I don't need to come up with new robots to fail Philip. My old guards can handle that quite nicely. And of course I HAVE come up with new bots and failed so as a matter of fact I can do both thank you very much.

I can understand defending a championship title, especially because as I've found out, everyone wants to brag that they're the one who took down the king. And I'd even toyed with the idea of having an all-star team myself (but I never got that ARC title to get it done until I was getting ready to move), but ultimately, that is why Cow Tipper retired after winning. After doing it with that design, I wanted to move on and try new and fun things. It's kind of sad that all my champ bots were created for or before the first Fantasy Fury, but I enjoy the experimenting and the close rides I've had. I think I just need a runner-up in the LW division and I'll have a runner-up in every weight class as well as a champ |

I entered my all star team in Armageddon because I thought that was pretty much gonna be the last tournament so I felt it was the best way to go out with a bang. Prior to that Tank was retired back after Redemption, and Eurypterus in Reckoning. Force Feedback will be retired at the end of this tournament. The Windmill isn't retired but I've been fucking around with Dr. P to much to find space to bring him back. Dr. P has over 30 losses at the moment and my current 'project' has been to get him over .500. Fighting Rascal with Windmill again does make it tempting, though, especially after them fighting words. I should bring them all back just to spite Philip. |

My main reason for bringing Force Feedback back for this tournament was simply because I was out of robots and out of ideas. Automaton just wasn't working and needs an overhall that I'm still brainstorming for. I just don't have a lot of MWs, since Tank and Flank Attack took up that spot way back in the day, and then Scorpion Bite and FBSDS were designs that didn't really work out (combined with there not being a lot I wanted to work on them for). Then 4 straight tournaments of Force Feedback before disappearing for a couple years. I don't actually have a lot of designs in the storage, that's definitely true though. I think after I finish working on this new robot I'll have 7 serviceable designs. I'd probably like to get that number up to 9. At least 3 for each weight class is probably a good rotation. Unlike Kody who literally has billions and billions of designs in a storage unit out in Toronto somewhere. |

If you're referring to the oodles of renders in the ARC Photo Archive, yeah most of those are not being used in any capacity anymore. |

Wow, even Warper had a more stable base than that. That's almost as bad as Maximum Overdrive. |

dude, how do you even know about Tim? That guy was gone before we even left XSOrbit! EDIT: We're clearly talking about different Tims. I'm referring to Team G-Bot. Warper didn't have a SRiMech either, but there was no logistical way to put one on there. That's what happens where you're trying to design a LowBlow knockoff and end up with a Doctor Inferno, Junior knockoff. Edited by succotash_54, Jan 28 2014, 05:28 PM.

Personally- I consider having a srimech or invertibility to be an absolute priority when building robots, so it's quite surprising to see one that has no means of recovering from being flipped at all. |
