Speaking as a victim of it myself, it's unfortunate- going by the designs, he could've won there, too.

Still, such is life.

Well yeah obviously his wedge is better than mine, and the one speed point advantage would not allow me to get to his sides.

Two results to go, and Martijn is writing them. He'll be writing them a bit later today, so expect all the results to be up tonight or early tomorrow.

OK, looking forward to seeing them. Hopefully I've managed to win at least one of the trickier matches!

One point away from a 4-0 week. Kraze is having a seriously tough time of it, but I'm hoping I can at least get something out of this season with him. Frequency's doing a lot better than I imagined he would be. Hopefully the form continues. Braveheart and Reaver get FF's, but hey. Braveheart kinda needed a win.

Bah, SeC is still hunting for a positive record. =/ Oddly enough he's not out of reach of a play-off spot but shit like Bad Wolf, Green Dragon, and Stingray... yeah, that'll be the day.

Otherwise, doing fantastic in the other divisions still. Now enough of the FF wins. Jack Frost, you're going down.

EDIT: Power Rankings updated and Week 8 fight card up.

Actually, speaking of Jack Frost, that loss of his this week legitimately confuses me. Spatula did say that Curse of the Deep was a physically impossible design. If he acknowledged that... how could it have won? :v:

Yes, I have to go on record and say I find the Jack Frost vs. Curse of the Deep fight to be simply unacceptable. I ran down my opinion of Curse in the ARC chat and was eventually agreed by the writer of the fight (as Kody said) that Curse was an impossible design.

So suffice to say I'm stunned that it got that kind of leeway. There have been no shortage of bots over the years that have had problems far less severe than Curse has that have not received such generous concessions so I can only ask: where is the consistency in this regard?

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.

Views on each match-

LW- A 30 second KO is nice, but keeping the winstreak going is even nicer, so all good here. :P

MW- Ah, piss. At least I beat him on Damage, so it wasn't a total whitewash.

HW- This one was more of a failure, though. When will I get a match where I don't have to fight a horizontal Uber-spinner?

SHW- Getting the name of the Tampa Bay Rays wrong aside (Been a while since I've been to Florida, you see.), this one went well, too. I was worried that I was going to end up getting chucked off with that big flipper, but I'm pleased to see that Lethal Injection was ultimately able to pull through and knock him off.


All in all, not too bad. Would've liked to have beaten Dead Ringer or Force Feedback, but they were always going to be very tough to beat. On the bright side, I'm pleased that Tornedron and Lethal Injection 2 are still keeping their winning streaks going- particularly now that they've hit the Big 7!

Anyway, matchups for next week-

LW- Frequency. Considering we're both powerful spinners, it could honestly go either way. I beat him last time with the slower and less powerful Psyclone, so here's hoping Tornedron can do it again.

MW- Stingray. Bah, it's not getting any easier for her, is it? It's on Lumina Cloth, so it might be possible, but we'll have to see how this one goes. I badly need the win though, which if I could get that, would be fantastic- it'd put me in relatively good steed ( :v: ) to catch up.

HW- Final Judgement. Hooray, I finally get to fight another HW that isn't a Spinner! Taking aspects of both our designs and stats into account, and without sounding too cocky, I think I've got a good chance to equalise again, here.

SHW- Reflector Shield. Interesting to fight another veteran! Great big pusher with very similar stats to me, interesting choice of Arena in Casino Night Zone, so this should be a good match. I think my weaponry edges it a little in my favour- but again, we'll have to see.

In my case though, I do try to get them in as soon as I can- but sometimes my University work delays them a bit.
