ill be in the newspaper after the event for winning it :P
i think there was an article last yr in a birmingham newspaper about the event
what about all your fans john? wont they be wondering why their favorite machine isnt in the news?????:)
anyway a question about the event, will there be a weigh in session or something?
ye there will be a weigh in
and my fans will see my in the news paper when i win :P
Lichfield Teenager Arrested For Disturbing The Peace Following Robotic Competition Win ?
Nah itll be:
Lichfield Teenager Arrested For Disturbing The Peace Following Robotic Competition Loss :proud:
Yes Alex, the robots are weighed as part of the tech check process. Mines still underweight at the moment thankfully so Ive got room for any additions I may need, but it will be interesting to see the modifications some people have done to bring their machines up to 13.6kg. Destruction levels could be increased at this event :)
Hey guys, looking good for the papers i might add!
Yes weigh ins will happen as part of the tech check and at random intervals through out the event. both finalist will definatly be weighed as well.
no his dads winning it ;)
Sign ups will close at 10 pm on tuesday (tomorrow). The Draw for the championships will be announced on Wednesday evening.
what format is it going to be?
a league like we had b4 3 fights like?
I hope its like that, I liked that format. Meant everyone was pretty much guaranteed at least three fights over the weekend, no matter how rubbish you were :P
Interesting that were getting the draw before we get to the event - will give me a whole two days to plan how to beat my opponents :proud:
ye while your worrying about how to beat them ill be chilling as i already know how to beat everyone - its just doing it lol
We are still looking at different formats. But the possability of having all rounds except the first as one on ones is pretty exciting. never had that before so its looking possitive.... true competition
I prefer one on ones, it means you can focus on an opponent instead of getting the luck of the draw which flipper flips first.
i prefer one on ones but will do anything
but when its a 3 way you always get the best robot out first? so then its not fair imo
Thats why we want this as many one on ones as possible to get the true best. First round will be 3 way melees with 2 large losers melees and then its all one on ones from there. In the quater finals there will be a losers melee for an unlucky good competitors. 6 rounds to get through to become champion!
James, what is the floor of the arena again?
MDF or plywood or something else?
