This quote confounds me:
Quote:
Earlier this year during PAX East, another gaming convention, controller cards were given out that lead to a viral website. And apparently these new trading cards for the robot boxing movie also link to a new viral site located at WRB.com/workshop called Design For Chaos

erm... I was there. What cards led to wrb.com/workshop?? we had the flyers with the codes, but no cards leading anywhere. This E3 update was the first I (we?) heard of the /workshop site... did we miss something? Or is a typo on firstshowing's part? =P

 		Does the number after our robots names correspond to how many were created before mine? e.g. mine is 158th

No, we didn't miss anything. I think it is just a poorly written explanation...they're trying to say that;
At PAX East they gave out postcards shaped like the controller that sent you to the WRB. Now at E3, there are 'trading' cards that send to you to the WRB/WorkShop.

BTW, I can edit, save and earn the achievement, but I cannot edit my robot's name/logo. I've tried on FF and IE. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Oh I see the problem... the text of the article is technically fine, but the link for the PAX handouts goes to /workshop instead of the main page. That caused my confusion. Razz

Did you try this

When you login click on your name to view your profile and achievements. There are two boxes in the right hand corner, one reads "Click to edit your profile" and the other reads "Edit name and icon".

You can change your robot name and icon as much as you like. It saves it whenever you log in

Yeah, found that. The issue is not knowing where to edit, just that I can't. I click, and am presented with the 2 columns of words and check boxes. Click on the boxes nothing happens. Can't go to the next page for the logo unless you check 2 boxes, right? But I can access the WorkShop and create a robot boxer, login, then save, earn achievement then nothing. I go into my account to edit robot name/logo, no go. I've tried on 2 different computers at 2 locations both using IE and FF("No script" disabled) with 2 different accounts. I am at a loss...

EDIT: Sigh...works in Chrome. I smell a conspiracy...

I think the number changes depending on saved changes you've made to your bot. The number fluctuates so I don't think there is too much importance on it. I could be wrong however.
