What in the name of Glub's festering, blistered shithole possessed you
to post this pitiful fucking one-liner in here, you drooling,
shit-drizzling, deceberate lump of half-dried iguana cum? To pose an
even more interesting question: how in the blue-veined fuck did a tard
of your appalling magnitude manage to find it's way here, to the very
core of our santum sanctorum? What horrible glitch in the Darwinian
theorem allowed you to escape your infancy without being drowned in a
puddle of your own shit?
Die, cocksucker! Die!
Go from this hallowed forum immediately and fling yourself into the
path of the first bus/garbage truck/septic tank pumper you come
across. Leave us at once, you shiteating squickvictim. Right the wrong
of your continued existance before you irrevocably fuck up even one
more wonderful thing. Wriggle from your trough in the sludge at the
bottom of the gene pool and into the drain, thus removing the plague
of your misbegotten genes from the universe. DO NOT USE A GUN! You'd
probably just fuck it up and end up killing one of the rare people on
this planet who are valuable genetic contributions to our species.
Go the fuck away right now. If you do not possess sufficient
wherewithall to find the exit, wait in place and one of the regulars
will be along shortly to rape your virgin shitpipe with a
diesel-driven auger and dump your worthless carcass into the nearest
available latrine pit.
Die, you insignifigant little fuckstain.

Your stupidity is exceeded only by both your aimless verbosity and
your obvious lack of any other way to spend your time since being
fired from your pizza delivery job for lack of adequate hygiene. NO
that's not the smell of pepperoni and extra parmesan cheese, that's
stench of the flora and fauna residing in your underwear!

And that's it?
A seventh-grade comment ABOUT MY UNDERWEAR?
That is the best grade of fecal material you can manage to fling?
I mean, that's not very suprising coming from a guy who hangs out
in alt.midi.music.i-wanna-fucking-die-i'm-so-lame, but it's still
disappointing, nonetheless. You are a peice of shit. You aren't even
human shit... that's more fun and is generally more appetizing. You
are merely a crusted gobbet of cat shit left unattended too long under
the sofa and unworthy even of burial. That which spawned you hardly
noticed as your anorexic form slipped past feline hemorroids and fell
lightly to the Berber carpet. Aside from a fleeting whiff of digested
kibble nobody else has noticed you, either. Not until now, that is.
But now you've hit the big time. You've managed to crawl into AT.
You've left your moldy residue on something we hold to be every
special.
And you got fucking clipped for it.
Well, now you've posted to this newsgroup twice and neither post
was worth a bleeding fuck. Like I said: it's not fucking suprising. Go
away, you mewling, pus-dripping, burbling pussy. Get the fuck out of
this place and do it quickly. The mess you've already left will
require weeks of scrubbing with a spoiled placenta to erase, we don't
want you contaminating this place any further. You are reviled here.
You think being stuffed into the AV room garbage can and rolled into
the high school auditorium was bad? There are people here who will
show up at your fucking house with a cattle prod, a belt sander, a
bottle of Astroglide and a frozen duck.
Now, take my advice and CRAWL THE FUCK AWAY!

It's no surprise that you've consumed enough shit to be a connoiseur.
Public restrooms are to you a veritable buffet. Did you first begin
this gastronomic pursuit as a child picking steamers off the ground or
when your family was panhandling at highway rest stops? Or perhaps
licking the asshole of your grandfather? Or did your traverse during
your anal birth from your whore mother's nether regions first whet
this appetite?

Oh not at all. I could never compare to the fame you've achieved since

It has been my experience that attempting to vivisect an
opponent's flame line-by-line is usually a mark of desperation in an
individual who lacks the creativity to come forth with truly original
material. You are a truly pitiful specimen, lacking even the most
basic of qualities which one must possess to be an entertaining poster
here. That quality is originality.
Or, to cater to your prepubescent vocabulary: You suck.
Most idiots, when flamed for their transgressions, limp off into
the shadows and revise their behavior in order to avoid such pain in
the future. But some who wander in here lack even the mental ability
to do that. They merely hang around, defending themselves with boring
drivel until they are ignored for a sufficient length of time that
they lose interest and wander off to annoy someone else.
Thus, I will deal with you.
You are a boring, repetitive, juvenile sack of premature
ejaculate who probably couldn't spell "cat" unless somebody spotted
you the "c" and the "t". I truly do regret flaming you in the first
place if for no other reason than in the time I wasted on you, I could
have sodomized my wife at least twice. I have wasted my time and
energy with you and will endeavor never to do so again.
I shall now leave you to your pitiful, deceberate existance
knowing full well that you are every bit as lame as you have suspected
throughout your life. You are shunned here because you lack
originality, creativity and any semblance of intelligence whatsoever.
None of your posts have shown that you have the capacity for anything
more advanced than parroting the techniques of others and flinging
cliched adolescent insults about. I hope for the sake of the gene pool
as a whole that you either die an excruciating death before you
reproduce or, if you have managed to spawn, that you and your children
die screaming with piano wire around your necks and a serial killer's
cock in your anuses.
Fuck off.
Die slowly.
And take as many of your relatives with you as possible.

I think that it is time to apply the belt sander of enlightenment to
the tip of your dick. Your handle makes me think that you are some
skinny, pimply faced, pud pulling, punkass, diminuitive fart knocker;
and your post makes me think that you probably have addled your brain
perhaps by huffing way too much glue and by reading and believing far
too much bullshit. So why don't you get yer nose out of that paper
bag and suck a fucking shotgun --if you cannot afford one then one can
be provided for you. You can even have one with a mint flavored
barrel.

In the court of "stupidity," you have just been sentenced
to a life of being ass-fucked.
You are clueless. You are being laughed at. And, the best
part is that, being clueless, you have no goddamn idea why.
Run along. You aren't a troller, you aren't even a pretender.
You can't even look at the the From: line, or the nickname and figure
out why.
What you are is: stupid.

ongoing antics of the "Ani-Pals" (think of "Big Blue House" being
crashed by "Meet The Feebles"), they've got some pretty fucked-up
cartoons. Most notable recent installments have been episodes of "The
Baby, The Immigrant, and the Guy On Mushrooms" and "Wonderman"'s
ongoing efforts to get his alter-ego laid.

discontinued hair-dye you used to achieve that piss-yellow hair? All
slung over to the side for that up-and-coming yuppie look - how
original. Of course maybe it's better than the catshit brown nature
laughingly bestowed you with, judging from your roots. And I thought
Glamour Shots were the cheesiest goddamn photos there were. (Lemme
guess, you have some of those too) Well, at least you picked most of
your prof's pubic hair out of your teeth before they snapped the
shutter.
I see you're a member of academia in poli-sci, helping to train
tomorrow's ambulance chasers and defenders of rapists and child
molesters. Wouldn't it be funny when after being bound and gagged late
one night, getting cut up and having your holes rough-fucked and
getting AIDS, one of your former students gets him off?
But I'm sure you'll be proud to help their career as they become yet
another well-paid, amoral, unaccountable cog in the political milieu.

What's that? It hard to understand you with that used butt-plug in
your mouth. I'm actually surprised that you found time to tear
yourself away from your box of Kleenex and lifetime subscription to
the NAMBLA journal to engage in these displays of your ignorance.
Repetitive? Hmmm...Let's put a bot out there to count how many times
you've used the term "squick"...

> I shall now leave you to your pitiful, deceberate existance
Tell me Mr. Buckley, did you perchance mean decerebrate? Or have you
taken to simply making the words up as you go along? In your feeble
attempts to fool the world into thinking you have a fucking IQ in the
double digits, you really should attempt to copy the words down
correctly. See now, aren't you sorry you spent all those nights trying
to get the family Doberman to bone you instead of doing your
vocabulary homework?
So, I'll let you get back to your telescope overlooking the preschool.
And when Tom Brokaw is telling the world about how the authorities
finally carted you away after discovering those prepubescent skeletons
under your rose bushes, we can all say we knew you when.

Ah, perhaps you mean such as our spelling-challenged, "deceberate"
friend and intellectual poseur drd? Or you - Misti the congressional
page clone? Goooollly, Sha-zam!
Certainly it's not surprising. The weak-minded ARE known to laugh a
lot...so are chimpanzees. And the latter, much like yourselves, are in
the habit of mindlessly hurling their own shit and making a lot of
screeching, senseless noise when they encounter that which overwhelms
and frustrates them. But then, we know how you relish licking your
fingers afterward.
Perhaps you should save yourself the embarrassment of discovering the
true and exact value of your opinion.
Oh, by the way, will you be my Valentine? :)

Rejected? Why? I mean, there are lots of easy ways to do that
(including being too Goddamn heavy), but how'd this guy manage it?
A few friends and I are building one. With all the shit that's going
into it, it's going to be nothing but a super-heavyweight class.
Horizontally-mounted fire saw coupled to an internal flywheel, along
with two grappling arms to hold the prey still as the saw does its
work.
Sure-- you gotta separate two bots that are entangled for more than 30
seconds, but a lot of shit can happen in that time. Like total
mechanical evisceration.
By the way, if you haven't shown this friend the "Scrotum Self-Repair
Story", you probably ought to. Might enhance his sense of genital
preservation.
ObT: The folks at BattleBots are always very careful to make sure you
know that you ought not be building or operating a "battle bot"
without qualified supervision. There's lots of fun stuff you CAN'T
use in construction, like explosives, firearms, flame, and
high-voltage, but that still leaves a lot of stuff that can just plain
fuck your shit up.
I'm not talking about those silly wedges or flippers, but about the
nasty ones with the spinning saws or rotating flywheels of kinetic
doom. "Nightmare" for instance (look it up at
http://www.battlebots.com/meet_the_robots/meet_robot_specs.asp?id=31)
looks like it's purpose-built to cut you off at the 'nads.

I'm a great fan of these programs, although generally prefer the UK
version "Robot Wars" better. They have a website at:
But speaking of something that did some very scary damage to a lot of
other machines [including some rather well-armoured rivals]:
That thing you see on the front is a car flywheel... heavy, lots and
lots of kinetic energy in that sucker... in RW3 it quite literally
tore a couple of other entries completely apart.
If anyone in this part of NZ is considering building an entry anytime
in the next few years, drop me a line. I may not have construction
skills, but I have ideas and money.

Well, it won't be until the tournament they're running at the end of
the year, so we've basically got all year to build it. And then, we
have to survive the preliminaries in order to get any airtime. Lots
of teams enter and don't even make it to the televised tournament.
Of course, usually they build shit that's way fucking lame, and they
don't have corporate sponsorship. We're being agressively un-lame,
and we've got a sponsor (who shall remain nameless in this august
forum).
I still haven't figured out how much an 18" fire saw blade costs, but
I'm sure it's pricey.
I kinda wish we'd thought of this a year ago, though, so we could've
been included in Season 4.0 . You'd have probably gotten a few
seconds of me drooling at Carmen Electra's augmented rack.

It will be able to scoot along faster than most people can run. The

Fuck Off - You're a miserable gimp drooling over a keyboard, leaving
greasy nose prints on the screen.
PAY NO ATTENTION TO THAT PENCIL-NECK SHITHEAD BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!
I strongly suggest you shut up before I move your furniture around.
There ARE some in this forum who display genuine humor and talent. You
are not one of them. Cliche'd scatological utterances incompetently
co-opted from the average junior high cut-down session aren't a
substitute for creativity. The muse of wit was CLEARLY on a piss break
during whatever slobbering, drunken date rape that resulted in your
misshapen creation.
Your sound like some teenage lithium case D&D devotee, your fogged
psyche so wrapped up in your little microcosm that you actually
believe you wield some sort of ability to affect others. Wild-eyed,
pecking away at a keyboard that's never been used to communicate an
original thought. While in theory you could have just ignored my
posts, in your obsessive-compulsive rancor, you absolutely HAD to tell
this guy off or you would flat-out fucking die.
By golly, so if I post something that pleases you I'm in with the in
crowd? Wowzers! That means a lot coming from someone who displays the
disjointed, inconsistent, unfocused collection of floating
abstractions and general horseshit that apparently comprises your
political and philosophical views.
You know what I wish for you? THE absolutely worst curse I can cast
upon you. That you are thrust onto a planet where they actually live
in the "anarchistic" manner you think you desire. I know YOU think it
would be a utopia where you could gleefully stock up on all the
taxpayer subsidized kiddie-porn "art" you want. However, the reality
would be quite different. Of course, there are plenty of places you
could go to get a taste of it. Why don't you go vacation in Rwanda or
the non-tourist areas of South America or S. Central LA?
So 'Splain me something Lucy. How is it you'll whine on and on about
animal rights, Rat bawls her eyes out over the suffering of some
potentially disease carrying rodent stuck in a trap, yet you have no
problem describing the incident of the decapitated motorcylist with

inconsistency.
I originally posted that boxing comment just as a passing humorous
whim, since I saw what SEEMED like some humorous bent in this forum.
To be honest, if I hadn't gotten that first response, you would have
been long forgotten. (And you will be anyway) I see that instead of
taking the ball and running with it, interestingly the first response
I got from your little society of debasement was one not of creative
impulse, but of semi-literate derision. Very revealing.
By the way, I don't really dislike Roberta. Truth be known, I don't
know her well enough to form an opinion about her one way or the
other. She probably is a decent human being. You on the other hand are
not someone I would leave small children alone with.
I suppose there's a certain satisfaction in poking fun at the stupid,
the inept. Something cathartic about contemplating the sadistic,
torturous demise of those who offend your sensibilities. But now,
let's stand back and ask - what else is there to you pal? You've spent
all this time wallowing in this little bile-filled world. The amount
of time you've pissed away on this one group alone is on display for
all to see. So what is your contribution to the universe? Have you
ever actually *created* anything? Even if not to sell it, just for
shits and giggles. Ever written a symphony, shopped a screenplay,
restored a car, come up with an innovative piece of software? Or are
you more of the cowardly and malevolent ilk of the virus-creating
hackers of the world? If it's the former, great.
But I wonder.
P.S.
Having read further into your posts, I see that MAYBE you actually
aren't a serial killer, though I have to wonder about the psychology
of someone who spends as much time as you have, engaged in a forum
such as AT.
You seem to have been dealt a bit of a shit hand by mother nature.
It's a little unclear to me what your gender is, the gist seems to be
that you're male. Now, ASSUMING you're not and have never been of the
NAMBLA-subscribing chickenhawk variety of homo AND don't associate
freely with those who are ("...we make no distinction between..."),
perhaps you have a shred of human worth. Of course, if you ARE, die
slowly anally impaled on a splintered fence post.
But, regardless, your politics are still fucked.

Ditto for myself and anybody living in the Tx/La/Ak area... well,

But I will provide beer, marijuana and snuff porn.
The fire saw thing sounds like a good idea, but my money's on a
horredously powerful, really fast wedge. Not a wedge of the "Voltarc"
type, but more like an inverted ship's hull. Drop in a pair of bench
grinder motors for propulsion, a few nice, wide, solid rubber tires
for grip and as much juice as you can get and you'd have something
very special.
Of course, the other option would be a nice, big 1-foot-wide,
2-foot-long steel drum with several 1-foot-long chains mounted on it.
put the thing in a horizontal position on the front and spin it up to
a few thousand rpm. It might not win the competition, but it'd be
great for disintegrating neighborhood pets/children/Jehova's

The idea I reckon is to adhere strictly to the KISS principle. Encase
your motors and electronics inside a metal covered concretewith sharp
bits on the sides that can run either way up, with a really fast,
powerful engine. Sod fucking pneumatic spikes or dumb axes, or
spinning blades and shit that can malfunction and break. Fast.
Heavy, run it screaming across the arena in the first few seconds
before the opposition have time to move and fucking pummel their
expensive electronics/pneumatics into little smouldering bits. If you
get damaged, hey, instant concrete or bricks are cheap.

Then why bother spending all the money, a blood-covered axe would do
just as well, and would be a damned sight cheaper. And much more fun,
can't you just see yourself running nekkid and screaming down the

I rather enjoy Battlebots, but I've seen a very distinct pattern
emerging. It's great to see vicious weapons like saws, hammers, grips,
and such, but the winners always seem to be the simple ones, usually
wedges. The winning bot always seems to be the one that can push the
opponent into the hazards. On-board weapons, at least in the little
guys, are just more moving parts to get damaged.
What I want to see is a Titan Class Tournament with *no hold barred.*
Anything goes. Start with a good sized Caterpillar chassis. Add two or
three heavy articulated arms from, say, an automotive assemply line
robot. Give it a pneumatic pile driver as a weapon. Or an industrial
cutting laser. Let a couple of these monsters have at each other in
the middle of a junkyard. Maybe add some landmines as field hazards.
ObT: Make these robots autonomous, and let one of these fuckers loose
in a metropolitan area. *fapfapfap*

The most successful bot I saw was a simple spinning thing. Low, flat, no
blades or spikes. It just spun really really fast as it trundled about.
Any time another robot tried to attack it, the thing's own spin would turn
the attack into being thrown across the chamber.
I think it actually lost on points, but it took no damage.

Ziggo, which is my favorite bot next to Taz-Bot is a simple little
spinner with two little pieces of metal sticking out of its dome. This
little bot wreaks havoc wherever it goes. It only lost out last year
early on because Salad somehow smacked it just right and it died.
Already this season we've seen Ziggo kick ass twice.
I have to disagree with the wedge philosophy- the flipper bots have it
all going on: Little Sister, also the one who kicked ass last week in
the lightweight category (Gamma Raptor??) and my favorite flipper, Toro,
all use the CO2 canisters to flip their opponents across the arena. And
if they land on their backs, they flip themselves right over again. I
know the CO2 cartridge mis-fired on Toro last year and caused it to lose
in the semi-finals, but typically, these bots kick major ass.

Yep-- wedges and pushers seem to dominate, especially in the lighter
weight classes, where the arena hazards hurt a LOT more. The Killsaws
are a mere annoyance to a properly-built (Super-)Heavyweight, but
they'll tear a lighter bot an entirely new asshole. And the weapons
at those lighter weight classes, with a few notable exceptions (Ziggo
comes to mind), tend to be good only for chipping paint.
On the other hand, every time you score a hit with a weapon, no matter
how lame, that's another point. Which doesn't mean shit if your bot
gets KO'd, of course.
I guess weapons are more effective in the heavier weight classes
because your bot can actually carry something that'll be worth having.
Like a 16" (or bigger) rescue saw coupled to an internal flywheel. Or
one of those high-pressure pneumatic flippers.

Use a combination of thermal imaging and millimeter-wave radar for

Maybe have it prefer targets that are making more noise to those that

I was watching a history channel show about coal mining and I think I
may have seen the perfect chassis. It's a remote-controlled device
called a "continuous miner". It weighs 35 tons, can be track or wheel
driven, has a 10-foot-wide maw of multiple emormous steel teeth and
eats through rock. I was watching this thing tunnel though a mountain,
controlled by some West Virginia inbreeder with tobacco juice running
down his chin and thinking to myself: "Now, am I hard because I'm
watching a machine that could conceivably eat a daycare in 2.8

Captain Sarcastic
I've always wanted a bot that would win by the use of a massive
electromagnetic pulse. This would not only shut off all enemy robots in
the area, but would also wipe out the cameras, and all electronic
equipment in the television studio. The only way I know of doing it
would be with a small yield nuclear device, which would also do away
with the audience of braying brats and their fat geeky parents (probably
a good thing) as well as the annoying commentators trying to make a
mountain out of a molehill.
Is there any other way of making a big EM pulse? I read somewhere that
the US armed forces can use high energy radio waves for disabling
communications in a very targeted manner, but I presume you need a
pretty big power source for this. Anyone know better? Or is this just UL?
Imagine taking the "EMbot" to the show. It has no wheels or tracks, it
just sits there looking like a small oil drum. Before the match starts,
there's an audiable whine as you charge up the capacitors. As the match
begins and the enemy robot rushes towards yours, you press the single
button on your remote control. Everything goes black, all the lights and
cameras go down, and the enemy bot coasts to a stop, as does every other
bot in or around the studio. Before the pandemonium starts, your voice
can be quietly heard saying "I win!"
ObT: Doing the same thing with a small nuclear bomb, as you stand 50
miles away It takes out a few city blocks, but you still win this
year's competition anyway. They won't send you back your bot because
it's (a) radioactive, and (b) vapourised.

Discharging a big enough capacitor at close range would do the trick,
but with energy storage comes the weight penalty. 'tis said that a
functional 1 Farad capacitor would, even in this age of smaller and
better, be literally as big as a house.
Another practical consideration: Any kind of EM discharge is prohibited
in the box. No lasers, plasma cutters, stun-guns, or (and I quote from a
recent on-air reading of the rules) "other electrical discharge
weapons". Also no flamethrowers, pyrotechnics, liquid sprays, or
un-attached projectiles, with a special mention banning railguns and
gauss cannons. (which, last I knew, were the same beast. The primary
distinction being that if it's ground-mounted/non-mobile, it's a
railgun, but if it's portable/mobile, it's a gauss cannon) More than a
foot of cable/chain is verboten, too. <sigh> The bastards basically took

Seems I recall hearing that there's a maximum 3-operator limit per 'bot,
but I could be mistaken. Other than that, I've never heard them mention
any limitation on control method, aside from the requirement that they
have some sort of kill-switch that can be remotely operated to shut the
whole beast down in case of emergency. That said, keep in mind that
"more elaborate" frequently includes "more weight", and usually means
"more breakdown prone"...
Them suckers take a beating in the box, and anything inside that's not
nailed down *DAMN* solid is prolly gonna become a hazard to the innards
of the beast.

It's the wrong answer anyway. Look up "pulse bomb" or "EMP bomb"
at Google. This uses a conventional explosive device as the
"battery".

Cool! Of course in America, you can buy:
http://www.plans-kits.com/kits/
DMEMPR Directional Microwave EMP Rifle (PARTIAL KIT) Partial kit.
This partial kit will include a 50,000W (yes it says 50KW) Watt X-band
military microwave magnetron with complete spec sheets from two
manufacturers and operational information to make it work (about 30
pages), EMP rifle plans (over 49 pages), and qty:3 (12KV @ 1A)
rectifiers. A device such as this can be made the size of a super soaker
water gun, it operates at 9.2GHz and with a properly tuned horn antenna
will have an effective range of over 300 yards (possibly more with
larger antenna). Such a device could possibly cause semiconductors to
burn out, microprocessors to malfunction, inductors to counter induce
and create CEMF, induce RF noise, cause ionization of air or gases,
cause junction rectification and erase computer data on hard drives,
disk and solid state device. Operating such a device may be in
violation of State or Federal Laws, consult your Local authority before
operating such a device. UPS GROUND SHIPPING ONLY DUE TO INTENSE
MAGNETIC FIELD FROM MAGNETRON.
(What about the poor UPS man?)
A few years back I lived next to noisy neighbours, the type that played
loud (like cranked up to full volume) songs until six in the morning,
while singing and drinking with their mates. This happened on average
every couple of nights. I had fantasies about a device like this, and me
blowing away all their fucking white irish trash pisshead hi-fi through
the walls.
Obt: Finding out my white trash neighbours had pacemakers - after frying
them of course.

I stand corrected. Last current information I had indicatioed that 1+

Hmmm... Found the Pop-Mechanics article. Interesting, but from what I
see, not really practical. Seems to me that trying to employ such a
beast in a battle-bot would result in your classic Pyhrric victory -
"Yup, he was kicking my ass, but then I popped off my EMP unit on him.
Man, did that thing cook off his wiring! Yeah, it blew my bot into about

I haven't watched enough to be a fan, but you can design a lame bot
that wins on points.
Remember "Buddy Lee Don't Play in the Street"? A couple of women put
it together for cuteness, basically a remote-controlled firetruck with a
My Buddy doll on it. Everybody hated it, I remember the crowd *booed*
when they won.
They won several more too.. with no weapons or armor, it was just a
ram-bot. It would get beat to shit every time, but they drove well and
kept attacking. Every time, carnage and doll parts everywhere, and every
time, they won on sheer offensive points. IIRC, they made it into the
semi-finals, and every time the announcers badmouthed them and talked
about what underdogs they were. I was impressed by the moxie it took to
put a remote-controlled toy against a saw-bot and WIN.
I like "Little Drummer Boy". A simple and suprisingly effective
weapon.. spiked drum on front that rotates at such a massive RPM that it
scores a lot of quick KOs.
BattleBots is fun, but they should ditch the lame faux-sportscasters
and the useless Bill Nye, and bring back the UK dude from Red Dwarf.
ObT: When the current craze of micro-nations renting out their domain
names wears off, they're going to have to think up new strategies.
Putting BattleBots against condemned prisoners armed with bats and
chains is a very old and weary AT idea, but would make'em famous.

Yeah...that bot won on sheer power. It had really big dense rubber
tires, great traction, and basically shoved its opponents around the
arena until they got hacked to death by the hazards. VERY unpopular
bot because it was so "cute" That's what happens when cunts build
bots...even Tantamouchi is too cute for words, but she seems to be
more of a crowd pleaser.

Yeah, but Little Drummer Boy got its ass whupped big time in last
season's semi-finals. Once that drum got stuck, it was an ineffective
bot with no wedge and no power to shove. That is the problem with
weapons...like Toro, once the weapon goes, you're fucked if your
weapon is all you have. Which, I guess, lends credence to the whole
wedge theory.

Unfortunately, EMP devices are specifically excluded, as well as any

Yes. A nuke's EM pulse is just a happy by-product of all that energy
being spent (when that gamma-ray burst hits anything conductive, Fun
Happens).
There are other ways to generate EMP. One way that's been on the
drawing board for a while (and may already be in the inventory) is to
rapidly collapse (explosively) a magnetic field in a housing that acts
as a directional antenna.
A simpler way is to construct a "HERF (High-Energy Radio Frequency)
gun." At its simplest, it consists of a shitload of batteries
charging a shitload of capacitors through a big-ass relay. When the
relay throws, the capacitors discharge into a directional antenna
coupled to a spark gap. Anything downrange gets flooded with
radio-frequency EM which, like the aforementioned gamma-ray burst,
does fun things when it hits anything conductive.
Of course, if you're standing too near the thing when it goes off,
you'll likely get some chromosomes scrambled for your trouble.
I just wish that more people were imaginative enough to employ these
things. Especially when simply blowing the shit out of people and
property is becoming so unfashionable and risky.

Aye, keeping it simple usually pays dividends, if nothing else in that
there are less things to get destroyed or malfunction. The Brit

I wonder if it would be less effective on vacuum tubes... I have
absolutely no grounds for believing that, just kinda seems to make
sense. Not that you'd find many of those around.. suck blow out all the
electronics in a building EXCEPT the metalhead playing his guitar too
loud. Also, could you shield a bots electronics with some kind of copper
or gold foil?

Better yet, stripping this thing down to nothing but guts, chassis and
vital armor, then mounting a SAW (Squad Automatic Weapon) on top with
a nice servo system and an integral camera uplink. I'm sure you could
shoehorn 1,500 to 2,000 rounds of SLAP ammo into it and still keep it
pretty mobile.
Then you set up a website where folks can control the bot and see the
carnage from the safety of their homes. You could charge people $500
USD a pop to drive the thing around a housing project/church
revival/hospital of their choice till their ammo counter hits zero.
For those of a more anti-authoritarian bent, give the thing a really
fast set of motors and a few RPG's and let it chase cops around. Then,
when the fad hits an acceptable plateau, you could give your customers
dildos/electric pockettwats that plug into their computers and give
more and more stimulation as the body count rises.

True.
The problem with spinning blades and such are the motor characteristics.
I've seen a bunch of bots with some form of rotating evilness attached,
which makes the merest contact with another object, comes to a halt, and
takes roughly 30 seconds to get spinning fast enough to do any harm,
because the motor has jack for starting torque.
Hammers/pickaxes and the like are stupid, because the guy piloting the
thing never has the coordination to actually swing the axe at the proper
time. I've seem some impressive hits, but I'd say the overall batting
average for these weapons is about .003. So for the most part, they're
just dead weight that occasional gets stuck in an obstacle.
The deadliest bot I ever saw was this contraption called Mauler. It was a
short, squat drum, with a suspension that allowed it to move in any
direction, and it was pretty quick. Its weapon was a +-shaped arm
arrangement mounted in line with the vertical axis of the drum, and the
ends of the arms were weighted, and the whole arrangement spun. Rapidly.
Rapidly enough to to severe, awful damage; films of the buildings messing
around at home showed how it would reduce a bowling ball to a spraw of
fragments.
Trouble was, first time it hit its opponent one of the weights broke off.
This unbalanced the bot to the extent that the gyrations induced as the
motor came back up to speed flipped the bot over. Let this be a lesson to
use competent welders.

Best part was when the filled it up with tiny stuffed dogs. Sure enough,
the dogs flew out early on. After the competing bot had completely fucked
up the truck, its operator turned his wrath on the plush toys.

Nye's okay, but they have him spout useless garbage. If he actually
talked about engineering in any-but-the-most-stupid terms, his presence
would be interesting. "Bobby Earl's using a 4 pole D-type DC motor rated
at 1/3 HP, with a starting torque of etc etc." Instead, we get "batteries
make it go."
Brian Trosko
> Is there any other way of making a big EM pulse?
Use large amounts of explosives to rapidly compress a coil inside a
magnetic field.
The amounts of explosive, the length of the coil, and the
strength of the field required to generate a substantial pulse generally
indicate that you'd be better off dividing the explosive into smaller
chunks, wrapping them with bits of the coil, and just blowing them up like
normal bombs.
Which also sounds like fun in a Battlebots arena.

Spoilsports. What about electromagnets? I'm picturing a big, heavy bot
that can barely move, but simply makes contact, turns on the magnetic, and
drags its opponent into reach of a hzard.

Nope. Railguns contain no magnets, and propel a projectile by means of
the force developed between the electric field and the magnetic field
generated by the passage of huge currents through the projectile. Guass
cannon is more of a catch-all term that includes a variety of magnetic
acceleration schemes; could be a coilgun, ferinstance.

High-capacitance caps aren't tricky. High-voltage high-capacitance caps
are tricky. And since the energy stored in a cap is .5CV^2, for a given
energy it's better to just go with a higher voltage cap, which will also
tend to discharge quicker.

If memory serves that was actually the second season of Mauler action.
In its maiden voyages it kicked metallic ass until the box saws knocked
something internal loose. The trash talking builders felt a bit ripped
off (can't blame 'em too much there, except they didn't care much when the
shit happened to the other guys) and vowed to come back even more bad ass
the next time. Chances were good that season they would have tossed blows
Mike Tyson would give both testicles to deliver (and judging by his voice,
probably already has) and ended the season atop a pile of sheet metal.
And the designers did come back with even more whup ass - by their own
claims they'd significantly upped the horse power. Problem was they didn't
need more horse power, the damn thing was already a one hit KO. In its
first (televised, at least) run the following season it was obvious the
thing wasn't stable as soon as it started rolling - proof positive that
sometimes too much power *is* a bad thing. Not to mention violating the
prime law of engineering and mechanics - if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
With its first hit (I don't remember anything breaking off Mauler, but
what the hell do I know) its opponent went flying but survived, granted
moving with the grace and speed of a Tijuana hooker the morning after a
Hells Angels bash. Mauler, on the other hand, went from shaky to wobbly,
and when its only moderately diminished rotational speed cranked back up,
the turtle went onto its back. Haven't seen a sign of the beast this season
(which technically was over in November, for anyone who showed up to see
the carnage live). Ziggo does a similar dance, but its a poor substitute
for the sheer mass and power Mauler had.

I wonder what would happen if an MRI machine went pop? AFAIK, it's a
pair of massive superconducting magnets bathed in liquid nitrogen, and
they keep it charged up because it holds the charge as long as the
superconductors continue to superconduct. You'd probably need a
prohibitive amount of explosive to blow up the casing and scatter the
magnets tho.
MRI machines have tasteless potential enough... people being killed by
metal objects flying into the machine, or tiny specks of metal heating
up, sparking, and starting fires inside of it. I can't be buggered to
look up any hURLs ATM. I wonder if they can produce excess liquid
nitrogen.. that would become an addition to hospital pranks.

you know, having watched a few friends pump the last of their money into
those fucking screen-based button-operated "one armed bandits", i'd like to
sneak something like this into, say, i dunno, the middle of the Crown

i've got a better idea for the electronic slot machines. make
counterfeit casino chips, mostly made out of solid plastic
explosive, with some detonating circuitry inside, including
a counter. you use the chip to play the machine, and it drops
into the bin inside, where it keeps track of how many times
the machine is played after it. (you, the perpetrator, meanwhile
go on your way, preferably out of the casino.) after X more
players have dumped their money into the machine, the gimmicked
chip detonates, destroying the machine (hopefully without causing
*too* much injury to the hapless sucker.)
i don't think there's any way to miniaturize an EMP generator
to fit inside a chip - you can't make the magnets that small.

well, the original intent was to disable and/or destroy
the slot machines, to keep a certain class of people from
pouring their life's savings and their income for the next
fifty years into the pockets of the casino owners - not
to simply kill all the patrons. shitfire, if you just want
to kill a bunch of gamblers, all you need to do is get an
automatic weapon and go apeshit. (if you're going to do it
in Atlantic City, however, please let me know in advance,
so i can get the film rights.)

ChiaBot was amusing, speaking of the wierder entries.
MY vote for Class act goes to Tentamushi (mark 1 through 8, I think it's
up to, now) the large ladybug 'bot run by the little girl. She goes in,
very businesslike, gets up to the quarterfinals or so, gets munged and
goes home calmly to Try Again. No tears, no histrionics, just that
quiet determination.
I can't decide whether that little girl makes me want to laugh, weep or
corner her like a raging hormone-crazed rutting elk! If I ever met her,
I'm certain I'd either want to rape her (propagating her genes for
posterity) or throttle her (as a danger to humanity)! She's evil, and I
mean that in the best possible way!
She's the first GIRL I've ever seen who I would bet on to climb up in a
tower someday with a cache of high-powered weaponry! Cross between
Shirley temple and Wednesday Addams.
Which 'bots do YOU think would make good sex toys?

5. Wasn't Craig Charles charged with rape?
------------------------------------------
>From the Red Dwarf FAQ:
Yes, but he was cleared of all charges.
On 8 July 1994, Esther Harman (a former stripper and Charles's
ex-girlfriend) filed a charge of rape against him. Charles was
arrested, imprisoned, and denied bail. On 25 October, after being
attacked (but not wounded) by a fellow inmate wielding a homemade
knife, Charles was released on bail.
The trial began on 20 February 1995 and lasted for two weeks. No
forensic evidence was shown to exist proving that a rape had
occurred. In his instructions to the jury, the judge stated that
just because a woman claims to have been raped doesn't mean she
actually was. The jury took less than ninety minutes to find
Charles not guilty. Afterwards, Charles made an emotional appeal
to the press for the anonymity of those accused of rape.

not being a casino owner, i have a slightly more charitable
view of things. here's an analogy:
if a person you cared about had a severe drinking problem,
you might, as a desperate attempt to keep this person from
drinking hirself to death, pour all their liquor down the
toilet. yes, it's just postponing things... but in the
meantime, you might be able to get them into a rehab program
or something, to get them more permanent help.
likewise, disabling the one-armed bandits might be a
desperate, short-term approach to helping someone with a
severe gambling problem.
or not.

the hypothetical example started out with one individual.
and, yes, a few of us have gotten away with admitting that

unfortunately, yes - very bitter and difficult to conceal.
of course, a hardcore wino probably has no sense of taste
left, so you might get away with it anyway.

"They" (CIA? DEA? Some other "alphabet soup" anti-drug organization?)
made headlines back in the 70's by running planes over the mexican
border and hosing down the pot crop with that stuff. Apparently, los
mexicanos saw their profits dying, and some of the quick thinkers went
"Well, jerk it, dry it, and ship it now!"
The resulting wave of hysteria actually *MIGHT* have slowed down
american pot consumption for a time. I remember reports on the nightly
news about it, and a few stoner friends being really uptight about
whether the bag they'd just bought was any of the poisoned stuff, etc.
Never heard about any deaths or anything like that related to it.
Being just a sheltered little Michigan Country Boy at the time, I
probably wouldn't have seen much of a local impact anyway... Most of the
weed smoked in the area was homegrown, and probably half of that was so
piss poor due to it being little more than sun-leaves, that a shot of
paraquat probably would have actually IMPROVED the shit!

Actually, you might get a pissed-off drunk provoked to break things --
your head, the house & furnishings, etc -- up. After that you might be
able to get the local pigs to arrest the drunk and feed 'im into the
local jail and rehab system. Or maybe the drunk would just go get some
more booze. In either case, shame on YOU! But it's the fuss 'n'
feathers of "helping" that gets you hot isn't it? You lousy

A couple of months ago, either Popular Science or Popular Mechanics did a
story on EMP bombs. They speculated that a crude bomb could be made for
around $400.00 worth of components. There was also cutaway illustration
of how the components are arranged as well as aa rough estimate of the kind
of damage one could create

i was stating this as a hypothetical example, of what
a person *might* do in such a situation, not necessarily
what *i* would do. in fact, it was meant as an analogy,
to illustrate why someone might want to destroy or disable
the slot machines being used by a compulsive gambler. it's
nowhere near a permanent solution, and might well, as you
point out, just piss off the person with the problem.
i'm not a do-gooder, except with regard to a very few
specific individuals, and you're not one of them. and
calling me a "Christ-felcher" is just ridiculous, and
proves that you haven't been paying attention.
