Spawn Again is correct

Question 12
Name two occurences of separate robot teams using the same name

Actually I remembered that Scutters Revenge was in the GBC game, but I think I got it on my second try :proud:

Spin Doctor (S2, one of the american shows, S7) and Scrapper (S1, S7)

Och, my bad. Anyways, those are both correct

Question 13, this ones tricky:
If ragingknightmarespawnagain were a word, you could from it by putting together the two robot names Raging Knightmare and Spawn Again. Name a REAL word you can make by putting together two competitors€™ names in the aforementioned fashion

Lightning Storm?

Nope, has to be just one word, not a compound

I cant think of anything, although Bladestorm is sticking in my head for some reason...damn you Ian :proud:

*light bulb illuminates*

RHINOCEROS!

You got it!

Question 14:
If all the number and letter keys on your keyboard are broken, except the top row of letters, what are 3 robot names you can spell out?

Are we allowed spaces, or do they have to be one word names?

Spaces are ok, so are symbols, except for !@#$%^&*( and ) because you have to hold down shift while pressing a number key, but your number keys are broken so you cant

Right...I think at least one of these is cheating, but anyway:

Tip Top
T II
Ewe II

The trick was supposed to be that you can spell out t-w-o with the given letters, but I like that you found another way.

Question 15:
Name any heat in the competition where more than the robots had animal-based names (misspellings and plays on words count)

Heat K, series 7

Series 7, Heat J - Thermidor II vs. Mighty Mouse

(I think actually, we already know whos won :mrgreen:)

Heat K is correct

Question 16:
Make a list of every robot team, ordered by the number of series they€™ve qualified for. Next, cross out everyone that€™s ever made it to a semi-final. The team at the top of you list is€¦?

...Diotoir?

Nope, not Diotoir

The robots at the top of my list are Diotoir, S.M.I.D.S.Y, Supernova, Kat 3, 259 and Ming Dienasty. One of those has got to be right.

One of them is

Sorry Mate I Didnt See You?

Didnt one version of Ming make it to round 4?

S.M.I.D.S.Y

Ok, Ive screwed up again. It turns out that quite a few robots tie for this poisition instead of just one. Christopher listed most of the correct answers, so Ill give him that one. Sorry about that

Question 17:
Besides Suicidal Tendencies, name a team that has had a spinner, crusher, and axe/hammer, each on a sepereate robot

Team RCC

We also have several flippers and a rambot.


(Message edited by leo-rcc on April 24, 2008)

Youre correct Leo, I think...Splinter and Obsidian (axe), that drum robot you once had (spinner) and Mantis (crusher) right?

But just in case hes looking for Robot Wars teams from the UK series, Ill go ahead and say Tetanus (Flip Flop Fly (S3, axe), Tetanus II (crusher), Tetanus Booster (spinner))

...meh, Ive won anyway :proud:

Yeah, I can only accept answer from the TV programme, so point for Joey.

I know its a forgone conclusion, but if anyones still interested, theres two questions left

Question 18:
Name a fight between two robots whose names were their weapons

Blade vs. Spike, series 3 heat C :proud:

Youre on fire.

Last question:
Name ANY person that€™s made an appearance in every series of robot wars

We were on Robotwars during Series 5 6 and 7 with a spinner, crusher, and axe.

RCC (axe), Blackdevil Warzone(spinner) and RCC2(crusher).

If you dont like the answer make the question more precise.


(Message edited by leo-rcc on April 24, 2008)

May as well guess...is it onscreen appearances only? If so, I have no idea; if not, Jonathan Pearce.

Incidentally, how do I change my display name? Cant find any mention of it in the help...

Derek Foxwell.

*BANG!*

OK, I shot Joey. :wink:

*dies*

Joeys won already, lets just call it a day. :proud:

Congrats to Joey, you are a Robot Wars expert. Go out and tell everyone you know. If aynone asks, its not boasting, its the spread of information.
