Nice impression, AJ. You could do that for a living.
Sorry, this isnt designed to improve WORCK, just to make sure its inside reality. The only differences here were the phrasing of certain body-parts, and the debilerate adding of shock proof padding in case Im REALLY flipped.
WORCK
€ WEIGHT: 100kg
€ ARMOUR: 5mm Hardox for the body and flipper. 6mm Hardox for the scoop. There are hindged wedges on the sides and rear of Worck made of 3.25mm Hardox. Behind the armour, all the way around Vulkanised rubber to shock-proof it against spinners.
€ SHAPE: A low wedge shape.
€ MOTORS: 2 x S28-400 MagMotors at 36V = 12HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 Vulkanised Wheels.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 70CM (H) 15CM (W) 70CM
€ COLOUR: Black for the flipper and barbs, white for the body.
€ WEAPONRY: A forward hindged flipper, running on a single 750psi ram running on CO2. The gas is contained in 2 x 2.5kg bottle, giving me 20 flips per fight, and the gearing on the ram 3:1 means we have 1300kg of flipping force! That should mean on a forward hindged flipper that I can flip almost everything OOTA.
€ SPEED: 13mph
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: The wedges, which join up at the corners of the robot, make the ground clearance effectively zero, but underneath the wedges is 5mm of clearance. The wedges are held on by Titanium hindges
€ STRENGTH: Near impossible to get under.
€ WEAKNESS: Low speeds.
If you ask where all the shock-proofing came from, I lost 5kg on the redesign, so I added in that in case I faced a spinner.
DONT DOUBLE POST!
Well, to be fair, you cant really hold THAT against him, seeing as how FRA disables edits after 10 minutes.
The rest stands, though.
first fight(s) up today

YOURE WELCOME!
No place for grudges in a regular tournament like this, why do you have a grudge against Chris anyway?

Double post. sorry

Impatience sucks. :lame:
n00bs suck :lame:
TIME TO KICK THIS THING OFF!!!
A small reminder: This is a part 1 of UTATYA, a series of tournaments where the arena shall be heavily biased towards certain kinds of robots. In this part, the arena walls will be low, bloody low, so€¦ guess what robots will do well here? :wink:
Round of 16
Fight 1
Walk Away vs Starstorm 2
Walk Away: Ring spinner walker thingy. Its biggest forte in this specific arena is its variable ground clearance (0 mm minimum) as well as its weight bonus, which should give evil flippers a harder time getting it anywhere.
Starstorm 2: Full body flipper, you don€™t see that everyday. The whole body moves up, as will its victims. This machine won€™t perform OOTA€™s as well basic wedge-flippers, but with walls as low as this, will that really be a problem?

ACTIVATE!
Starstorm 2€™s a Formula 1-car when compared to the slow walker he opposes, but what Walk Away lacks in walking velocity it makes up in weapon speed :proud:. Frank€™s getting mildly worried when he sees Walk Away€¦ walking away (:proud:) to buy itself time for its weapon to spin up. Starstorm utilizes its superior speed to attack Walk Way!
CRASH!
Tony was quick enough to retract Walk Away€™s legs in order to make the ground clearance death zero. Frank couldn€™t react in time and took the full wrath of the spinning ring! Luckily Frank€™s vapour is dome-shaped and Hardox-armoured, but that doesn€™t stop Frank from being pretty damn annoyed by this outcome. The full body flipper quickly recovers and drives towards Walk Away again, who has seemingly decided to remain static in order to keep its 0 GC. Starstorm again attempts to penetrate Walk Away€™s underbelly, less reckless and more controlled this time. However, Walk Away defensive mechanism is formidable and Startstorm doesn€™t manage to pull off its plan. Walk Away is pushed rather than anything else, and after a while Starstorm stops it attempt. Tony still doesn€™t there use its legs with Starstorm so close to it. Frank decides to drive circles around Walk Away now to either lure him into action or keep him immobile as long as possible. Matter of fact, Walk Away has been immobile for over 20 seconds!

And Walk Away€™s walking again! Starstorm is VERY quick to respond and rams under!!!
FLIP!
Walk Away€™s thrown up and over, without srimech, without any help!

Wedge Devo to give Spinalot a warm welcome to the Out of the Arena club....
Charge straight in before the bar gets up to full speed and stop it. Slide underneath and flip before it can start whirling again. From there, dump it out the ring before it can self-right. :proud:
DESTROY WEDGE DEVOLUTION! DESTROY WEDGE DEVOLUTION! DESTROY WEDGE DEVOLUTION! :angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:
Calm down. Now.
Shut up. This is a respetive forum for mature people, not those who act like theyre two years old.
You should take your own advice Christopher.
Im not the one screaming like a psychotic and threatening everyone in sight with angry faces.
*screams like a psychotic idiot and threatens to destroy the world*:angry::angry::angry::angry: :wink:
What the hell did you lash out at Chris for? He stated a fact: you WERE acting completely immature, and thats not looked upon kindly here.
Andre, you have no right to be insulting people when youre in the wrong, so if I were you, Id follow Chris advice and shut the hell up, fast, or else. :P
That was stupid. I dont even know Walk Away by Franz Ferdinand, which is obviously a lack of writer research right there.
Otherwise, good fight:proud:

Fiction Frank, this is fiction, I can make all of you perform impossible feats in my tournaments, making you whistle a song you dont know being among the more impressive ones!
MUHAHAHAHA!
How did I even insult, I didnt bad-mouth or nothing.

Like Oh My God I Cant Believe You Just Said That I Mean Andre Is Sooooo Vicky Pollard Or Something Or Nuffink!
Hey Kody. Do youself a favor. Quit whining and get it over with.
And thats just being stupid and cheap. Youre clearly the immature acting one here, so dont try to hide it by blaming everyone else. As you can see, youre hopelessly out-numbered. Stop trying to destroy the forums.
Can everyone please calm down?
Cut the crap Christopher. I did not came to destroy the forum. I came here to have fun. And youre just as bigger crybaby as Kody and anyone else in this forum. Beside youre behavior is too babyish for your brain to comprehend.
Yes, we KNOW youre a big crybaby. It doesnt take a genius to figure that out. Youre hopelessly outnumbered, and you ARE destroying the forum.
Oh, and by the way...
I did not came
And youre just as bigger crybaby
Besides youre behaviour
Hopelessly wrong.
I did not come
And youre just as big a crybaby
Besides, your behaviour
Proves were smarter than you. Now go away.
Youre a bigger moron than I thought, Chris. You not even mod. Beside Im not taking any orders by an idiot such as yourself. Im staying. End of story.
Wow, nice ad hominem attack there, Chris.
That aside, Andre is being very antagonistic, and needs to either get a grip on himself or leave.
Meanwhile, I agree with Joey. Calm down, both sides.
Edit: Andre just countered the ad hominem with a much worse one, and lost any sympathy I had. At this rate, no one will let you enter tournaments, Andre, defeating your purpose.

Look, you dont HAVE to keep admitting to being a moron or an idiot.
Self-admitted morons, crybabies and idiots are NOT welcome on this forum. You have a sad, sad idea of having fun. You are ruining the tournament, now go away.
You not even mod
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Sorry, had to laugh at that.
Calm Down before someone from the admin comes down with a ton of bricks and locks the thread.
