Rotisserie has a flamethrower, by the way.
And a drill, don't forget the drill.

It's a ridiculous, highly-unorthodox setup, I know, but it works. In theory. We'll see.

I just wanted to make it clear since I didn't have the flame turned on for the splash picture.

Post by: Badnik96 on December 01, 2016, 05:35:39 PM: i really didnt expect my five minute entry to be one of the better looking robots here but there you go

outside of wen redace and conraaa i'm not really nervous about any of the matchups here
Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby 2 - SBV
Post by: Gulden on December 01, 2016, 07:32:49 PM: Power station steve: It has high highs and low lows. It'll be an interesting one.
Another brick wall: Might win a match or two. But not champion material.
Mouse: Bacon, mind entering a good bot once in your life?
420: Looks like a pop-up. Watch out, fellas.
Point of impact: Ugly af.
Rotissorie: A potential underdog.
Cudge: Looks like a stock bot, honestly.
Oh! Is a sky: It'll do good against quite a couple bots, however I'm not too sure about going all the way.
Thumperzoid mini: Not a big fan of this one.
The red nozed sawbot: See also, Another brick wall.

Overall, I think a lot of these bots have a good shot at winning, but my vote is for Rotisserie, due to the strength of flamethrowers and F1Krazy's luck.

Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby 2 - SBV
Post by: F1Krazy on December 02, 2016, 01:08:46 AM: Power Station Steve? Ooh, that's gonna be a toughie. He can probably take off my drill pretty quickly, and then that's my KO capability out the window...

I'm kinda flattered that Guldenflame has me down as favourite though xD
Title: Re: Death-Defying Decemberween Demolition Derby 2 - SBV
Post by: Baconus_Yum on December 02, 2016, 04:27:02 AM: Seed #2.
That's amazing.

If against Cudge, if I get the weapon off, I win.
Same deal with Thumperzod.

Man, I thought we were about to see an upset when Cudge got toppled over.
Good match there.

When I was recording that one, I thought something was about to happen as soon as one of Cudge's hammers came off. It wasn't meant to be, but was still a good fight!

420-bot is definitely the standout so far.

Post by: Conraaa on December 10, 2016, 09:18:28 AM: Really not sure about how well i'll do against Power Station Steve.

Also that robot is the first and only Retooled robot i've ever made. I'm surprised it's actually won matches.

Post by: F1Krazy on December 11, 2016, 10:55:50 AM: All I could hear in my head during the second part of that fight was:

"Mouse-bot, it's the Mouse-bot,
It's the coolest bot in historyyyyy
From the town of Something,
It's about to take off Cudge's wheeeeels"

Damn you, Thracker, and your song choices!

Now I got a crazy powerful poker to face against. Hopefully the tactic of "kiss the opponent repeatedly" will work again.

Conglaturations to

me. I honestly thought Power Station Steve wouldn't be able to stand up to Another Brick in the Wall, as in my testing before the tournament, rambots always knocked the drum off. I got lucky, though, that RedAce's bot was so wide it'd hit the wedges and flip up onto the drum instead of just ramming the drum. At least it was a better final match than in Ribcage Rampage.

The randomized bot entrant order was:
Oh!!! is a sky!!!
Rotisserie
Point of Impact
Power Station Steve
Cudge
Thumperized Mini
The Red Nosed Saw Bot
420-bot
Mouse
Another Brick in the Wall

Dang, Power Station Steve just refuses to die.

I'll put up the promised bot files and AI lines later on. Hope you enjoyed the tournament, and see you again next time!
