3 staff members have stated that they are monitoring this thread. Let's not be stupid.

Anyone wanna fight Jungle Fever? I feel like it didn't get much of a chance to show off its stuff.

i'd be down

[kix]

If this is still on.. anyone wanna fight my bot?

[Gulden]

Yeah this is still on.
In fact, the rumble is finally here.

Recording these rumbles brought out the worst of me, but during the recording process, I found out why Paladin is so strong.
It just so happens to be the same reason this took so long to record.

Badger (Whether intentional or not) took advantage of the rule which a havok explosion would never decide the match and caused me to restart over and over until badger would one-shot someone.  Which is why I have the guts to host this.


(Pls note this is in no way meant to be an insult to badger...  it's just you're bot is so OP in the wrong way that it steals the fun away.  Love ya, and thanks for joining)

I'll start recording the grudge matches at the end of the week.

Second in both rumbles, schweet. My best-ever results. Glad Jungle Fever finally got a chance to show off just how deadly it can be.

[NeonCalypso]

That havok with AQL is like getting hit by a shooting star Also Jungle Fever's final hit on Solaris is like how a star dies.

Without Badger, Me and Avalanche were basically destroying everyone...

Until my robot decided it didn't want to fight anymore.

4th and 1st is pretty good.

You've already seen Fighter Mk. II fight Paladin twice. A wedgeless HS vs Paladin has gone down the exact same way 4 times now (2 times on Executioner, 2 on Fighter Mk. II.), so how about something different? I've made a flipper myself (admittedly rushed due to needing to get it out there then post this then do revision), and if Gulden is willing to AI another robot i'll gladly fight you with that. But a Paladin vs Fighter Mk. II fight is not what I want because we've already seen it and it merely adds for what is borderline flaming, and hence I request both you and Gulden not to do it.

Oh, and the name comes from my old (and terrible) robot called Fighter, and I decided to make a new version in HW style, built after I've spent time improving my IRL craft. The Mk. 2 moniker should be fairly obvious, as this is the second version (Mark stands for Version or Model, so for short, Mk.) of Fighter. The name Fighter matches with the original counterpart, Brawler, which was even worse, so that needs to be updated as well.

Ye I'm not gonna endorse a fight vs a bot a you made specifically to counter my bot. I mean, I'd probably win anyway, but it's the principle. You should've entered that flipper in the first place.


Hows about Paladin vs Solaris?

So you'll gladly fight my robot 3 times, each time being a foregone conclusion (powerful flipper vs HS with no good srimech or wedge), but as soon as I bring up the idea of not fighting something that isn't totally outclassed you refuse it immediately. C'mon man.

At least I can use it for my challenge with TheRoboteer.

Yes, that is how tournaments work.  You enter one robot and don't get to change it out based on what other people entered.

[Philippa]

That has to be your weakest argument ever.

Missed the point. I challenged him to fight a robot that would give a challenge instead of repeatedly fighting a robot he totally countered and acting like he was king of GTM for doing so, and he immediately refused it. So calling him out on fighting the same bot again and again because he countered it is unfair, and then fighting it with the bot that I would have used, which has now been showcased, that would not have countered his, but would give it a half decent fight.

That has to be your weakest argument ever.

Let's put this in different terms, if you had seen Grindr lose to CS twice after being pinned on the wall and flail raped into submission, both in the main tournament and in the team rumble, and then Jamie said in a snarky fashion that he would fight Grindr again, despite it being a forgone conclusion, and then you had offered to fight it with a robot that was slightly more tryhard or powerful to match the flail rammer, and he had outright refused it, that would be fine?

One more goddamn post about this fight and we're going to start handing out reprimand. We've been letting this coast because it has looked like it might have calmed down multiple times, but someone has to keep bringing it back up.

All posts in this thread from this point forward are to be about any remaining matches to be posted.

looks like dad is gonna be getting the banhammer out

[090901]

Time to bring back havok DQ rules then? 

[Gulden]

Time to bring back havok DQ rules then? 

I'll do so during the grudge matches. Unless mod says no.
Definitely during future tournaments, though.

Actually, no. I posted about your refusal to fight a more fair fight for once, and not the Paladin match. And I personally checked in with him on the first post that I said to ensure it wouldn't be flaming, and hence the second post should also be fine, if edging towards flaming.

Out of interest, did Paladin havok much outside of the rumble or no?

Crocodile smile vs paladin was the only fight I managed to record in one try when it came to paladin.
