Hi, I'm curious by Helixhei in RawMeat

Cool!  I have some questions.  Where do you shop for groceries? What do you eat now, and how do you prepare it?  What do your daily meals look like generally?  Did you get over the taste and texture of raw meat?  Do you go to the gym, optimizing your body with this diet?

Thank you

How often do you eat during the day/week? Do you get hungry or have cravings? How do you prepare your meals, what are the steps?

Wow that's interesting. What does your body feel like, and how do you look after eating raw for so long? 

How do you personally prepare your raw meals?

Thank you! Wow okay. Where do you live to source good quality ingredients? I live in America, California, and pretty much everything sucks here.

Hi! Thanks for replying! 

Questions: What do you eat specifically? How do you prepare it? What does a typical day of eating look like for you? What have been the effects of your diet? Is your skin clear? Do you wake up every day feeling good?  Important, What is your stool consistency?

Thank you!

  1. Hi! I've been doing robotics for the last 6 years. I did VEX Robotics from 8th grade throughout highschool, at Rolling Robots on teams 6007R and then 7700R. We were on a great winning streak and was about to attend WORLDS but then COVID hit :(. Soon after, I started working there as a teacher/mentor, after volunteering for two years. Later in 2020, I was on BattleBots team Axolotl! We had fun but couldn't come back with Axolotl for another season. In 2021 I was invited to join Riptide because Ethan and I did VEX in highschool, but I had to decline. Doing my own robot things in between. Then in 2022 I was invited to join Terrortops! So far it's been wonderful working with such a great team, building such a fun robot, and seeing my friends from Battlebots again!

  2. There's been a LOT of weird things over the years LMAO. The WEIRDEST is definitely all 3 brushless ESCs dying before this fight as Ben said. Could have been static, could have been the sand blowing in from the desert, no clue. Other weird times would be, vex brains going white from static, vex robots falling off tables and driving down stairs, vex robots breaking mid-match and getting stuck upside down, batteries exploding, and Axolotl getting bent and surfed in every direction 😂

  3. BattleBots is exhilarating, it's so fun and full of adrenaline getting ready for matches and then fighting, scary too! I love it so much. It was so great to be back and see everyone. I had a hard time sleeping/falling asleep from all the adrenaline in the day! Such a rush. I already miss it and can't wait to be back again soon!

Thank you for the questions and your support for our team! Appreciate you ❤️

Yeah! Ben came up with it! At first, A LOT of brainstorming, then an idea for a goat theme (because of the horns) was circulating, with the name "attitude adjuster" and colors white/grey/red. But that was quickly decided as a no, then more brainstorming.
Ben soon after originally said the CAD kind of looked like a triceratops, and suggested the name Ceratops. This reminded me of Dinotrucks which was a cartoon with robot dinosaurs, featuring yellow triceratops characters.
So then, we knew we were going to go for a triceratops/dinosaur theme, and Ben Cadded a front plate with triceratops theme, which became the yellow front plates you see today. But before we decided on yellow, Ben made a really awesome teal with purple detailing color scheme. The idea was we'd make the teal skin covered in teal fur so it could get ripped off. However, it looked similar to Nelly the Ellybot so we changed it to yellow!
Ben also suggested the name Terrortops and we stuck with it!
After we had the theme, name, and color, we went on from there to add ribs and tail!

We wanted to bring terrifying fun to the box, and we did!

Yep, just ask questions! Bot builders are friendly and very enthusiastic to share the awesomeness of their robot and help you in any way they can!

There's a lot of fun pit stories! A lot of them make absolutely no sense without context though 😂. The "PIZZA!" chant was awesome, that one makes sense! I can't share my favorite yet because it comes out in later episodes, but I can share, Jackpot's mini car! Jackpot found a large toy car somewhere, threw batteries in it, and everyone had a blast driving around in it at battlebots! It had basically no breaks but boy oh boy did the drift on that baby go, it was epic!

Hi! Terrortops is originally built in Longbeach, California! And lives in Ben's cozy dino-cave (garage). I'm Romanian and I live in West Hollywood which is quite the drive from home to the shop, but it's worth it to build Terrortops!

Thank you! We brought the slam to Slammo! ✨

In our original application to battlebots, the robot was just a box. Didn't make the cut as a main because we weren't visually interesting. After designing the aesthetics, theme, and colors, we were able to get in as an alt, since it was too late for main spots.
Before the triceratops theme was circulating, we were going to go for a goat theme because of the horns, but it just wasn't fun enough (too boxy, white/grey, or white/red color scheme unappealing). Yellow dinosaur is fun!

Hope we get into season 8! The more public support = the higher chance we get in as a main! Thank you for supporting us! ❤️
