Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
I think the first collision between MDU and CS should be known as the Kiss Of Death :proud:
Okay, for fighting PPE, Ill just attack it, Im not worried about its weapons, I can out push it if it comes to the cruch of having no weapon again, Ill drop the RPM on the spinning shell down to 2500rpm for this battle which produces about 65-70kjs, enough to damage and win with out damaging myself like in the prvious battle.
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
WOOHOO! 2 Hector Robots on the trot!! **Does a special edition of the Wooty Dance**
Tacky Tactics against Mr One Hit Wonder:
As Aaron said earlier, I cant do much to it (can anything??). Therefore, I will try and do the below list of unrealistic events to try and coax a victory out of PPE.
1) Lure MDU towards arena wall
2) Dodge MDU as it gets nearer using my manouverability.
3) Make MDU hit arena wall, slowing the spinner down.
4) Slide under MDU whilst the spinner is still slow.
5) Flip MDU, and pray it goes OOTA.
If the above list dies not work, then PPE will immediately drive into the pit!
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
Great fights again, Steven! I was on the edge of my seat with the Crankshafted-MDU fight!
I predict that Tengu IV will immobilise Razer with strikes on its side. PPE will put up a good fight against MDU, but I think MDUs superior destructability will win.
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
Id suggest modifying your tactics a little Dan. If MDU hits the wall, the wallll disintergrate allowing you to easily toss it through the hole:proud:
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
SEMI-FINAL 2
ROUND 2 LINE-UP
Razer (4)(me) Vs Tengu 4 (28)
Here i will charge under it at the start crush into it show it to the house robots the introduce it to Mr.pit
Platinum Pure Evil (3) Vs Mass Disctruction Ultimate
Well the number 3 seed is going to go bye bye
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
razer: relativly soft armour and relativly exposed wheels, i think i may be faster, so if i am it should be able to succeed, be very careful, always spin so it takes damage if it tries to get underneath me.
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
Once more, umpteen €œthank you€Âs to all! :) Now, we have 2 places left in the Final, and four robots who want them filled...one wonders how we€™ll get round this dilemma...ah well, we€™ll figure something out after they fight :proud:
SEMI-FINAL 2
ROUND 2
BATTLE 1
RAZER (4) Vs TENGU 4 (28)
House Robots- Shunt and Mr Psycho
Roboteers Stand By......
3...2...1...
ACTIVATE!!!!!!!!!!
Right at the start, Razer shoots straight for Tengu 4, wanting to slide under the full-body spinner and grab hold before it can get up to speed...however, the No.28 seed has already dashed right the way up to the top end of the arena, shell happily whirring faster and faster!! Marty prepares to send the No.4 seed off after its rival...when Alex€™s machine shoots down the arena, straight towards the former World Champion!!! Quickly changing direction, Razer manages to dodge the attack from Tengu and tries a head-on charge to try and stop the shell from spinning!! However, the No.28 seed simply zips right round the former RW champion and clips the No.4 seed right in the back!!! With both machines flung away from each other on contact, Marty guides his machine away from the re-rotating Tengu and down the arena, into the Pit Release Button!! But as the special segment of the floor starts to sink, the No.28 seed dashes right down the arena and smacks into Razer€™s side, just as it turns to get away from the Tyre!!! Now two nasty gashes have been put in the legendary British competitor!!! With his opponent€™s shell spinning back up again, Marty quickly steers the No.4 seed away from Tengu and back up to the arena!! However, just as the former World Champion reaches the centre of the ring, Alex€™s ferocious full-body spinner shoots up the war zone and wallops right into the rear of the former RW champ!!! Both seeded machines are once more flung away from each other - Tengu towards the top end, Razer towards the bottom!! With the rear €œtail€ part of the crusher looking pretty mangled and the No.28 seed coming over for another attack, Marty swings the No.4 seed round and charges head-on towards its rival!! This seemed to work against The Revolutionist in the 2nd World Championship, if you€™ll remember!! However, with the ex-RW champion zipping towards it, Tengu swings right around Razer€™s side and successfully gets a blow to the side of the machine!!! With the spinner still pretty much in action and its opponent seemingly stunned, the No.28 seed smacks into the side a second time!!! The No.4 seed swings round to meet the full-body spinner as it tries a third attack, although the controls seem pretty twitchy now!!! Accidentally taking the bait, Tengu slides right up the front of the wondrous wedge...and quickly shoots back off as the crusher slowly starts heading towards the top of the No.28 seed€™s lid!!! Angered at its enemy€™s escape, Razer starts chasing down the revving full-body spinner, with Marty trying to adjust to the twitchy responses from his entry!! However, as the No.4 seed starts to close in, the whirling Tengu swings back right round the former World Champ and successfully smacks the back of the PTT2 Grand Finalist!!! The force from this blow manages to knock Razer€™s scarred side round to face the swirling No.28 seed...who isn€™t very far away!!! Marty tries to guide his last PTT entry away...but Tengu manages to give the side of the ex-World Champion another clout!!! With the shell still spinning and its enemy seemingly stunned again, the No.28 seed gives the side of Razer yet another bash...and then shoots away!!! Marty tries to get the No.4 seed to follow...but it won€™t!!! The former RW champion isn€™t going anywhere!!! Have the wheels been jammed or was something simply shaken loose inside?? Whatever it is, it isn€™t helping Marty at all!!! Feeling it best to leave it be, Alex gives Tengu a rest in the arena centre, as Refbot trundles over to count down the battered and beaten Razer!!!
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!!!!
Wanting the House Robots to make SOME sort of appearance in this Semi-Final :proud:, Shunt rolls merrily out of his CPZ towards Razer!! The House Bot slides his rear scoop comfortably under the sliced side, grapples onto the infamous crushing claw and quite happily pushes the mighty No.4 seed across the arena and into the Pit!!!
CEASE!!!!!
Razer just couldn€™t cut it! The No.4 seed is given a sharp exit out of its 3rd PTT!
TENGU 4 (28) GOES THROUGH TO THE GRAND FINAL!!!
-------------------------------------------------
SEMI-FINAL 2
ROUND 2
BATTLE 2
MASS DISCTRUCTION ULTIMATE Vs PLATINUM PURE EVIL (3)
House Robots- Matilda and Dead Metal
Roboteers Stand By......
3...2...1...
ACTIVATE!!!!!!!!!!
Terrified, but with a plan, Danny reverses Platinum Pure Evil backwards to try and lure Mass Disctruction Ultimate into the wall and kill itself!! However, the No.3 seed seems to have forgotten just how quick the VFT3 champion really is!!! At 12mph, the frightening walker is practically sprinting across the arena (well, compared to some other walkers, anyway :proud:)!!! Quite flabbergasted, Danny swings Pure Evil round to flee the PTT newcomer when it gets over...but the 8mph top speed proves too slow!!! Just as the No.3 seed swings round, MDU makes it over and smacks right into one of the wheels!!!
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
The PTT2 bronze medallist crashes against the arena wall...and bounces back into the 2500rpm shell!!!
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
This time, the fearsome full-body spinner crashes into the side of the flipping wedge!!! The No.3 seed smacks off the arena fence again, but manages to avoid being flung back into MDU€™s shell again!! Discovering a very weak signal still coming from his machine, Danny tries to swing his flipper round towards the VFT3 champion...but the low teeth of the whirling walker simply tear into it!!!
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
MDU struts away...and Danny€™s machine remains static!!! Last season€™s bronze medallist won€™t be visiting the podium again this War!!! Wanting the Welshman put out of his misery, Refbot trundles over and starts counting out the infamous PTT2 giant-killer - Platinum Pure Evil!!!
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!!!!
Hungry after seven fights of nearly NO House Robot involvement, the famished Matilda and Dead Metal shoot across the arena to feast on the remains of Pure Evil...but Aaron feels that PPE and Dan have both suffered more than enough...and decides to put the BBC bots in their place!!! Shell back in action, the VFT3 champion scuttles over to Matilda (who is just aiming her disc €œtail€Â) and crashes right into one of her wheels...
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
Not only is the House Robot€™s wheel pretty much tattered, but a section the fibreglass body shell has been torn loose!!!
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
The wondrous walker gives Matilda a second blow!!! Small flecks from the torn tyre start flying across the arena...and the flapping section of her armour has been torn right off!!! :proud: The House Robot twirls round in rage, but this just invites MDU in for another onslaught...
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
Shell meets head...and one of the furious raised tusks is ripped clean away!!! :proud: Dan€™s certainly feeling happier now!!! However, just as the PTT newcomer backs off for another attack, Dead Metal dashes over, saw arm extended, and tries to wrap his claws around the spinning shell...
CRRRRRRRASH!!!!!
Now the silver scorpion€™s in mortal danger!!! The mechanism for the claws has pretty much been snapped, the pincers themselves are slashed and torn...and the circular saw has completely shattered!!! :proud:
CEASE!!!!!
As the saw shards scatter on the stage, the judges feel it best to stop the fight for safety reasons. (mainly because Professor Sharkey nearly had a piece of the disc greet his glasses!)
Platinum Pure Evil proves little more than a forgery! The No.3 seed doesn€™t prove evil enough, but still gets to head back home in one wounded, but whole package! :)
MASS DISCTRUCTION ULTIMATE GOES THROUGH TO THE GRAND FINAL!!!
And so, at last, at long, long, looooooooooong last, we finally have our final four machines!!! :proud:
1) Newcomer ULTRAVERTER (Tom Roper has beaten 13th seed 259, 29th seed Slammer 2, Battle Raptor, 30th seed Tornado and Heir to Black Panther)
2) No.1 seed THE BUSINESS ENDS (Hector Gilbert has beaten Dantomkia, AWOL, Stratus 2, Disctruction EVO and The Crashing Bore)
3) No.28 seed TENGU 4 (Alex Holt has beaten Kat 3, Blade Runner, 12th seed Wheely Big Cheese, 8th seed Son of Ripper and 4th seed Razer)
4) Newcomer MASS DISCTRUCTION ULTIMATE (Aaron Knight has beaten Vlad the Impaler, 32nd seed Firestorm 4, 16th seed Behemoth, CrankShafted and 3rd seed Platinum Pure Evil)
Many, many congratulations to our 4 Finalists :proud: and commiserations to our fallen Semi-Finalists. :) Hope your bots€™ll be back for PTT4 and prove just as deadly as they are now :)...actually, don€™t. That€™s one hell of a scary thought...:proud:
LATER ON:
- PTT3 ROLE OF HONOUR
- PTT3 - THE ROAD TO ARMAGEDDON
- GRAND FINAL DRAW
We€™re now only four fights away from finding our next PTT grand champion. It may have taken longer than it took the BBC to show RW5...but we€™ve finally made it :)
Enjoy Semi 2? Any thoughts on the Final?
Thank you :)
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
What a Surprise! :proud: That was a fantastic battle, and its a priviledge to lose to Aarons Superbot!
MDU TO WIN!
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
Great stuff as ever Mr Steve :) I cant wait for the final! :) Whatever way, I think this is MDUs war. I doubt the top seed will defend its title anyway, and Tengu may actually prove a surprise here :) UltraVerter has seemed quite quiet sneaking through to me, many that will spring a surprise or two as well :)
Here is a little idea of how the overall places will stand:
4th) The Bussiness Ends (1)
3rd) Tengu 4 (28)
2nd) UltraVerter
1st) Mass Disctruction Ultimate
Pussycat Tribute Tournament 3...continued!
Once more, thanks, guys! :) Now, before I start the Countdown to Carnage, Id like to make a statement about the PTT:
When I joined the RW Forum in August 2002, my 1st Fan Fic tourney (the Steven Superstar Tournament) was basically a flop. I never even got Round 1 finished! However, round about early to mid Autumn, I decided to try again. This time, I would get the job done!
When it came to giving the new tourney a name, I remembered the Forum€™s great amount of condolences sent after Pussycat driver David Gribbles death the previous year and how I didnt contribute (not knowing how to post!). So I decided to name the tournament after him as my way of a tribute to his short but admirable life.
The first Pussycat Tribute Tournament consisted of 12 people entering a total of 72 robots. Many people giving their views and opinions on the fights and according to one person, it was the largest completed tournament in Forum history! (I doubt this myself, but could anyone else clarify this?)
The PTT2 started round about wintertime €˜02, with 16 people entering a whopping total of 96 machines, an even larger amount than the last tourney! During the course of the PTT2, my writing improved and more detailed and exciting battles were produced, making the tourney, in my view, even better than before. By the time the tourney drew to a close (with one of my finest ever fights IMO), the PTT had managed to establish itself as one of the top guns in vapourbot writing.
Now, since August-time €™03, PTT3 has been raging on. The fights have been getting even longer, even more exciting and (most importantly) even more liked by other people! :proud: Thanks to all the support you€™ve given me, the tourney marched on in leaps and bounds, even through some of its toughest times (Prelim time springs to mind) and has finally reached its last few miles :)
As the Final draws nearer and nearer, Id like to take this opportunity to thank EVERYONE who has entered, predicted and, above all, made these tournaments as successful as they have been.
Thank you all again!:)
Now, we pay homage to all of this tournaments€™ entrants with our PTT3 Role of Honour!
