I'll be interested to see how well that scoop puncher plays out.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Awesomeness- definitely looks pretty tough with that Force Feedback-like bar and the tracks and things. Shall I render him come Saturday? :cool:

GF93's Body Shop, I could make a killing from this. :P

If that's true I owe Chris a hell of a lot of money...

Thanks for the feedback so far guys, been thinking about stats for it for future tournaments and CBNBC too. How would these stats sound?

Speed: 7
Traction: 6
Torque: 2 (3 if we have the 30 point limit)
Armour: 9
Weapon: 4 (5 if we have the 30 point limit)

Seems reasonable.

Sounds good. I say go for the 30 point limit, myself- it'll be a good way to allow Spinners a chance, the 28-point limit's nerfed them a bit.

Even still though, I do find having less points for machines that did not require a wedge stat beforehand is a bit of an overnerf. Sounds odd coming from "He of the many Bricks, Lifters and Flippers" I know, but I do think it'd be good for bringing them back again.

I don't entirely disagree, especially since I was easily the most vocal about not getting rid of the wedge stat. So far it hasn't been as bad for spinners as I feared, perhaps because of my thoughts for the damage scale, but I'm still not sold on wedge vs. wedge fights.

Personally, I like not having to worry so much about a wedge stat since it means more points to apply on other things like drive and armour (And has allowed me to make some of my lesser-known designs like Discord and Marauder more useable in regular competitions), but I do think having 30 points as well would be good for providing equal opportunities for both wedges and spinners.

Bear in mind that I have no problem with having stuff like Jack Frost, Ridley, Dr. Robotnik, et. al. continue to vivisect everything, so every little bit helps. :D

I still remember the time when I found you'd obtained Jack Frost as part of Team Blood Gulch- first time I saw it there, I remember thinking- "oh, crap&#33;"
