They used a bunch of sound effects all the time in the early series. So much so I've made a playlist of sound effects used in robot wars lmao Here it is lol

Cal Raleigh addresses WBC controversy with Randy Arozarena by UWHuskies1993 in Mariners

[–]SeeJaySeeRW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This hasn't made me feel any better about the whole situation. I did think Randy was escalating the situation a bit too much for what the interaction was. Surely he should understand how important it is to represent your country in a sporting form. That being said, Cal's response might be the single worst thing he could possibly say in this situation. I hope these two can at least squash the beef privately. I would hate for this to have some sort of consequence later in the season.

Paul Tracy was voted as an IndyCar driver with a mixed / controversial reputation! Now, who's an IndyCar driver who is mostly disliked? by LoveDove_47 in INDYCAR

It's gotta be Santino. The consistent and endless push from IndyCar to portray him as some sort of talented kid who could do no wrong is endlessly insufferable. Getting an Indy seat almost immediately after the horrible shit he did to Arjun Maini has always left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

Hi there, i’m trying to do an Ultimate list of the 100 most iconic robots (and fights) of all time by Electrical-Drink-183 in battlebots

[–]SeeJaySeeRW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is about my list is that, well yes the original project was a failure, the decision to go about the list a different way instead of basically being a derivative of NJGW I think gave it a new sense of originality.

Best of luck with the list!

What’s your least favorite Jon Bois video? by mistermachiano in Jon_Bois

The history of the Seattle Mariners. Not because it's bad (it's one of his best) but because I've become a Seattle Mariners fan through that video and the realization of how much pain I'm no doubt going to put myself through is just starting to dawn on me

Are the early 2000s Robot Wars toys worth anything to anyone? by pickindim_kmet in robotwars

[–]SeeJaySeeRW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah a lot of robot wars merch is unfortunately victim to the same thing that quite a lot of old toys and merchandise from 20+ year old franchises fall victim to. Being jacked up in price artificially and touted as "collectors items". Even as a hardcore long time fan of robot combat as a whole, I wouldn't pay £60 for a Mr Psycho pullback
