What just appeared in my hands?

So I scrolled down the schedule too far and didn't notice, which led me to erroneously believe I was fighting Hypothermia in HW this week. Unfortunately, I didn't realize until after I posted the thread, and it doesn't look like I'm able to delete the thread myself.![]() Edit: thank you Gabe Edited by Cha0sFerret, Aug 9 2016, 11:03 PM.

Fuck off Gabe. ![]() It's like when Count Bleck started 3-0 in Armageddon and then went 4-6. If Archetype slips to 7-4 overall I swear someone's gonna get amputated. ![]() Also, hum-ho, two forfeit wins and I broke Badnik's streak. Yay-type thing. 3-1. You better have a good RP for Plowdozer, Brad. The gloves are coming off.

Okay hold on here. I've had a closer look at the results and...
Okay, so Bass Drop runs into Annihilation just as Annihilation gets moving, the match is stopped shortly after, and Bass only wins Aggression by a bit? Annihilation wasn't even remotely aggressive, he just sat there and spun up... Bass Drop did all the aggressive work. And Zach put at least a bit more effort into his RP than Mark... I'm really confused. :S |

That is true. However, with only 3 weapon power over Rosebud's armor, I don't think any significant damage could have been expected barring corner hits. |

This week in summary: Icepick Lobotomy burns out its drive motors AGAIN. Charybdis melts its wheels AGAIN. Danger Noodle loses a tooth, but more importantly got hit so hard that two bearings exploded and a third jammed and was grinding against the inside of the drum with more friction than my friction roller put out. Same hit bent an axle, fucking up the drive gears on that side. That pinion was probably losing teeth one by one for the rest of the match before it finally died. Meanwhile, there were now a bunch of bearing rollers bouncing around inside the robot. On the last hit, one of said rollers bounced into the drive gears, and the huge torque of the drive motor (14" wheels mean lots of torque at the pinion) practically fused the gears together. And Compound Fracture actually works. Seriously, I don't think anything has actually broken yet, although I've replaced a beat-up top plate and a tire after the fights with Infrared and Bass Drop. Annhilation is up to bat next, though... |

3-1. 2 FF wins, which there's not much I can do about. Very pleased to see the strategy working against Mega Plowdozer, though, I needed a real hail mary against that one. On the other hand, what the fuck went on with Depth Charge vs Lyra? I cannot for the life of me work out how that was supposed to happen. |

3-1, that's pretty good all things considered! Even Hypothermia did better against Sparkster than it usually does, so I'm pretty pleased with that all-round. Maybe I should use the Golden Axe more often.

Okay, I've discussed things with HDiT about the result of Depth Charge vs. Lyra, and the way it's coming across is that he was looking for any weakness, and then decided to crowbar that into the result, regardless of whether or not it made sense to happen. I really hate to be the one to do this, but I would like Depth Charge vs. Lyra rewritten, please. |

...are you serious? As I said in the PMs, the match was close to even, I was looking for a deciding factor (largely so the match could be more interesting than "they push each other around for 3 minutes and one of them does more pushing"), and I saw a serious weakness in Depth Charge II's design that could lead to it being damaged if it ever got rammed with the flipper raised. This is the equivalent of requesting a rewrite because a robot with tall vertical sides got stuck on its side. |
