Its 0. Most of my robots are. I hate having wide turning circles.

[pcbore]

Thats fair enough, but I dont like having to guess with stats as 9/10 Ill guess wrong

[pcbore]

There are 14 people entered, so I need another two. Any takers?

Mat R, you still have two BIIBId robots (Ankle Biter and Deep Impact IIRC)

Chris M you have one BIIBId robot (Crush 2)

Nick, so far you only have Parasite entered, but I still have the stats for ABR. Do you want to enter that as well?

Also, does anyone want a list of real robots Ive found they can use?

[dinowarrior]

Is this concerning the things you mentioned earlier. Because...

1-4mm Hardox
2-8 tons of downward force when it comes in for the kill.

Anything else?

[pcbore]

Should be good now.

The stats for ABR are different now anyway. Ill finish rendering the damn thing and Ill put it up for you. (So yes, it is entering).

Ive changed my mind about Parasite though. Id like to replace it with VGer.

VGer stats:
mass:
Stainless Steel Frame - 20.43866 (1 cm thick predominantly, 2cm on the underbelly and parts of the lifting fork.)
Titanium Armor - 26.14416 (top - .764 cm, bottom - .508 cm)
Wheels - included in the Ti Armor estimate, .635 cm thick, solid, rubber treads
S28-400 magmotors x 2 - 6.182
S28-300 magmotor - 2.500
Flywheel - ~10.000 kg, mostly in the teeth.
Maxtor controller - ~1.000 kg
EV Warrior - 1.472 kg
Husqvarna 3120XP - 10.409
NiMh 24v Battlepacks x 3 - 3.6
TOTAL - 81.746 KG

Weapon - Circular flywheel, 8.4 hp (6.2 kW), spins at 1:2 reduction for 5000 rpm. If Aarons desperate for a kJ estimate, I can give him one. Its pretty modest though. I was aiming for a weapon that wouldnt break after one hit, like many others in the tournament probably should.

Frame - Stainless 400 Steel
Armor - Titanium (thickness on the mass chart)
Srimech - Lifting plate can self-right the robot in any position in 1-2 flips. NOT INVERTIBLE. Expect a motion diagram of the robot self-righting on my avatar soon.
Wheels - 15 mph, like 90% of the other robots youll ever see. 2 S24 mags power it at 24 volts. 60-amp continuous cell discharge, which is pretty good for single packs weighing only 1.2 kg each.
Clearance - HUGE. 6.985 cm mostly, although the wheels and the rear wedge make full contact with the ground obviously.

Strengths -
--Internal Combustion Engine has an EV Warrior starter motor, in case it stalls during a fight.
--Powerful flywheel with adjustible height. Rides at 5.04 cm when level, minimum height - 3.81 cm, maximum height - 6.34, doesnt matter too much though.
--Lifter can LIFT any ~100 kg robot, and can flip some opponents, depending on the angle I get, and the distribution of their weight.
--Theres enough extra weight (15 kg worth) for (1) a robot trap that lengthens the rear lifter significantly (2) ablative 2024 ali armor (which either covers the wheels or the robots top), or (3), replacing the flywheel, a stainless steel scoop for the front, which Ill likely never need *glares at Aaron*

Weaknesses -
--Not a good pushybot.
--Certain spinner designs will probably be able to stop it no matter what (Im thinking cage spinners on this one).
--Top Heavy to a large extent, though its wide enough and distributed enough to not affect turning or driving, itll usually land upside-down if flipped.

And once ABR is done (sheesh, the thing is the hardest thing Ive ever rendered), Ill fit it on the profile with its teammate.

Hang abouts... You ARE aware the limit has gone up to 4 robots, right?

[pcbore]

Id also like to announce it looks like my Internet is fixed. *crash*

[pcbore]

The grand list of entrents:

Alex - All heavies and Blizzard are fine. I dont think Blizzard qualifies for a weight limit. For the real FW and LW, do you want me to find some random ones or do you want to find some yourself?

Andy - Everythings good. Theres enough info on Blazer, so its in.

Chris C - Heavies are fine, but you havent entered any other weights. Same deal with Alex, do you want to make/find your own, or just let me chose some?

Chris M - All clear.

Dan - All good.

Dave S - Also all good.

Martyn - Heavies are wooty, but you havent entered any other weights. Same deal as with Alex and Chris C.

Matt R - Sorry but Ive found that El Persistance is also BIIBId along with Ankle Biter and Deep Impact. If youre reading, youre running out of time to fix these.

Nick - VGer is in, and Ive found I no longer have Parasites stats anyway for some reason. I know youve been having trouble with lose work recently, so no preassure. Do you want some real machines entered?

Richard - All fine here.

Scott - Still plenty of time for Evil Scotsman and Max.

Steve - Full of Scottish Woot.

Matty H - Talking to him right now and his entries are coming.
