I would like to say that I will accept bots like this, restriction free:

NOTE: Its a Full body spinner, NOT a SnS.

are popups the ones with the razors coming up from in the bot and retracting back in??? I would like to join this to. I'm still confuded what DSA is??? If someone can answer these questions thx

For your first question: Yes

For your second question: DSA stands for double-strength aluminum. You get it by ignoring the armor menu in the botlab. It's very effective in stock, but sucks in DSL.

I don't think I'm gonna make a popup it seems to hard to make a decent one;) I'll make one for RR's tourney. Another question is an example of a Full body spinner: Grog the Vengeful also sense it says they get a aditional 200kigs, is the final weight of them 1000 sense a normal HW is 800???

Heh, I'll have a go at this.

BTW Viper, Grog isn't a Full Body Spinner, it's a shell spinner.
An FBS has the chassis rotating rather than an external shell

R1885 · « **Reply #66 on:** July 04, 2009, 05:57:17 PM »

Nope, Grog is a shell spinner, not a full body spinner.

This is a better example of a FBS. The outer bot spins, but the servos remain in place. Thurs, the bot can move as its spinning. The disadvantage is that it slow, you can't use normal drive motors with wheels for the navbot, only servos or saw blade wheels. I gave 200 extra killos to work with because they don't do well, both in game and life. Y-pout's record, 0-2, Y-not's, 1-2.

U weren't lying there garbage, The one u pm is very slow is that example the fastest FBS can go or can they be made faster??? I might go back to popup's ;D.Ya I'm defiantly doing a POPUP I coulden't find the JX but now I know where it is so going to start building :D

I had a robot based off Y-Pout for hydros tournament, I will most likely send that one after a bit of work

R1885 · « **Reply #70 on:** August 04, 2009, 02:27:46 PM »

Some more updates:
Brackets are going to be Round Robin(You fight every other bot in the tournament, the bot with the most wins wins.)

I also will allow a side tournament, made for complete fun and has no impact on the main.
ROTOS Ultimate:
Rules:
There is none.
Make it as heavy as you want
Screw Defaults
AAM at your leisure
Custom=Yes

Its a do anything side tourney. There is no restrictions. Make it any way you want. However, entrants will be not be shown, and I will only accept four. First come, first serve.
