Hey all, results are sadly not yet in. I'm waiting on about half of them. Brackets for the second round of MW/HW/SHW will be up this evening. |

I feel confident that Chewer may have done well against Heretic upsetting the odds :). |

I definitely feel as if it has a chance in that match. |

I think some actually underestimate Chewer, ok so he doesn't have the strongest weapon in the FW category but he can pack a punch and I reckon he can grab some good wins :). He has a good drivetrain inside of him. I designed the robot to make it become a nuisance. What do you think? |

For me, as long as it's gone reasonably well (or at least a bit better than last week), that's good enough! Although, I am a little disappointed that Mystic didn't RP for the LW Battle. I thought that one would've been quite good.

And another FF on the team battle. I know a win's a win, but there's no pleasure nor reason to it if it isn't a fair victory. |

Still, the Featherweight fight went pretty well. Got a good fight with Peskius and scored the knockout I was hoping for, and that bit where Torque Dirty picked a fight with Teresa (IE. something almost 22 times its size) at the end was hilarious.

It says: "Spinner/Hammer High-KE Combo" Does that mean it's an actual clutch, or does that mean "combination of two weapons, both of which are high-KE." Sapp, would you mind clarifying this? |

Hmm. I don't think omni wheels and omnidirectional drive are the same thing. Either way, well done Tidal Wave |

considering that there are any multitude of wheel systems that allow for omnidirectional moment, he technically could have given you Swerve drive or even the Drive that ringmaster had

Yeah, Drew, I'd just specify 100% in future RPs to avoid something like that. |

Ok. Yeah I knew that before, I just never got around to fixing it in the sign ups. Just something to remember later on. Btw, you won't be seeing any omniwheels in my bots unless I somehow get high as fuck

*sigh* I did specifically say that I would not leave the catacombs, which was a bit of a disapointing end to an otherwise fantastic match. fun week overall, really. as much as I made fun of this arena, it made for quite a few hilarious matches

I'm really impressed with Chewer's first match, he literally managed to sort out Heretic and I guess the aggressive tactic for that match worked. At first I didn't seem convinced that Chewer would win the fight but I'm really stunned it did. |

So, there were definitely a few surprises in this round. They may not have been how I would've written those fights, but so long as I didn't think that they were clearly outside the realm of possibility, or demonstrated a fundamental lack of understanding of the bots involved, I wasn't about to reject the results. Also, Gabe, despite your RP, I figured that you'd probably eventually drive up with only a bit of time left since the fight was closer than expected, and you probably needed to score a few more points to ensure a win. |
