Madman3
A normie who joined in early 2010. Since then he has improved at DSL and Stock and gets on with most of the members. Considered one of the more reasonable members of the forum, and is occasionally referred to as a "voice of reason" due to his contributive skills and evidence focused points. Strongly liberal and a strong believer in economic equality as the ultimate goal for a nation.

"WORM" |
Tries to argue reasonably and enjoys any good quality argument. Dislikes stereotype, subjectivity and discrimination. Considers constructive criticism the foremost contribution and dislikes flaming. Also well and truly evil (although Naryar would like to say something about that statement...), being quick to point out flaws when they are present; he therefore gets on fairly well with Naryar and Scorpion, the former of which he has "Ham Wars" with, which generally involves a lot of caps and cruelty.
Often attempts to diffuse flame wars or at least inject some level of reason into them. Generally handles these tasks calmly, adopting a Peacekeeper role, but can occasionally be a n00b whacker if he considers it appropriate.
Inventor of the Torque Reaction Full Body Drum, a bot type that has a team dedicated to it in 123STW AI. Had one of the best first tournament runs ever, becoming the runner up of BTTB4 for his first tournament. His success has varied since but he has won the HW Division of RA2 Olympics: London and placed 3rd and 4th on other occasions.
Bot Building
Stock-Decent, can do most glitches but doesn't really build much. Like pop-ups and experiments with pokers occasionally.
DSL-Good. Understands building techniques and attempts new things frequently with successful results popping up from his experiments occasionally.
Notable Bots
Flail Swing- The original and flawed TRFBD. Has been made obselete by newer designs by 123STW and also some of Mad's other bots like Powershifter, which can be found in his showcase.
Shovel Headed Blockbuster - Madman's first bot for a tournament that actually got underway, Shovel Headed Blockbuster was his entry for BTTB4, a HW Popup with 4 BSGs with 16 razors and a heavy plough for amour.. Quickly defeating Martymidget, ty4er and G.K., it then had a heated battle with Sage, in which its wedge AGOD actually gave it the victory as it got under Sage with one wedge and Sage outwedged the other, causing Sage to be trapped in its wedge setup, allowing Shovel Headed Blockbuster to slowly hammer away at the front of Sage's bot, breaking its armour and K.O.-ing it. After being defeated by Powerrave, who's bot had superior wedges, it fought Sage again in the losers bracket, in which some more hectic and close matches ensued, but again Shovel Headed Blockbuster won and advanced to fight Powerrave again in the final, where it lost due to being too easy to flank and being outwedged, landing Madman3 second place.
Future Breed Machine - DSL HW Angled Juggler. Performed well in RIW3, winning its opening set without conceeding a loss against MikeNCR, Hercules and Plazmic inferno, before defeating Thyrus and ty4er. Its run ended up being stopped by Squirrel_Monkey's Aeon, and was then subsequently beaten by NFX's Hairline Fracture, achieving 4th overall.
New Machine Of Liechtenstein - HW IRL VS entered into RA2 Olympics: London. Defeating MikeNCR in the first round, it then narrowly won against Mr. AwesumSauce's bot Chocolate, progressing to fight NFX in the final, where it won 3 times against NFX's drum, The Highlander II, by gutripping it and by hitting the sections of exposed chassis either side of the drum, giving Madman3 his first 1st Place finish.
Road To Ruin - MW SnSnS entered into Two To Tango with Urjak as a teammate. Provided probably the most hilarious matches in the tournament, but was successful throughout, eliminating Squirrel_Monkey's Team West before losing to SKBT and NFX. It then defeated Team Rocket (COOLRUNNER87 and Mr. AwesumSauce), Team None So Vile (Madman's other team with Enigma), Team Evil Flying Squirrel Monkeys (Naryar and Squirrel_Monkey, and Team Not Recognised By Anyone (The Ounce and MassimoV). They then once again lost to SKBT's solo team, placing 3rd.
Whisper Supermacy - MW SnS entered into Two To Tango with Enigma in Team None So Vile. Defeated Team Girl Squad (LiNcK and R1885) and Team Postal Service (Conraaa and Jack Daniels) before losing to I'm With Who (ty4er and Kurt Wylde). It then defeated Team Girl Squad again before being defeated by Team Moral Ambiguity, Madman's other team with Urjak. Madman considers it a more damaging but more fragile bot than Road To Ruin, and it could have done better had he not defeated it himself.
