for what it's worth, this is really silly. you want to know what's underneath my lifter wedge? another wedge&#33; if I can't get up the ramp with my lifter down than I can't get up it at all (which is in and of itself equally dumb - by that logic Hot Coffee&#33;, Xerxes, and any other 2WD wedge could not go up the ramp :V).

Glad to see the result up, though (and even happier that I won :V )

Eh, I figured I wasn't in with much of a chance to beat Captain Trips. When I saw he was camping on the ramp, I figured I had no chance at all. :v: Still, had a decent run with it, and No Exit's still one of my personal favourite designs on my team. Let's see how the rest of my team holds up.

Alright, so basically, with Noisey gone, the flipper rumble winner, Hellfire, is a non-factor. That means that the runner-up, TVC, takes its place in One Bot to Rule them All. However, that gives Alex V two robots in the rumble, which isn't allowed. If you could pick one, Alex, that'd be great, and then the other place would default to the next-highest finished in that rumble.

Haha. That's kind of what I was thinking too. I'll set the field in a little bit.

By just one point&#33; I'm very glad to have gotten that close to the final with Viluy, though, I was expecting her to be the fall guy on my team this time around. =D

Also Crash Blossom is looking to be in very good shape.

I find it rather irritating that Harby got 1 hit KO'ed since he doesn't really have any corners and thus shouldn't be subjected to 1 Hit KO regardless of weapon power. I mean I guess I would have lost no matter what, but sucks losing my last bot in the tournament like that.

Also that officially gives my first sub-.500 season since like 2005 or in other words since we switched to the round robin format. :v

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

"Overhead striking weapons include but are not limited to hammers, axes, swords, impaled dead babies and any other weapon swung overhead to cause damage. Hammers are designed to do large amounts of damage in a single strike. Overhead weapons like these do damage differently from all other weapon types, and as such need their own damage scale to accurately reflect the type of damage they do.

Its also worth noting that some of this depends on the type of axe head, whether it be blunt, or with a point, or some kind of combination. This, in addition to the surface that they're striking, requires some writer discretion to suss out exactly how much, and what kind of damage is being done"

Seeing that the house robot (emphasis on house robot) had a pointed axe, which had a whopping 7 points over Harby's top armor, along with the fact that hammers have a much different scale where pretty much everything they hit is a corner, Imo Tellu most certainly was able to 1HKO. But I didn't write this fight :v: I'm just putting by two bits in. I'm sure the writer will be able to explain it better
