I'll enter. And that's fine with the hat thing.

[Thyrus]

What if someone gets a flipper to build and he makes it a Flipper/HS Hybrid?

[FOTEPX]

Hmm...

Good question. Yeah, I'll include hybrids on the list as well.

[Scorpion]

I don't mind flippers as much (as long as you make it an OOTAable arena.
If I get a popup though, I'm calling bull 

[Naryar]

Uh, what ? We cannot choose what we build ?

[FOTEPX]

Nope, You'll have to wait until I say what you build.

List of bot types you might receive:
Face Spinner
Wammer
Vertical Spinner
Sawbot
Rammer
Poker
Horizontal Spinner
Hammer
Flipper
Clamp
Walker (Double weight limit allowed)
Drum
Multibot
Angled VS
Any 2-bot type Hybrid
Any 3-bot type Hybrid

Do ya not approve?
I think it's an interesting idea, it'll stretch some people to build bots they may not usually build (I've made popups in the past, so don't use that as an excuse to give me one :P)

One thing though FOTEPX, try to put in the better bot types, otherwise you're liable to get people whining that they had to make a hammer for example.

Edit: Damn, you had to post that list then didn't you ;P
Anyway, major glaring thing, crawlers shouldn't be allowed 2x the weight, you're just gonna get a HW bumblebee against loads of MW which is hardly fair.

*is confuzzled* what's wrong with hammers?

[Naryar]

Flippers in the combat arena ? LOL

Oh, and crawlers allowed with 200% weight allowance is going to end in blood. 90% of people are going to rant if their bot goes against a HW crawler in the combat arena.

edit: damn scorpion beat me to it

[FOTEPX]

Listen, If you get a bot type you can't build, tough. You'll just have to live with it and try your best, and whining and complaining WILL result in disqualification.

@Naryar I'm planning to use the Ring Arena, and I'm removing crawlers and replacing it with walkers.

They're not very good IMO.
Although I may be biased as the only hammer bot I;ve made sucks a lot 

Nobody's made a proper working walker, just have a normal MW crawler only option.

[FOTEPX]

Rules Updated.

[Enigm@]

On the multibot thing, can the multibot's weapon be anything?

[Naryar]

I bet the clamp is going to fail embarrassingly, and the walker probably is going to get immobilized.

[FOTEPX]

On the multibot thing, can the multibot's weapon be anything?

Again, I'll decide what weapon the Multibot will have. I'll probably choose Flipper or HS.

[Enigm@]

Why no SnS's?

[FOTEPX]

Why no SnS's?

Overated, no original designs, get cheap wins, can you see what I mean?

[SteveM4]

CUBE CHASSIS, that is what FOTEPX is trying to get rid of.

[JoeBlo]

Overated, no original designs, get cheap wins, can you see what I mean?

AHAHAHAHA

you say that but your letting Crawlers use double weight.

[Naryar]

He removed that, now only walkers will use double weight
