so its thor, toxic2, ia6 on saterday
and toxic2, ia6 sunday
is that correct ?
guessing Thor is there both days, and its just swanny who can't get Saturday :? Might have to move somebody into your team.
Think Thor is there both days, but Jason needs to confirm. DTK and Disturbed there on Sunday. (may need to find some batteries for one of them though, A123's not turned up yet, looks like I'll be building some nicad packs tomorrow :angry: )Quote:

so its 3 of us on saterday and maybe dtk and disturbed on sun if batteries turn up,
it will be erm very challenging , and ive the team bud to do aswell :proud:
i see a coup coming!
No, DTK and disturbed WILL be there sunday. Got some nicads which i can put together as 24v, just need to do a few adjustments an they will fit in disturbed, both on same batteries so i can chop and change if necessary, so both will be running (even if i have to go in the arena and push one of them). Both run off the same packs anyways, so they can both run now just one battery pack short. DTK already has her new paint job for this event, so no going back on that now. She's looking all red and shiny :rofl:Quote:

PS: Anyone who has a spare electronize switch could you bring it along please.
Thor will be there for both days....Terry is acting capt for saturday...We also have Chuck feather which might be able to compete....Dont worry Terry we will do just fine with 4 robots on the saturday...5 if chuck can compete. No worries.
I've been to the doctors and I wont be able to attend, sadly I'm still contagious and looks like I'm starting to get ill again, so if someone were to come get scrap dog I might make them ill and I dont think I could let that happen
I'm sorry I'm out of this one
ok no problem, the more fights we can get the better.Quote:

Team Saint
Fantastic Saturday show, congratz to Terry for an astonishing win in the final Melee for the Mighty Reds, now 2nd place, with Tilly All-Stars in 1st, and Team Barbie and Saints & Sinners joint 3rd. Looking forward to tomorrow!
Great show, back again tomorrow.
Highlight for us was Photon going OOTA for the first time, see the video here

Had a fantastic time, fights were awesome, and doing Disturbed's flipper was great too! Nice win from Team Barbie, taking the title from the Tilly All-Stars. Still, a little confused at why Might Reds came 4th, but had more points than Sants & Sinners? Can someone fill me in please?
Congratulations go out to team barbie
Well deserved win hard faught fights with
no cheating
Enjoy your year as team champions
Ans we'll take the title back next year..
Good luck for the future
THE TILLY ALL STARS
THE TRUE PEOPLES CHAMPIONS..
No way! Mighty Reds year next year! We may not be going far, but we have the potential to win, we just break the rules once too often. Mighty Reds FTW 2012!

btw, sorry for pitting you john (terror turtle), i just couldnt resist :lol:
Just a quick post tonight to say a massive thanks to Mike, Ann and Alan and all connected with Robots Live for putting on another great weekend for all of us. We do appreciate the effort and cost to all EO's who give us somewhere to go and play.
Hope to see you at EXPO next month :D

Peoples Champions 2010 and 2011
Another great set of shows.
Many thanks to Mike, Ann and Alan and all who worked so hard to put the show on.
I was surprised to see that both of my Robots seemed to survive the tempest just about. the scariest was when Thor
turned a simple game of hockey into the third world war :mrgreen:
We found if we stay under the Mighty Thor he can't hit us :mrgreen:
The most satisfying was to stay the distance with Iron Awe 5 and Maelstrom,
we should have got some points for that miracle :uhoh: :uhoh:
All in all a great fun weekend
Saints and Sinners are on the way up :lol: :lol:
thanks RL for a great weekend, was good to see everyone making the effort with the teams. Loved Clives pink hair!
we really had fun with K9's first outing was great with the daleks,looking forward to bringing him out again next time with his new upgrades.
Thanks to Robots Live for a fun weekend!
Well done to team Barbie for winning the competition it was another close one!
Really enjoyed the games this time- Pinball with Maelstrom was especially fun as was the Driver Swap!
Hope we get to do it again next year!

The Tilly Allstars- 2010 champions
A public apology to all that took part at Kidderminster......As captain of The Mighty Reds its always been my attitude to be the bad team at this event. I personally didnt care for winning as i focused more on disruption and breaking rules....I believe if you didnt have a bad team that at these events it would be very boring not only for me personally but for the crowd too. Some of our team felt we could have won the event if i took it more seriously but all along on the sunday i stressed to the team its all about finishing with minus points rather than plus points. Anyway a side effect i didnt realise from this is that from my selfishness i was actually ruining it for other teams that took this event seriously. For that i am sorry, but i am sure you can accept that my personality dictates who i am.
As there is far more people that take this event seriously rather than have fun i therfore resign as captain of the Mighty Reds and wont attend this type of event anymore. I will always maintain events like these are more about having fun and maintaining that community spirit rather than getting far too serious to the point of feeling uncomfortable.
A very well done to Team Barbie for winning.
Well done jonno for winning the Teambud Trophy
Well done Terry your getting better all the time.
If we had, we would have ended up with 85 points. Not a critisism, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I agree that the rule breaking made for a much more entertaining show!Quote:

hopefully anyone else involved will be able to accept it and we can all move on for the sport. As I wasnt personally involved it maybe easier to say. but lets keep smiling and spread the love :rofl:
What a great weekend. A massive well done to all of the drivers in Team Barbie,with a special mention to Sean Bell in only his 2nd event with Fortis,absolutely superb in the pinball.Congratulations must also go out to the other 3 teams for making it such a fun 2 days, with the Tilly All Stars making it more than interesting right up to the final Melee.Well done to Captain Jack for winnning the Team Bud.
Vey impressed with Ray's dalek and Ady's K9.
A brilliant social on saturday night with Stellios Thomas and the crew from Easy Jet.
Looking forward to defending our title next year :proud: :proud:
A survey conducted after the final show also confirmed that Team Barbie also retained tha Peoples Champions title as well so the perfect weekend. :proud: :proud:
And Swanny you know what I think, don't stop enjoying it mate,its why we do it.

had to be done sorry!
Thanks to robots live for organising another great event, but I must apologise to everyone for my involvement with the arming up of my robot and spoiling the outcome, it was done with no bad intentions as we thought it would give the audience a great show but didn't think about any other teams that wanted to win. I feel very ashamed and hope we haven't ruined it for the future.
Congratulations to team barbie on your win aswell.
It was me terry not you mate....Please dont feel ashamed. I was captain it was my responsibilty. It is my selfish attitude that just wanted to have fun. Teambud are thinking about giving the robot scene a rest for a while....we both came away from robots live enjoying the event itself but with a feeling that people just rather us not be there. Perhaps we upset too many people too often. Or perhaps our personalities just dont fit in anymore. We will never change....more so me....so maybee the best thing to do is leave you to it. I really dont know why i am posting on here anyway as 90% of roboteers dont read it.
Would be a shame for you to leave us all, at the end of the day, it's all about having fun, that's why 99% of us took it up in the first place
Hi Shane and Jason
Was I at a different show? :shock:
I had a great time, Lots of interesting fight formats, enjoyed the fight with Thor always do :uhoh:
I expect my robots to get damaged after all it is robot WARS! Cherub bust a weld and some bits got bent inside.
If some were annoyed then I'm sure they have chilled now.
Its team Bud, Saint and Batter almost all the rest are flipping flippers :proud:
See you at the next show that's an order :uhoh: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Oi Swanny shut up you tart.Just be yourself, and get your new pile of crap built and along to Maidstone.Who else installs as much fun and mischief as Team Bud. :wink:
hey has anybody found a red and black extension lead with hills writen on it, if so its mine :uhoh:
Team Batter had a fantastic event, thanks to Alan and all your crew they worked very hard.
Craig you're right flippers everywhere
I also agree with Clive: Swanny get this machine built & show us just what it can do - it's different
Team Bud cannot leave, you've given me more inspiration to make Scorpion even stronger and the only way I can test it is by fighting Thor with a very large nutter firing its axe :D :D
Anyway the audience apparently loved The Mighty Reds and the way they cheated, and I'm quite sure if Terry hadn't cheated in the speedway he would have easily beated Beast as Toxic is looking very good at the moment
