Damn you and your potatoes Aaron :P

You're right about the lack of a starter Aaron, it's pushing the weight as it is...then again The Big Cheese didn't have a starter and it never stalled, despite being flipped and rammed quite a lot (are you reading this Mark?

)

I'm not too sure that The Big Cheese used a petrol engine to power the hydraulic pump...

Re: FRFFT: Series Three

Welcome back after a long break. Now its the holidays, I'll have a lot more time on my hands

PLAYOFF

From Vancouver, in Canada, Blue Hurricane!

From Toronto, in Canada, Tira VI!

Roboteers, stand by!

Whoever wins this becomes third place in the third series. Samuel with Blue Hurricane knows whats at stake, and too Kody with Tira VI.

The house robots are Mr Psycho and Sir Killalot, the FRFFT's newest assets.

3-2-1: Activate!

Both robots spin up and charge towards each other, but Tira swerves at the last minuet. Blue Hurricane turns around, and this time makes contact with the side of Tira, making some sparks and a slight tear, but nothing else. Tira turns to use its rear wedge and slides under Blue Hurricane. Blue Hurricane slides off before Tira can use its flipper. More scratches made to the armour as well there. OH! Tira's disc connected with Blue Hurricane and the sparks fly! Blue Hurricane heads towards the end of the arena towards the pit release button. It presses the button and down goes the pit. OH! Tira came charging in again and the force of the disc lifted one side of Blue Hurricane up. It recovers and spins up again. Tira gives chase. Blue Hurricane passes Tira on the side and clips it, making another tear. Tira needs to do something here if its going to go to the judges. Now it turns around to use the flipper again. Blue Hurricane tries to avoid it but ends up sliding up and into the wall! Rebounding off, into the CPZ! It gets away as Mr Psycho comes in, but it isn't spinning up yet. Tira comes in and flips it over. Blue Hurricane gets away and now it begins to spin up. Tira makes a move and they collide again! Something came flying off there! What was it? Hopefully nothing important. Blue Hurricane hits Tira again, this time peeling part of the front armour back! The fight for third place is heading in Blue Hurricane's favour at the moment. Tira turns around, but Blue Hurricane isn't falling for that and just swerves away as Tira reverses. Now it comes in. OHH! Spinning Tira away. Is the disc on Tira spinning? Just about, but it looks a bit wobbly! Kody remains confident and charges forward at Blue Hurricane again. The spinning discs collide once more and this time Blue Hurricane comes off worse! It appears to be stuck on Tira's disc. Tira isn't moving as well. Kody can't do anything. Blue Hurricane can't move too since its wheels are off the ground. Refbot has a look and pushes Blue Hurricane off the disc! It gets away and spins up, but Tira isn't! Did that impact immobolise it? Samuel moves forward and OUCH! The spinning ring slices into the front armour of Tira, around the disc, and tears part of it off! Refbot comes in. Kody knows he's out.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Its all over for Tira VI. Blue Hurricane comes third place! Now Sir Killalot can come in to sweep the mess up. He grabs the back of Tira and lifts it into the air! Parading it around to the audience, the last humiliation of Tira as Killalot dumps it into the pit. Blue Hurricane, I think, very lucky there.

Cease!

Tira is out. And theres no award for fourth place!
Blue Hurricane takes third place!

Well done to Samuel.

Later on

GRAND FINAL

Infusion VS N3

And now a disclaimer.

My imagination seems to be broken, so I apologise for inaccuracies or mistakes. Comments are welcome. Also, I have discovered some of Series 5 of RW on Youtube. That's all

Re: FRFFT: Series Three

Welcome to FRFFT: Series Three: The Grand Final! Its been a short show, but lets see how our two finalists got this far.

In Round One, Infusion battered SOID and sent Back to Rock back to the scrapheap. N3 disposed of Bandwagon and took it to the judges with Brutalis 2.1.

In Round Two, Tira VI was no match for Infusion, who immobolised it, and N3 calmed Blue Hurricane thanks to the judges.

I'm here with Martin Smith, one of the judges.

Me: Mr Smith, who do you think will win?
Smith: I'm not too sure. If N3 keeps away from the ring of Infusion, it could get under the wedge, but Infusion is hard to get even from there.
Me: Thank you, Mr Smith.

See you later, that was just the beginning

Also Joey, how do you get a small cubed sign?

Re: FRFFT: Series Three

GRAND FINAL

From Queensland, in Australia, Infusion!

From West Yorkshire, N3!

As usual, we have Joey with N3 and Aaron with Infusion.

The house robots in this fight are Matilda and Cassius Chrome.

3-2-1: Activate!

What a fight this should be. Infusion spins up and tries to find N3s weak spot, but N3 makes a sudden turn and gets the forks under the front wedge! Pushing Infusion, but not for long as Infusion backs away, clipping the side of N3. No damage though. OH! Now there's damage. It got another hit in, Infusion and made a small tear in the side of N3! N3 gets away as Infusion turns around. This time N3 is ready and gets the forks under the wedge again. Turning Infusion around and now the beak comes down! Will it try and tear the wedge off, N3? Infusion pushes back, but N3 shoves it into the arena wall! OUCH! The wall is broken, but not enough to stop the fight and fix it. N3 gets go of Infusion, who's weapon has slowed because of the impact on the wall. Joey turns around to face Infusion again, but Infusion goes towards the pit release button. N3 moves in and connects with the ring, causing sparks, but no more damage. Down comes the beak. The pit opens, yawning at the two opponents that are locked metres away! Infusion pushes N3 away, but N3 is still holding its ground. It lets go as Refbot has a look. Who has been the more aggressive? I'd say N3 at the moment. Infusion spins up again and charges at N3. N3 swerves to avoid the wedge, but is once again hit by that disc! Now there's a rip in the front of N3. OH! Infusion backed into it and something goes flying off! Was it one of the forks? I don't know. N3 is damaged, but still going. The beak looks a bit bent. The forks get under the side of the wedge of Infusion and lift it up. The beak comes down, onto one of the wheels! Pulling Infusion along, N3, can Joey bring it to a CPZ or the flame pit? It backs off, dropping Infusion in the process and suffering more damage in the process! As it dropped Infusion the ring clipped one of the forks and bent it! Infusion gets under the front of N3 and pushes it towards the CPZ. Cassius Chrome is waiting, but lets be honest, what can he do? N3 gets away, only for Infusion and Matilda to come in. Infusion pushes N3 into the wall, but N3 gets away as Matilda's flywheel comes in. OH! Infusion gets under Matilda and pushes it into Cassius Chrome! I don't think the house robots will be happy about that. N3 takes advantage and tries to get under the sides, but the disc makes a cut in the beak. The last ten seconds count down. A brilliant fight, great tactics on both sides. It'll go to the judges as N3 runs into Infusion one more time, trying to push it towards the pit, but Infusion gets away at the end.

Cease!

What a fight! The judges will make their decision, based on Style, Control, Damage and Aggression. Lets see the scores!

N3: S: 2 C: 2 D: 2 A: 3 Total: 9

Infusion: S: 2 C: 2 D: 3 A: 3 Total: 10

Infusion is the winner of FRFFT: Series Three! Well done to Aaron. He's taken the title from Joey, but both did well. We'll see Infusion in the next series, if there is one.

Thank you all for entering. Goodbye for now

So, whats next for me. I'll be taking a long break in the summer holidays, you won't see more from me until around Christmas probably. See you later
