Xmas SMASH!!

PREDICTIONS:

Crash Trashed Robot will become what I changed its name to. :P

In a reversal of general opinion, I think Fling will pwn Super Gore Septua...BADLY , largely through use of the pit.

Great writing Liam, youve still got it

The 2nd Revenge of Black Death vs. Crash Trashing Robot

Roboteers, standby!

Booth Red: Samuel Park
Booth Blue: Christopher Mason

House Robot: Psychopath

SMASH!!

Both robots drive off out of their starting squares and meet in the centre of the arena, their front ground clearances cancelling one another out, as this becomes a pushing match! Chris gains the advantage though and pushes The 2nd Revenge of Black Death backwards across the arena and back over the red square into the spike strip behind it! And as the rear flywheel hits the wall and stops CTR digs in there and breaches the front of Black Death, inching in underneath and with a flick from that front flipper Black Death is turned turtle against the wall, but fires the flipper too early and so the flipper is open over the barrier while the disc is stuck on a spike! The 2nd Revenge of Black Death is trapped now, as if Samuel tries to close the flipper it just hits the rail, and I wonder if the flipper rams will be damaged by this? At the moment though we don€™t know as The 2nd Revenge of Black Death is stuck where it is, and Chris isn€™t about to spoil this flawless victory by freeing it as time ticks down.
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
The 2nd Revenge of Black Death has been counted down and out of the match and CTR twirls in victory as Psychopath now comes in to finish the job, bringing the heavy hammer down onto the top of the trapped Black Death, snapping the flipper off and in doing so liberating the wedge shaped machine!

CRASH!!!

Sam is back on the ground, but his machine has already been counted out and now Chris just moves in to finish the job, turning Black Death turtle once more with a snort of co2 from that nasty front flipper, and without its own flipper Black Death is immobilised again.

CEASE!

The 2nd Revenge of Black Death wants revenge now; Crash Trashing Robot has finally trashed the opposition!


Super Gore Septua vs. Fling

Roboteers, standby!

Booth 1: Kody Kunz
Booth 2: Daniel Stickler

House Robot: Furnace

SMASH!!

Again a flying start to the fight as both robots leave their starting squares at maximum speed, clashing in the middle of the arena, but neither gaining the advantage as their ground clearances cancel each other out. However Super Gore has the more powerful drive and the claws clamp down on the sides of Fling as Kody pushes the wedge-shaped machine backwards across the arena and into the CPZ. The sides have been depressed very slightly, but no real damage has been done to Fling€™s armour and certainly not to the internal workings. Furnace move sin now though and scoops the two of them up by driving underneath the rear of Fling and fire explodes out of the dome shaped house robot, engulfing the two combatants as Furnace rams them headlong across the arena and into the pit release button!!

CRASH!!!

The pit release button is depressed and all three robots are sent flying from the hit, Fling recovering quickly and running in on the attack of Super Gore Septua, suddenly turning the tables by flipping it up high in the air to land on the side rails of the arena! Super Gore wobbles precariously, and then topples back in, but with its wheels hanging over the camera tracks! Fling resets its flipper and then moves in, driving in underneath the beached Super Gore Septua and fires its powerful flipper, tossing the horizontal crusher over the fence and out of the competition!

CEASE!

Super Gore Septua is gored out; Fling flings the opponent right out!

Scoreboard:
Super Gore Septua ~ 3, 0 = 3pts
The 2nd Revenge of Black Death ~ 3, 0 = 3pts
Fling ~ 0, 3= 3pts
Crash Trashing Robot ~ 0, 3= 3pts

Leaderboard:
=1st Crash Trashing Robot

Next Time:
Super Gore Septua vs. The 2nd Revenge of Black Death
&
Fling vs. Crash Trashing Robot

The two winners of these fights will have the most points, so whoever won out of the two winners when they fought will be crowned champion, mainly because I want to finish this before Christmas, but don€™t want to write on Christmas day.

Xmas SMASH!!

Oh well, good one Dan.

Super Gore Septua vs. The 2nd Revenge of Black Death

Side attack FTW! Get to the sides, clamp, and pit! Id prefer to attack the flipper rather than the disc though.

Fling vs. Crash Trashing Robot

Fling FTW.

Keep up the writing spirit Liam.

Xmas SMASH!!

Avoid that front, and slam into the rear/sides and use the disc. If I can, get under it, and flip it out.

Good luck, Kody.

Fling will pwn Crash Trashed Robot. (Sorry Chris)

SMASH!!

The two robots both armed with powerful flippers leave the starting squares as this match begins, with Fling being the more aggressive and twisting around right at the start of the bout to slip under the side of Crash Trashing Robot, Daniel Stickler at the controls firing the flipper to send CTR up and over! Chris still has the spike to use though and drives in underneath the front of Fling while the flipper is still raised, firing the spike and knocking Flick up into the air, but not over and Daniel€™s wedge shaped machine is soon back on the ground and back on the attack, driving on another onslaught at CTR, getting the flipper under the side again and now driving towards the CPZ, firing the flipper and sending CTR up high, to come crashing down on top of Shunt, who lifts it with the scoop and brings the axe down on top before going full out and ramming CTR across the arena and into the spike strip! Chris escapes now though and drives in on the attack of Fling and getting under that 20mm ground clearance at the rear and powering across the arena with those powerful magmotors in the drive, firing the flipper just as they reach the spike strip to knock Fling over sideways and slam it against the spikes, pinning Fling there while the flipper resets, but when it does CTR is knocked away by the force of the weapon and Fling lands on its back, but again CTR rushes in on the attack and rams in underneath, slamming Daniel Stickler€™s machine into the spikes again, but the hardox armour holds up and now Fling fires its flipper to self-right and drive away before anymore damage can be done, turning now to get underneath the inverted wedge at the back of CTR and firing that spring-powered flipper to knock the Crash Bandicoot robot up into the air again, this time with Chris landing on the flame pit and the fur catches fire! CTR reverses off the flame pit though and drives at Fling, who goes on to meet it, but their ground clearances cancel each other out and the magmotors of CTR triumph over the Sinclair C5s that Fling is using as Chris now uses the extra power to force Daniel back across the arena and into the pit release button! The siren wails and now our drivers have another thing to worry about, that great gaping hole in the floor that Crash Trashing Robot and Fling have both already seen the bottom of earlier in this tournament. Fling drives away from CTR now though and spins when Chris comes on another ramming attack, easily knocking the thin robot away and sliding in under the side ground clearance, ramming it now across the arena and firing the flipper for CTR to go flying up into the air and coming crashing down- into the chasm, only to disappear in a puff of smoke!

CEASE!

Crash Trashing Robot is flung out of the competition; Fling flings all he opposition away in its final match!


Super Gore Septua vs. The 2nd Revenge of Black Death

Roboteers, standby!

SMASH!!

And as the final match of this tournament gets underway we do know that Super Gore Septua has no chance of finishing first in the tournament, since it was defeated by Fling earlier on. But it€™s not going to go down without a fight and Kody wants that high placed finish, driving straight out of the starting square to meet The 2nd Revenge of Black Death in the middle of the arena, their ground clearances cancelling each other out and despite Black Death having the more powerful motors Super Gore wins the pushing match due to the traction given by those grippy tracks, and as the pneumatic claws snap into place to sink through the thin armour of Black Death, and Samuel€™s robot is edged back across the arena, but now Kody turns and heads for the CPZ, pushing Black Death into King, who grabs the rear with both his claws just as Super Gore lets go and reverses across the arena into the pit release button! King has a good grip on Black Death though and lifts it into the air, the disc spins and the flipper fires but it€™s no good against the power of King, who crunches through the thin hardox and goes into a Sir Killalot-type spin, letting go and allowing Black Death to be hurled through the air and land right next to the open pit! Samuel tries to move, but the wheels have been munched up by King and the one of the motors earlier on by Super Gore Septua, so the only movement is very slight as we see that Black Death never really got a chance in this match and now Kody rushes in just to finish it off by bumping it into the pit.

CEASE!

Just 11 seconds into the match and The 2nd Revenge of Black Death is massacred; Super Gore Septua wins!

Final Leaderboard:
1st Fling
2nd Super Gore Septua
=3rd The 2nd Revenge of Black Death
=3rd Crash Trashing Robot

And unlucky finish for Black Death who beat the eventual champion in the very first match, but lost to the others and so doesn€™t manage a high finish. Technically Super Gore Septua and Fling tie for first, but since Fling had defeated Super Gore Septua earlier it€™s Daniel Stickler that is the winner.

Goodbyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeee!

Nice writing Liam, well done Dan for winning and to everyone else for contributing

Xmas SMASH!!

Oh my word! I honestly did not expect to win - especially after I lost the first round! I must say fantastic writing Liam, it was great seeing an active tournament finished without any hypos!

Also, congratulations to Kody, Chris and Sam for entering superb robots and making it a nail-biting 3rd round for everyone!

One last thing to say: w00000000t!!!

Oh well. Good job Daniel for winning the thing and props to Liam for a nice little side event.
