The Deffending Champions Are Ready Too Deffend The Title ...........
news of the o2 event seems to be spreading quite quickly
Unfortunatley Team Saints and sinners won't be able to do team events, not with me anyway, since Cabarakan III won't be combat ready untill late 2011/early 2012
Dont worry dave, the MIGHTY REDS will take the title that was rightfully ours anyway !
hi Guys,
Been a bit quiet of late, thought I'd check in and give you an update.
Just going through the RED tape at the O2.... The Event layout plans are being submitted tomorrow which is whats needed before the contracts are finalised, so things moving nicely towards the launch.
Arena is under way for the face lift at Barnsley, however just a smidgin of whats to come at the O2 at the launch and events in the future.
Everything else is coming together. Exciting times.

TEAM SAINTS AND SINNERS - REMEMBER DAVID AND GOLIATH!
WERE LOOKING FOR A FEW NEW ROBOTS :uhoh: :uhoh:
Dear Mr Craig.......I gather from the above post you are trying to get a new team to challenge the Mighty Reds...Tilly Allstars and the bunch of pink Puffs who mince.....well can i just suggest you change the RED colours in your text as there is already a team in red. You just cant come on here and copy such greatness you must find your own colour to run your team on.....Go-on son hop-it!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Shane for your polite rebuke Not wishing to contravene copyright laws :uhoh: :uhoh: :uhoh: here is the revised version hope it is ok :mrgreen:

sorry ! :lol:
ANYWAY ..........
Roaming Robots @ the O2 is now CONFIRMED !!
April 23rd - 24th 2011 - FRA UK Heavyweight Championships.
We will be officially launching it very soon on the website etc after Barnsley... but for now I thought you'd like to know the good news. Today we had the meeting we have been waiting for to tie up more red tape... and.... Yes its all systems go !
Launched as an initial 2 day event, with the option to expand to further days if required. This years UK championships will hopefully be the championships to set a new level.
We have now hit the go button.
Next weekend Major damage will take centre stage at the O2 fitted into a 4m x 4m polycarb box !! Sure to create a stir over half term and the weeks up to the event. Tickets for the event to go on sale in the next 10 days or so.
Shows times each day will be 12pm, 3pm, and 6pm.
The championship will be open to 32 heavy weights and a first come first served basis, with the exception of the seeds who have reserved places. Feather weights and extra heavies are welcome, but not for the champs if we are full.
Each heavy weight team taking part will be asked to pay a £60 entry fee. This then secures your place at the event.
However... the entry fee is purely a deposit, and when you arrive at the O2 with a working robot you WILL GET IT BACK.
We will be providing the following€¦.
1 Hotel room which covers Friday AND Saturday per team.
A Meal voucher which will give you a Sandwich, Crisps, Chocolate, and a Drink at lunch time on show days.
While this event will be the Heavy Weight Champs, we will still however want the feather weights along and be running a smaller competition with them, however we can€™t provide your accommodation for this event. We will however be able to pass on any hotel discounts we get to you if you book for the Saturday night etc in the same hotel, plus we will still have the meal vouchers available for you. We simply cant pay for everyone, and you do get your own champs at RoboChallenge.
Please don€™t automatically think I€™ve done a multimillion pound deal with this€¦ this is crunch time, do or die€¦..
There's a SERIOUS amount of money being gambled on this event, if people can share rooms etc to save costs, it would be appreciated. You dont want to know the budget for this event !!
Spread the word, and get those robots ready !!! I will post here and email everyone when sign up goes live !!!

WE ARE READY !!!!!
And WELL DONE BOSS !!!!!!!!

Nice work Jonno, I can't wait.
I have a few small queries though; a) Due to circumstances I can be there for friday or monday to help set up or take down, but not both, which do you need me more for, the putting up or taking down ? And b) Can I bring the antweights ?
Driving into the middle of Lodon, I am not looking forward to that, it was bad enough trying to get to Wimbledon to drop off Marco's charging gear :P
Not a competitor (yet), but I'm definitely going to try and get tickets to see the HW champs, since I've never been to a live event before. Make a good excuse to visit London again.
Dave,
Monday is peobably best as we are having two days to build it and if it's a whopping success we will have a crew party Sunday night... So need more help Monday lol.
Don't worry it's not actually centre of London... It's dead easy to get to !!
This all sounds good news Jonno :)
Reading by what you have posted its £60 a team, does this mean each team member of that team has to pay £60 or is it for the whole team. I'm going definitly and I'm sure my other 2 teammates will be too
Liam......
as i read it it says it in the post by johnno.....
Each heavy weight team taking part will be asked to pay a £60 entry fee.
how many seeded heavys is there, as they are 1st in line ?
Sounds good, pity I'll never be able to make it, even if I had the money. :(
Make sure you get some videos, lads! :)
well done .....should be gooooooooooooood times a rolling :)
10 Seeded from 2010
:proud: :proud: :proud: :proud: :proud: :proud:
As the new owner of gravity 5, ( now named gravity 5.1 like the Dolby).
I am pretty sure i will sign up for this one!
Looking for some action ;)
nice one jonno, about time you have been given the chance to do this!
looks like my dad will lose the £60 as we will turn up to 02 and beast wont work ha
There is also interest from roboteers from Germany to attend.
we might know someone who may build a heavy weight in time for the event, but we will keep you posted
Great, now all we need are some Americans & it'll be the 10th anniversary of Earl's court.Quote:
