Whats a Tostig?
He was the brother of Harold Godwinson, and fought alongside the viking leader Harald "The Bastard" Hardrada against him in the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066.
I thought william was the bastard?
Harald was also known as "The Bastard" by many.
That was a very bastardy battle then
Not really- Stamford Bridge was between Harold and Harald with Tostig. You're thinking of Hastings, where William fought Harold.
Oh yeah, i remember now, herpa derp
No worries- the little recap from the GF93 School of History comes at no extra cost  :3

Getting back on topic, Frieezez, shall i just send another bot? I can't figure out why Beta works and my bot doesn't, with the same mappings. Do you want me to send something easier to AI?

Sorry, but I guess so, it isn't seeming to work.

What were you trying to attach to what?
I was trying to attach a medium drum to another medium drum. I then tried to attach beater bars to the first one, which I did, but I couldn't attach them to the second one along the line.

Pictures?
Here-

For some reason, I cannot attach the bars to the second drum.

Ah, OK. I'll consider my options, and see what I can do.

Although by this...what do you mean when referring to "The Chain"?

The chain of components, so in that case, ME-Tite Extender-DSL Bar-DSL Bar-Perm-Drum-Drum. That's 7 already.

Oh, OK. Not exactly the sharpest one in the drawer when it comes to these things, but I see now. However, I was able to improvise with a single drum and beater bars, laying them out quite close together to create a weapon that looked like a powerful single drum. It was quite effective too, being able to shred Second Sentinel quite easily.

Rule of Seven? (multi+extender+DSL bar+DSL bar+Perm+Drum+Drum equals seven components).
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Lol wasn't even looking clearly when I made that reply.

You know rule of 7 just don't occur to me anymore since I notice them right away.  It's the asymmetries of components that bothers me the most.
