You has made me angry man.

Also, when's BB3 coming out? I'm gonna take NO PRISONERS this time.

Did you win BB2? No.

Splash would be nice...

Yeah, I should put that up...

Also, when's BB3 coming out? I'm gonna take NO PRISONERS this time.

Right after I get 10 votes here.

But why so anti climatic?

I had thought Badnik's 3-day record was for signups, vids, AND awards, so I was really rushing. :P

You do realize how flawed your logic is, right? In big tournaments like BBEANS or Clash Cubes there is almost always going to be one bot that could beat the champion, but does that automatically make that bot the champion? No, it does not.

Why the hll do we need an SFTW award for this?


I mean, combat wise Stagfish's bot was the worst, but when you look at it from an IRL standpoint it was a great bot.


This shouldn't be treated like some damn Starcore level stock tourney, and we shouldn't be condemning people for entering bots that aren't going to go far in IRL tournaments.


If we do that, people will start to push the envelope of IRL, like those cheap Sheck Spinners. That's what pretty much made DSL realistic the way it is.
