Either way, one of us is going to commit suicide at some point.

I reckon, this may sound crazy, but I reckon I might be in with a shout of beating Crocodile. If I can get him side-on and take off his wheel discs, then have a go at his chassis.

Or the wedge will spring back and make your bot do a very spectacular frontflip OOTA. :P
Erm..Yeah  :laughing
Still, fatal tragedy's rather slow so i'm alright there.

But yeah, I agree NFX, one of us is definately gonna be airbourne here.

I hope you take him out in the first round then, cos you're slightly less infuriating than that monstrousity

To address all fears: ROFLFKC Will go OOTA or get counted out quickly. The lip is substantial enough that bots will have trouble getting on top. And I might be able to do a grudge match between Runtime Error and two Tribute 1.5s. ;)

Also, I have a basketball game in an hour so do not expect brackets tonight.

Poorly made brackets are up. Will probably make better ones when I get time.

You have a bye which means you face the winner of GRW and DSC. And if you win, then you MIGHT face Tiamat.

If it makes you feel any better, you might be fighting either me or click, instead of Yoda....  Assuming you win the first match of course.

Am I the only person here that has confidence in his bot?

Is taking one challenge request. First come first serve. I'm a bit rusty now but I'm going to try and crank something out for this. MW and up no glitches DSL or Stock.

Both entries must be killed to lose.


WAT

I was assuming it would be 50% of the weight.  If I'd known that, I would have invested a lot more weight in Seek rather than Hide.


And I've got 123 first round... that will be a tough battle.  Especially since I'll have to KO both of them.  And then if I lose, I might get Redstone Compass which somewhat worries me.  Not quite so confident now...


Oh well, Hide and Seek should still put on a good show.  As I suspected, no one yet seems to know what the strategy is.  ;)


Also, Badnik and Scrap is going to be an epic battle.  Two of the few full 5000-kg bots, and Crocodile is actually tall enough for MTD to bring all its weapons to bear, and slow enough to allow it to spin up.  Dare I say there could be an upset in the making?


Also also, Nidhogg and Tiamat should fight at some point in the ultimate battle of mythological dragons.

So, a Bye...
Oh, great. It's Scrap or Badnik in round 2 D:
BTW, who has the slowest bot here? (Not including crawlers)
I have 6wd NPCF + Tornados
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Head is pounding way too hard right now to comment on every bot one by one, but awesome designs all the way around.  Even the weaker ones look cool.  More multibots than I had hoped, but oh well.
 
For those wondering, Tiamat was a 'top down' design.  Got it in my head that I wanted to build a five headed dragon and went from there.
 
Also also, Nidhogg and Tiamat should fight at some point in the ultimate battle of mythological dragons.

Agreed.  How about if we don't face each other, we have a challenge, Nar?
