Oh please. Do you remember anything? At the end of Spanish Inqusition and The Random Thread you said you were leaving. Stop avoiding the truth and just face it.
What will it be? Will you stay or will you go?
I am fine with either option. Just make up your mind and stop flip-flopping like Kerry.
Alex, may I ask in advance if there is anything wrong with Walk Idiot Walk?

Well, Im going to try to revive this thread since Alex is about to write...

Predictions

Flipping Hades (4) vs Panicking

The seed.

Acid Burn vs Flank Attack 2

Acid Burn; no way those massive claws are going to survive blows from Aarons bot.

I think Im able to survive some hits; while it may not be as powerful, I was able to survive and beat Tengu. So, that should count for something.

Im gonna try to box rush it before it can do anything. It has an 8mph top speed, so it shouldnt be very hard; he isnt really going anywhere. After that, just clamp and pit my friends, clamp and pit.

Head D.
Flipping Hell (4) vs. Panicking
Acid Burn vs. Flank Attack 2


Flipping Hell vs. Panicking

3€¦2€¦1€¦Activate

Both machines, with their brisk top speed, get off to a quick start, however, Panicking, as the slightly quicker gains the advantage and dives around the side, plunging the sharp forks into the arena floor beneath the aluminium avenger that is Flipping hell. The forks raise and the wheels of flipping hell are raised from the ground allowing Panicking to dash forward, slamming the unfortunate fourth seeds into the invulnerable tungsten walls. The sparks flow outwards, however, the heavy impact knocks Flipping Hell free from the grasp of its opponent, and a sharp veer to the left brings the dread flipper sliding beneath the hinged skirt of the other machine.
Immediately the weapon fires and no doubt Martyn is currently living up to his robots name as he watches his machine glide serenely through the air and impact, not quite so serenely, into the thick tungsten walls about 10 foot up, then fall to the ground for another nasty blow. Panicking sets off again, however, this time it is noticeably more sluggish in its movements, a motor would seem to be damaged by that heavy inpact, and to be honest, after such a nasty attack, its surprising that it€™s not more damaged than it is.
However, in some ways that one blow was enough, as now, lacking the manoeuvrability it had before Panicking is easy prey to a second attack by Flipping hell: this time however it positions itself between Panicking and the pit. Now, in a single smooth motion, it drivers forward, plunges its wedge beneath the skirts once again, and then launches Panicking.
Panicking glides through the air once more, slowly twisting as it moves inexorably onward, over the pit, until it enters the gloom on the far side of it, and thus its true fate remains unknown, as the few that speculate of an area beyond the pit tend to believe it to be an area outside the arena and thus doesn€™t count.

Panicking falls to its doom (probably€¦)

Flipping Hell advances to the Heat Final!




3€¦..2€¦..1€¦.Activate

Acid Burn begins to whir, its vast, devastating shell blurring in a seemingly unstoppable arc, menacing in the extreme. Flank attack charges, jaws wide, ready to engulf its acidic adversary. However, the maw of Flank Attack is not broad enough, and instead as the jaws close around Aaron€™s machine, it tears. There may have been some confidence there from beating tengu elsewhere, but the power acid burn possesses dwarfs tengu€™s to the extent that it is irrelevant. The panels themselves are too tough to be damaged, however, the sheer force tears them free, ripping the bolts and screw that hold it in place from the chassis, leaving open hole in the claws - in this instance the rubber proving bad in that it let the teeth get more purchase upon the claws. Acid burn doesn€™t relent, the uses the sheer force of its power to tear apart its foe, devastating the chassis. Flank Attack is literally shredded, the clatter of metal hitting the ground echoes throughout the arena, and smoke begins to billow menacingly forth from the carcass of Flank Attack.

Acid Burns sears its opponent and Advances through to Heat final!
