It is so awesome to see the giant spike in activity on this website now. I'd be really interested to see traffic stats Pre-Hammerfall to now.

Anyway, gonna work on DD2's design later and get my HW up at some point. No idea what I want to do for that though.

Redesigned Dat Dog and have made my HW....no pics yet but I'm pretty happy with how they came out. Nothing ground breaking, but a couple of cool looking push bots. We shall see what happens.

I've replaced Halberd with Pandemonium, since Halberd will be returning for the next Hammerfall tournament.

Hey there, HotDealsInTexas, good to see you! Thanks for signing up to FRR: Backlash, always glad to have new(ish) people. :cool:

I was kind of hoping to see Aphelion again since it was actually one of my favourite bots, but it's cool, your newer bots seem pretty interesting as well. ;)

I am a big fan of Danger Noodle's name. it is now one of my favorites simply because of that.

Generally solidly built machines you have there, should be fun to face!

Nice to see another newcomer enter the ARC group, and good looking robots too, the SHW reminds me too much on Barberous

Welcome to the boards, HDIT. =) I'm liking the look of your team so far, hopefully you stick around.

Yeah, Texas has some sweet bots. Cool names as well.

So glad to see so many people coming over here.

Really excited for Backlash though. This is shaping up to be an awesome tournament.

If there ends up interest in all the stats stuff like I've been helping with for Hammerfall, I'd be willing to help out do power rankings/prediction threads/statistics here too.

I'm probably gonna keep making changes to my lineup right up until the deadline lol. The actual lineup itself is the same, but Viper is now just a pure axe bot. The wedge is no longer a lifter and is just a simple hinged wedge now.

You should have plenty of time for that. Especially since we're planning on updating the CFL list at the end of Ruination, FRR won't begin immediately after Ruination ends.

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