- Realistic Rule applies very strongly, IT MUST BE FOLLOWED (Garvin).

I thought it was pretty realistic.

It was an FS, those are not IRL bots.

I don't know what a FS nor do I know what a IRL is.

FS: Face Spinner and IRL: In real life.

To elaborate a bit; face spinner designs have certainly exist IRL. (http://robotcombat.com/images/bblv00/unknown17.jpg "Grunion" competed at Battlebots 2.0 as a lightweight, it was more of a grinding disc, but still.) However, the very long extending spikes on GTG's design aren't realistic as they would most likely buckle quite quickly in battle in the real world, and to be fair it was just GTG taking advantage of how Ra2 works.

The shell spinners were as cheap as, if not, more than Garv's bot. "Dog Collar" shell don't exist because it would be easier to use anything else.
Not only were they as flawed as Garv's FS, A person has also noted the fact that they were high tier designs. Both people who entered Sheck spinners didn't care for the IRL segment and are getting away with it for not being garvin.

I'll put up a new rule.

Let me write it: Robots must look as close to IRL designs as possible. (No overabundance of weapons, unrealistic weapon sizes, disproportionate designs.)

These are exactly what IRL should entail, IMHO - I just hadn't come up with a way of paraphrasing it. This is a very well worded idea.

System32 · « **Reply #158 on:** July 16, 2011, 11:22:14 AM »

My personal definition is MUCH stricter. This is just the most basic one.

SKBT · « **Reply #159 on:** July 16, 2011, 11:26:05 AM »

For the record US featherweight shell spinne Steel Shadow has at least 12 impact teeth, Phrizbee and Megabyte both had large amounts of small teeth. IMHO it's more unrealistic to have two 70kg hammers than a large amount of small DS teeth.
