Your robot isnt always being picked on Alan. What about my comment about your awesome win over THZ in Colchester. No-ones said anything about that :sad:
And also Tom, Alan, David. *Looking to bring back up our debating* (Given Toms turned in, Ill get started since Im awake) Why are you saying that the reason Merlin looked like it was moving slowly is because Im comparing its speed to the speed of Storm 2.
The last I heard, Merlin could move at 15mph. After/During the Storm 2 fight, it only moved at 12mph!
I think that counts as less speed and more damage.
I will now say that I think that Storm 2 was extremely unlucky to lose against Merlin.
But I will now also say that Merlin was unlucky in its semi-final choices. Even if Iron Awe 3 lost (which I thought it would), I dont think you wouldve beaten Turbulence.
EN GUARDE!
*Holds out the pen - its mightier than the sword - and waits for Alan/David or Tom to reply*
Your entitled to your opinion, as I have already said, Merlin was moving slower at the beginning of the fight, therefore storm 2 does not get the points for damage it did not cause.
Tom
P.SI didn€™t realise we were in a fight! But if we are going for one, I lunge at you with my mighty stick!!!
But I will now also say that Merlin was unlucky in its semi-final choices. Even if Iron Awe 3 lost (which I thought it would), I dont think you wouldve beaten Turbulence.
Behemoth was in the was in the final of the Winter Tour not Turbulence.
1)Dan, Merlins a good robot. But Turbulence was the flipping great UK Champion!! Merlin cant match that! Turbulence (new or old) wouldve sent it flying!
2)Tom, we are not having a fight, and even if we were, I wouldnt use a pen
Actually Alan, you have a point, but I have another - since when did I say Turbulence would beat Behemoth? I just said that Merlin wouldnt beat Turbulence due to things like ground clearance and flipper power.
I mean I would love to see a battle between you and Turbulence (And Ive seen the one youve currently got on YouTube:wink
I think merlin and turb have only been in the arena 3 times together (twice with old turb, once with new turb). These have always been melees, i think the result stands atm Merlin: 2, Turb: 1. But with a melee you cant judge what robot is better.
its all on the day to which robot will win. on paper specs are good to decide which robot is better but in the arena is a totally different matter. on the back of the uk champs i went to portsmouth with high hopes and didnt win a battle.
David, I meant the final battle at Godmanchester.
And Im basing the results on (Ive already said this)ground clearance and flipper power.
And I meant you would lose to Turb in a 1 on 1. In melees you can attack a machine that is distracted attacking someone else. But in 1 on 1s, its a lot closer.
I actually would like to see a 1 on 1 with Turbulence and Merlin. Good fight it would be. But Id back Turbulence
