Pendulum- eh, maz has made better, not awful though
Hypno Hat- clubs look weird, boring grey skin
Articulator 2-lelelel bsgs dont exist irl
The Solution-looks good
The Fear-lol wtf doesn't have a wedge
Der Vorgesetzte-good idea, not a good skin though
Snake Byte-Very MikeNCR like
Irradated Best-not bad
Pestilence-Tuna Can
Domino-not bad, could be cleaner
Overbyte-swag
Savage-i like it
Crimson Wyvern-needs weapon supports
M-waste of a spot

I just finished making a bot to replace Pestilence so does this mean it's too late?

You can use it in the Rumble, instead of Pestilence. Your choice.

Chances in the first match = maybe
I should've submitted the drum version instead. Ah well.

I may have a shot in the first round, but if I face of against Overbyte or Pendulum, I a goner.

Also, Rob Collins, is it too late for me to enter the rumble?

You're automatically in the Rumble, because you're in the main tournament.

Pendulum vs Savage (Do you want to see that?)
Heh, I was just joking around about that in a skype call  :P

Post by: Enigm@ on December 21, 2013, 08:36:06 PM
lmao i completely forgot about maz being retarded for no reason to me, i just figured it'd be an interesting fight (shows how much i pay attention!)

anywho predickshunz::::::

Crasp - cool looking but is gonna get flanked easily

industry3 - savage is going to rape u ty :3333333333333333333333333333333333##33#333

pendulum - ugly as sin and just as unoriginal, will most likely go far because of being a powerful design by nature

hypno hat -  :SFTW

articultor 2 - looks like it can sustain a hit which it'll need to do with all these spinney weapons

the solution - i'm gonna go out onna limb and say that it takes a few tries to self right, making it spinner fodder imo

the fear - ^ refer to comment above

der vorgestize - won't do diddily dick once it gets flipper or those hammers break off

snake byte - it's gonna go fast

irradated beast - obv is copying off of dantomkia's paper of how to make a bot, dunno if it'll be able to pass the class in this toruney tho

pestinlence - kinna lazy and unoriginal design, gonna get knocked out in the first round i'd imagine

domino - it looks like mauler and it'll prolly dance like mauler if it gets touched

overbyte - prolly gonna win the tourney

savage - worst bot in the tourament

crimson wyvern - while i like the look and obv effort if it gets flanked its done

m - uninspired designs deliver haphazard results

Crasp Evo Jr.- High RPM spinning disc could do well

Industry 3- Good again, with 4WD it should do some damage coupled with the high rpm saw

Pendulum- OP weapon should do a lot of damage

Hypno Hat- Cheap flails, will cause damage then shed the weapons and go out of control

Articulator 2- Not my favourite of the Articulator/Diced series. Not a bad bot however.

The Solution- It's kinda weird. The exposed flippermakers will get torn off.

The Fear- Can it even get under anything?

Der Vorgesetzte- Really messy & odd looking. Looks fragile, might cause some damage.

Snake Byte- Flail rammer & bad skin = laame

Irradated Beast- Pretty good for a newcomer. Might make it past first round.

Pestilence- QUIT CALLING IT TUNA CAN!!! It's going to get undercutted right away.

Domino- Okay. Wheels poking out the side looks sloppy. High ground clearance will get it.

Overbyte- High potency undercutting bars will do plenty of damage, sure to go far

Savage- Kinda cool, but again high ground clearance

Crimson Wyvern- Cool shape, but exposed

M- Good by playzooki's standards... pretty bad by the rest of our standards. If it had a cooler skin it wouldn't be nearly as bad.

To answer everyone's questions or assumptions:

No. It's not a flipper. It is invertable, but not a flipper. Yes, it can get under stuff. Sometimes.

It's just meant for a bit of fun, and to put on a show. Some people don't get that *cough AS cough*

Think I'll do alright in the first round.

Domino- Okay. Wheels poking out the side looks sloppy. High ground clearance will get it.
Shut up, Helloface. Besides the wheels barely touch the ground.

Thank you to everyone that joined, and those that watched!


Arrogant yet Useless Note:

This is the second tournament in a row, where I've posted all Rounds in less than 24 hours after the SBV went up.

The only problem with that is that it will NEVER spur innovation or get people to try something knew, when they can simply follow a simple formula to make a successful bot without having to try anything new, leading to monotony and lack of creativity. And that doesn't apply to just ra2 that goes to pretty much every artistic or competitive facet of life.

Come on man, I've been making neat stuff in every tournament I've entered before this one, and constantly fall short in the first round. It's not exactly like I go out to win everything.

And that doesn't apply to just ra2 that goes to pretty much every artistic or competitive facet of life.
And then when almost everyone is building the same thing, they will realise it isn't winning anymore and go back to unique designs.
