	"you can give a fuck, just don't give too much of a fuck. there's an optimal level of fuckiness, and if you exceed your fuck quota you'll burn out." - BEES Trihunter on V900's New Undercutter: Spoiler: click to toggle Number 15: Burger King Foot Princess. The last thing you want in your Burger King burger is a 15 weapon undercutter, but that might just be what you get. A 4channer uploaded a photo anonymously to the site showcasing his undercutter wedged in Hellhound�s plow. With the statement: "This is the spinners you get on ARC." Admittedly, he had wedgelets on. But that's even worse. The post went live at 6:24 AM on July 6, and a mere 3 minutes later, the tournament organiser in question was alerted to the rogue roboteer. At least, I hope he's rogue. How did it happen? Well, the ARC user hadn't removed the weird-ass wheels from the uploaded photo, which suggested the culprit ate plenty of dicks. This was at 6:27. Three hours later at 9:27, the TO posted with wishes for more writing staff. 5 minutes later, the news station was contacted by another 4channer. And three minutes later, at 9:30, a link was posted: ARC�s online forum. The undercutter photo, otherwise known as exhibit A, was attached. The police contacted the forum in question the next day. When questioned, the admin said "Oh, I know who that is. He's getting kicked out of the tournament." Mystery solved, by 4chan. Now we can all go back to making speed wedges in peace.

Yeah, when thinking of house robots that really felt like house robots, Genghis was the other one that really stood out, and to a lesser extent, Drakina and Clawstrophobia. Appreciated! That was one of the big things I was going for in designing him actually, having Genghis look and feel like a house robot that you'd see on TV or the live circuit. As in, that can fight well and is a huge danger to competitors, but still has an evident personality and distinct look, almost like some ancient mechanical horror from an old sci-fi movie.

Pat, I have no problem with you competing, and I hope that you bring some cool designs and do well, but I shouldn't have to interpret them. What they are, what they do, and what kind of drive trains they have should be clear from the pictures provided. That's my stipulation. Good luck!
