mike you can only score your top 8 so if you fight every fight and say get 1 point in each out of say 17 fights you only score 8 not 17 like it says at the top of this thred top 8 scores count .......
i think thats how it will work anyway ... well thats my grab on it :P:)..... pete
Mike i think that the points will be taken from the best 8 results of the year. So if Puck did do what you said it would have only 8 points. Well thats what I gathered from Jonnos origional post anyway. I might be corrected.
Id rather fight Puck than the Tupperware Tomahawk any day!!! :uhoh:
:):proud:
Ahh, that makes more sense Pete, its still lost its event status though.
Tupperware Tomahawk Craig!!! Thats fighting talk!
how do mean its lost its event status mike?
What are the implications of this for feathers|?
Simple, it is not an event in its own right it is a feature of all the (RR) events for the year. On the plus side it might encourage roboteers to attend more events.
With a £2000 prize fund. And with no-one putting in a bid to do a uk champs at all Jonno was good enough to use the league.....which he was going to do anyway... and try and do a uk champs from it. A good idea i thought cos its better than nothing at all mike :)
£2000 prize fund should encourage most people to attend - so many bots would could come 2nd place - only 1 bot who i can c rly winning it
I like the concept of a longer championship and the idea to count only a limited number of results is a good one.
However attending a minimum of 4 qualifying rounds (to make 8 fights) + the final would be a big push for us and I would imagine quite a number of other teams.
If we were to attempt 5 championship rounds it would certainly leave little or no time to support other event organisers and this is my main issue with this format.
As a technicality:
If you do compete in 8 qualifying fights as suggested you are still at a slight disadvantage because you have to include you worst results, as someone who has fought more can discard those (that are potentially against the better robots).
