027's not entering, I won't either because I won't have much RA2 access until my comp gets fixed (it died again)

I'll still run BoF2 (I have a RA2 running computer somewhere) though.

inb4 I rant because i get some OK bot that is totally RUINED by ONE absolutely random point of building...

And then win again.

But it's lightweights. It's harder to fix errors made by unskilled builders with less total weight available.

I AM IN AND I AM CAPTAIN. AND I AM GONNA WIN NO MATTER WHAT YOU FOOLS SAY.

I will also captain. We don't know who's in our team, do we? We just receive a bot and pass it along the chain.

Yes, of course. Is your memory failing ?

But when you are captain you don't really pass a bot... you build a chassis, send it, then get it back 2 weeks after, and discover how far your team went from your original idea.

I like how craaig got Pwn and Scrap yet still ended up how he did.
Signups will open next week I hope.
Better than GK since 2009.
