Okay, that was quite surprising. I guess Nar's flippers were more durable than I thought. Still did a lot of damage, although that Gyro dancing was a complete pain in the ass
 
Am I right in thinking I get a bye in the next round?

nope :P

The losers bracket format wont follow what the brackets say (I just downloaded those brackets and make them pretty)

Because otherwise there will be a pile of rematches in the bracket which I would like to avoid..

It was especially done for flippers to be effective, and no Backlash arena was ever tough for flippers.

Your fault for not entering one ! We all said "OMG DAT ARENA LET'S ALL SPAM THE BRACKET WITH FLIPPERS" and now, maybe one tenth of the bracket is flippers.

Can you just stop making these pointless posts in response to Hard Bot, here it was a kinda valid post.

It can be as much about the draw than the actual robot's effectiveness. Think about Bounty Hunter in BBEANS .

We all know I did well in BBEANS because my bot had the best skin.


BOT: I hope I can win at least one... otherwise I'm blaming whoever told me to build a LW cubezorz.

*throws brick through window*

ahem.. also to get back on topic.. its only round 1 so its possible for up to 30 people to be 0-3 (its not going to happen now but it could)

So really the ranks mean nothing until you start eliminating robots..

I seriously hope I do better in the Loser's Bracket. If it is all randomised, then I shouldn't get an opponent that I'd do terribly against, I don't think.

Schweet. So technically, we're about halfway there. In finding the WB Champ anyway. =]

SB vs Scorps is finally up

Thus bringing a close to round 1..

I have some things set up now / discovered to push out videos really fast also now nearly all the splashes are made from round 1 that will cut down on time too..

Amazing amount of work man! Thanks for churning out the videos.  I haven't watched them (just woke up... about to go to work).  Looking forward to checking them out this eve.
