Post by attackfrog » Sat Sep 02, 2017 9:14 pm

I've just moved this week and circuit breaker for my new room is fucked or something, so that's why I haven't been online at all. But I still have my laptop and some time to write RPs even with all the painting. I don't, however, have time to update the Visual Guide, sorry! Hopefully the electricity situation will be sorted out sometime in the coming week and I'll have time to update everyone's team to their final states in time for the next round of RPs, but uhh... don't hold your breath.

Anyhow, good luck to everyone this week! Looking forward to having some free time to spend on Discord again...

Hope you get everything sorted out, AttackFrog!

Yeah, we're pretty spoiled by having the visual guide for quick reference, since CBC2 has 164 robots competing in it!

In the meantime, for anyone who may not know this, you can go into the CBC2 signup thread and press ctrl+f. A search box will appear in the upper-right of your screen and you can type the name of the bot that you are looking for.

That was a good read, and thanks for helping keep track of records indirectly!

Also, just for kicks, the CBC2 match report writeups are going to include a number of running gags: some weekly, some biweekly, and some monthly. In any event, I thought it might be a good idea to keep track of them here. To date, the ongoing storylines are:

Josh having a good time with a slightly downer ending
HFL disappearing with some sketchy new friends and coming back with some sort of body modification
Gabe having a hallucinogenic experience and gradually opening his third eye
Salamandra coming to the rescue in unlikely ways
Nick avenging Love Hurtz in a 'death by a thousand papercuts' way against Kody
Pat attempting to bend local fauna to his iron will
Alex V rescuing Swiftsure from something or someone dangerous
Dylan always winning some sort of race
Benny (doot) being the beneficiary of rather mundane instances of dumb luck wherever we go
Brad always trying to do good deeds or the right thing but something terrible always happening as a result
Laz always trying to do something selfish or mean-spirited, but with invariably positive results.
Jamie always eating something that is distinctly bad for him
Drew always picking up some minor injury
Eddie (Sylandro) being mistaken for Arnold Schwarzenegger and then having to fight off real badguys in a climactic action scene.
Laz and Nick trying to outdo each other in terms of hair growth.
Hii (Zach) always kicking the shit out of a disabled, elderly, or needy person for a completely justified reason.

If people have any more ideas, feel free to float them out there. Also, vote in the polls that I posted!
Mastodon... Extinction (HW)
Osiris... Armageddon! (MW)
Elrathia... ROBOTS (LW)
Magnolia Pico... Ruination 4 (MW)
RipTide... ROBOT2 (FW)
Black Diamond... Cherry Bomb Classic 3 (HW)
MADSCIENCE... ROBOTS 3 (LW)
Abyss... ROBOTS 3 (MW)


The Monsterworks: 214-57 (.790) ...Probably up to no good.
Cherry Bomb Classic IV: 25-4
Finishing Move: 6-2
Magnolia Pico: 6-1
Magnolia Grande: 6-1
Glacier III: 7-0
ROBOTS 3: 21-6
Sixpounder: 3-4
MADSCIENCE: 9-1 Champion!
Abyss: 9-1 Champion!

I know that Laz had claimed that I didnt have a stabilizing wedge for my lifter in his RP, and want to be 100% sure that that was not what caused this in our match (because otherwise I am going to want a re-write), because I definitely have one

See, I thought that was just part of the lifter when I looked at the pics for that fight, it's really not clear at all that it's a stabilizing wedge thing. But fair enough, I ballsed that one up, I'd be fine with a rewrite if Alex will allow it.

Okay, Cuddle Time/Wild Child rewritten, and all three of my results have now been edited in.
