There is the question of impartiality. If there's a particularly close match, and the Judge's Decision puts the judge's robot through, then I think some people might see that as bias.

This is a GTM Battlebots. I've always wanted to see a GTM Battlebots. This is an oppertunity to use a shell with flail 70-kg hammers.

Do you honestly see SKBT or I not being impartial?

Also, yay I can enter Sleek.

I would give the judge's the option to enter or not

Actually...that's not a bad idea, since the judging is based solely on attacks.

SKBT and G.K., you can enter! :DDDDDDDDDDD

No, just asking for trouble

Personally, I don't, but I do think there are members on this board who would.

No, the 2 members who I gave the opportunity to be judges I knew were trustworthy; IF ANYONE HAS A PROBLEM WITH THAT THEN I WILL DO SOMETHING!

Whoops wrong words, I meant give them the option to judge and if they wish not to judge they can enter and then you move to the next person with the next highest votes.

NFX · « **Reply #168 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:17:23 PM »

I completely agree with you, freeziez, I think GK and SKBT will call the matches as fairly and impartially as possible.

I do have a prototype, but it required quite a lot of axle loading.

Same here.

^This would work^

You CANNOT allow someone to judge and enter, not that I don't trust GK and SKBT, but it is just asking for trouble

That's pretty much the road I was going down. I would have no problem with them being judges if they entered, but there's bound to be someone who would.

Alrighty then, do G.K. and SKBT want to judge or enter?

Hard decision. I'll get back to you.

There are i.r.l. flail shell spinners. Examples: Mauler Seasons 4-5 and Caliban.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #177 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:45:24 PM »

They are not shell spinners.

Natef · « **Reply #178 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:45:33 PM »

I don't think I would be allowed to enter a popup, so I may not do this.
