I'd hoped I'd do better than 6th. Oh well. Hopefully I can be consistent enough to get a spot in the final four.
Also, excellent hit scored by the second XOR. =D
Time-Out - On Fire Rumble:

(after 20+ attempts in different arena's and positions, I just let FireFly havok about the arena)
Beat the Box has been uploaded and results posted. Now time to explain a couple of things about the round that happened.
1. The bots that back up a lot use the same binding as most the other rammers, it seems to be a battery issue.
2. Immobilisation of the box is forced by the robots that won that way, the house robot is slow and those robots capitalised on that weakness and it's the same robot for everyone so please don't complain about that issue.
WHY DID I BULID THAT THING!
WHY DID I BULID THAT THING!
I made one exactly the same and it's in the challenge preview pics lol, my latest one has irons swing around in the middle part of the chassis instead of on top though.
I also renamed the "On Fire Rumble" to "Fire Fight", simpler and the name is more catchy IMO.
Woo!
lol@Woodpecker, Mercury Drone, Dipper, and FireFly. Really, now I'm just happy that #1 didn't win by way of silly immobilization.
Still miffed I couldn't get my entry in on time. Curse you, short-notice homework.

The Gauntlet round is on it's way and is a whole 40 minutes long! and...
Contains plenty of interesting results!
did alot better than i thought i was going to do, still only 1 more challenge to go and 1st, hopefully ill maintain enough points to start out later in the robozone rumble
Ugh... I need to get one win so I can get to top 4...
Agh, slipped to fifth. Don't reckon I'm going to do too well in Survival. I haven't got the faintest idea how RPJK managed to survive to the end, though.
This round was meant to test every aspect of your bot with all the following tested:
*Battery life.
*Offence.
*Defence.
*Speed.
A lot of the round had luck involved, some got bad luck when the house bots worked together really well and other entries got good luck when the house bots got in each others way.

I should also note that every bot from FireFly up still has a chance to make the Final, so 12 bots still have a chance going into the last round :)

anty c really kinda crashed and burned there...... rammer versus vs..... hopefully i can get at vb's extenders so i start the final last. but either way, im still in the final to begin with, which makes me happy as this is the farthest ive ever gotten in a tourney :smile:

Awww, I didn't get last place
i survived o_o
not bad for a rush job with a stolen chassis hahahahahaha
8th place, Urgh... Well atleast I wasn't in the "losers" side.
lol, 6th and my bot hardly showed up 50% of the time.
Last place in survival shocked me, honestly thought it would do better.
If you guys want I can record and upload the SFTW Smash-up and the final tonight, what do you think? I'd love to wrap things up and hand out the awards so I can get to work on other things like the ultimate stock AW AI pack.
5th place. Slightly disappointed that I didn't make the final, but I'm pleased with how I did. Hopefully I can improve next time. Good luck to everyone in the final.
2nd place isnt half bad, wish that last razor had held out though :V
well i lucked out there haha
pretty enjoyable tourney ian.
090901's bot was actually such a boss in Survival. It was too bad the challenge was based on how many points Ascension got rather than the challenger, though. For example, a plain chassis that survived to the end would place higher than a two-razor rammer that survived because Ascension would get more points versus the rammer.
I thought I was doing pretty well (even when I got kinda ticked off that my bot destroyed itself in the first challenge), but then Gauntlet just screwed me over. The KO that Skewer got there didn't even matter! D:
Anyway a big congrats to VB for winning, even without coming out on top in the tiebreaker!
