Martijn's little underdog tournament!

[majinb]

Allright, a little something to get me writing again, how's that? Im gonna move away from my usual forte and do real robots this time, even better, real robots that YOU want to see do well for a change. For this tournament Im only gonna accept real robots that participated somewhere between Robot Wars Series 1 and 7 (1 and 7 included) that never reached the semi-finals. So if there's 1 bot that you think should have done way better than it really did, this is your chance to show everyone what it's capable of. To get a look at what robots would and wouldnt apply check the next few links:

http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/robotsr ... report.htm
http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/robotsr ... report.htm
http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/robotsr ... thWars.htm

Also, robots that never made it to the semies whose TEAM DID make it to the semies once are accepted, but only if the robot that didnt make it to the semies is significantly different to the robot that did make it to the semies. For example, Anarchy is accepted (even though 101 reached the semies in the past) yet Cassius 2 isnt (too much like Cassius 1).

What Im looking for is 8 people, may go up to 16.

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

and before I forget, Joey and Andy reserved places over MSN, so thats either 6 or 14 people to go

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

Anarchy for me please

(that site could perhaps use a bit more info on the earlier series - just a thought)

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

I'm just going to be stupid here, but, since I've gotten at least one email from the Plunderbird boys(Mike and Bryan), I might as well enter Plunderbird 5.

EDIT: And when you make Mechanical Noise Series 3, Reserve me a spot.

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

SMIDSY, please. S7 version.

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

Where did Guzunderbot come from? I'm just curious, because I saw it get flipped out by General Carnage in Series 5. I think I'll enter it for fun, but Napalm II, also for fun

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

Well, after thinking it over, I've decided to replace Plunderbird 5 with Lightning.

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

I would have said, personally, that Napalm 2 would have been too similar to Napalm 1.

Anyway, I'm going to pick......Big Nipper

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

u.f.o please

[majinb]

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

1. Joey - Anarchy
2. Andy - Fluffy
3. Mark - Lightning
4. Kody - SMIDSY
5. Elliot - Guzunderbot/Napalm II??? your post wasnt entirely clear but I agree with Chris that Napalm II is too much alike past semi finalist Napalm I
6. Chris - Big Nipper
7. Jack - U.F.O.

PS - If the series version of your entry isnt clarified Im gonna assume its the latest version that ever appeared on tv. Just letting you know .

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

Guzunderbot will do

Of course, it was rubbish on Robot Wars and it'll do rubbish here, but, I thought why not

[velociraptor]

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

I'll enter Gemini, if that's OK.

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

An underdog tournament, eh? Here's hoping it goes better than the one I tried to start.

I'd like to enter Hydra (RW7) please.

[swanaldo]

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

I will enter Trax of course. series 7. If there is still room that is.

[knightrous]

Re: Martijn's little underdog tournament!

Can I enter 259? :P
