Badnik's nickname is based on the group of robot enemies from the original Sonic the Hedgehog games.
Accidentally got banned when 027 LB was banned, luckily, the moderators sorted this out and unbanned Badnik in less than a day. |
Badnik96 is a regular member on the Gametechmods.com Forum.
Hosted the revolutionary Replica Wars series of tournaments, as well as the Tag Team Tornado after FOTEPX backed out. He also completed the first edition of the RA2 Hall of Fame, which was eventually re-done by Urjak. He is a good builder in DSL, and is decent in Stock, having learned all the glitches. He is getting better and better, with five teams in NAR AI. He mostly builds IRL now, and started the Live Designs AI pack, the first one for IRL robots.
Badnik also hosted the three Replica Wars tournaments, both achieving much success, and was running a DSL IRL-Style tournament called Blades of Fury, but it was cancelled due to computer troubles. It returned under a simpler structure and SKBT claimed victory with SkidMark.
Badnik regularly competes in the CFL tournaments on the neighboring Drowning City forums. His best accomplishment there is a semi-finals place in FRR Dead Zone, with superheavyweight Phantasmic Slammer. Badnik also runs the BattleBots Wiki which is continuously growing.
