Thats ancient history.
and you won the Wars of Fury
Silence! It was a joke. Toms won things too.
We have a bit of an inner-joke going that only one of my robots has actually won anything.
If theres space, I would like to Get Psycho Cyan.
My robot of choice will be:
Dont Worry Dear, Its Only a Robot
Calm Down Dear (Its just a Robot)
Shape - A Logitech cordless mouse shape with Judge Shread style flipper
Weapon - Judge Shread style co2 flipper, acts as srimech with added bars to make sure it will self-right. Bars form part of chassis.
Drive - 6 wheel drive, on two axles. The front axle has two wheels, the rear axle has double wheels. Powered by a couple of lovely Lems at 36 volts. Tornado style Speed controllers and electrical stuff to provide current of 200 amps
Batteries - Nicads.
Speed - Built for acceleration this machine, with a 24 mph top speed, with acceleration to match Storm 2.
Armour - 4mm Hardox shell, held tight by a titanium framework chassis, with added steel ladder supports. Around the wheels are more support to prevent armour hitting wheels.
Skirts - Simple low angled skirts to prevent other robots getting underneath. Angled at 12 degree to the x-axis.
Ride Height - At front, with the front plough scoop, we can assume its low, say 0. The sides without skirts is 2 cm to prevent grounding out. The front wedge can be lifted up using a linear actuator for some reason, I aint though about yet.
Summary - Its a mouse shaped robot, with flipper, designed to be like storm 2, if it was mouse shaped and had a flipper.
Strengths - Go Faster shape, speed, flipper.
Weaknesses - Likes Cheese, armour isnt up with the best.
Wait.., my apologies for the bump, I assume new blood is new blood for NSBFL in paticular or in ANY tourtament on FRA?
If any on FRA, replace whoever i entered in new blood [Vampire Killer, I think] with the brand new I knew Jack Kennedy and you sir are no Jack Kennedy...

New blood is for NSBFL only.
...I really need to sort out the brackets on this again to see how many places are left in what:lame:
if theres any places then ill enter the incredible bulk stats r weapons 2 axes front flipper back spikes and spinning disks
speed 15 mph
shape square
drive motor
armour titanium bullet proof and disc proof
summary ur average 88kilobot with axes spikes flipper and the killing disc which can shred a whole town in 5 seconds(ok 5 mins)square great manuevrability
strengths weapons maneuvrability shape speed armour
weaknesses weight easily flipped
Hehehe, you have a lot to learn. For a start, stop entering tournaments that are already full and started. XD
OK, assuming Tim isnt an old member having a little joke with us, that robot is so BIIBI I dont even know where to start.
I believe the a lot to learn mentioned by AJ is how to write stats. *rolls eyes* I would express my customary comment from real life, however I think I may be barred for aggressive behaviour if I did.
Doesnt matter. Im as certain as I can be that Tim is a joke account.
hey frank ur a joke account
ive wrote stats before
heres a thing about this forum, you c the little edit button, use it so you dont post 1 minuet after you just posted
where is it
Its the top right of your post, next to the notepad with the X in it. Cant miss it.
tanks err i mean thanks
Probably about time I updated whos in what, what with NSBFL 7 nearly being done.

I need entries and stats for all robots not yet entered and statted, some more people to get Baldur, Psycho Cyan and Chalkie, and some more new bloods.
Cosmic Thunder to get Psycho Cyan.

Welcome abord Alexs, one problem with Cosmic Thunder though. Ground clearence is way too low, and will lead to the robot getting grounded pretty much invitably. Even if that doesnt happen, it will have the same problems Mute had in series 7, so increase that please.
Alright, I made a mistake in my stats.
Ground Clearence: 0 at the front, 1.5mm around the sides, and 0.5mm at the back. Underneath the hinged wedges, the ground clearence is 0 on the front 2mm everywhere else.
Good? Im pretty new at this stats system.
1.5mm is still too low, you need at least 5/6mm to avoid grounding out, which Frank uses quite a lot in the last bot dancing arena
Dammit, mm is supposed to stand for cm. But Ill go ahead and change it to 7mm for side wedges.
Frank, Ive just put most of my stats through a total overhaul [A few might be overweight] So if you could use the upgraded versions instead of the versions I gave earlier, thatd be GREAT.
http://farr.proboards21.com/index.cgi?board=Hitmen&page=2http://farr.proboards21.com/index.cg...=Hitmen&page=2
Oh, also, I might swap a few positions [key word: a few, nothing too major] around and might drop my tag team to pair with Alex M if he wants to, if thats alright.
(Message edited by Swiss_tony on September 18, 2005)
Thats be cool, Shovearound 2 with anyone of my robots.
Can I update PCC with Seggy 4.2?
In answer to Anthony, Alex M & W and Dave:
Yes.
Okay. Me and Alex have agreed on SUNCUST [stats up] and Flank Attack [Stats for it should be up soon]
SUNCUST and Judo Chop! Will be replacing Dr. Evil and Terror Gear in football. SUNCUSTs jaws have been modified to do next to nothing except clamp the ball [but not damage it as the spikes have been removed] And Judo Chop!s axes have had the blades removed and now do pretty mcuh nothing except just grab the enemy if they charge for the goal and hopefully prevent the ball from going in.
Also, you have two of my robots in new blood [Jack Kennedy and Vampire Killer] when you said we were limited to one, so drop Jack Kennedy.
Change of plans: I have Shovearound 2 and Alex has FBSDS [new bot which should be stated soon].

FBSDS stats
FBSDS ground clearence is way too low. This is especially bad for spinners as it can quite likely be beached by debris from its opponant.
Please disregard, I thought I put 8mm or 0.8cm. Either way, its fixed now.
While were on that subject you might want to change it for all your other machines as well as they all have the xact same mistake.
Oh by the way, Cosmic Thunder has hinged wedges all around making it at 0mm all around. Underneath those wedges the clearence is something like 8mm. So that should be that over.
I cant find that mistake for any of my other robots though...
I like keeping helpful quotes in case I ever need to refer for information. Heres one that I think Nick once said:
People keep going around bragging about 1 mm clearence as if it were a good thing. But its better to be tossed around by high wedges than to get stuck on the smallest pieces of shrapnel. 1 cm or higher is preferred, perhaps less in some areas far from the wheels. ESPECIALLY FOR FULL-BODY SPINNERS.
On a different note Im working on some new robots at the moment to put in here, sorry about the delay.
Too late to join?
Not for the new blood I think
You can enter new blood, or something for Get Him.
