Well, I did see a game named metal slug somewhere so i was aware of that when i named it.
Also, you could use video game titles, or movies as ideas but that's about all i can think of. i hope i could help. :)

What I've taken from this is to rip off anything that sounds kind of cool. I'll try that :)

Doesn't matter for me, I'm already toast for what I started in Paranoia's showcase.

10 minute LW sent last night. Simple wedge, FTW.

I'm a little worried that I may have taken the 'tryhard IRL' approach and now I feel bad.

AlexGRFan97 · « **Reply #165 on:** July 18, 2013, 10:07:57 AM »

I don't know what "tryhard" even means anymore due to all the goddamn definitions out there. Does it mean you're trying to win the competition despite it being IRL? Does it mean that you're basing your robot off of IRL stereotypes (e.g weak wedge with exposed wheels and absolutely no weapon in the insult form of the word?) or are you using the real life definition of tryhard, which involves imitating the reigning champion's designs? Are you even just making an averagely successful design (VS) to fit in with the rest of the competitors? It can be construed in so many different ways.

OT: Yes, more competitors. It won't be so empty after all. I was just getting tired of seeing my name in the last few numbers. You wouldn't think I sent my entries in the first 2 weeks.

Considering my MW entry has gone from 'streamline HS with no srimech and lots of weaknesses' to 'generic invertible box with huge drum', I just feel I haven't done my usual policy of building entrants for their looks this time around.

Sign-ups (Supposedly) closed. Time for splashes

MassimoV · « **Reply #176 on:** July 20, 2013, 08:38:54 AM »

I'll be coming home today. But I have to leave again Monday for another week so I may just keep signups open.

Shield · « **Reply #177 on:** July 20, 2013, 08:51:09 AM »

Where you goin'?

MassimoV · « **Reply #178 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:45:17 PM »

List updated. I'm going to University of Illinois . I'm going to leave signups open for another week cause I'm leaving tomarrow morning. I got alot of work to do and I don't even know if I could get the splashes done tonight. Even if I got them all up, they would just be sitting there for a week while nothing happens.

You added my MW and my HW twice.
