Lets design our own battle bot! :-)

[Adul]

Saw the show for the first time, and I think us anandtechers could build a better one. Any ideas you guys wanna throw in it?

 

[GreenBeret]

Yes, but I'd need to see that show so I could better apply my ideas.

 

[Chooie]

You're just slightly behind the times, Adul; I've already started amassing contributors for my project! It's already in the final stage of planning, and the design is pretty much solid. It's going to be a middleweight and about 110 lb., and will be ready by summer. The hardest part about such a project is finding local contributors. Everyone who wants to help is so far away We might want to make a couple different robots, one for each region of the US. I'll take care of the northeast, you can do southwest. Team Anandtech 0WNz j00 4ll!! Maybe we can even get Anand to sponsor us

"The Anandtech Stables"

Sounds pretty dam slick.

 

[BiggieN]

sweet...we can even use that robot to run rc5 cracking while its battling....HAHAHAH how's that for an idea?

 

[Adul]

I like your idea BiggieN

 

[GreenBeret]

Can anyone point me to a page with the rules/pics of successful bots?

 

[BiggieN]

i'm thinking saws and tons of them....nothing cutesy. we gotta destroy...we can get sponsors like a certain auction site....

 

[BiggieN]

EBAY?

 

[BiggieN]

yeah...that's it...and maybe Staples? Team Anandtech BattleBot!

 

[Adul]

Choi has the rules. M<aybe he can post them

 

[Fingo]

Give it a bb/paintball automatic so it can spin around and bust the hell out of oponents. And for the stronger ones, small explosivs! Just come up to a foe, drop and run. It could also fire these! That would be fvcking cool!!!!

 

[prodigy]
