Time for a rant

Another weekend spent in my garage fixing robots that have been flipped out after cease (Tiny Hurtz) or attacked when immobilised and at the side of the arena ( 4 4 Toon). I do not mind repairing damage caused in battle but its about time people think about the cost in time and money from continuing to attack after cease or pounding on a dead robot, and no it wasn't a house robot in either case.

i'm very sorry if the sheer uncontrollable power of BOW caused extra damage to tiny hurtz in either situation

on a serious note i know what you mean, experienced it myself

'but its about time people think about the cost in time and money from continuing to attack after cease or pounding on a dead robot,' Agreed. And this applies particularly to house robots, as well as to over enthusiastic contestants. We should have a convention that once a robot is dead it is left alone, or pushed to a side wall or into the pit.

In not really complaining. Just a bit annoyed over the fact no matter how many times i hit the damn thing (And my also
my thumb for that matter) It wont bend back into shape
