Well it ain't. If I fought against that thing, I could say in my tactics that your front wheels wouldn't move because of the skirt in the way and any result writer would agree.

Alright first of all, Kody calm the fuck down. You act like this kid is fucking up your whole world by posting paint pics. Calling someone a fucktard every time he posts isn't under the banner of constructive criticism and that's not the environment we intend to foster. You complain about him posting at a machine-gun pace but from what I can see you are sitting at your computer molesting the refresh button just for a chance to reply to him. Let it go and cut the flaming.

As for Sparkey: You need to understand that most of us are twice your age or more and have been doing this for a decade. I have seen worse than your bots, but they improved much faster. Chris, Phil, and I have all offered advice which you promptly ignored. We don't ask that you be a CAD expert or a gifted artist, but we do ask that if you enter bots in our tournaments they must have some sense of order and structure. I'm not asking for well defined slots that the wheels stick out of or perfect proportions between different views but at least let me be able to tell what your bot is or does. Although I'm on the staff I don't help oversee ARC or I honestly wouldn't have let you enter what you entered this season. If you take your time and learn the tools you can do better. Just the pace at which you are producing these drawings shows me that you aren't taking enough time to refine them. I made my first Rhino CAD when I was 14 (X-Storm) and it could still be considered a useable render by today's standards (I'm almost 24 now). The reason is not that I had any natural skill, I just took the time to learn the tools and apply them carefully.
