Which had rotation in the drivetrain. So it's a shuffler. [/quote]
So basically if it can turn, it's not a walker? [/quote]
No, It basically means that if there is any part of the drivetrain that continuously rotates through 360 degrees, like crankshafts or cams, then it is designated a shuffler. If there's a rotary motor involved, then I don't think the shaft counts.

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

Ouch. Some pretty tough losses to swallow. This will be an important week for him with two matches against Chris and one against Josh (all definitely winnable) and a big match for Conqueror in LW (that

Like half your season is 4-0s, the other is 0-4s. :v:

And if there's an odd number of weeks, throw a 2-2 in there somewhere. :v:

Aye, that's one way of looking at it. Still yet to have a 4-0 week though, I must admit- I've had 3-0 ones of course, but hopefully this might well be my big chance to do so.

Hopefully Josh gets his act together and stays on the +.500 side of .500. <_<

Well if I don't then this could very well end up as my worst season since the move to Round Robin style.

Considering I used to enter crap like It, Predator (not to be confused with the current competitor), Redemption Denied and Arbiter, it's even worse than it sounds. :lol:

No worries, man- everyone has a duff season every now and then. I'll be more than happy with occupying your usual spot on the Winners' Podium this time around, though. :P

To be fair, I think he's got a decent shot this time around. He's got three decent looking bots, all of which are in the playoff hunt. Granted Marauder's letting the team down, but the same could be said of Scatterbrain. I'll be surprised if he ends up not making the playoffs with at least one of them.

It was more to the fact of taking my "usual spot on the Winners' Podium". That's the real joke. Unless "usual" now translates to once in the last 6 years. :lol:

Come to think of it, I think we've all got one entry that drags the rest of 'em down, actually. There's Scatterbrain, Marauder and Final Boss, I've noticed. :P

Even still, it works in anyway- I mean, you're usually in the top three in most categories anyway, so...

This is making me kinda excited to enter the next tournament. If Chris and Josh are near the bottom of the rankings then the competition must have really stepped it up.

Since I'm entering three new, unproven designs in LoRE then I probably won't have anywhere near the same amount of success XD
