tom please, you dont need to explain to me what i find an exciting robot. You own one of my old machines of course. I said before i'm more interested in how far my robot gets than how much i please a crowd as im personally not the E.O. If im watching then yes i wanna see damage, mayhem etc... but im also talking from a competing point of view, i aint their to please a crowd, they dont pay my build or repair costs. I have watched all the vids of the event on youtube numerous times and it did nothing for me. I like to fight a robot that has a great risk of smashing me up.

from the vids i watched i found it not exciting (boring is a bit harsh), it was limiting on damage. it looks very creative and unique looking so fair play for gary for his creativeness, looks nice but that doesnt mean i found it exciting to watch. i saw damage to hdpe but my 5mm steel electric lifting wedge would push it all over the place with ease in my opinion.

Exciting is LS4,360,hornet,Savage evo to name a few. any robot that stands up to these is also exciting for me whether its a box, flipper

is their a problem to voicing your opinions on another robot on this forum??

you obviously never heard the reaction when my wedge hit hornet full on and ended up with hornet out the arena or being hit by ls2 numerous times before pushing it in the pit.I have a vids of these somewhere if interested in hearing the crowd shouting pit! pit! pit!

Wedges are boring when theirs alot in one fight, i understand that. But also alot of flippers is aswell. it would be good to hear what so called box owners think on this.

this event was very bad timing for me as well as way too far, (baby on the way etc......) hopefully at robochallenges next event i will prove my point that wedges are worthy competitors, mine has a electric lifter but thats for my advantage not a crowd pleaser.
i have gone back to a reliable old design but added a electric lifter as all i want to do is win, nothing else otherwise i wouldnt of sold u savage evo
