Who are the judges going to be for this series?

Selecting Robots
Here is a list of the robots that finished as runners-up, but never won a trophy. Robots in the tournament will be the version that finished runners-up. For example, if Scorpion is chosen, it will be the Series 4 version, not any later version. In the case of the multiple tournament winners, Random.org will decide which version is used.


 * Multiple Tournaments: Behemoth, frenZy, The Revolutionist, General Chompsalot
 * UK Championship: Bodyhammer, Recyclopse, Robot the Bruce, Cassius.
 * Foreign Championships: Tricerabot 3.0, Probophobia, Lizzard, Philipper 2, Tsunami
 * World Championship: Supernova
 * Annihilator: Dominator 2, Onslaught, Arnold A. Terminegger, Spirit of Knightmare, Thermidor 2, Ripper, Rippa Raptor, Brute, Bunny Attack
 * Tag Team Terror: Scorpion, Suicidal Tendencies, Hydra, Barbaric Response, Run Away, Sir Force A Lot, G-Force, Spin Doctor
 * Other Events: Mega-Hurts (Forces Special), Lambsy (Minor Meltdown), Mute (New Blood), Infinity (University Challenge), 6 Million Dollar Mouse (Civil War), Snake Bite (House Robot Rebellion), Snookums (House Robot Rebellion) Vert-I-Go (Mayhem)
 * Non-combat Events: The General, Gnasher, Velocirippa, Dominator, X-Terminator 2, Spawn of Scutter

If I have missed any, let me know, but please note I have made the following exceptions;
 * I have not included robots that won awards, such as Hypno-disc and Dantomkia, because despite not winning a tournament, they did win something. There were only four of them.
 * I didn't include Cunning Plan or T.R.A.C.I.E, finalists in Series 1, because as a featherweight and a middleweight respectively, they have too much of a disadvantage.
 * I chose not to include robots that were nominated for awards, such as Cerberus and Sir Chromalot, as there were too many of them, and it made for a very long list of nominees.
 * Seeing as there was no winner declared in the Extreme Warriors 1 House Robot Rebellion, I did not include the finalists - if there was no winner, technically there was no runner-up, only finalists.
 * The UK vs Germany Special ended in a draw, and Fluffy and Das Gepack were both given trophies - therefore they jointly won, and there was no runner up. (Fluffy won an award anyway).

Thirty two robots will be needed for the tournament, please pick 15, and the 32 with the most votes will be included. One last thing, ther are teams with two robots on the list, such as the Dominator team and Team Cassius. In case two of their robots make the top 32, only the one with the most votes will be included.
