Trivia
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 was also 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. The third Blades of Fury is currently in signup stages and is running under standard DSL rules.

Badnik also runs the BattleBots Wiki which is continuously growing. He is also the main driver on Team Ignition, a real-life robotics team, and is currently hosting a vaporbot tournament on the Drowning City boards.
