OK, THIS ISNT FAIR! You warn everyone (EVERYONE) else about weight problems AT LEAST a month before the fight. Why warn me the day BEFORE the fight? Why do I have to be the outcast in EVERYTHING?!
Because I was too lazy to fully check all the stats for the other weights :proud:
OK then. I cant replace it as I dont own any other featherweights, so Ill have to drill some holes. If that doesnt work, Ill have to remove the side armour.
Chris, that same message was posted three days ago. You werent warned only the day before.
*hides in a tank*
Well, its not my fault if people keep archiving it down. Its also not my fault that people dont use the same rules as each other anymore.
I use the double the weight limit for walkers rule, I dont know which rule Steve used for his FW walkers.
You can replace it with a realie (ie DTK).
As much as I like the little guy, Id rather stick with my own. Tournies these days can sometimes be rather cruel to real robots, no offence.
Ive done the holes and removed the side armour. If it still isnt enough, then Ill have to use DTK. I dont know what else I can do without doing a Diotoir and removing the armour and weapon (OK, they didnt remove it, but it wasnt working).
You will be allowed to run without any side armour
I have some bad news...
...*drum rolls*
...I will still be doing the other weight fights...
...tomorrow...
...*gets hit by rolling drum*

It€™s been a long time coming but here finally are the other weight qualifiers.

In the red square, from Oxford, Hell€™s Angel. Simple axe here on a wedge with 2 direct drive wheels.

Ram-Raider shots away from the yellow square, like it€™s got a rocket up it€™s rear end. Conundrum starts off as well, with Tony driving this strange machine with the drum. Hell€™s Angel comes around as well, shooting out of the red square, as Ram-Raider turns and drives towards Hell€™s Angel at full speed, slamming into the front end at full power. Conundrum comes up behind Ram-Raider and gives the rear end a good hit from the vertical drum.
Ram-Raider is lifted up; as Hell€™s Angel fires the axe, putting a lovely hit though the armour on top of Ram-Raider. Conundrum comes in with a side hit onto Ram-Raider as it is pinned against Hell€™s Angel, as a part of the walking system is ripped out of the armour less sides. Hell€™s Angel pushes back against Ram-Raider, as Conundrum drives into Ram-Raider again, and flips it fully onto Hell€™s Angels; the right hand side drive is gone, as Ref starts to count Ram-Raider out.
Hell€™s Angel drops Chris€™ rammer and goes off to join Conundrum in the featherweight first round proper. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and there goes the red card, as Ram-Raider has been counted out.
Cease
Hell€™s Angel and Conundrum move onto the semi finals.
Qualifier Melee 2
Storm Vortex vs. Kinetic Energy vs. OverDrive (1)
All 3 robots are ready, I can€™t be asked to do the introductions.

OverDrive is away from the starting squares without any wait whatsoever, as Andy turns to box-rush into Storm Vortex, Kinetic Energy starts to come up, with it€™s undercutting blade to destroy wheels, as OverDrive rams into Storm Vortex from the side, as Martyn tries to turn to get his evil blade into play, as Kinetic Energy slams into the side of Storm Vortex, and has a slice of the wheels, but nothing too deadly, as OverDrive is pushing both robots sideways, as Kinetic Energy breaks the left wheels and dives off to the rear of Storm Vortex as it hits into the arena wall hard.
Storm Vortex jumps away as Kinetic Energy comes back at it, as OverDrive goes off to open the pit. Storm Vortex turns, as both robots meet head-on, as Kinetic Energy is sent over onto it€™s back, as OverDrive slams into Storm Vortex once more, and pushes it towards the pit, before that disc can do more damage to the other robots here today. Kinetic Energy€™s front is slightly bent, but that can be hammered out, as OverDrive dumps Storm Vortex down the pit of lost hopes and dreams and out of the featherweights before it had even started.
Cease
Kinetic Energy and the current champion, OverDrive move into the semi finals.
Lightweight Qualifier
Hell Hound vs. Typhoon Thunder vs. Toe Crusher vs. Little Big Bot vs. MiniForce

All chaos breaks loose as Typhoon Thunder starts to spin up to speed as MiniForce sets off to aim towards the Typhoon robot. Toe Crusher starts to roll, with it€™s overhead hammer ready to come down, as Hell Hound drives away. Little Big Bot is fighting for it€™s right to party, as Chris fires the hammer, as MiniForce crashes into Typhoon Thunder sending the little lightweight away in a spin to hit the side wheels of Toe Crusher.
Meanwhile Hell Hound is being hit by Little Big Bot€™s axe, as the claws crush though the armour like paper, as MiniForce rams into Toe Crusher, pushing it into Typhoon Thunder, as it is now up to speed, as the right hand wheel have been semi-ripped off, as Tony is trying to turn, but another hit from Typhoon Thunder, removes the wheels completely.
MiniForce has opened the pit release, as Little Big Bot and Hell Hound are having a mini-fight between the two, as Typhoon Thunder spins up and hits into the side of Hell Hound, ripping off the side plate, as MiniForce rams into Toe Crusher, pushing it over the arena and down the pit. Typhoon Thunder slams into the side of Little Big Bot causing some pretty lovely damage, as Cease is called.
Cease
Toe Crusher pitted by MiniForce. MiniForce, Typhoon Thunder, Little Big Bot & Hell Hound go forward to the Lightweight semi finals.
Middleweight Qualifier
Hell Fire (1) vs. Typhoon vs. Knee Breaker vs. Tom vs. The Steel Sandwich

Typhoon at once spins up to speed, as Hell Fire, the current champion of the FAR middleweight cup, handed to him when Steven failed to renter to defend the cup. Tom is moving away from the square, with that flipper at the front if anything gets on that it is going for a flying lesson, as Knee Breaker gets it€™s blade up to speed. Hell Fire turns and chases towards The Steel Sandwich with it€™s lifter. Typhoon is away as Tom fails to get underneath Knee Breaker and gets a side-full of pain in reply, as Typhoon slams into Hell Fire, which is currently trying to take out The Steal Sandwich.
The outside wheel of Hell Fire is away, but it still has another wheel on that side, as Knee Breaker slams into the side of Hell Fire. Tom sees his chance and gets underneath the side of Hell Fire and flips it onto Typhoon. Hell Fire is sent away from Typhoon, as it lands, something goes bang inside of Hell Fire, as Knee Breaker slams into the side once more. Tom gets underneath The Steal Sandwich and flips it over onto it€™s top. Hell Fire is moving slowly, but it has taken damage from that flip onto Typhoon, as Martyn gives the side of Hell Fire another lovely hit, breaking the other wheel in the process.
The Steel Sandwich slams underneath Typhoon, which isn€™t up to speed, as Andy lifts the lifter turning Typhoon onto it€™s side. Tom slams into the rear end of Knee Breaker and flips it over, the bar hitting the solid steel floor and jumps away. Ref is moving in to count out Hell Fire, as Tom fires Typhoon back onto it€™s wheels, as The Steel Sandwich slams into Knee Breaker. Hell Fire never recovered from the constant hits from Typhoon and Knee Breaker and has broken down.
Cease
On further inspection, it was discovered that Hell Fire€™s chassis was smashed open on the side, ripping the batteries clean away from their holding place. Typhoon, Tom, The Steel Sandwich & Knee Breaker goes forward to the semi finals.
