...DamnI thought shuffle pads were closer to tracks than wheels, you learn something new every day I suppose.
It does kind of sound Welsh when you look at it, actually :P

Thanks for your comments on the battles guys, Im just glad theyre not absolute pants!
Tonights battle for the challenge belt sees Joey McConnell return to the challenge belt competition with a different robot- Niddhog.Lets take a look at how Joey and Paul have done previously in this competition...
Joey was the first challenger, but with No Objections, which dealt with Tornado to take the belt and flipped Cyrilium to kingdom come, but was flipped out of the arena by no other than Nitro-Gene 4.0, Pauls previous entry into the Challenge Belt!After throwing No Objections OOTA Nitro-Gene defeated a new version of Cyrilium, though only on a nailbiting judges decision.However, it was then third time UNlucky as despite putting up a good fight early on Crimson Thunder took control and pitted Nitro-Gene. Almost immediately Paul took his revenge by returning with MeCannibal 2.0 and re-taking the belt, will he be able to keep the belt away from Niddhog?Were about to find out...
Representing the house robot team we have the robot guard dog Growler accompanied by the ever-brutal Matilda...
MeCannibal is a 110kg shufflebot with a deadly spinner-ring that proved itself by dismantling Crimson Thunder in its last bout.
Niddhog is a Razer-esque machine with a powerful looking 3000psi crusher that has the potential to deliver 9 tonnes of force- look out Paul!
Booth 1:Paul Cuomo
Booth 2:Joey McConnell
3,2,1,ACTIVATE!
Niddhog goes straight in on the attack, getting its forks under MeCannibal and lifting it up into the air! MeCannibal keeps spinning, but cant do anything as Niddhogs crusher comes down on it!The titanium armour crumples, but Niddhog doesnt get a grip and drops MeCannibal to the floor. MeCannibal comes round on the attack itself, the ring spinning wildly!
CRASH!
The 4mm Hardox side panel flies off Niddhog and MeCannibal spins up again, this time hitting the forks and getting lifted into the air once again!Niddhog comes down on top with the crusher and this time gets right into one of the shuffle pads, immobilising one side of MeCannibal! Niddhog doesnt let go and hits the pit release tyre, but MeCannibal falls off the crusher and manages to shuffle into Niddhogs rear end!
CRASH!
Another panel flies off into the distance and Niddhog isnt going anywhere fast, as MeCannibals weapon as gotten stuck into one of Niddhogs armour panels! Refbot comes in to split them up, and Niddhog gets under MeCannibal again, crushing into the bodywork once more, spearing one of the weapon motors!MeCannibal falls of the crusher and shuffles in a circle getting a shove at the side of Niddhog, heaving it into matildas CPZ!Matilda attacks with the flywheel, hitting Niddhogs rear and sending it cartwheeling across the arena! Niddhog self-rights and readies it self for another attack, but MeCannibal is too far away and the battle is in its dying moments.
CEASE!
At the end of that intense battle the judges decide that MeCannibal was moving on one pad only and could move in circles, so was basically immobile. Niddhog took heaps of damage but was still fully mobile at the end and therefore takes the challenge belt!
WAAAAHEY! AgainGood fight Paul though, that thing does some damage.
Good fight as well, Liam, Ill overlook the misspelling of Nidhoggs name seeing as I won :P
Oops , sorry. :blush:I wont get it wrong again!
Well done Joey - DAMM YOU AND YOUR CURSED ROBOT!But in the battle, it says one of my WEAPON motors was killed. So should I just have continued fighting, but with reduced weapon power?
Im not bothered if you need to rewrite the fight because of this, but Im just confused.
Nah, its okay, I have a habit of calling things I create weird names.
And Paul, hes not cursed, just misunderstood![]()
