UK vs USA (Original Closed Thread)
« on: March 09, 2010, 09:23:47 AM »
Here they are!


Here is the splash


Brackets

And about time too, if you ask me. People, make your predictions!


After the two heats, there will be a final between the two best bots.


Heat 1 - Round 1:







The award to the winner will be the entire pack, bots, components etc.

Teammate? It's all against all... And Sonny's bot isn't Crasha Nasha, either... It's Snookums, an American bot.

First round is now going to be one on one, because DSL crashes if it's four-way.


ONE-ON-ONE, PEOPLE!

I've got GBH, something with a massive flipping arm.


You've got Terrorhurtz, a robot with a puny little axe.


You win. I win. Everyone wins.


Oh, and remember, there is a loser's melee.  :bigsmile:

 predictions...

The Alien - I've had the pleasure of watching this one in action.  Weapon is quite powerful, but the extenders can break.
Hypnodisc - Definitely in with a chance
V-Max - Stock extenders will probably leave it hurting all over
Steel Reign - One of the more powerful-looking, and will probably win my heat.
Snookums - Who in their right mind would enter something like this?  They should be thrown in the loony bin!
Phere - A well armoured shell spinner, I'm still backing JD to win my heat, but this one's a close second.
Nightstalker - Another well armoured shell spinner, will probably win its heat.
Spitfire - Up against it as it has no destructive weaponry, doesn't look like it can OOTA.
Dark Striker - Unfortunate to be in with Phere and Steel Reign, as it could have done well in another heat.
Aces and Eights - My replica of it was pretty fragile, this one may struggle too.
THz - Got a very lucky draw, should win its heat easily
Infernal Contraption - It looks like it threw up steel plates, but I do like the sextuple-stacked discs, it will probably win its heat.
Matador - Its flipper looks fragile; might get destroyed.
GBH 2 - It's a flipper in a heat with Terrorhurtz; won't survive.

Oh, and how do you increase the time Fraps records for? I want to get the first fight out of the way... But it only records for about 30 seconds, then it stops...

Didn't pay for it, downloaded the free version. Isn't there a hack or something?

its called software Piracy which will land you in loads of trouble should you ever be caught :P

you could always do what MV and I did for RODE....

do you have a pause key on the keyboard? when the time limit is nearly up for your 30 seconds, freeze the game with the pause key and then hit record again and un-pause then just put all the vids together in movie maker

I know my bot can beat G.K.'s old version of Hypnodisc one-on-one. BTW anyone who saw my RWW matches will notice my rubbish drive motors, this has changed.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything
