You're right. I mean, I will admit that I do like winning and tend to design my robots and RP with that in mind, but there's no real point in being an egotistical fuckwad and competing solely for the purpose of winning and nothing else. Deep down, I know that having fun with it is a big part of it as well, as is being innovative and introducing new things each time.
I mean, sure one could enter a whole team of brawny bricks (No offence, Lian. :P ) to try and steamroll everyone else with, but it just doesn't compare to something you've designed and built. Something you can really call your own, and I think that's one thing I love about competing here- the sheer effort and innovation that goes into all the robots here, and just the sheer enjoyment of getting good fights on here, win or lose.
But yes- I'll definitely keep that in mind. I'll keep building cool machines where I can, just enjoy competing, and who knows? Give it time, and maybe I'll come out on top. After all, getting there matters just as much as, if not moreso, than the winning.

Also i thought punch buggy vs bomb was the final week of the tournament or something, and while other people on staff thought Bomb should have won, I thought differently, and it was my result for the week. Look Alex I have nothing against you personally, I just thought Punch Buggy had the better RP for that match.
I don't know why you seem to hate me so much man, between Slammer and LoRE I don't even know.

*Takes back control of the thread*
Back on topics here, I've been trying really hard to think up a 4th arena for CBNBC but can't seem to think of anything (Or draw anything when something good comes to mind) I'm not sure if any of you are up for this, but can anyone design a new arena for the tournament? If not, then I'll wait until some inspiration comes to mind. I must ask though, please no pits or OOTA friendly arenas please. We have two arenas with OOTA capabilities already and pits... less said the better.

Here is the new F-Dynasty 3! Features tracks for the first time in it's series and features a puncher as it's weapon. It's normal set up is a plow/scoop, the goal of mounting on the puncher should be able to give it some extra force in driving the scoop underneath it's opponents. It can be swapped out for a standard puncher with removable spikes, a hinged wedge underneath and wedges beside it for overall front protection, skirts on the side and good old puncher goodness. All fear the Dynasty's charge!
