Let the fights begin!
Thanks to Madiaba and all those who entered!
-
Nice....
-
A6tR looks nasty. Heck, MOST look nasty.
I'm gonna get beat real bad if I face Sage, Nar, R0B0, or H@z.
-
Well, line ups are on another thread.
Im probably gonna get owned aswell, mines a SNS!
-
Lots of VS.
-
Predictions:
Archy 6: Visibly more stable than the Archy we know, faster too, but it looks it's weapon is too heavy for the motor. I still bet he's going to bounce across the arena.
Chuzzle:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/18849sftwsmall.PNG)
Crashman: Messssy wedge and far discs won't help this, however it's a fast juggler and it's the only bot to have snapper wedges besides mine, so still a good entry.
Destroyer WDB: Totally original. Not bad though.
FMLAF: As i built (well) half of this... it's a nice bot.
Far Cry: Another VS. Not bad again, but classic wedges and average speed won't help this when there's so many mako wedges on there.
FlamesfromUnder: Again a VS ?? And visibly not the best...
Haunt 5.1: Probably the best of the horizontal spinners out there. I can see that getting raped by the first undercutter that it will fight against. Might see the efficiency of that against VS.
HoHoHammers: Very well built poker, although i would have dumped rear armor and it dramatically misses a good wedge.
HnM 3.2: Fast, very powerful and i'm pretty sure i have the best wedge of all the tourney (followed closely by R1885). Even invertible. Main issue: exposed wheels if a VS begins to bounce all across the arena, or a bot manages to flank me.
Ice Blast:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/18849sftwsmall.PNG)
Immortal Corruptor: VS, VS everywhere... wait, it's Jules, and we all know about Jule's vertical spinners. I wonder if it's better than Mako 4 ?
MD8: How original. Wedge is kinda poor compared to some of the others, however it is well built. We'll see about the combat efficiency.
obZen: Visibly much better than the RAW one. Rumors of the small wedges being awesome are to be tested against Mako wedges and snapper wedges, however...
panther: Only shell spinner in the competition. And a really average one IMO...
poison of Maatet: AND FINALLY WE'RE FINISHED WITH VERTICAL SPINNERS. This one is original, though. Not much defense though, not much weapon HP's and i have no faith in that wedge... We'll see.
Purple Pest: Only sawbot in the competition. I have it, and i can tell it's a good one... Has the potential to go far.
Thunder God: The by far coolest bot in the competition is by far not the better (not the worst, still). It's decently built, but axes on HS placed that way fail, and no wedge, probably going to get destroyed by the first undercutter it's going to met (heck, even a VS could beat it).
-
I laughed when you used the SFTW pic, Naryar.
Looks like an interesting lineup. Could be more variety though.
-
Yeah, i was expecting a little less VS.
Ahh well, maybe a good SFTW (or 2) is what this toruny needs to lighten things up.
-
I wonder what the line up would look like if I had never built Mako.
I think it would be mostly pop-ups, not sure though.
-
@Redline: I'm going to use it more, and yeah it could have a little more variety.
a good SFTW
uuhh... aren't "good" and "SFTW" in total contradiction ?
-
You know what i mean, like a 'good old' not good, blah blah blah
-
I know that mine is a Mako Clone... And I don't really care since it still works pretty well.
But most of these do look pretty good, and I hope that I'll do better in here than I have in the other ones.
-
I wonder what the line up would look like if I had never built Mako.
I think it would be mostly pop-ups, n.ot sure though.
Jules, Mako was/is innovative and effective. And you put some work into it because of the inherent 'gyro-effect' issue, which makes it tuff to control (as Sombody found out with 'Smackinator'). I think that was a deterrent before Mako. In this case imitation is a form of flattery.

Yeah Jules, just think when someone copies you, they actually love you.
-
":):)"
-
My opinion :
Best paint job for Wham, TClee 's one looks good too.
Best constancy in bot Building For Reier who had explored almost all of the way to attach big hammer to piston.
Best "grandfather of all bots" for Jules : so many sons of Mako
Best WTF : Supernova
Best Uncommon weapon : Urjak
Best Horizontal Spinner (:):)) : Somebody showcased its bot, it is terrific !
Best inoffensive : Mine ! i knew it, but also most original AI .
Best shy bots : Naryar and Robosh4rk : they do :):):) want to show their weapons on the picture ... so cute ! so lovely !
Most adapted name for the picture : i like immortal corrupter , also like faceme like a fool
-

Just wait till you face one of them Phil. You'll see if they're that "cute"...

"We miss a good ol' KKK lynching. I'll tell you what boy, You go get...."
Does this help?
-
Wooohoo! Vertical spinner = :):) matter what happens, I failed.
Fun first tourney though. Hanging around for all these months should be worth it. Thunder god is epic :D!
-
YouhavetofacemeandSys.
R.P.B and N.W.B? Prepare to get RAPED.
-
Neglected Waterbug usually beats Rabid PitBull.
-
I have many reasons to claim that snapper wedges are better than axle ones.
-
Actually, I was thinking of putting a :):) in an :):):):):) with RPB and NWB in a team match. Evil!
Oh, 3 2 1... blast off does the same with RPB, but Maelstrom(SCv4) beats NWB.
-
So, does anyone have any predictions?

When can we expect vids?
-
PODA
Can go any way, but my moneys on H@z.
PODB
obZen. Small wedges own.
PODC
Snapper wedges kill anything else. HnM is the clear winner
PODD
Most likely the hardest to chose a winner. One with durable weapons, one with a proven weapon, and the last with a superior wedge. Any things possible.
PODE
Haunt's a scary bot, but Jules makes some of the best DSL bots. Jules will most likely win.
PODF
Simply put, Far Cry has the upper hand, iceblast's weapon most likely takes forever to get up to speed, and HoHohammers has no wedge. Kill will certainly win.
-
I predict Urjak will win the tournament.
-
The one I entered has gotten under Smashbox, so I think I can get under HnM too but it will probably beat me.
-
PodA: SA probably didn't hide a snapper/metal hinge/axle wedge on the lower wedge... Urjak and Haz have both axle wedges. They're both fast, but Archy has a MUCH slower spinup time than Purple Pest and is probably less stable (because of huge ass weapon and taller). I pick winner = Urjak
PodB: PoM hasn't the weapons/the wedge to stand up to both of Panther and obZen, and i can see obZen having issues getting under panther, and losing it's weapons. I pick winner = courthousedoc (although R0B0 might do this too)
PodC: Wham's slow SnS will get eaten alive by the two other powerhouses of the pod. HnM usually beats Mako, so think i have my chances. I pick winner = myself (AND because i'm the best builder of the three obviously. Bow before me)
PodD: With three fast bots and two gut-rippers, the fate of this match relies on the wedge. And in the wedge department, Crashman > FMLAF > MD8. I pick winner = R1885.
PodE: Tlee's bot doesn't even counts. The other... well it's a HS against a VS, and HS usually own VS, BUT it's Somebody against Jules and we know Jules IS better.
I still pick winner = Somebody just because i can see Corruptor failing at pinning Haunt and losing a hammer.
PodF: Ice Blast doesn't counts. And i can see Sage's really low poker NOT being lifted by Kill's really high VS, and Kill losing a hammer. Plus Sage's is faster. Might be another MDIII VS Far Cry. I pick winner = Sage.
-
No, i will not bow, even if i get beaten!
The first 3 pod vids will be up next week, or hopefully all of the pods by sunday next week! (I hope atleast something like that)
-
What is the Arena like?
-
Pod A: VS VS VS VS VS. Heh. Purple Pest might lose, having a single weapon, but may get the upper-hand with his better spin-up time. If Flames from Under and Archy VI: The Resurrection go after each other Flames from under might win. This is rather tight...
Pod B: I have doubts about Naryar's statement. That Turret VS from Philletbabe could cause problems for obZen if he drives like a bitch. But ObZen is a powerful popup...
Pod C: I'm thinking that Chuzzle is more than meets the eye. I hope I'm wrong. Destroyer can cause major damage to HnM if Naryar's bot does the thing that they are famous for...
Pod D: I'm beginning to think I won't win a single round here. My FS vs an Armoured poker, then a Juggler? I know I'm screwed. R8115 for the win.
Pod E: Immortal Corrupter will win here. End of. (Haunt will win too, but will still lose.)
Pod F: I see HoHoHammers as a dark Horse. Ice Blast won't get out alive......
-
Yeah, I'm wondering if Chuzzle has anything hidden on it. But I think that it will lose because Naryar has a good bot, and it will be pretty easy for mine to get under it and throw it around.
The only big flaw mine has is weak armor [I think it is 1 mm Titanium], but other than that it works pretty well. I just think that I should remake it with heavier hammers sometime.
[EDIT]
I just tested the one I entered against Mako and Smashbox, and it is capable of getting under and beating both of them. But I feel like the Wedges were too far apart.
I also just built a new version of it, and has a smaller body, heavier hammers, and better wedges that almost always got under Smashbox when I tested it. I wish I would of entered the new one, but I guess I'll save that one for the next DSL HW tournament.
-
HoHoHammers = suck because of non invertible

HoHoHammers = suck because of non invertible
Why are you still bitching on that ? Hell, you could have made it invertible very easily!

Working on vids as we speak, im at Pod C at the mo, woo!
All im saying so far about the tourny is i'll be back next series with a better bot...
I hope to have Pod C done soon, then uploaded A-C on YouTube, so let the fights begin!
Not very suprising on winners for Quaters so far, altough there is 1 very suprising winner of a pod...
Plus, here is the format for the tourny:
Pods(18)-1st Place Quaters(12)-Semi-(6)------------Final(4)
Pods(18)-2nd Place Quaters(12)-^-Semi Losers Pod(3)-^
The numbers in the brackets are how many robots are in each round (18 for pods, 12 for quaters, 6 for Semis, 3 for Losers Pod and 4 for the final)
Yes folks, things are going to get quite bumpy.
Plus, if in a pod all 3 robots win a fight each (so a tie) the 1st place and 2nd place winners will be decided by who got the most points in thier winning fights (but if a bot gets 2 wins and another gets 1 then thats that, if you know what i mean)

What a suspense !
and since i go on vacation i will have to wait a week ... but in the final analysis, I prefer the sun of Italy

FIRST FIGHT VID IS UP!
Check the first Page for vids!

Spoilers:
Pod A: Shadowarts showed quite a nice enterance into The World of RA2 tournaments, already beating one of the favorites. Nice.
Pod C: Naryar was obviusly going to win. Congratz.
Is there still going to ba a tag team tournament?
-
Wait..... so in Pod A, everyone lost one and won one.
-
Funny house Robot, (strange havoc) servo, custom parts, nice design, may you present it to us in a splash ?
-
Too easy... what's next ?
Also i feel sorry for Urjak and I WANT TO KNOW what's FlameFromUnder's lower wedge.
EDIT: and i lol'd at the house robot havoking.
EDIT2: Wham, you said in the vid description that "only 2 can pass", but there's just one winner ??
-
Yeah, he had a NICE wedge.... good job Haz and Shadow.
-
2nd Place winners will be anounced after the pods.
For anything to do with the house bot i'll leave to Mad, as he created the House Bot.
Yes, the team tourny will still happen.
-
PodB: R0B0's not the BBEANS4 runner up for nothing.
Phil, that was one heck of a lucky win.
-
Philetbabe's turret bot didn't seem to be moving in the first match against obZen.
-
Philetbabe's turret bot didn't seem to be moving in the first match against obZen.
the AI was one of my firsts servo one, (this tournament starts a long long time ago) and it wotks with custom Zone so it is not as effective as the last AI likes the ones of Madiaba or the one i called LazeGuidedV2. it was effective at near range.
Moreover, it has locomotion trouble : the wheels were so high (to have a good wedge) that the smallest grip problem immobilizes it : yes i had a lucky win, but it does not count at all.
Anyway, i had a good time building my bot, i'll have a good one following this thread.
That's the way to learn things.
-
I didn't deserve that win against Dragonfly. I was saved by a havok explosion.
-
That Havoking Housebot was pretty entertaining. And I thought that mine was going to fly into the pit when it started flopping around in the first match.
But good job Naryar. And I actually did not notice the weapon until this fight, I though that it was just a flipper.
-
Why are you still bitching on that ? Hell, you could have made it invertible very easily!
Maybe i didnt want to. maybe i like top protection.
or maybe i like hypno wheels.
-
I won a fight. I'm happy. Nice work Urjak, Purple Pest had me worried when it got under Archy so easily.
I must say I'm curious about ShadowArts' wedge too, I was shocked at how easily he beat me.
EDIT: BTW wasn't S32 the Pod D winner?
-
Nothing very special is under FFU.
I was aiming to get the mini-wedge (under the floor... dumb thing to say). (bla-bla-bla-bla :P) for a lot of the video.
Good job Urjak - ya' got me down that hole. Archy has an awesome look, especially with the drum going on.
-
where is pod e and f??
-
Im uploading them today.
-
Reier should have won Pod D. He CLEARLY put on the best fight of the pod.
Seriously, S32 won because of a havok and Crashman is the most combat-worthless juggler i've seen in a long time.
And i will even say that FfU is an illegal bot because that wedge-under-the-floor thing is taking advantage of a glitch and against the realistic rule.
-
I hope to have the other 2 pods and the first fights in the quaters up today.
Once the other 2 pods have been uploaded, then i will announce who the overall pod winners are
EDIT: Im filming the finals right now!
But you will all have to wait for that now wont you :p
EDIT:All the pods are now up, im just about to film the final, so the first 2 quaters will hopefully be up today!
-
Gonna start since the beginning...
PodA: A surprise... due to a cheap wedge glitch. Entertaining matches though (even if that wasn't really entertaining for me to see Purple Pest losing).
PodB: R0B0SH4RK's sheer skill and love for popups strikes again. Luckiest win award of the first matches goes to Phil.
PodC: No surprise here. Just like in beta testing, HnM stands up to it's name and tears through the opposition.
PodD: Another winner than can say thanks to havok. Reier surprised me for dominating the pod all way long, despite having theorically the worst wedges. Cheapest win award of the first matches goes to S32.
PodE: No real surprise here. The better builder wins. Credit to Tlee for not knowing what battery power is.
PodF: HOLY CRAP THE NOOB WON ?!?!?! And pretty easily... seems the fast HS with a low weapon/weapon motor weight ratio is a nice design, and i will definitely clone Ice Blast and try this. I was right on one thing anyways: Sage VS Kill was another MD3 VS Far Cry.
-
FFU is alot better than it looks. I faced it online a few months ago and it pwned most of my arsenal.
EDIT: and with the wedges, I am guessing that it did what alot of mine do, which is just that the collision mesh of the wedge is a little bit higher than what you actually see of the wedge.
-

BBEANS 2 all over again....
Supernova gets Kudos for proving that every rule of RA2 has an exeption. (Again.)

Ice Blast:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/18849sftwsmall.PNG)
What was that?
-
"And i will even say that FfU is an illegal bot because that wedge-under-the-floor thing is taking advantage of a glitch and against the realistic rule."
Maybe.
But it's only a wedge connected to an extender connected to a skirt hinge.
Isn't it everyone's aim to get the wedge as low as possible?
-
qft^
-
Oh heck.
Can't really blame you for being cunning, finding a loophole in the rules that did allowed glitch use like that and coming with probably one of the best wedges in the tourney.
... I'm still aiming for at least 3rd place !
EDIT: Quarters:
HnM VS Ice Blast: Heh. Destroyed. Didn't thought it would be so easy.
obZen VS Crashman: aka HazCon VS RRG, first match. Nice one.
FfU VS Immortal Corruptor: One word: RAPE. I'm starting to think FfU could be one of the 3rd best.
-
1st place semi finals:
Ice Blast VS HnM: Ice Blast was to busy dancing to fight, as expected, it's out.
obZen VS Crashman: House robot gets pitted, LOL. obZen also shows why it's a good popup.
FFU VS IC: I'm glad FFU got disqualified, now, we should add that glitch to the Realistic rule breakers.
-
I'm disqualified? Didn't think the wedge was that big of a deal. It's just a simple hinge...
Ah well.
-
BBEANS 2 all over again....
Supernova gets Kudos for proving that every rule of RA2 has an exeption. (Again.)
umm, no? im pretty sure someone put my turn speed to like 1. i have 4 npc fasts with hypnos on them and my turning is slow as a a snail. plus i got owned by the house bot (shame on you, madiaba!!).
oh well.
-
Yep... Sage's bot turning was anormally slow for that drive.
Disqualified? This is new... Wham didn't said nothing about disqualification, just that ImmCor passed.
Also these house bots aren't as deadly as Mad said. Keeps havoking (entertaining though) and not that damaging...
EDIT: didn't noticed the house bot pitting itself. LOL.
-
Shadow was Diqualified?! What?!
-
Ah man. I had to get flipped and pushed down the pit.
EDIT: Wait, I had a srimech. Why didn't it fire?
-
I have a HS like IceBlast and I'm still trying to get it to work right.
And who will be in the 2nd place Quarters?
-
Noones disqualified, what makes you think that?
Shadow may have a rather weird wedge, but it still means he can be beaten.
-
Then Why did it say he lost, when he clearly won?
-
PodF: HOLY CRAP THE NOOB WON ?!?!?! And pretty easily... seems the fast HS with a low weapon/weapon motor weight ratio is a nice design, and i will definitely clone Ice Blast and try this. I was right on one thing anyways: Sage VS Kill was another MD3 VS Far Cry.
Yeah, that's a weird thing. I get a Dual Perm 132 and put a tribar on it with 60kg sledgehammers, but the power is NOTHING compared to an DSL bar. Atleast 3x as powerful. (1800 -> 4600)
I might just be a rookie at DSL HW spinners but damn, that's a difference.
-
He beat farcry because of weak armour...
-
Yeah - It was confusing how the video stated that Jules's Immortal Corruptor moved on in the Quarters.
-
Are glitched wedges allowed?
-
No - but in my opinion, FfU's wedge is debatable. It's not necessarily the design of the bot that messes with the wedge, but rather the fact that it's a heavyweight and the hinge is pressing down on the extender.
-
Guess we have to wait till Wham comes back.
Also Wham i didn't exactly get the brackets's form -
After the pods and the quarters, we have 3 winners and 3 losers.
How do we fight now ?
-
I think it's like the first pod for the winners and losers, then the Second place bots on the first bracket do the same. (FMLAF, HoHoHammers...)
-
I think that it was just a typo in the vid.
-
Wait, I think it's the points made, not the results of the match (KO and TKO).
-
No, I think that FFU pwned IC and it was a typo.
-
I know I got destroyed, I just think it would be fair if the bot was edited to have normal wedges in the next rounds.
No need to be a dick
-
I don't think FFU's wedges actually go through the floor. They probably just have messed up collision that makes it look like they're going under the floor when they're really not.
The only component I've seen that actually goes through the floor is the Ghost Wedge in FB's component pack, and that will snag and pop out of the floor whenever it encounters a seam between polys. FFU doesn't ever snag.
Some good, if controversial, fights here.
-
Sometimes my axle wedges on FMLAF go under the floor when I enter the garage. They never snag.
-
lol ice blast certainly proved a lot of people wrong in the pod stage...
-
Hoping to get the next 3 rounds up today, then on monday, FINAL TIME!
-
I don't get it all. We're 6 competitors now, 3 in the winners bracket and 3 in the losers bracket...
Now what are you doing exactly?
-
Well you know that a pod has a winner (but 2 in the first round) well its a pod with the 3 losers of the semis, but the winner of the pod moves onto the final.
So then that makes 4 finalists.
-
Simply brilliANT.
EDIT: I would complain about Mutant Dragonfly pinning Haunt to be counted out, but I know Haunt wouldn't have had a chance against obZen anyways, so I won't.
-
lol on the use of BrilliANT!
Yeah, that pin was rather illegal, but if you noticed when Haunt was being counted out, MDVIII.V wasnt moving, so Haunt could of self righted then gotten out then when MD wasnt moving, besides, its how the AI work.
-
Pinning ? Illegal ? That's much less illegal than S32's win by havok...
Plus the fact is that MDVIII IS better than Haunt, and Haunt wasn't designed to self-right easily anyways.
-
Semi-Finals!
FfU vs. DestroyerWDB: Uneventful towards the end... being counted out like that is lame. Destroyer had a good chance of winning if he hadn't flipped. I was kinda' proud of that one hit of mine that stripped all of the armor and damaged the control board.
Purple Pest vs. Hope No more: Lawl when the house robot rolled over Hope No More for kicks. Then the house robot just got in the way of the battle.
Mutant Dragonfly vs. ObZen: Mutant Dragonfly is one sick looking bot... But ObZen owns as a pop-up to me. The problem with pistons and such (for me) is that if you're pinned in a corner with your weapons facing away, you're pretty much a goner.
-
Yeah, I think it is easy to tell from how badly mine was damaged in one hit that the armor is really weak on it. And I thought that I would of won if I did not flip over, although it is able to drive on its back like that but I think that the AI isn't able to do that.
-
Yep. Judging by the 2nd Quarters, Destroyer obviously can self-right. So can FfU, but neither were AIed to do so.
-
The same thing happened in RAW. Even though my wheels were still touching the ground, when I was flipped over it would not move.
And when I am flipped over using one of my robots that works like that, I normally drive it into the wall until it flips back over.
-
Also these house bots aren't as deadly as Mad said. Keeps havoking (entertaining though) and not that damaging...
Yea, I tuned it down a bit, else it was a bit too devastating. If you desire to change only 1 number in its python, it could be tweeked to be a 'one-touch-kill'.... instant death:evilsmile:. Hehe. (Sage could probably show you how...)
---------------
...., plus i got owned by the house bot (shame on you, madiaba!!).
oh well.
See these tears->:mrgreen:...
BTW: Nerd. Who helped me build and tweek that arena??? You're funny...
.
-
Ok, once the Semi-Losers Pod is up, i'll be needing reations from the finalists for the final clip.

(You say here)
If you can think of anymore, then please do tell me.
Plus, if you think i can do better with any future tournys i do, then also tell me, please.
-
I persoanlly nominate myself for the should have done better award..... I sucked!
-
Purple Pest? Didn't you make it to the semi-finals...?
This is my first tourney, but I'm definately not new to the forums so I don't qualify for anything. xD
-
Wait..... I did?!
-

-
Wait..... I did?!
You're in the finals.
-
WHAT?!?!?! Seriously?...
Cool.

You beat me and Dragonfly in the Semi-Losers Pod to make it to the Finals.
-
Where was I when this was happening?!
-
Yeah, It's the MOST points. That's why I'm out, even though I beat MD 5 and Crashman.
loser's Pod:
Acams is right, MD should be called rear rammer after that match with Destroyer WDB!
Go PP!
-
Oh. Sweet.
-
...snapper wedges > axle wedges and i'm pretty sure Destroyer couldn't self-right because of the bars being too long and the weapons too heavy for this.
Also for the awards..;
Best Design:
Tie: R0B0SH4RK and Naryar (obviously)
Should Have Done Better:
Jules
Coolest Bot:
Tlee
SFTW:
Tie: WhammettNuht and Tlee

philetbabe
Most Fearsome Opponent:

-
I can normally self-right it when that happens.
-
Who says there will be awards? And I'm still hoping that there will be tag team match.
Best Design:
Reier: His Piston pokers are the deadliest ones I've seen. I've been honoured to fight him.
Should Have Done Better:
HoHoHammers: This tortoise never read the sory about the hare.
Coolest Bot:
Somebody: Haunt looked awesome, end of.
SFTW:
courthousedoc: he didn't even make it to the other bot!
Most Original:
philletbabe: It sucked as an AI, but looked freaking awesome while it sucked. Good AIing from Madaba and Phillet.
Most Fearsome Opponent:
ShadowArts: Shockingly effective, and scared the crap outta quite a few members.
Most Surprising:
Supernova: Showing that every rule in RA2 has an exeption and giving us another chance to rub it in Naryar's face.
-
Okay all, FINAL TIME TOMOROW!
I have a reaction from Urjak :p
Just need one from the other finalists.
Plus im planning on a short meet the finalists vid for today.
-
Nice job here, Wham...Impressive. :approve:
.
-
LOL JOE GOT OWNED. Congrats to Reier for being the 5th.
So... Hope no More, Purple Pest (i said it was a good bot!), obZen and Flames from Under...
I think can win this.
-
:/
maybe if i turned a little faster....
oh well. Good tourney everyone.
-
The only one I have not fought in this tournement is obzen, so I might be able to take him out. I also might be able to beat Flames From Under, as our previous match was close.
-
Yep. Purpe Pest seems much more stable. Especially if I roll into the pits again... >.> It depends on what angle they collide.
I haven't faced Hope no More or ObZen.
-
Well... good luck Naryar, ShadowArts and ROBOSH4RK!
-
Mhmm. Good luck in the finals. I'm interested in the "meet the finalists" video.
-
FWAHAHA!
Just because im evil (and want to take as much time on it, making it the best it can be) im not going to upload the final untill tomorow night!
Anyway, thanks for your reactions, they'll be in the vid :)
Plus, i can NOW reveal the line up for the finals:
Purple Pest v obZen
Hope No More 3.2 v FlamesFromUnder
Good luck to the finalists tomorow (why am i saying this, i know and Mad knows who the winner is
/:-) )
-
LOL.
True. I was hoping the vids might have came even slower for suspense.
Well, time to wait ._.
By the way, Thanks a bunch to Wham, Mad, and all the others who put effort in for the awesome tourney! WRL was definitely worth the wait.
-
Thanks
The MTF vid should be up.
But f***ing youtube and thier stupid copyright business have disabled the audio, so now im pissed off.
-
Yeah... That was one quick copywright attack. It took a month for youtube to find my video...
-
Boy... I love my prediction...... :frown:
I mean really.... not a single nice thing about it....
-
Give the championship to shadowarts. or at least him and Urjak fight for it. The other two should be booted.
-
AHH...no.

Hate obZen and HnM?
-
Well, since R0B0SH4RK has yet been unable to comment, he's so far been put as R0B0SH4RK was unable to comment XD

I think part of that is because mine was slower than the two I fought.
Thanks

How did they do that so fast?
-

Agreed. Mako clones do not like really fast collisions.
-
Yeah, but the new version of it that I built with faster drive motors does handle it better.
-
Inf hates obZen and HNM3.2 because he hates DSL popups.
-
if they were realistic i wouldnt care.
-
Ladies and Gentlemen!
The WRL final is up!
-
...
-
Hoooo. 3rd place.
My wedge got owned. Nice win Naryar.
Edit: I wonder if this qualifies for some achievement list in my signature >.>
-
Good job Naryar.
-
...
If you mean your speach less, i dont balme you :)
Well done Naryar!
I'll be giving you your prizes later!
