Hi all, I've noticed that there aren't any quizzes about this forum these days. Therefore, I'm starting one. There will be 17 quesions to prevent ties, and I might do more if it generates interest. I apologize in advance if any of these questions are too easy, too difficult, wrong, or badly worded. The winner gets to call themselves an official Robot Wars geek.
To kick us off,
1) Name all of the walkerbots who competed in Series 3 and state which one got set on fire.
Good luck everyone!
the walkers were:
Miss Struts,Stomp,Mammoth,Anarachnid
the one who was set on fire was: Mammoth
:D
jack
Thanks for kicking off the answers Jack, you've got it.
Jack: 1
2) Every robot to ever beat Derek faced a certain robot in Series 6. What was it?
bigger brother
Correct again.
Jack: 2
After the next question I'll leave it for a few hours so that others can find out about it.
3) Which robot has lost the most battles in robot wars?
Napalm?
Firestorm?
it is in fact behemoth with 15 defeats
look it up on robot wars wikia :P
p.s poin for me 8)
Yes, it was Behemoth.
Jack: 2
Lian: 1
4) Hmm.... Name three middleweight teams/robots that competed in more than one competetion, but are not Typhoon.
Not Typhoon eh...
Then:
Steel Sandwich
Hard Cheese
Doom (then Doom Too)
Yep, they're all good. I'd have also accepted Team Roaming Robots and Team Mammoth.

Lian: 1
Jordan: 1
5) Two robots from the Extreme 2 middleweight competiton were from the same English county. Which were they, and name the county.
Broadsword, Malc 1.5, Hertfordshire
Yep, another correct answer.
Jack: 2
Lian: 1
Jordan: 2
6) Name five robots with rollcages. They can be any weight. Btw guys, it has to have a rollcage. Body shape alone doesn't count.
Clawed Hopper (HW), Drumroll (FW), Herbinator (HW), MIghty Mouse (HW, the series 7 version had some kind of Rollcage), Platypus (US AW).
Sorry Mark, I meant Robot Wars robots. Clawed Hopper and Mighty Mouse are fine, I'll give you Herbinator as well even though I didn't think of it. You need just two more.
Okay, give me Behemoth(The plastic bits combined with the shape = rollcage), and ROCS (S7).
Both are robots I didn't think of. Behemoth is fine, ROCS tetchy but I'll give you it.

7) Which three teams entered the most different robots into the UK Series? State the team, the number of robots, and all of the robots. Robots can be any weight but must have qualified for the wars if heavyweight.
Team Pants(5): Panda Monium, Pants(AW), Big Pants, Hot Pants, Thunderpants.
Team Firestorm(6): Groundhog, Fire Storm, Firestorm II, Firestorm 3, Firestorm IV, Firestorm 5
Team 259(5): Vector of Armageddon(FW), Corporal Punishment, Wowot, 259, 259(MW)
Big Pants failed to qualify, so it isn't Team Panda.
I wasn't going to allow team firestorm but as I made a miscalculation myself on Team Roaming Robots it seems unfair.
Team 259 is missing a robot from their total of 6, and the final team has 5 robots.
There are actually 2 teams with 5 robots, I'll allow either.
Team 259 also entered a different Corporal Punishment in S3 and Armadillo in the featherweights in series 2...the other team possibly could be Team Pussycat/Cold Fusion with copper Bodyhammer, Bodyhammer with saw and chisel, Pussycat with illegal blade, blue Pussycat with four tooth blade, differently shaped blue Pussycat with two tooth/double blades, KatNip, Kitty?
Yep, I was looking for Armadillo. As for the other, it's not Team Cold Fusion/Kat.
I'll have the numerous Plunderbirds as my answer.
I'm not sure, the first 3 were very similar to each other and so were the last two. In fact, I may discount the Team Firestorm answer on that basis, but we'll wait and see.
There are two teams who entered five seperate robots that were not incarnations of each other.
team typhoon? typhoon (hw) typhoon thunder and lightning (mw cluster) oh and there was a lightweight and a featherwight wasnt there?
Well they did get on RW with at least five very different robots :P
Was it Team Torque? They had two different All Torques - the series 2 one with the wooden base that caught fire, and the series 3/first world championship one that left the series with far more holes than it entered with after an unfortunate Razer encounter, Small Torque in series 4 with the disc and smoke, Fighting Torque in Extreme with the kilt and buttocks, series 5 Hippobotomus with the sandpit bodyshell and strangely ineffective weapon, and Martyn Sloss from the team also had Bot Out Of Hell in series 5 I believe.
Team Typhoon was on my list. As for Bot out of Hell and Team Torque, I didn't even know that, but I'll give it to you.

8 ) What is the only other team to have entered five completely seperate robots into Robot Wars? A clue, none of them are heavyweights. :lol:
Team Beast has entered 5 robots differnt one ;)
only qualified twice tho LOL
To give you a clue guys, one of this team's machines was entered in two series under different names. There are still 4 other robots, and they are all lighter than heavyweight.
Team BlazerBotics?
Chroma (AW)
Hades (AW)
Alpha (FW)
Flybot (FW)
Gladiator/G2 (FW)
?
Yes! You got the answer.

9) Name all the walkerbots that entered in any UK series of Robot Wars that were not heavyweight. For clarity, this means what their actual weight classed them as, not what competiton they fought in. There are 5.
Neoteric
Stomp
Featherweight Mammoth
Lightweight Mammoth
And a stab in the dark at Anarachnid
Well done Jordan, that's the answer
Jack: 2
Lian: 1
Jordan: 3
Mark: 1
Joey: 1

10) Name all 11 robots that have never lost a battle in any series of Robot Wars. This includes non-heavyweights and foreign competitors.
Tentomoushi
Jim Struts
Miss Struts
Aaargh
DTK
Typhoon
Typhoon Thunder (when competing as a lightweight alone)
Slippery Strana
Kick Robut
Beef Cake
Tut Tut (from the US attempt at Robot Wars)
Slicer (from Dutch series 1)
Scar (won but broke down)
Ultor (won but pulled out)
Pain (qualified, appeared on TV but timed out for Gauntlet)
Parthian Shot (same reasons as Pain)
Technically you could also include Barry, Grunt, Uglybot, Detonator, Plunderbird 1, WYSIWYG, Vector Of Armageddon, Krayzee Tokyo, Psychosprout, the first Elvis, Eubank The Mouse, Caliban, Piece de Resistance, Death Trak, Tantrum, Challenger, the first Milly Ann Bug, Schumey, Ron, ROCS 1, Limpet, Rampage, Sting, Rottweiler, Broot, Penetrator, Phoenix, Mega Hurts, Angel Of Death (which incidentally was one of those robots I strangely liked :P) and Tender Caress as they were all eliminated in the gauntlet or trials, and never fought a one on one battle in those forms.
didnt typhoon lose in a anialator?
That was Typhoon 2 Jack.
Well done Joey, you named several I forgot.

11) List all the Robot Wars featherweights in order of how well they performed. Then take away all featherweights that appeared more than once or entered another robot. What are the top three featherweights?
DTK (unless another heavyweight counts as another robot)
The Demolisher
Beef Cake
?
depends on what you class as being well performing I suppose.
BTW I liked Angel of Death too Joey :P it looked cool. Along with a lot of obscure robots, most of which never met their full potential IMO
Demolisher appeared twice, and DTK also entered Dantomkia, and Beef-Cake entered Zap!.
For saying how well they did, put winners first, then runners up, then other finalists and then ones that didn't make it out of the heats.
RC Warrior
Bugs
Sat'Arn?
RC Warrior is right, but not the other two.
