First I want to thank to Mikey G for the first contest. If you find this thread geeky beyond belief, its because I stand on the shoulders of giants.

In light of today's exciting announcement that Mars was once slightly less hostile to life than it is now, I thought it would be fun to take one o' them multi-million dollar Mars rovers and throw it into the battlebot arena with the robotic "Rover" known as Aibo. Rules are the same as before... give me the best reason for your choice of winner, or be the first up against the wall when our robotic overlords take over the planet.

Since (for reasons I cannot fathom) neither robot is bristling with weaponry, you are free to suggest any modifications necessary for your favored contestant to achieve victory. Yep. Cheat all you want to as long as you're funny.

Here are the contestants:

All the way from the red planet comes the Field Geologist of Genocide... the Purveyor of Planetary Pain... "Opportunity"!

And from the Land of the Rising Sun comes the Terrier of Terror... the Lapdog of Laceration... "Aibo model ERS-7"!

Let the carnage commence!

The robotic dog would win, since it takes 30 minutes for commands to reach the Mars Rover. The dog would easily be able to take it out.

I'd think that the Mars Rover would win, because if the robotic dog is anything like my real dog, that thing would be a pushover. My dog sits there and watches as the fat birds come and eat the dog food out of her dish, and then goes to sleep. And if she sneezes, the birds all fly away.

the robotic bugs (which by the way, are programed to fight) are attacking Aido's dog... economically. The dog is over a grand, and the bugs are only 40 bucks. The Aido dog won't be around for long. The Mars Rover will probably outlive the Aido dog before Rover receives its first command.

The Mars rover would win because the robotic dog would be destracted with trying to find the Mars rover's butt to sniff.

The Aibo Dog would win, and here's why:

The Aibo Dog would be modified with the one thing that all dogs have, and the one thing they love to abuse the power of having, and that is a urinary system. The Aibo Dog would simply piss on the Mars Rover until the damn thing shorted out.

The battle was short and brutal. The winner is Graykane, who now bears the responsibility of inciting the next riot. And of coughing up 400 Million for a new rover. I have NASA on the phone right now. Will that be cash or charge?

......... what the FUCK are you talking about?

although i don't think i deserve it, thanks. i'll see what i can come up with.
