I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

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

It was a lucky hit, more than anything. The polycarb would presumably have gaps in it for the piston(s) to work properly, and Hamerfell's axe head would be narrow enough to pass through them and pierce something. Not necessarily the bottle, I thought more along the lines of the piping. You still won, though, I just thought it would be a different and interesting thing to happen in the match, given your designs and strategies.

If I could be snide for a moment, there's more logic behind that happening than, I don't know, a shell spinner randomly catching fire for no valid reason. :v:

And now for my week in review. Scatterbrain lost, as expected, but I'm very pleased he put up as much of a fight as he did. RPM's result I am seriously surprised by, I did think with that level of Weapon over his Armour I would knock him out earlier than that, but it's still early days. Pursuit's wedges seem to be pretty good, which is a little bit of weight off my mind, after everyone seemed to be sceptical of them. And MDU kicked ass. 2-2, not as good as I'd been hoping, but it's a solid start. Hopefully I can improve further down the road.
Ah, OK. I guess it's fine as long as it didn't have too much bearing on the outcome of the match- certainly had me on the edge of my seat at least! But yes, I suppose a spiked Axe like Hammerfell's would probably be the best-suited overhead weapon to use if you were actively trying to get at the pipes or something, so I'll keep an eye out for opponents trying to do that in future.

And you do have a point, there. Cool as it was to actually kill Cryoseism with the old Bomb, sometimes I still find myself wondering how it ended up catching fire like it did. I mean, it's themed around ice, surely you'd think it would've melted or something. :v:

As for that MW match, I was honestly pretty surprised, myself. I mean, I had a feeling that Marauder was tough enough to withstand some of RPM's attacks, but I didn't think he'd win, let alone end up KOing it. Still, as you mentioned, it's early days yet, so hopefully both of them can still do very well later on.

As in, paying several hundred dollars to fly to a completely unfamiliar place, meet fellow ARCers and generally spend most of it standing around being completely awkward? :v:

To be fair, the only person that ever had to fly out to an ARCcon was Dylan/Fish of Doom, and that was only the first year. Everyone else was in driving distance.

And only the first year had people standing around awkwardly.

Anyway, that's my SHW fight up. Done a bit of research of old-school Robot Wars for it, so let's see how that could help.

EDIT: And now the LW match is done, too. Mystic, I'm fully intending to pwn you all over the place. :v:
