Battlebotsboy was a big BattleBots fan: he was the owner of Spinning Mayhem, created multiple battlebots for competition with a 15-18 W/L record and recorded robot competitions in his YouTube channel. In the Cavern, he was an attendee of r'Tayrtahn's Story Night since 2010 and a beloved member of that community. In 2012 and 2014 he hosted a Story Night on Fridays, where he read from the book Myst: The Book of Atrus, reading one chapter per night over 23 weeks. He was also an avatar operator for some of the early episodes of The Lost Art machinima. He died after a long battle with cancer at the age of 28.
