CFL Trivia and Fun Facts

Post by prince palatine » Sun Mar 24, 2013 9:32 am

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Here's some facts and trivia about Team Ectogasm. (My team of course XD)

1) (As far as I know) I have never won a match written by Philip

2) By contrast, most of my CFL career wins have been written by Josh

3) The Servant's Assistant was my first bot to reach 10+ wins in the CFL circuit

4) I am yet to beat Badnik in a MW and SHW fight

5) Hammer & Nails became my first bot to reach the play-offs that wasn't a LW

6) Doctor Thwack EVO was the first bot I entered that broke even (5-5 in ARC: Armageddon)

7) Team Ectogasm has never lost a MW or SHW match against Ice Cubed Robotics, but both teams are one a piece in the HW's and Ice Cubed Robotics is 2-0 against Team Ectogasm in the LW category.

8) I am yet to lose a LW match to Chris, with me being 3-0 against him.

9) Excluding the FF 45-0 win against Annoying Box Rush, the biggest dominating performance from my team came when Doctor Thwack EVO won 38-7 against ZED Leppelin, though both bots never came into contact with each other.

10) In all matches that ended in JD's, TSA never failed to score less than 11 points.

That's a few of mine, let's hear some yours guys.

> Despite Kraze 2 making the playoffs, none of my robots in ARC: Armageddon broke even.

> I have never won a match against Philip.

> Terabyte 2's only win that was not a FF was against FOTEPX's Headbuster 2.

> Incision is my only machine to have lost a Judges' Decision 0-45.

> I have lost 13 matches 22-23 and won 8 matches 23-22. I have lost 6 matches 21-24, and won 4 matches 24-21. Braveheart's semi-final and final match in Ruination: The Beginning both finished with a 24-21 Judges' Decision.

> Kraze has the same amount of KO victories as Freezerburn, 3.

More will come as I can think of them. =)

Team Blood Gulch Trivia:


-I have never Forfieted a match.

- Truth or Consequences was at one point the all time CFL wins leader (with 24 wins).

-Despite winning a championship in ARC Redemption, I did not do better than 2-2 in any single week that season.

-Zombie Killer was the only bot to be entered in all of the ARC "Round Robin Era" (Revolution through Armageddon) tournaments.

-I have a 33-32 lifetime record in 23-22 decisions.

-Of the 62 competitors (I can't include myself) on the CFL list, there are only 3 that I've had fights against them that I do not have a win: Diacronic, Shadywhiteboy, and Zigg. There are a total of 14 people on the list that I never fought.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Another random fact

In the last 2 years: Me, GF93, NFX and Badnik have been the highest climbers in the CFL rankings. (Only one win seperates me and NFX)

bump:

-I have 2 bots with a positive win record. If WhipCoil were to make the playoffs this season it would likely be my third. Same with Slither.

-Polar Star is the only robot I have entered into a competition that does not have a single win.

-Outside of Drowning City, I have an 11-11 record.

That's an interesting fact- by how many places for all of us, I wonder? I definitely remember being 34th out of 62 after FRR Dead Zone, and then up to 26th after Ruination.

I think Scatterbrain is currently the most successful Translational Thwack in ARC history. =P John's Agent Orange has the same amount of wins, but one more loss. Unless anyone can come up with another translational thwack that has happened.
