As I see youre now doing the ants Chris (Cummins), Ill just say that AR2 and ADB are on the list to come but we wont be able to make it... :sad:
Also, PLF (feather) will not be able to make it as well.
Yes thank god i aint wearing a skirt!
Thank god i dont even have to speak to you horrible lot after we have to drag your bots out of the arena in peaces :)
Mr Stu
Hi Stu,
Remenber, if you need any bots taken to pieces in the arena...Just point them out to John...Know what I mean!! :)
See ya Saturday,
Geoff.
Ill pass that note on to others Geoff :proud:
And provide you with the bag to clean up your own mess :)
MR Stu
PS - Email going out to all roboteers tonight sometime.
What, you mean the bag for the mess we leave behind or the mess that our own machine will probaly be in come the end of the weekend!!?? :)
I can finally say we cannot make it :sad:
Wow
Just read the instructions that trophy is certainly the biggest one thats ever going to be presented.
The top prize trophy is a 170m diameter €˜Giant Nut€™ made out of Stainless Steel
I dont know about having a strong shelf whoever wins will need a large garden.
Ian
My lord! The scrap value alone of that trophy would pay for a new robot!
We aim to please :)

Could be machined into one hell of a spining disc...
Mmmmm! Interesting thought! :)
nice event all
and some good fights
lots of very close ones and nice to see ed fight some other discs :D
Best Featherweight event so far. Good turn out by the roboteers and the public. Lo9ts of different robots, Weldone to RIP for coming first, 2nd Rampage 2 and 3rd Cutlet 540. The DVD is going to be great.
InXistence got going in the end and is still running :) Finishing off InX 2 now over x-mas.
Jas
Great event. Thanks to all the organisers.

triggy
hi, Id just like to say that was a great event and great fun. I also have a big thanks to all the people who helped us get Thuggernought back running especialy the scorpion team. Without all the loaned tools and generous supplys of cable ties it would never have been running at the end of the event.
Sam
I should point out that the video on my site is only in pretty low resolution. If you want to see it in professional quality from loads of camera angles...Then buy the DVD when it comes out!!!
Thanks for all the great feedback. It wasnt just Ed that organised it though....
The featherweights.org crew need a big thankyou
Mr Stu...Jase and Ed M for keeping the event running on the day, and sorting out the website etc
Tim and Meral - the better half of Team Storm for their help and moral support
*deep breath*
Andy M, Dave G, Sarah and Sian for all their help with the PA and the lighting on the day, Andy for always being in the right place at the right time and Sian for keeping a smile on Daves face for the weekend and Sarah for excessive hammerdamage accompanied by manic laughter.
...hmm, who else, Andy Kane for judging, James at Inspire for letting us take over their building, Bob and co for the filming, the lovely Charlotte for being our presenter, Viking Lighting for the rig.....
.... and the roboteers without whom the event wouldnt have been much - an empty arena isnt much fun !
Im glad everyone had a great time, Im told the footage from Botcam and the other cameras is great and hopefully well have a teaser/trailer of some of the highlights out soon. Watch this space to order a DVD too !
Take care all - and have a good xmas !

Everybody at Phantom Films - Bob, Rick, Anne, Scott, Robin, James, Garfy and Charlotte would like to thank everybody at this years Inspire for being so welcoming and friendly. Special thanks to Ed at Team Storm and the featherweights.org team for putting on an excellent event and enabling us to capture probably the best action footage ever
seen of featherweight robots in action. We couldnt have got this done so quickly without the co-operation of all concerned, especially the
roboteers, so a big thanks and hopefully this is the start of many filmed events to come which can only increase the popularity of the fighting robots scene.
We are planning to relase a short promo clip of the footage very soon, and will let you know when and where it will be available to view.
All the best,
from the
Phantom Films Crew
hi
just wanted to say thanks to ed, and stu n co, for a great weekend.
Oh and what superb polycarb, tables and gas filing service ;)
seriously loved the hammer, and the filming was great, charlotte did a brilliant job.
Rip was on form all weekend, some great fights with cutlet. Lots more to come in 2004 im sure.
First outing for Strip, proved the concept, need to rebuild with some proper wheels now.
Look forward to winning again next year :)
JOnno
