OK, that's almost all my RPs for this week done. Just the SHW Tag Team one to do, but I'll probably leave that for later. In the meantime, fuck 2016. :v:

If not for allowing to get counted out, the entire decision would have changed. Instead of a double KO, it would have ended up with Pegasus Device pushing you around into hazards and shit and possibly a judges decision in favor of Pegasus Device and Vicious. If I was in this state imo, I would let the stronger bot (who would be out of reach btw) to continue. Note that you did in fact, get the win, so I would simply leave it at that.

I just saw this in Drop Zone's fight:

<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>Quote:</dt><dd>&nbsp;</dd></dl><div>The next time Drop Zone wedges under the front wedge plate of Capitol Punishment, the latter waits for Drop Zone's lifter to be raised, backs off slightly and rams its dustpan under the lifter before it can retract.[/quote]

Someone point to where DZ's lifter is, because I never included one.

Wow, how did that happen

Of course, Scylla losing means the bot I care most about goes up against Alex's friggin' melty-FBS... great.

I'm quite gutted about Chewer loosing by a house robot K.O but it did give Moonraker a run for it's money, so I'm pleased he did really well to even have a good shot against the opponent, maybe some adjustments could be made for him to make it more dangerous. Steelvor will face Red Snake Of Death, I actually preferred him than The Four Elements. It will not be easy but I'll certainly be a lot more careful in this battle.

I was in too much of a hurry when I did my RPs and Drop Zone just looked so much like a lifter :P

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

Well, Circuit Breaker had a good run. It was definitely surprising to me that a 'borrowed' design (thnx Wolf 51-50, BTW&#33;) that I statted with a poor control ratio actually made it this far&#33;

Trust me, for the next big tourney (R4?), I will have my s**t together&#33;

Brad's memes outpowered mine :(

Quite disappointed in that hw tho, really thought I'd be able to pull that one off. But hey, VA moves on&#33;

While I'm looking forward to that match in terms of challenge, I'm not looking forward to it terms of dealing with a hammer like that.

In my current demotivated state I'm not expecting anything less than being KO'd. :P

3/5 bots in the quarterfinals isn't bad, even if I didn't expect two of the three that made it to have gone that far :v:

next time I enter Debilitator (read: probably never) it'll be fixed so that the spinner actually extends past the wedge :v:
