I think we need a proper definition of what a shuffler and a true walker is.

Simple:

True walker = Mechadon

Shuffler = anything else that uses 'legs'

shufler: lefs stay flush with floor purpously

But that would mean that robots such as Jim Struts, Miss Struts, and Stomp are shufflers.

no, what I mean is
it's a shuffler if the legs NEVER lift off
walkers are just the same exept THEY LIFT OFF


they are walkers

Mechadon is the only true walker. The end.

If that's the case, then aside from Mechadon, every robot, real or fictional, that uses legs in not a walker and should never get a bonus. This includes Night Train and 1-hit Wonder.

I certainly wouldn't call that a shuffler.

whatever 1-hit wonder is, however, it is definitely not a walker

fuck, forgot about Pressure Drop, sorry

Seriously though. just give up, Mark. 1-Hit Wonder is not a walker. There is no possible way it could be a walker. It is a shuffler. It can only be a shuffler.

Now do listen to Alex and re-stat it so it's not illegal.
