Vapourbot Grand Championships 2006

I apologize for what may likely seem like my irritability on the part of this, but I believe this is better encouragement for people to be more careful when writing their stats than saying they won€™t be in, if they are not in they have no reason to bother with stats, thus it doesn€™t matter if they don€™t do them, this way people will see reason to write better stats.

just to let you know the second ones gonna have fur.

If theres anything wrong with Walk Idiot Walk, sorry, I wont be able to correct it. My computer is now unusable when AVG deleted a file needed to run windows. It might be fixed, it might not be, and if it is fixed, it might not be for a long time.
Just a warning in ahead of time. And Im on another computer which I wont be near much.
I was going to ask someone on MSN to post this, but MSN Web is being stupid and wont let me sign in.

Well done Alex, nice to see someone is making a stand on poor stats. And great battles too. :)

And thanks for that useful peice of information Timothy.

Wait wait wait.

What the heck?

Circular shape, wheel pods, invertible and €˜like nothing you€™ve seen before€™ don€™t precisely help me picture how this thing is going to fight. I€™m therefore assuming this machine is an invertible very short cylinder, four wheel pods sticking out at 90 degrees to each other and a large horizontal circular saw at the front. I really can€™t see how this fits together otherwise.

Theres a freaking CAD on the page.

And if, apparently since you seem to be, too dumb to check the ENTIRE page, heres the freaking picture.

Look, right there!

Jesus, way to be a lazy piece of crap.

Well his assumptions dont look too different from the picture, so what damage is done?

Firstly, I apologize for that, however, that was more or less exactly how I pictured it anyway, the only difference being I pictured whe wheel pods being more rounded.

Secondly, I copy and paste the stats onto a big document, I do not read through them until I get to the fight, I do not have access to the net on my own computer, the stats did not reference the CAD in any way otherwise I would have gone to look for it.

Thirdly, this still doesnt help me with all the major issues I was unsure of: construction of the wheelpods and details of the saw like weight and what the teeth are liek are still not accounted for.

Fourthly I will answer for any individual complaints on this system of working once per robot. Im not letting this become a continuing issue.

Alexander MacWilliams - go back to ARC or play nice.

I hardly think dumb and lazy peice of crap are appropriate things to say, especially to someone like Alex.

Saw weight? What the teeth are like? Its a bloody BAR! Theres no saw anywhere on the robot!

If you do write results about robots, then you must know that you need all the information on them. And let me make sure I have this straight; you dont have net access on your computer. Okay, then how on earth did you copy all the stats onto there then? And Ill go ahead and say that its pretty bad that you dont have internet access on your own computer where you write results.

Also, the stats made no reference to the picture... well, why on earth should it? THE PICTURE IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE! Its almost IMPOSSIBLE to miss it. I mean, you have to scroll down to see all of the stats, so you really have no excuse for missing it.

And thank you Andy, for that completely non-enlightening comment with an obligatory reference to ARC and your freakin hate crimes against Americans. Shouldnt you be somewhere trying, and failing, at making sterotypical jokes?

Erm i dont think he actualy mentioned you were from america.

*looks at what Andy said*

nope doesnt mention it
