Now that BBEANS4 is over, it's time to vote on bonus awards!
There are four awards up for grabs: Best Rookie, Coolest Bot, Most Fearsome Opponent, and Bot That Really Should Have Done Better But Didn't Due To Bad Luck. Click here for descriptions of the awards. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/bbeans/hof.htm)
The winners of these awards will all get to pick one of the prize components!
You can vote for any bot you want, with three exceptions:
1. You can't vote for yourself.
2. You can't vote for Hazardous Contraption.
3. You can't vote for a ranked bot for Best Rookie.
Voting starts NOW and ends in one week, on October 24.
Vote like this:
My votes:
Best Rookie - Iron Spaghetti. I could say Enfilad3, but Scrap Daddy was less well known when he entered. And that first-round loss and subsequent climb up the loser's bracket was impressive.
Coolest Bot - Rage III. 3 wheels. 'Nuff said.
Most Fearsome Opponent - Diarrhea Of A Madman. That every single one of its wins was by TKO, and most (if not all) of them under a minute is all you need to know.
BTRSHDBBDDTBL - ThunderStruck! - When you enter decently good bots in two BBEANS events, you hope to get at least one win. No such luck for ianh05.

Best Rookie: Iron Spaghetti
I didn't know Scrap was less known than me. He's been around longer.
Anyways, as the only shell spinner entered, it had a very impressive run. Props go to Philetbabe's BrasOuvert too, coming out of obscurity and picked to lose right off the bat, it proved quite a match for most bots.
Coolest Bot: Diarrhea of a Madman
Big, mean, dominating, and probably the best named bot. It should go down beside Mako as one of the best VS's ever.
Most Fearsome Opponent: Diarrhea of a Madman
Nobody wanted to fight it. Nobody. Whenever someone won, it was "Crap I got DoaM next." No celebration, just fear.
BTSHDBBDDTBL: Haymaker
Yeah, it did decent, but I've fought bots like it, and I can say for sure it could have beaten every bot in the field. If I remember correctly, all of its losses were OOTA's as well.
-
I'm picking the same thing as R0B0SH4RK, but I'm putting System failure in the BTSHDBBDDTBL spot because I thought the weapon was unique, and it looked like it would of done better than it did.
-
I suppose I can vote too...
Best Rookie: Iron Spaghetti :It was Scrap Daddy's FIRST DSL bot.
Coolest Bot: Enfilad3 : I've studied the bot and i can tell it's really well built. And that skin too. It deserves being at least second.
Most Fearsome Opponent: Diarrhea of a Madman: All offense. That's all.
BTSHDBBDDTBL: Smoker: See: Smoker VS No Leaf Clover, although i could have put System Flailure too.
-
Best Rookie: Iron Spaghetti: It's progression through the loser's bracket was totally worth watching (I could have easily put HazCon or Enfilad3)
Coolest Bot: System Flailure: I still can't get over that hypnotic (not to mention unique) weapon.
Most Fearsome Opponent: Diarrhea of a Madman: The success of Mako in BBEANS 2 gave this bot some serious street cred IMO.
BTSHDBBDDTBL: Haymaker: I seriously expected him to win but the arena layout hindered his performance IMO.
-
Best Rookie:Iron Spaghetti: Scrap Daddy built a good bot and the progression through the loser's bracket was amazing.
Honorable Mentions: Enfilad3
Coolest Bot: Red Tide VI: The skin and the design were both good. A very good looking and very aesthetically pleasing bot
Honorable Mentions: DOAM, System Flailure
Most Fearsome Opponent: Haymaker: Before the tourney, that pic of Haymaker getting 15000+ damage in 1 hit vs. MOE scared us all.
Honorable Mentions: DOAM, Enfilad3
BTSHDBBDDTBL: T-4: This was the perfect arena for it, but it got some bad matchups. When it could show its power, it did.
Honorable Mentions: Haymaker, Smoker
-
Best Rookie: Enfilad 3: For reaching the second place.
Coolest Bot: System Flailure: The weapon is just too cool and effective.
Most Fearsome Opponent: Red, Red, Green?: I didnt belive my eyes on how fast it eliminated everyone in the rumble.
BTSHDBBDDTBL: Haymaker: It was the arena that made him not to get to his full potential.
-
Best Rookie: Enfilad 3.
Coolest Bot: System Flailure (Ok, I'm biased toward attempts at new designs.)
Most Fearsome Opponent: Diarrhea of a Madman.
BTSHDBBDDTBL: Haymaker. Agreed, arena was not right for this cool bot.

Rookie:
Iron Spaghetti: Possibly one of the most powerful entrances into the world of BBEANS.
Coolest:
Rage 3: A rammer with three wheels? Nice.
Most fearsome:
System Flailure: Having a flail on it's axe means it has a faster weapon, thus more powerful. Scary.
BTSHDBBDDTBL:
Ripterra: It's match-ups, the arena and fate were against it. Rest In Pieces.
Somebody, your standings are wrong.

Congratulations to our winners! You'll receive a PM shortly; please reply with your prize choice.
FYI, my choice is the Nifty Battery/Control. That means I'll be able to use it for future BBEANS (though not the other prizes, even though I have them).

Can you post pics of all 6 prizes, or tell me a place to see them?

Pictures of the prizes are on the first page of the Rules and Registration thread. https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=860
