And Skype fucking sucks anyway. It's unreliable as hell. My fiance uses it all the time, and the sound breaks up all the fucking time. It's useless.
Not if you want to just have wordy chats...

You mean voice only chat? Tried it, sucked.

She also uses it when she's home on the weekday and doesn't want to use up the minutes on her phone. She calls me on my phone from her computer on Skype. And it sucks. It just doesn't work.
There are few crimes in our modern society that merit public beating. Interrupting someone's enjoyment of Messiah to request "Jingle Bells" by the Singing Dogs is irrefutably one such offense.

He meant in the sense of AOL messenger. Skype has completely replaced that as the official ARC chat tool.

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.

Ah, never tried Skype as an IM. Good ol' AOL chat. lol. I haven't tried it as an IM because it was always supposed to be an evolutionary step above IM or whatever. I kinda prefer meebo, which kinda acts as a hub for all major IM services, but I also haven't been on IM that wasn't FB in forever.

I can't remember the last time I used AIM for chat. As for FB, that's mostly for family. I do most of my IMing on Skype.

I don't use the FB chat that often, but I sometimes use it to speak with Kody and Lian in particular.

I wouldn't be available for Skype. Doesn't work on my computer.
Well, regardless of whether you can join us for for Skype or not, the results will obviously be posted in the forums immediately afterwards, anyways. So no biggie. (Some might prefer that, too).

In other news, I created the bot cards for the bots Kody and NFX entered so far! (NOTE: If you really wanted to have made a change before I made your bot card, let me know.)

I can already see this being very interesting, battle wise. I also appreciate your entries thus far since there is a good variety that will test a lot of the bot types/modifiers.

Awesomeness. Force Majeure (I think that's how it's spelt?) looks badass, reminds me of a cross between Behemoth and Robo-Doc.

That's one of the benefits of a completely new system, you're more likely to get experimental, fun designs, because nobody's sure what will work and what won't. It won't be the usual Spinner vs Rammer fare

EDIT: I would also like to make sure that Long Shot Range applies to axes. Projectile weapons, to me, seem like pneumatic spikes and such.

Well, Long Shot was an axe bot, so I'm assuming it applies to axe bots.

I think I might use that bot Alex V gave me for Christmas in this, possibly as a lightweight or middleweight.

Yes, Long Shot Range applies to either project weapon type, whether it be vertical (hammer, axes, piercing claws) or horizontal (spikes, pneumatic ram, etc). So it would apply to a bot like Jinx, but also a bot like Force Feedback.
