40-time HQ winner. Enjoys some robots, some wrestling, some racing, and piecing together weird intercontinental itineraries to humor himself. He/him/not "Bill".

Screenshot of the top of the New on Nebula email that hit my inbox, with Scav as the featured series (rightfully, it’s fun).
Chart explaining the math. The probabilities of each multiplier for non-jackpot prizes works out to 3.0149. Given the stated odds of winning each prize and the expected multiplier, the expected value of non-jackpot prizes is $1.13. The jackpot, which is not subject to a multiplier, has odds of 1 in 290472336. $1.125 billion times 1/290472336 is $3.87, bringing the expected value to $5.00.
Me, wearing a comically large tan sun hat about twice as big in diameter as my head. In the background is the main square of Charleville-Mézières, France, but that's beside the point--this happened to be the best photo of my hat on my head.

Picture of the three 2025 SCRAP tournament trophies, each a 3D printed structure with three rotating planetary gears sitting on a base made of a crown gear. Hanging off the right is a plaque with the SCRAP logo with the title. At left is the finalist trophy, the middle is the champion's trophy, and at right is the Volunteer of the Year trophy with the recipient's name redacted.
My hand holding a small ruler laser cut out of wood. Because I learned how to operate a laser cutter at the library today.
Lyrics from Canadian band Sum 41’s song “I Can’t Wait”: I just hate / all the time with you that now seems wasted I will break / All that matters, ‘cause you make me sick One thing I know is that I’ll be alright / I know that everything will be just fine.
A picture of downtown Kokomo, Indiana near the courthouse which has “JUSTICE TO ALL” chiseled on the side. There’s a white panel van in front.
My opponent's weapon disc after the same fight from the previous post. One hit on my wedge made it shatter. Reportedly, the glue used to assemble it made the polycarbonate brittle.
My 2020 robot, The Pun-Slinger V: Dum Spiro Spero, on display on a hotel room floor. It uses a white Sam's Club cutting board as the front wedge. A bit of plaid duct tape is visible on the sides, and a blue wheel peeks out from the corner. The robot name and a crudely-drawn depiction of the South Carolina state flag are on the top of the wedge in sharpie.
A sparse warehouse with several teams all spread out about eight feet from each other, with a pipe and black drape stand blocking out space. Everyone is wearing masks.
A new, flattened U-Haul moving box propped up against other U-Haul moving boxes.
Another shill post by u/matrixcr786 reading "Add a sunset Blade helicopter trip to your itinerary. You’ll get mind-blowing skyline shots, then still have time to hit a fancy dinner."
A meme of NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt beside his race car, pointing off-camera with a smile. Top: "Super Bowl?" Bottom: "Son, that just means it's 1 week to Daytona."
Screenshot of a Reddit notification where u/Classic_Spring2425 replied "A short Blade helicopter ride around Manhattan at night can totally level up a romantic weekend. It’s quick but memorable, especially if you’re celebrating something special."
Wide shot of a robotics workshop in a modest state of organization.
An iPhone Lock Screen where the wallpaper is a small white stuffed goat wearing a red cape on a grassy field with trees in the background. Or as the goats say, a heck of a breakfast buffet.
A picture of two competition robots with elevator lifts loaded with game pieces on a field. The one on the right is badly tilted by its goal looking like it will tip over (it did), while the other is upright and ready to score.
The old "Mox Seizes The Superstation" announcement from AEW, but it's Rukus' name and head.
Interior shot of the fighting robot made out of cardboard. The motor that drives the active flipper is held in place with gaffer tape. The blue flipper plate is lifted, with "AVOID THE RUSH HATE CLEMSON EARLY" scrawled on with a marker.
Scene from the end of a robot fight out on a concrete patio on a sunny day. There is a large crowd around the arena, and one robot (my opponent) is on its side about to lose by knockout.
A meme based on the "Mox Seizes the SuperStation" promotional graphic. Renee Paquette's head replaces Jon Moxley's, while the message has been altered to "Renee Seizes The Bluesky"
