saving more weight.

And you can use the eFFe glitch so the maces can be closer to each other. :D

And attached to that is the Z-tek, I assume?  It's just that it looks like you've got enough space to set the motor in place without using a snapper.   Do so if you can to liberate some weight and space.

Yep. But he probably wants a bursted spinner instead of a normal one.
