The Crash & Burn Tournament
OK, looking around the Whyachi website, I cant find any good information on it, and the only video Ive found is it flipping what looks to be an empty shell. As its Team Whyachi though, Ill assume the spinner is powerful.
Also, I cant find any details on armour composition, but seeing its a real robot and thus has a budget, I doubt its got super bot class armour. Ill aim at the flipper and try to wreck/remove it, then aim at the body. Should disc and body connect while both are spinning, I think its safe to assume neither will work any more, so after that I think its a boring nudge into each other kind of thing.
In terms of spinners, one think I have going for me is that if he wants to hit anything good, he has to go into range of the disc. If he attacks the outer hubs, hes literally only damaging armour. To get at the componants, he has to go after the inner hubs.

ACTIVATE!!
Its The Disc who immediately goes for the frontal assault, hoping to tear the flipper off of his opponent but Warrior destroys this chance by doing an about face and showing The Disc how deadly his own flywheel is. Quickly The Disc reverses, but not quickly enough, as Warrior juts in from behind and both discs meet!
CRASH!!!
HOLY JEBUS! Its a huge spectacle as both bots are thrown for a loop! The Disc crashes into the wall opposite, his weapon stopped, whilst Warrior is flung near the pit, almost-pulling-a-Son-of-Whyachi-but-not-quite bouncing around. And his disc too has stopped! And does that mean that by having his disc taken out, the flipper is immobile as well? OH NO! The flywheel starts up again! The Disc is in major trouble now! Without his own disc to combat the advancing robot, The Disc has no choice but to try and resort to the sucky way of winning - the pit! But Warrior is just way too fast, cutting between The Disc and the pit! FLIP! The Disc lands on one of his hubs and crashes back down. Warrior goes for the gusto and rams The Disc into the wall, and goes for the OOTA! NO! The Disc bounces off the wall and overtop of Warrior. Warrior reverses and cuts into The Discs own disc. WHATS THIS?! The Discs disc is spinning again! Yes, there is doubt that it is working, because hes moving around a bit, and that deadly flywheel - OOH! Theres a little hit on the side of Warrior, and a little bouncing around! Frank looks smug now as his evil creation rams Warrior head-on, and Warrior isnt doing too much moving around right now. The Disc comes in again and Warrior reverses away! Got his maneouverability back, it seems. And both bots are back into this fight at full strength it seems. Warrior coming in for a hit in the hub, and a little scratch can be seen on the hub, but the same hit sends The Disc flying across the floor! And Warrior is coming in for another attack! So relentless! The Disc meets him again. Disc vs disc!
CRASH!!!
OH MY! Somethings sparked inside of Warrior! Both discs have stopped again! Warrior gets under The Disc but seeing as the disc powers the flipper, it doesnt happen, no flip, nothin. The Disc is trapped against the wall though, and Warrior is holding him there by the...disc. :proud: The Watcher shoves them both and forces Warrior to release The Disc, whose right hub hits the angle grinder, and he swivels around the hub nearly entering Ancalagons CPZ! Warrior sees his chance and comes in with the flipper, pushing his opponent into the CPZ, and gets bowled away by an incoming Taki! Ancalagon gives a flaming snort and tries to get at The Discs axle but his flywheel hits a hub and sends The Disc flying! The hub that was hit is now hanging off! Taki shows her own contempt for The Disc and hits The Discs weapon with her own cutter, and AHHHHHH!!! A piece of metal went flying off! Ancalagon turns around and backs into The Disc with the rear skirt, forcing Taki to move away. Warrior, angered, rams Taki with the flipper and sends her on top of Ancalagon. The Disc gets away and pushes Warrior from the side. Warrior responds with a flipper shove that shoves The Disc right back into the CPZ! Ancalagon turns and -
CRASH!!!
Pieces of The Discs tungsten teeth-tipped axle are strewn across the floor! What a hit! Warrior smells blood and charges The Disc to the edge of the CPZ and along the wall, and just short of the pit. Uh, somebody forgot to open it. :proud: Oh wait, The Disc is shoved into the pit release button. And just as time starts to run out, Warrior manages to get one of The Discs hubs stuck over the pit. 5 seconds left, and The Disc is shoved into the hole.
CEASE!
The Disc 5 fails to live up to its reputation.

Shovearound is immediately in TANs face, indeed shoving him around and into the wall! TAN bounces a little and rides the top of Shovearound and off the side before Shovearound can start to reverse. Shovearound points the forks at TAN, and it doesnt seem like TAN can do much here because Shovearound is way too low and way too hard to grab. And theres some more shoving as TAN is again tipped and thrashed against the wall, much harder this time, and nearly gets inverted! However futile it may be for TAN to be on his back, even invertibility cant help TAN win this match! Shovearound comes in again with another shove, but TAN reverses away causing Shovearound to poke the arena wall gently. TAN advances with the pincers but Shovearound turns slightly and TAN is thrown to the side by the rear skirt. Shovearound turns more vigorously than usual and the power of Anthonys rammer throws TAN spinning away. TAN gets his bearings back and rears into Shovearound this time, who doesnt fall for the trap, but allows his opponent to ride on top of the body, before slamming him into the wall yet again! A smug expression appears on Anthonys face as he sees the advantage before him. TAN is stuck in the air, claws against the arena wall, with Shovearounds forks under him, and the forks lift, and TAN is forced into a ridiculous position with his wheels hovering just above the arena railing, and the open claws on the ground. I think I know the words for this situation: GAME OVER. The Watcher comes and starts the countdown!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Shovearound comes in again, and displaying some honour, gets the forks under the claws and lifts, thus shunting TAN out of the arena, out of the competition, and thankfully out of the clutches of the house robots, who were eyeing him greedily. They turn on Shovearound in anger, but Shovearound has already hit the pit release button and thrown himself down the pit! :proud:
CEASE!
Tough As Nails is about as tough as Tickle-Me-Elmo. :proud:

The Crash & Burn Tournament
and yes if you actually go to a live event people do boo when the person they like doesnt win!!!
The Crash & Burn Tournament
Maybe so, but the ettiquette of complainage here is more along the lines of:
Hes overweight!
It would never work at that preassure/voltage/etc!
That will never survive its own hits!
Theres no way you can ram someone over the wall! (actual quote)
*Insert weapon here* isnt capable of doing that kind of damage!
You misread my stats!
