Mark, please try and cooperate with people...please...
Can I point out Mark, we ALL know what were doing, even Liam, who hasnt been around as long as me or others knows what he is doing.
But lets make an inqusition into the pair of you, as you both joined at around the same point:
Liam: Started off bad with his annoying internet slang, but got around that to make 2 very good tornuments and is now a fine addition.
Mark: Started off reminding fiarly experienced people what to do, opened a tornument of his own and then entered other peoples designs without permission and was annoying - now...hes still annoying. Please Mark, just calm down.
Were back!
The next draw is something of a very interesting curio...
Mark, the increasingly annoying person takes on Martijn, creator of Flick of the Wrist, holder of not one, but TWO challenge belts in...
Cyrilium 2 v Liar 2!
Eliminator 2/32:
Cyrilium 2 v Liar 2
Cyrilium 2 has gone through lots of changes in the How Can I Improve thread.It once had a spinning disc accompanying its flipper, but Mark ditched it and now Cyrilium 2 steps up to the arena for its place in Robot SMASH!!
Liar 2 is another powerful flipper.Mark is confident, but Martijn is far more experienced and his vapourbots (including Liar 2) have proved themselves worthy.Cyrilium, on the other hand is a brand new robot, so this will be interesting...
Booth 1: Mark Elam
Booth 2: Martijn M Benschop
5,4,3,2,1,EXTERMINATE!
Cyrilium heads in on the offensive, aiming to attack Liar 2 from the front!But Mark drives straight up onto Martijns wedge!
FLIP!
Cyrilium somersualts and lands on the side-wedge!
FLIP!
Over it goes, crashing down on its back!
Mark quickly fires the flipper to get Cyrilium back into the fight, but he lands on the flipper again!
FLIP!
1000psi is powerful, at least enough to kiss Cyrilium goodbye!
It sails OOTA, and this battle ends as quickly as it started!
THE END HAS ARRIVED!
Liar 2 progresses to the heat semi-final while Marks only vapour bites the... er...Camera tracks!
Major problem:
But Mark drives straight up onto Martijns wedge!
More like:
And Martijns mighty machine drives straight onto Marks Flipper!
There is no way I could loose by an OOTA. Liar 2 would get on top of me each time.
Mark, there is a difference between pointing out technicalities that would have changed the course of the fight, and being a bad loser.
That is a technicality.
Since the fight was either rigged because Martijn paid him to rig it, or Liam was angry at me, I demand the fight be redone, but with a different outcome.

Mark, that is precisely what I mean by being a bad loser...
I dont have the energy to go into detail, Ill just say that if you act like an arse, dont get shocked when other people treat you like an arse.
All Im saying is this:
There is no way he could get me on his flipper if I am charging at him with my front pointed towards him.
His front area is smaller than yours, so if he was driving towards you at the same time, it is very possible.
Front wedges do penetrate the other from time to time, but what usually happens is that both ground clearances cancel out and they halt. This time, Liar 2 was able to get under Cyrilium 2. It could have been otherwise.
