Now that I think of it, I don't think I have really won anything. Except for small amounts of money. (3? or less)

Winning as in stupid things like sending tokens away or the lottery or personal acheivements like climbing a mountain or winning a race.. don't understand the question ;o.

If sending away tokens is it: no.

I won a hot air balloon once, which was stupid because I made it in the first place. Not that it really mattered, I gave it away afterwards.

I won something very similar to this in my mineralogy class a while back.

It's a large apophyllite crystal the with lots of scolecite crystals growing around it. Won it for getting one of the highest grades on the final exam.

Me and the rest of the robotics team in my school built a robot that kicked all of the other schools' asses in the South California regionals, we lost in nationals to some Japanese school who made what one would call a mini-tank for their robot :S I got a medal for the regionals, along with 150$. Oh, and the fun of kicking the living crap out of the rest of the 'bots as well.

I won 14$ on some kind of lotto once. My personal record so far. It's goddamn impossible to win anything on lotteries.

And oh yeah, when I was 8 years I won a diabolo (http://www.yoyoguy.com/info/diabolo/basic.html) on a local lottery in school. Chance of winning were 1/100.

wooooooh battle bots are fun!
i had the best strategy for botfights tho - either use a goddamn powerfull spring to shoot a nasty ass bolt into the other bot (if that's allowed at all), or use a powerfull heavy spring as a main one-shot-try weapon to knock the hell out of the opponent.

I've always been partial to bots withhigh-speed rotating heavy objects, like Mauler. One one episode of note, Mauler ripped off this other bot's battle axe AND the armor on its backside. No need for aiming...

Bleh, what you guys are thinking of is way out of our budget. We had a couple thousand bucks to do what we could. We built a fast, heavy little armoured car with a wedge on the front. No fireworks or special weapons, even though there were others in the regionals that tried jigsaws, and little chainsaws or hammers. On the center of every ring is a ramp, which a robot can take speed on. Our one, with its best speed and weight, went airborne for a few seconds after speeding up the ramp, usually landing on another robot. We toppled a tall robot like this once, and broke a part of it with our bot's sheer weight and armour. Going down the ramp, we also toppled 'bots by letting them get close, and then speed up straight at them, lifting them on our wedge and tossing them down the ramp. The objective of every match was to gather boxes on the team's side of the arena, for it was a 2v2 match. The catch is that people can do what they want to hamper the enemy 'bots to put down their efforts for winning the round. Ours destroyed 'bots left and right, and still had time to gather alot of boxes to our side. Simplicity is often better than complexity. Our team had a great driver, who wasn't me :( I was one of the designers, and just marvled on watching my "little creation" kick loads of metal ass.

Sorry, but that just reminded me of the barret.

January 21, 2005, 7:34 pm
well this is another idea i always had in mind:
[IMAGE]
when an enemy bot will be over the red little platform, you'd press a button on the remote which will strech the blue spring, and will make the enemy bot flip.. or if the spring is really strong it could fly it to damned hell xD

@boosta - exactly :(
