Well my twackbot is coming along nicely. If time permits, I might add some kind of weapon/defence mech. Also, i've got someones big flathead screwdriver from last event, my dad packed it thinking it was mine. I'll return it next comp. Also... could we PLEASE get an areana obstical/hazard working this event? What happened last time! Smile Also, i've got started on the "hungry hungry robots" (if you dont know what it is, you shouldn't) ball release mech using that pvc tube (hope you guys don't mind!). Very Happy
I dont mind if someone else gives it a go, and we can see which works best.

Along along those lines, its looking possible that the next version of Jolt will be ready for the next event (or definitely the one after). Its designed specially to suck all the luck out of other robots - those large holes left in your bots after a match are nothing to bo with me, they are just where the luck burst out Laughing

This sounds very like the Supreme Commander Tilford's "Psychic Void" on the top of Mauler.. - especially designed to suck in the psychic energy of the other combatant and destroy their confidence Laughing

Didnt you say something about accidentally running Jolts motor backwards the other day ? Wink

They did that once and promptly did the Mauler dance (IIRC), which S.C. Tilford attributed o the void running backwards and radiating energy instead of absorbing it.. Very Happy

@ Angus, you asked about the axebot but I can`t find that post now.
It will have to wait a while now until Oately get in some more of those chains and sprockets as I want to double up the weapon system and use a much heavier block splitting axe. Twisted Evil

How bout I put that Furby voice box off Refbot on my next bot and run it continuously to drive the opposition insane! "Wahoo, Fart He, He, He, Wahoo, Fart He, He. He, Wahoo,Fart, HE, He, He, Wahoo, Fart, He, He, He, Wahoo, Fart, He, He, He, Wahoo, Fart, He, He, He, ect! Twisted Evil

@ Brett, our friend Wayde is impervious to psychic voids, he often wears a stainless steel bowl on his head! Rolling Eyes
