Expected loss, as 626 had a speed/control advantage over Magpie coupled with no opportunities for an OOTA for me. I knew this going into the tournament, but decided to run flippers for my LW & SHW. It is what it is... Harpy: Did what it was designed to do and drove perfectly in its fight against Biological Warfare. Death Metal: Yep, awesome fight-for the audience. Me? Not so much. The battery packs were ruined and will need replacing. Luckily, the motors and the frame welds look good. Triple 6: Close decision over Metal Heck, but T6 is a solid machine and can take the punishment. Powerful arena hazards help when there are no OOTA zones, either. Damage-wise, only minor repairs for everyone except for Death Metal. Ugh, this heavyweight division looks brutal with a match vs Charybdis this week hurries to get DM's top cover on. I hope being in the 'Raytheism' division doesn't curse me Tough loss out of the gate and look shows right hand wrapped in bandages DM's already drawn blood Glances at rest of fight card yep, tough week all around. But, this tournament is a marathon, not a sprint!

(�̀ᴗ�́)و Posts: 294 Group: Members Member #178 Joined: September 14, 2015	Really pleased with 3-1! I was expecting to lose with Pinstripe, but even a lucky win is good! The Maw did quite well against a difficult foe, even if it (just barely) lost. Sinmill did horizontal spinner stuff to a lightly armored opponent, and Speed Bison did spinner killer stuff to a spinner opponent. Good times. This week will be much harder for me though. I feel like I'm far more likely to go 1-3 than 3-1, but I'll be happy as long as it isn't 0-4.

HmmmmMMMMMMM...... Posts: 652 Group: Members Member #199 Joined: June 3, 2016	LW: I was expecting to win this fight tbh lol. Just wasn't meant to be. Guess there isn't as much love for 1 point flippers as there used to be MW: Not my best strategizing for this. I did literally everything except angle into the thing lol. HW: Coup doing what Coup does. Took damage but managed to get that killer blow in. Eat a dick ya haters :v SHW: I expected to lose this fight actually. But it worked out. Got the one blow to take him out (and myself) and won the decision on the rush to hit him

It even works pretty well on mobile! It's using the data imported from a Google Spreadsheet to render everything (though I have to import it manually... if you're a JavaScript wizard and know how to do it automatically please teach me!) But this means it's easy for you to correct my mistakes: just edit the spreadsheet and let me know you did so I can update the page. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TArayQwCmyCSLSf4Qa70FciKpRtbdRK150Vby4BrsW4/edit?usp=sharing

Lost and Confused Posts: 60 Group: Members Member #246 Joined: September 20, 2017	Round 1 could've gone better for me. 1-3. Anyway, I'm less concerned about that than I am the fact that Ravex is being reffered to as a 4wd bot. I showed on the discord quite a bit before that it was 2wd. So are images on the discord just considered non-canon or can The_Angry_Goat edit his RP to accomodate for this fact. If it's considered 2WD, I'm expecting 2-2, but if not, another easy 1-3 for next week. Edited by GuldenFlame, Mar 15 2018, 08:30 PM.

You have to refer to your robot's mobility in your sign-up description, or otherwise have it abundantly clear in the sign-up pictures. Countless others besides you have made the exact same mistake, even after being told this, though, so don't feel entirely bad about it. I'll leave it up to the staff to determine Ravex's # of wheels.
