You do know who your co-host is, right?

Quit it. You're doing a lot of unwarranted flaming recently.
Come on, it's only banter. I wouldn't call it flaming.



So does that mean Fatal Traction is in or not?
Fatal Traction is an awesome replica, that's for sure, but it suffers from gyroscopic tendencies, thus failing stability tests.
So sadly, no, it hasn't qualified. :embarr
But, I'll give you some options:
1: I'll provide your Fatal Traction replica with a less powerful, more stable motor so it can qualify.
2: Help you out with making Goathammer a more formidable and accurate replica.

1: But then it's not what I sent you. Can't you just reduce the turnspeed?
2: It was a joke entry, it is meant to be like that.

That probably wouldn't work, but I'll try.
Also, when I said a different motor, I meant a custom perm that's the same as the one it already has, just slower.

Yes, let people enter joke bots. considering there's probably not even gonna be that many entries anyway why quality control which is basically reducing your entries.
Plus, without jokebots you wouldn't get gems such as "william jones"  :dumb)

*Sigh*
Fine, I'll let Goathammer enter, since Fatal Traction still refuses to be stable.

Keep trying, though.

I don't know what else there is to do.
I've tried wiring the weapon to the drive to reduce the chances of gyroscopic tendencies, and failed.
I've tried wiring the drive up like car steering, and failed.
I've tried to make it turn as slowly as possible, and it failed.

Try wiring the weapon motor to a switch instead of a button, that might help.

I'm sorry Kurt, but your Fatal Traction Replica is just too unstabe, plus I don't know how to make components invisible. :embarr

How has Fatal Traction failed though? This may start World War 3, but try wiring the weapon to the Forward, Backward, Left and Right control with the disc spinning the same way for all directions (on clockwise for everything) and if that doesn't work... I don't know what else will work.

Let me see it. I'll try and fix it if I can.

Hey, Tommy. I checked it out, and it seems the weapon is the problem. When I took it out, it ran fine, but with the weapon, probably because of its position, it starts to fly off. I don't know what else we could do to fix it except find a slower motor, or a motor that's supposed to be at that position.
(Maybe, the weapon could be a problem because of either the multi-extenders, or how it's uneven.)

Received Kurt's new entries. Both Mad cow and The Scrapper are accepted. Now he just has to choose which bot he wants to see compete.

It might be for the best if you let people enter multiple times, because at the moment it looks like you're not going to get many more entries.
