: gone are the days when we shall hear "our robot's gonna kick ur robot's a.."
: i guess that's one good thing about this year's format. i recall posting something a year ago about this. but the great thing is this year, when someone says that popular phrase, i often hear a reply saying "why would you want to do that??? you're partnered with them all the time!"
: no more bot kickers? no more ramming bots....?
: *note, rambots is actually not based on the animal, but was actually inspired by a poster of Rambo.

HEY ANTON. I SUPPOSE IF YOU WERE SADDO/MASECHISTIC AND ON A MISSION FOR SELF DESTRUCTION, WOULD YOU SAY " MY BOT WILL KILL YOURS!!" BUT I GUESS IF YOUR INTO TOTAL OPPONENT ANNIALATION WE WOULD BE "BATTLEBOTS" I SUPPOSE THE FOLKS AT FIRST WANT TO DISTANCE THE ORG AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE FROM THE "ANTI-LEAGUE" OR A PERVERSE VERSION OF BOTS AT PLAY. THIS GAME IS SO COMPLICATED THIS YEAR THAT I THINK MOST BOTS WILL SELF DESTRUCT FROM THE HUGE ARRAY OF INPUT THE FIRST TORMENTORS ARE THROWING THEIR WAY. INSTEAD OF SAYING "NEED MORE INPUT" THE BOTS WILL BE SAYING "TOO MUCH INPUT!!!!" PMGRACER
