As a first foray into hosting competitions, I figured I'd have a go with a small HW-orientated competition. Something for us all to partake in, have a bit of fun, and of course the usual metal-shredding robot smashup that comes with it all.

I'll cover the rules and things in the signups thread, which will come afterwards, but it should generally be quite similar to this, but with the rules updated for modern standards-

-for the time being though, feel free to chat about what you might enter and anything else that comes to mind. Discuss!

Good to hear! It'll be nice to see Killobyte back actually, haven't seen him for some time.

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

Personally, I blame Robot Wars and its lack of other weight classes. :v:


Good to see you here too, Josh. Hopefully we'll see the others appear, too. ^^

Just came up with a great idea for retooling Intimidator, so it will be coming back.

Or I could enter a new 3-way multibot I've been toying with. Or The Trashy Strolling. Dunno.

Also can someone ban lefunnydogface before he completely wrecks the forum

That was my main thought about it, haha. I don't remember if Robot Wars HWs were the same weight limit as Battlebots HWs though.

Not in the earlier series from what I recall- it had a weight limit of about 85kg from Series 1-4, and was later increased to 100kg from Robot Wars Extreme and beyond.


But yes- thanks for sorting that out, Kody. Honestly, these people are absolutely pathetic to want to follow people onto here and continue to give them hell even as everything's being sorted out.

Agreed. If he's really as dissatisfied with his life as I've heard, perhaps he should actually go out and make something of it instead of just projecting his problems onto others. He's like a black hole for happiness, honestly.

Anyway, confrontational matters aside- I know Killobyte's most likely going to return, but what's everyone got planned to enter?

Depending on when this is slated to kick off I may draw up my new HW idea early for this.

Sounds good, man. I'm entertaining the idea of entering Discord for it, actually.
