NFX

NFX is a relative newcomer to the Gametechmods community, having first downloaded Robot Arena 2 in August 2009, and joinging the GTM Forums just two days after. Following a brief departure from the forums for unknown reasons, he returned in April 2010, and started to become one of the forum regulars.

He has a stock showcase here and a DSL showcase here.

He has come under some criticism for creating the 1000 Pages Thread, sometimes shortenened to 1KP, which he claimed was a place where members could spam freely, and not clutter up the other topics. Currently it has reached around 60 Pages, and is also one of only two topics where Scourge of teh Galaxy posts regularly, the other being her own house thread.

Recently, he also got involved in the Pikachu Avatar Takeover just before people started losing interest, having given his Pikachu Avatar the face of a Mudkip, combined with the Personal Text '"So...I heard u liek Pikachus..."

Skill

Stock Knows quite a lot of the glitches, and can build some fairly competitive bots.

DSL Still learning, but doesn't fully understand the Realistic Rule. Likes to experiment, but tends to make bots more for looks rather than combat efficiency.

Modding Once tried to reskin a few Stock Components, but instead managed to crash his game.

Notable Robots

Altitude - A flipper with an unconventional razor-tipped servo arm which could be lifted over the top of the bot. Recently rebuilt by Sage for Back To The Beginnings.

Snap!Happy - A two-snapper HS with a smiley face on the front. Currently competing in Wild Robots Live 2.

HaleStorm - A series of popup wedges with improving results each time. He attempted to give HaleStorm 3 an AI in the BBEANS Stock Mod, but this crashed the game. A MW version, Blizzard, was also built.

Tribute To Tribute To Mayhem - A rebuild of Naryar's first showcased bot, a VS/Flipper Hybrid, for G.K.'s tournament Back To The Beginnings. Was initially criticised for its short wedges, but managed to pick up a victory against a less-than decent HS, before losing to Pwnator in one of the quickest matches in the tournament, and then Sage, with a rebuild of Altitude.

Zombie Pirate Ninja - A DSL Hammerbot which has been entered into BBEANS 6. Regarded by much of the community, including himself, as one of the tournament's SFTWs.
