Not really. Just hit it around with the drum. From what Ive heard, I should (hopefully) be able to out-manouver it.

Thanks for the help, Tony.

Now then, lets complete the eliminators.

Octo-push 3 vs. Walk Away

Octo-push 3 is another wedge, but more boxy than others. Its wedge is HUGE, and its got 6WD with wheel protectors, just like Minion. Unlike Minion, however, is the sea-coloured area surrounding a massive rear spinning drum @ 1000rpm. The armour is 3mm steel. Christopher says it would need a miracle to overturn his bot, but if it is flipped, its toast.

Walk Away has been modified to make the 200kg mark, since hes a walking SHW. Hes a FBS-shaped bot, but its not an FBS. Its a ring spinner with a 360 degree plow/skirt-type thing surrounding the bottom. The ring weighs 45kg and sports sharp teeth for cutting away at anything and everything. Also, it has a gimmick that allows it to have a 0 ground clearance. However its got no srimech either. Sports 1.5cm hardox armour, so hes incredibly tough.

Roboteers, stand by...

Booth 1: Christopher Mason
Booth 2: Anthony Politzi

ACTIVATE!

Its Octo-push with the wedge assault on Walk Away, who is NOT moving at all, but getting the spinning ring spinning. So Chris turns his SHW around and attacks with the drum. All of a sudden, Walk Away springs to life, and the bot raises up and moves in the opposite direction. But its not that fast, and sooner or later...
CRASH!!!
Oh boy, who came off worse in THAT hit?! Id say it was Octo-push, as he has been sent sprawling by that hit! Walk Away hasnt been moved that much at all, and the ring is spinning again! Octo-push comes forward with the wedge again, but Walk Away immediately dips down and Octo-push hits the plow...and the wedge hits the ring!
CRASH!!!
And Octo-push feels the hurt badly: the side of his wedge is gnashed right open! Not only that, its spun him around, too! But Walk Aways ring is not spinning now, and Octo-push hurriedly buries the drum in.
CRASH!!!
Walk Away isnt moved at all, and thats probably worse! Great pieces of armour have been completely ripped off of the plow! Walk Away gets up and pushes Octo-push, but the latter responds with a shove of his own, and theyre locked together now, drum-to-ring, and suddenly Walk Away seperates from Octo-push and spins up his ring again. Octo-push turns around to get the wedge under...and finds that Walk Away has played dead again, except for the spinning ring. Octo-push again turns and buries the somewhat damaged drum into the spinning ring.
CRASH!!!
Alert! Flying metal parts! The drum on Octo-push has just been totaled, pieces flying everywhere, and I think that about does it for Octo-push, for they are immobilized on their wheels! Something else internally has broken indeed, and heres Walk Away coming in on the side for an attacking blow!
CRASH!!!
The wheel protectors are mangled, and chewed right up! If Octo-pushs movement wasnt hindered before, it sure is now.

CEASE!

And that about ends it. Walk Away is the winner of the fight.

Octo-push 3 is pushed aside in scattered bits.
Walk Away walks into the Superheavyweight Final!

Puzzel vs. Walk Away

Aaaaggh, Nooo. Do what I did with Octopush. Dont move unless Im forced to. Hopefully I can tear that flipper off early...

Wuzzel vs Sith: spin up asap and keep the spinning bar between Sith and rear wheels. Let the opponent come to me, im not chasing.

Puzzel vs. Walk Away: Get in fast, make every flip count.

LOL, copy and paste is so useful, isnt it Leo? :wink:

Actually, the fight will be up tomorrow. I got kinda busy with research on valves and lagged with my C&B2 fight. Sorry about that. :sad:

[leorcc]

The Crash & Burn Tournament: Other Weights!

Featherweight Finals time! WHOA! Off the bat Sith goes flying into Wuzzels spinning blade, and no damage cuased to Sith, but its looking pretty grim for him now as Alex goes crazy on the flipper button. FLIP! Wuzzel is tossed across the arena, but Sith is right at him again! FLIP! Wuzzel is hurled against the wall! Sith rears behind and rams the landing Sith with his big fat behind! Wuzzel seems to have been knocked silly by the flip, but before he recovers he is rammed against the opposite wall with great force! Finally, Wuzzel is able to get away, but Sith is following him and Wuzzel reverses expertly, and now the blades reached full speed! Sith is more cautious this time, and decides to sod being defensive, and hurls himself into the blade!
CRASH!
Sith now finds himself with half his face, and spun around with his rear facing Wuzzel, whos starting to get charged up again! The other part of Siths face is laying in one of the CPZs, but thats not really important, and this is: Sith flying into Wuzzel! As Wuzzels blade has only spun up halfway, it doesnt really do anything to the 3mm kevlar, and Sith is back in business! FLIP! Wuzzel is inverted again, and Sith is still there! FLIP! Wuzzel is tossed again, landing on the flame pit! Sith rolls in but Wuzzel rolls out, and the blade is again charging up, and reaching dangerous velocities! Sith hurriedly charges the spinner, but -
CRASH!!
WHOA!!! Look at the power of that featherweight spinner! By the looks of it, it hit the exposed side of Siths front, hit and broke the aluminum bars of the chassis AND smashed through the 3mm on top! Whoa! But Sith, other than that, seems to be okay. Talk about durability! Sith is again stopping the blade from spinning, but doesnt flip, instead ramming the wall and finally...FLIP! But no! Wuzzel hits the wall and bounces behind Sith! Sith reverses to repeat the rear shove into the wall, but Wuzzel gets away this time. Sith spins and charges, but finds the blade back up to speed!
CRASH!!
Both bots go flying...in the same direction! Sith has indeed taken the worst of the hit, with the other front panel dented, but Wuzzel went flying up and crash-landed in front of Sith! Not good for him! Sith gets under and FLIP! Wuzzel is again tossed! And...that about does it for Wuzzel! Hes completely immobilized...except for the spinning blade, which is spinning lethally! Sith really is evil: hes gotten to the rear, and wedging it up! The blade hits the floor!
CRASH!!
Wuzzel is knocked across the arena by the power of his own blade! It must have been powerful, for Wuzzel is thrown across the arena again, and right past the floor flipper! Sith advances again, and reaching Wuzzel carefully shoves him onto the floor flipper. 3...2...1...TOSS! Wuzzel is going...going...gone! The arena camera tracks welcome their newest member.

CEASE!

Wuzzel fought hard, but in the end, it was all for naught.
SITH IS THE C&BT: OTHER WEIGHTS FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!
