Woah, these are some good bots. Predictions:
Antenna: Looks exactly like something 123 would make. I see no downsides, but I would like to hear the reason of use of sawblades.
Narcotic Recollection: I like it though the wedge isn't the best in the tournament and I fear for the vertability.
Carnivoar: Nice Badnik. I like the wheel guards on it. They should be useful with all of the multibots.
Back Stabbing Prince: That's alot of razors, and it has good frontal wheel protection.
Hot-Headed Empoer: The other one was better. This one's armor is too light.
Rapid Fury: I like it. It looks alot like Carnivoar though with out the wheel guards, wedges, and instead of razors, narpoons.
Tryad: Looks nice. It should do pretty well if it doesn't get gut-ripped.
MOAR RAZORS: Nar even you have out done yourself with this one.
Valid Query 3: I love it even more than the first. It seems to have a tighter chassis and more weapons.
Thing 1 and 2: Not bad but I wouldn't use the T connectors and make the chassis smaller.
F.T.L: I... don't know what to say. It is the most elegant robot I have ever laid eyes on. When I saw it, I wanted to throw up happiness on my keyboard.
Quick Man V2: Sorry R1885, but it's not really good. I don't think differnet wheels benefits it. There aren't enough weapons and I don't no what the wedge off the back really does.
Double Flames All the Way: I like the name and the bot. The wedge is great. The only downside is the vertiability. Otherwise, I think it's a contender.
Ramvil God: Looks epic as a multibot. Not sure on the wedges.
Click and SKBT: I'm sad I can't see them, but I'm excited to.

Ah. No, I did not know. Well, this needs to be fixed. It's wasting weight for nothing.

You have no idea how tempting it is to post that song right now
You do that, and I will personally castrate you with a rusty breadknife.

He continues to spam or post nonsense in this thread, I personally delete all of his posts here.

Anyways, no flail shell spinner for you FOTEPX.

You may send skins, very slight updates (aka making the bot more symmetric/less wasted weight/fixing AGOD on a wedge is OK, adding a wedge/weapon is not), and AI's for now.

And predictions !

123: Will probably trash through the competition. Top 3 for sure
Ashman: Average entry overall. Cannot hope to fair well against the better entries. Last tier.
Badnik: I don't like how it's built. But not bad. Probably will fair OK.
DK: Will get raped by the better entries, though can fair OK.
FOTEPX: As long as it doesn't meets a HW wedge (Ashman doesn't count) it will fair good. It it meets one, however...
Triad: Will probably fail as Madman said. Last tier, though better than Ashman and Ribbs.
Myself: Hope I can get in Top3. Depends of the wedge really.
NFX: See FOTEPX, but with even worse (or better, depending of PoV) OOTA's.
Noodle: Even with these being the worst builds of the multibots I think they also are the better fighters of the multibots, due to speed and wedges and razors. Will fail horribly at one point though, I am sure.
Pwn: AWESOME CONCENTRATED. I just hope it wins the tournament rather than 123 :P
Ribbs: :SFTW:. Not even sure it can win a match :P
Trumpetguy: Good bot, will probably fair well. Top 6 IMO.
Ramvil God: Probable best of the multibots (overall). Will get RAPED by a SnS though. Top 6 IMO
Click: It's just a HW Ludicrous Speed with 4 harpoons and 6WD NPC Fast. Click says it's not good though.

Did I add a caster on the bottom? If not, could I add one, skin it and then send it to you?

Triad: Will probably fail as Madman said. Last tier, though better than Ashman and Ribbs.

I'll try to prove you wrong.

I already added a caster as you said you would for your update.

But if you want to skin, feel free.

It's better with the update I sent.  I'm probably not going to the finals, but with a bit of luck I can get a win or two.

I know my bot doesnt look invertable but it is still able to drive upside down, pretty quick, with the hammers acting as a caster like thing so it still does damage.
 
the only time it isnt invertable is if it it perfectly on its back/spine/rear whatever you want to call it.
 
I was unable to test it against most bots as they crashed my game but i did test it on some with relatively good results.

Showcase finished! I now just need to finish AI them, post tables and I will start with the vids.

You can send AI if you didn't already.

Click's bot looks typically awesome. =D SKBT's also looks quite potent, in my view.

Did I send you bindings for Valid Query 3? I can't remember if I did.

Uh-oh.  This only rarely happens on my computer.  Why do I have a feeling the wedges are going to magically start flying up in the tournament?

Well, unsure if it does the same thing as AI, but when i tested it in the botlab it does that most of the time.
