No wooty review today either

...Gotcha:proud: I now bing a wooty review of the house robot rebellion:)

Melee 1

And the fight begins with three robots homing in on poor old Shunt. Firestorm tosses him over immediately. Firestorm: God knows - Shunt: 0
There was some more running around, and Cassius Chrome was pretty much set upon by Kat 3 and Bigger Brother. Panic Attack went around looking yellow but not really doing much apart from getting on Firestorms wedge at some point.
Bigger Brother made a spirited attempt to be the first to OOTA a house robot but didnt manage. Then Firestorm, after lunging at Refbot who cunningly moved, drove into the pit. Then Kat 3, missing Refbot as Bigger Brother slamed him one, beaned Bigger Brother instead and so the competitors finally started fighting. After some more of this, Bigger Brother drove into the pit as well. With all this House Robot attacking, this has to be... Fight of the night:)

Winners: The viewers:)

Melee 2

Dantomkia and Behemoth had a little 1-1 as did Pussycat and King B. There was some manouvering, Dantomkia got into a good position and out went Behemoth. Then Dantomkia went for the limping King B and sent it to say hello to Behemoth. Good to watch, but a little formulaeic. Oh and Stu? You go tell Craig a thing or two:proud:

Winners: Dantomkia and Pussycat

Dantomkia vs Panic Attack

Dantomkia has a very good driver and a great flipper. Panic Attack has an unexperienced driver and no srimech. Surely there was only one way this could go? And indeed it did. Panic Attack soon turned over and thrown OOTA, then it was Dead Metals turn! After a few failed flips trying to emulate Gravity, Dantomkia somehow managed to get Dead Metal beached under Growler. Both robots immobilised, after what Mike was saying about PAs house robot attacking being foolish. Pot, kettle, anyone? :P

Winner: Me. Oh, and Dantomkia:proud:

Pussycat vs Kat 3

A rehash of their last fight in the Iron Maidens... Kat 3 had problems catching the more agile Pussycat with the axe, Pussycat had few problems catching Kat 3 with the saw. The armour was torn, buckled and scratched and there was only one way it could go. Best proper fight of the night:)

Dantomkia vs Pussycat

Dantomkia started well on top and looked set to hurl the trouble Pussycat OOTA... Then it broke down. Meh. I hate it when a robot breaks down in the middle of a promising fight. Still, there was Cassius Chrome and Psycho needing a seeing to, so Pussycat happily obliged:) Only problem being, both robots could shove the cat around easily so it was on the run for most of the time and ended in the pit. Good try anyway Stu:)

Winner: Pussycat!

And so Pussycat wins the house robot rebllion. Well done Stu:proud:

*Someone whispers in Franks ear*

Oh sorry. That was the all stars. My bad.

*Runs*

And so, Franks review of the All Stars fight between Dantomkia and Panic Attack insults Panic Attack.

Did I? I said the driver was unexperienced... Which compared to many he is. I said Pa had no srimech... Undeniable fact. I just didnt see any way PA could beat Dantomkia.

Just because I ont think robot A can beat robot B, it doesnt mean I think its bad.

*through gritted teeth*

That...wasnt...FUNNY!!!

he did,nt make any jokes. leave the review alone

or insults

Yes he did. The title!

you know the big, long aerial that was mounted on dantomkia semmed to be a good object for pussycat to sink her claws into....maybe thats what happened...

But the aerial was still attached to Dantomkia when it had stopped, and didnt seem to be broken.

The first fight reminded me of the Flipper Frenzy in Extreme 1, which I thought was better than the actual House Robot Rebellion in that Extreme. If Behemoth and Gravity (or indeed, the robots from tonights show) had been in that one, the HRs would have had no chance!

The link had been taken out.

Damn those links. Good enough show anyway. I like Dantomkia a lot. The world champs next week looks very good from the preview, even though there are only 12 robots.

QUOTE: Did I? I said the driver was unexperienced...

Me, fail English.....thats UNPOSSIBLE! :proud:

Still, PAs lack of Sri-mech was a dangerous decision....I said in my review....errr, elsewhere (Well, on Panic Attacks forum actually.....talk about asking for trouble, you may not see me from now on! :proud: ) that NO skirt can be 100% effective, and yes, I EVEN include Biohazard (US) in that, just to prevent this thread from being dragged off topic with talk of skirts!!
(Hmmmm...thats the first time Ive said that sentance and meant it in a robotic sense! :proud: )

Good review though, now, did you see the Annihilathor in the end? Review-me-do of that?? :)

just a mistake chris. everyone knows it was a mistake. he did,nt mean it so its fine

Hi Ewan, yes, you are correct. The link did indeed come out again. Due to a broken retaining arm that holds the link in. It was broken at the end of the Gravity fight and it was unrepairable during the time that I had.

Stu drove very well and he deserved the win.

I didnt think that the first 4 way melee was cut right. It showed Dantomkia doing all of the work. Stu and PC did a lot of damage to King B. Stu should get a lot of credit for that.

if PA had a Sri Mech it still wouldnt have mattered. Theirs is a slow electric actuator. They wouldnt have been able to self right in time. They did have it with them but decided not to fit it due to its slowness.

PA fought very well and they did in fact get Dantomkia up on their forks once. I thought that it was punture time but we got away with it.

Mike.

Dazzy thanks for sticking up for me, but the title WAS intentional.

JP was very rude to Pussycat throughout.

In the melee, he totally ignored Pussycat all together, and concentrated on Dantomkia, despite the fact that Pussycat was maulering King B. Then he said PC did absoulutly nothing to get through even though he had.

In the next battle, JP ignored Pussycat again. He ignored the fact that TWO pieces of armour were ripped clean off Kat 3, and even missed the fact that Kats axe was bent, EVEN when it was shown extremely close up.

And in the final, he STILL ignored Pussycat, despite Stu saying what they had done to King B earlier he STILL said they did nothing.

Does JP have something against Pussycat?

Hes only jealous - and rude
