No offence taken Tony, I know such a proposal would affect your robots based on their current state, and would have been problematic had it been implemented prior to this year's UK champs. You make a good point about it being rather quite limiting to people who are only able to attend one or two events a year, and I know no-one would ever want to prevent people from enjoying the social side of events either. Nice to have a bit of interesting debate on the issue though

I think Andy has raised a valid point too and that is regarding information available with regards to making/implementing a weapon system. I keep wanting to try and write some guides and what-not but admittedly I'm guilty of not being motivated enough. There is some form of Wiki in the works which I believe Kane is working hard on, but at the same time we can't expect him to do everything with respect to guides, how-to's, resources etc. A lot of good information is out there too, it's just lost among endless threads and posts.
