Angry Goat could be simplified and lightened down, I'm pretty sure, and still look like a FW. Perhaps lose a couple of wheels or so.

[/quote]The wheels are what make it angry, though. If you tone the wheels down you'll just have Mildly Annoyed Goat

[/quote]He doesn't have to tone down that wheels that much I think. Tbh, he could always double them up with 6WD. That should be enough to reach Agitated Goat :P

doubled up wheels are meaningless in actual wheel count :V

also to go under 8 would be silly, It'd just be the same as Warlock :V

So, it has occurred to me that with only a week for entries, if anyone enters something that has a major problem with it there's little we can do about it. I'm wondering about expanding the entry deadline a bit so that if someone has a rule-violating design or a physically impossible design... (you know who you are)... there's time for them to fix it.

People could send in potentially problematic designs to you beforehand if you'd be open to that...though Most people do also have multiple designs that they can use, if worst comes to worst

@Sylandro I would recommend giving Ball Lightning a little more armor. Even with 8 armor, that thing's not going to survive after 5 hits due to the self-damage rules

My illegitimate robotic children have been entered

I too have went ahead and announced my retirement tour for this. Have fun beating this shit out of me, ya'll. =P

Do you think we should have everyone in the discussion thread state that they're entering as a final confirmation (similar to what Gabe did in Showbots)? Just in case people decide to duck out early or forgot that they signed up.

I noticed that certain people like Playzooki and Madman have yet to show signs of life for entering the competition. With a final "yes" we'll know that they're still in it

Well, they'll either enter robots with actual stats and pictures or they won't. Having a one week window for actual entries immediately before the tournament like Nick has done serves pretty much the same purpose. I also wouldn't expect anything from my brother. I'm pretty sure he's quit ARC entirely.

Hey Botomatic, your lightweight has a few too many points. Just a heads up :P

Get that fixed when you can, alright?
