Oh, what the heck....I'll enter Spring-BOK! and Bulldozer.

I believe Bulldozer's stats are in the PTT return tournament, or whatever it's called...I'll fish up Spring-BOK!'s when I can.

Re: x-mas crazy bots 2

I can't be arsed to find the stats for IAN or Bandwagon right now so I'll ignore them. :P Anyway, I doubt Gehenna can damage my 6mm G9 Titanium exterior armour that much so I'll primarily be going after that this match. SOTAR's powerful and invertible so avoid that myself any way I can...Spring-BOK! doesn't seem like much of a threat right now but avoid it anyway. I have decent and reliable enough drivetrain to do this.

Main tactics: Avoid Gehenna's font-higed fipper :P (I should be able to get under it anyway but still), try and wedge Gehenna and drive it straight into SOTAR, damaging the pair of them. Primarily focus on doing this the entire match, or otherwise just be a nuisance to Gehenna any way I can. Use the flipper only for self-righting. Only attack the others if they attack me, and once they're distracted go after Gehenna again.

Best of luck all.

Re: x-mas crazy bots 2

It's too late or early or odd ball hour-y in the morning for me to think of a proper stratagy, or to find and read up on the other bots I'm up against, so I will run thusly:
Be a jerk. Attack everything that could possibly look at SOTAR funny (if robots could be said to look.). Try to not be so agressive though that any other bot can turn around and half kill mine before I get a shot in. Take advantage of any opening wherein someone's weapon is compromised/half crippled/flipped over and can't self right right away for some reason, ect.
Hit and run tactics are fun.

Good luck, other people who probably have a better plan then I do.

Re: x-mas crazy bots 2

half arsed tactics, brought to you by L'Oral, because your worth it

right, i would be more than willing to team up with anybody here should they want my help :P, im not really researching this one so im just assuming everyone is better than me :P IIRC bandwagon was easy pray back when mark was active, so il defo keep an eye on that, might be able to get in a quick attack in with my flipper, same ol' hit n' run tactics basicly :P

Re: x-mas crazy bots 2

OK due to limited time, this will still happen, except it will be a massive free for all

On that note, LET THE WARS BEGIN!!!!!!


Gehenna vs Wedginator X vs Bandwagon 3 vs SOTAR vs Spring BOK vs IAN

OK 3....2....1 ACTIVATE

Bandwagon starts us off by charging IAN towards the OOTA zone and flips, but IAN stays in and self rights, now IAN
tries to come back into this fight, flipping Spring-BOK over, Wedginator X Gets under Gehenna and drives into a fully
spinning SOTAR, the impact has flung Gehenna across the arena and SOTAR's disc has stopped working, for the moment
anyways, Gehenna comes back in on IAN, flipping him over as Spring-BOK flips Gehenna over as the pit descends, now
Wedginator X gets under Gehenna and rams it into the pit, oh dear AJ is out, meanwhile, SOTAR is still having trouble
spinning up as Bandwagon 3 charges in and smashes it against the wall, now the blades have stopped working entirely
Spring-BOK comes in and flips SOTAR out of the arena, Tracy is now eliminated as IAN gets round the side of Spring-BOK
and flips it over, IAN now tries to get him in the pit but Spring-BOK self rights and gets away, Bandwagon gets to the
side of Wedginator X and flips it over, Wedginator self rights and charges Bandwagon down and flips it over into the side
of the arena and pins him down. Spring-BOK now rams IAN in the corner with the pulverizer pounding away on him, IAN
is in a sticky situation here as Wedginator backs off Bandwagon who self rights and flips Spring-BOK up and over, this is
turning out to be a great fight as Wedginator rams Spring-BOK down the pit, 3 left as IAN flips itself back over and gets
under Bandwagon 3 and flips it over, but Wedginator comes in, charges IAN to the OOTA zone and flips, OOOH, that was
close as IAN just survives, but Bandwagon 3 comes in and miss-times his flip and luanches himself over, Wedginator now
takes advantage and flips it out, the champ has gone as IAN takes on Wedginator and flips him over, Wedginator flips
back over but IAN gets underneath and shoves Wedginator towards the pit, Wedginator is forcing back, Look at those
tyres screeching trying to get some traction, look at the marks left on the arena, IAN backs up and rams Wedginator
once again at full speed to the pit, but Wedginator drives over the top of IAN, and turns round, flips IAN and dumps him
in the pit. Kody is screaming with delight as he does a victory spin, Poor old IAN fought hard and well, but was undone
when Wedginator get behind him

Congrats Kody, enjoy the trohpy, but its not over yet.....
