The last time the draw was called it was 4th of April. You've got about a month to wait.
Still, a list of competitors this week would be nice.

Bitza Mk2 got a ranking! Well chuffed.
We will be performing the draw live on facebook this year!
Will keep you posted as to when but we will be posting each round as they are drawn and online. Make sure you leave your comments and let us know who you think will reach the knock out stages!
I have already begun praying before bed in the hope that it will help in the luck of my draw and I will be taking up chanting in public places later today.
*NOT A SPINNER NOT A SPINNER NOT A SPINNER NOT A SPINNER NOT A SPINNER*
:uhoh:
Why not? Spinners are fun.
Oh boy. This could be fun.
Seriously though, looking forward to it!
There are a few unrecognised names in the comp this time, like 'Conker'. Anyone want to own up to that one?
hi james, Galactus is not listed. Any problem?
Hi Guilherme
Ive PM'ed you.
So come on then guys, who are Beauty 2 and Tiny Toon having join them for their annual fight,any suggestions? :rofl: :rofl:
Now ive seen I'm with LS4, I really do need to get my rebuild done ;)
I think 4 4 Toon lol
Im not aware of what many of these robots are like. If your entered could you please post a little bit about your machine so everyone knows what the competition is like. Thank you very much. I shall start -
Captain Scarlett - 4 wd drive ram bot with independent motors, speed controllers and batteries making it very difficult to immobilise... hence the name :)
The draw will be done via our facebook page, posted as they come out, from 12 pm midday on Saturday :) Make sure you are there!
ReAvenger - 4wd 12v drill motors on 18v, can either be heavily armoured (or so I hope) invertable box or 4wd Vertical crusher
Murphy's law
4wd lifter driven by 4 GR01 motors running at 19.2v. the lifter is electric and the whole robot isn't very good :lol:
Satanix:
2 wheel drive invertable rambot powered by 2 x Speed 900 motors at 18.5v and armoured in 4-17mm steel! Current Mad Metal Machines featherweight champion.
Bruiser 1 - reasonably heavy armed rambot, invertable, with a 4mm steel wedge 4 wheel drive.
Bruiser 2 - designed to be interchangeable, but only one weapon will be finished before the event, a verticle bar spinner, 4 wheel drive, quiet fast. But plans may easily change, at the moment it's probably going to weigh 15kgs+ lots of holes needed!
Dizzy Tilly = 2wd pusher 3mm hardox shell with a scoop
Our 3 entries;
Inertia XL- Vertical Spinner- Hardox Armour- Upgrades for 2012 include new batteries and a faster disc (5000rpm up from 3000).
Lambda Delta- Being designed, named and driven by Kat- invertible Vertical bar spinner with a 2.5kg blade
Aftershock- Driven by Mark this year going back to the orginal version.
Which mark?
My mate from uni- he's coming the the AWS to get some practice :)
