Round 1 Predictions:

Naryar VS Oggie- This one should be a pretty good fight. Both bots are pretty well built. All it will come down to is whos got the better wedge and I think Naryar does.
Winner: Naryar

S32 VS SSG- Another pretty equally matched fight. I think S32 will win though due to the wedge.
Winner: S32

R0B0SH4RK VS Craaaig- Hehe, this one probably won't last long but Craaig might get to Parasite's side.
Winner: RS

Whammet VS MikeNCR- Lucky draw for Mike. Wedgeless FS probably aren't going to do so great but hes got the better built bot here.
Winner: MikeNCR

Me VS ManManu- I'm actually shocked at how decent MM's bot actually is. I think I have the better wedge though.
Winner:Scrap Daddy

4057 VS Somebody- Both bots are pretty much the same but I think Extended Warranty should be able to get under Murken
Winner: Somebody

Sage VS JoeBlo- JoeBlo has a decent bot but Sage's is much better
Winner: Sage

RIBBS VS Jack Daniels- This one will be just like Naryar's and Oggie's fight. It will come down to who has the better wedge.
Winner: RIBBS

I agree SD I think your wedge is better but you never know, should be a good fight anyways.

Manu if your bot was invertible or had a working srimech I would be even more impressed on the quality of your bot...

Naryar VS Oggie- Oggie's got decent defenses... and a much smaller chassis. I give his bot the edge in this match.
Winner: Oggie

S32 VS SSG- Wedges against extra weapons.  I think the wedge will be the decisive factor.
Winner: S32

R0B0SH4RK VS Craaaig- I'm sorry robo... as awesome as i think your bot is... I think Craaaig made his just narrow enough to sneak in between your wedges.
Winner: Craaaig

Whammet VS MikeNCR- Irons ftw
Winner: MikeNCR

Me (actually... not me... Scrap Daddy... I totally plagarized his comment because I didn't want to type everything out..) VS ManManu- Remember the scene in Return of the Jedi where Boba Fett crashes and lands right in the mouth of that hungry, ground dwelling, sand creature thing? Yeah... that's this match pretty much.
Winner:Scrap Daddy

4057 VS Somebody- pretty equal bots here... its a toss up. I give the edge to the double wedge.
Winner: Somebody

Sage VS JoeBlo- Call me crazy, but i think the irons are gonna tear off Sage's razors quick.  This is totally a dark horse pick for me, but it is my gut feeling.
Winner: JoeBlo

RIBBS VS Jack Daniels- Ribbs was probably smart and mounted his wedge on a solid mount... mine is mounted to a snapper. I have watched my bot in action and the wedge is far from superior.
Winner: RIBBS

Naryar VS Oggie- Nary may cause some upset... are those weapons bursted?
Winner: Nary

S32 VS SSG- A peice of sh** with a wedge is still a piece of sh**. I know, I built that piece of sh**.
Winner: SSG

R0B0SH4RK VS Craaaig- As long as craaaig doen't do broadside the R0B0's bot may lose.
Winner: Craaaig

Whammet VS MikeNCR- Big chassis, few weapons, possibly powered by redbirds... I hope they are chained.
Winner: MikeNCR

Scrap VS ManManu- fight RPB against the old Predator. You'll get the same results.
Winner:Scrap Daddy

40757 VS Somebody- 2 wedges means 2 chances to fail.
Winner: 407

Sage VS JoeBlo- Poor sage, bad luck.
Winner: JoeBlo

RIBBS VS Jack Daniels- R8 If it is on a solid mount it ain't a good wedge.
Winner: RIBBS

Only thing i am sure of is that Sage will win against JoeBlo and Mike will win against Wham. All the rest is on the wedges... and it's hard to judge wedginess.


Also S32, nothing is bursted in my bot. The drive is attached to the chassis (you guessed it) and the weapon HPZ's are attached to baseplate anchors. SD3 is entirely realistic.

It makes it stabler, and i bet this will enhance my wedginess.

S32, im pretty sure you have the win here, anything with a wedge/wedged chassis goes under mine.

Thanks Jack Daniels and System32 nice to have support in the tournament predictions ... I think I may have a chance if Baby Bull doesn't manage to tear up the bottom of my bot, to keep the discs off the ground I used more iron spikes so at least it will go down fighting :-D

I agree with this completely. I was expecting to get/be predicted to get mangled.
This has given me some hope, if only in vain. Lol.
