Forum:Wiki Wars 2014

I figure I'd start a proper page, since I'm interested in conducting a Wars this year. Basically, each person gets represented by a robot in a standrad tournament. Entry is simple, just give me a list of bots that you'd like to have represent you in the tournament, then sit back and watch the sparks fly. There's no prize for winning, so I hope that people pick fun robots over extremely powerful ones - there will be Round 1 losers' melees, so every bot is guaranteed two fights. To ensure that we get a good spread of robots, you must give me at minimum five robot choices, and you can't choose any robots from this list. If you're feeling adventurous, and I hope at least one of you is, then instead of giving me a list of robots, give me a descriptor (eg "A red robot" or "A robot that was in Heat F of Series 5") to choose from.

We also have to decide if we're going to celebrate our wiki's anniversary, which is in February, or the 20th anniversary of robotic combat, which is in August. '''R A 2 ; aka Resetti's Replicas. ( My Talk )''' 00:36, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

I'll bite with your challenge RA2...


 * 1) Ceros (my unfortunate loser from Wiki Wars 2)
 * 2) Eric
 * 3) An overrated semi-finalist
 * 4) An underrated robot that never got past the heats
 * 5) RA2's favourite robot of series 3

Welp, Jimlaad wins. Anywho, these are my basic five choices:


 * Mute: Possibly my favourite replica to watch in Resetti's Wars.
 * Scraptosaur: Another flipper that I like. I can't see this one flipping robots out of the arena, but I spotted that Scraptosaur will be appearing in the New Blood Championship.
 * Rick: Not a strong flipper by any means, yet it's one that has won heats regardless.
 * CV: I didn't want to choose five flippers, and I saw CV all the way back in this video, so if by any chance, you still have CV, I'd like it on my team.
 * A robot of your choice that has achieved an OotA in your videos. The OotA doesn't necessarily have to have happened on the new arena with the high walls.

However, there are two robots that I would particularly like on my team, but they have never appeared in your videos before. If I can ask for robots that would require you to make them first, then I would like these two:


 * M2: My favourite robot.
 * Gyrobot: I can picture Gyrobot having a low damage output, but being an invertible full-body spinner, it could be a force in the tournament.

If you would prefer to stick with robots you've already replicated (especially if we are to start the tournament in February), then I'll stick with my first five choices. If M2 and Gyrobot can take part, I'll choose two robots to replace with them. I would like the tournament to be held in February. Toast Ultimatum  10:53, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

OK then, here goes nothing....I would like to request:
 * 1) King B Powerworks. This is largely due to the fact that is was the first Robot Wars competitor I ever saw (even though I didn't fully watch its heat), so its sort of special to me.
 * 2) Kat 3, largely because I feel its under-rated. If possible, the S6 version would be prefered over the S5 version you had before, but whatever you can do.
 * 3) Any competitor from Nickelodeon Robot Wars that is semi-decent. Not a cannon fodder robot (like the loanerbots), but at the same time not one of the four US Finalists. That'd be TOO easy.
 * 4) Any German robot that isn't Tsunami or Black Hole.
 * 5) Since I can't request my favourite robot (Firestorm), any robot with a front hinged flipper

I hope this is what you were after. CrashBash (talk) 11:25, January 16, 2014 (UTC)
