thanx..

Great an event about 10miles away and i cant go because my grandparent are here :@. Hummmm time to rade the hotel that is about 1mile away :P That hotel is next to a lovely petrol station btw

This had better not be ruined by idiots like it was the last time. Im sure it was their fault that the turn-up wasnt high enough for the event to go ahead.

Christopher,
Maybe you would wish to enlighten us as to who these idiots who in your opinion ruined the last event actually are.
Im sure we would all like to know.

Done Dusted.

You dont Expect a Uni Student to be up at 9:29am do you during Easter Holidays? Silly man.

Mr Stu

Theres ALOT of robots on that list. This is going to be good :)

There are a few names on the list I dont know, but who is Mini Hurts? Sounds interesting (Axe maybe).

Stu, It could also be confusing having 2 robots named Slasher, but I dont see anything in the rules that say you cant :).

Thats Johns dodgey Robot List he supplys me then. Thanks Mark.

Mr Stu

:)

sounds like it will be a good one for feathers!

yeah my dog is hungry !!! :)

you wait till I got a weapon

Mini hurtz i believe is a FW THZ built by Tony (Froggy/PLF). Also Bigger Brother is coming. Might have Alpha running for weekeend.

Whos Flame Bot? Sounds like a vapour.

There were a couple of unfamiliar applications.

If they do turn up, then lets welcome them to the community.

LOL - not only is there one Scorpion Evil to contend with, according to that list it has a probably more Evil twin by the same name. Not sure about Batter Bot ..... probably a Freudian slip by our friend Mr Stu :)

Tony has a new robot every time I see him :) but sounds like an Axe v Axe fight coming on to me.

Hope you get Alpha running, been a while since we met in the arena. Also G3FP is down so I guess that means thats back up and running again.

should have alpha there, Little spinner fighting? Its funny to watch you bounce off the Hardox :lame:

Doubt G3 will be running, as the arena floor has been to bad for it to run on most of this year, thats why it hasnt been out.

No Little spinner is still sitting on the bench, waiting for it to be put back together, keeps getting too much damage hitting Hardox robots :)

Weve been having the same trouble with litter flipper getting stuck and wasting flips trying to get free.

well , been sick this weekend , so couldn´t get Hades up for the job I wanted , but still should do just fine .... cu all this weekend , till saturday !

ps ;pete , got some special belgium cigars for you , just wait ...

just to let everone know that wheely big cheese, edge hog, and the feathers cannot make it to this event. I am very sorry to have to back out, and appologise in advance for the stick Jonnos mum will get about wbc not being there (i do here the audience ask, sorry Ang)

on a better note though, the time off gives us a chance to make some big changes......

see you all soon.

Please stay on, Im begging you, please stay on.

(Im talking about the event staying on, not being cancelled at the last minute).

Chris, stop worrying! See you there.

Thats easier said than done though. Im naturally that kind of person.

But it seems unlikely that it will be cancelled this time.

Good event. Turbulence did crap but things can (will) get better.

Well done to the winners.

Great weekend, well organised and lots of fun.

Congratulations to the winners. We seemed to have had some problems with one thing and another on the robot this event. The worst of the problems seems to be the ram seizing shut in the final melee, hopefully we can fix this if not well just have to try and replace it. We did learn more about setting up the robot than we knew before we turned up and yet another crowds lasting memory of Weird Alice will be us leaving the arena like an escaping convict, over the wall.

Thanks to all and see you at RIAT

I dont think Turbulence did that bad in the fight I saw it in...it was still alive at the end which is kinda a good thing.

That fight being the melee against Beast, Dantomkia, Hades, Iron Awe, Knightmare, Pressure and TAN, BTW.
