OK guys, listen, I can't please you all. If I let Garvin continue the tournament, half of you will be upset, and if I disqualify him, the other half of you will be mad.

Honestly, I didn't see anything unrealistic about Garvin's bot, so I won't disqualify him. I'm sorry to anyone who finds this unsportsmanlike.

OK then- what should I do? Is my entry still required?

No. I'm sorry.

1. What do you mean?

As in you cut out 23 seconds in the first video, you should have re-done the match if you pressed the Fraps record key late. Don't be lazy

No, I just had another scene from the beginning to that part and forgot to put it in. Whoops.

(edit): Entire Round 1 filmed, 2 matches go to the judges.

Nads. All that work for nothing...oh well :/

Freez could do a special video after it`s over: GTG vs. GF

Or a rumble, Challenge belt, or other sort of cool side event with me in it

You really should use the f10 cam, it's easier to see the opponents that way

Also the tail on Hard Drive (my bot) is just a tail. No srimech.

PREDICTIONS

Conraaa- Looks tough, should do well if it can last 3 minutes
GRW- I like Biohazard flippers, too bad this one didn't last 6 more seconds :P
Garvin- Do I have to say it?
NFX- I love this bot. Shame I have to beat it >:P
Vertigo: Another sick realistic bot. Maybe this think can beat Garvin. I HAS FAITH!
Scrap- Nice job getting to Round 2, but IDK if it can beat 123.
R1885- I hardly expected one FBD in this tourney, much less two. I dunno how this one will fare against Thy's rammer.
MassimoV- This bot looks pretty cool. Too bad it lost.
027- It has a chance to win this thing. As long as it doesn't come up against Mike or Preytor.
Me- I have a chance as long as I'm not flipped by anything :P
Mike- Kinda ruins the spirit of this with the tiny chassis, but looks kinda like Mauler on steroids :P Don't like it too much though...
123- THIS LOOKS AWESOME and obviously performs pretty well too.
S_M- I love this bot. It just looks so professional-looking. Rooting for this guy!
Thyrus- Well if looks could kill...
DSC- Sweet bot. Too bad it has to fight 027's spinner D:
Preytor- I like the side teeth. Gives it an IRL feel. Should go pretty far

Conraaa · « **Reply #89 on:** June 27, 2011, 09:59:47 AM »

My main worry is S_M going over my bot and damaging the top of my robot. I'm pretty sure that I will survive the 3 minutes, it's more how much damage affects the judges decision. If it's come to that.

Oh and freeziez you say you're recorded all the round 1 matches, but you arent posting them? Oh you tease.

NFX · « **Reply #90 on:** June 27, 2011, 10:17:13 AM »

Just so he and the judges have time to properly judge and deliberate the match. =]

Conraaa · « **Reply #91 on:** June 27, 2011, 10:57:16 AM »

I know that, but that still leaves 4 matches which we could watch while they talk. :P
I have a feeling I came across as impatient then. Oh well.

G.K. · « **Reply #92 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:07:55 AM »

I've only seen one of the matches for the judges so far.

Vertigo · « **Reply #93 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:10:36 AM »

Hang on, that means I survived the match, wow

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #94 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:11:27 AM »

How can you be sure Vertigo?

Conraaa · « **Reply #95 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:15:12 AM »

I think one of them may be Me vs S_M. Not sure though.

freeziez · « **Reply #96 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:22:20 AM »

I've filmed the entire Round 1 and I was wrong, 3 matches go to the judges.

G.K. · « **Reply #97 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:24:04 AM »

ooh, fun.

Thyrus · « **Reply #98 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:25:09 AM »

I bet it`s me vs Ribbs. G.K.! vote for me! ;D

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #99 on:** June 27, 2011, 11:25:49 AM »

As much as I respect the builders, that entire third row of bots is IRL unrealistic if you ask me. Four VS on one bot in real life?
