Ok ;) we just booked our ferry, this year we are departing from Dunkerque to Dover.
looking at the dates ,, we will still be on holiday when the event finishes:sad:
Der Boyz
Championship sign ups start 7 pm friday.
Best of luck to the first 48 heavies and 24 feathers
So Andy, if im correct only 48 heavies are allowed to join the competition ? ok, we will be online to book asap.. thnx for your input !
how does this effect teams with 2 heavies and 4 feathers for example?
Im assuming one team may enter only 1 heavy and/or 1 feather each? Meaning only 1 heavy in 2 can enter a feather also?
Copy and paste from above
Ed Wallace:
Great news, a bit ahead of schedule probably, but will each team only be allowed to enter one robot in each competition (F/W and H/W). If so we will probably enter Turbulence and Secret Weapon
Jonno:
Answer to your questions guys .
Ed W, Yes it will be one entry per weight class for one team only.
So how do we stand with Merlin and UFO im assuming we can enter both seeing as they have both been seeded?
Also when will the competition rules be released as we cant sign up without knowing wether or not our machines comply?
cheers dave
Well its the FRA rules according to what Ive found sneaking around the unlinked RR web pages Alan, but thats to be expected.
Please could we have the competition rules that I think Alan was refering to like tap-outs, how each fight will run and arena effect uses, and any particular competition rules for feathers and heavies?
Many Thanks
Am I right in thinking the Annihilator, Tag Team and International Challenge will be run for both feathers and heavies?
will we be able to choose wat day we have aour qualifying fights or are they selected for us?
Robots will have to conform to FRA build rules.
Tech checkers I believe will be quite strict.
If you normally get through a RR tech check you should not have any worries.
With John on holiday the competion layout has not been published yet. The sign ups are the next thing to happen.
AJ no, Feathers have their championship and white boards only. John may want to do something else, but time is really tight to get through what is already planned.
Remember that 3 months notice of a competion is longer than we normally have had before, information will come out in dribs and drabs.
Friday nights are information posting time on the forum,but which Friday nights will be a mystery to me as it is to you.
The most critical date is the fourth of August. This is when you find out what day your heat is.
right thas me signed up then:)
Me too :)
Me three :)
Ewan, your only allowed to enter 2 robots :P
Hornet and swarm are signed up. Just have to get them both finished now!
Hope you all nice people :)LOL
lol, you coming along Bex?
LOL do i dare say. Whats going to happen to me if i say yes? :S
Oh I dont know... we cheer with elated joy? :proud:
Youll get the flying saucer treatment there of course :wink:
Ohhh flying saucers i like them... ;)
Hands off, Bex is standing by me at the arena effects desk to keep me company. :) I have an exclusive contract with her, but not as exclusive as someone else :lame:
Sign ups went online at 7pm as promised - and after 2 and a half hours time, we are over 50% full already.
Notice to Teams who have signed up but are not yet members of either or both the FRA and Roaming Robots, you must become members within the next week or two so we can process things and move things on. These are due to Insurance purposes so the sooner we sort out memberships the better we can move on and put more effort into organising the other things.

woooo... Stu... I didnt know you were the possesive type :)
Whos this someone else eh? Oh go on Stu tell tell tell :wink:
Be great to meet you at last Bex :)
Shhhh stu... dont tell :P, i wouldnt get to excited about meeting me... im nothing special
Hang on Ewan, the flying saucers are not yours to bandy about. Bex will have to earn her share. That is unless Stu wants to give her some of his. ;)
hehe, ill see what the corner shop has in store :wink:
I think Stu wants to keep his flying saucers, or any other UFOs for that matter, to himself :rofl:
Or i can just bring my own flying sauces :P dont have to earn them and can have one when i like
flying sauces???
You never fail to amayonnaise me Bex LOL
