Wonder how that Donut works, also I would've entered something like Kill except it would be triple flat wedges, didn't think it would be original enough and didn't have time.

Doesn't look like Trov chassis to me, more like BFE(which I think was allowed for this), good luck to whoever got Thrack's chassis(shouldn't we have a list to see who got which chassis?)

Post by: 090901 on October 12, 2016, 03:16:57 PM: It's Trov glitch, I've done it before and made bots with it. (Don't remember how to do it nowadays though)

Thought Trov Glitch was only about having the thin walls? Guess it's about using the chassis creation rectangle/circle in general to do odd stuff.

Trov Glitch is more about being able to place chassis points really close to one another. The Donut chassis isn't actually a complete circle at all- there's a beginning and end but the chassis walls are really close to one another so it's hard to tell.

Thought it was something like that at first.

Thanks for the picture, also surprised how it's almost on the grid.

Nah dude, its always good to enter tournaments, especially if you learn from it. And in the format I use, even if you lose every match you get 3 matches, which I think is good. Post your bot in your showcase and improve it!

It's not your fault, you got drawn a misshaped chassis.

Quite enjoyed all of the group A fights.

up tomorrow. It's the same as PC, so seed 1 from group 1 will play seed 2 from group 4, seed 1 from group 2 plays seed 2 from group 3 etc, same with lower bracket but with seeds 3 and 4 obviously

wheres the bracket man

It's usually an early option in the "extras" section of the components tab. I'd use a small wedge instead.

If I calculated correctly, my useless bot is either:
A. Going to deweapon my opponent and have the most painful match I've ever seen.
B. Going to be gutted and have the most painful match it's ever going to see.

Side note: Go Johny 'da Ro'bit, Razor Guy this thing, yo.

Seriously, screw wedges and my history with them. It feels so cathartic to beat them, even with a non-wedged bot. Sorry to those who had to face my bot. I probably would have been salty on the other side.

not sure how anybody can be salty about losing to a giant ted cruz bot named #CRUZMISSILE
