Actually, its only some of the pneumatic boys who seem to be making it so vocal...

My personal view is if other consumables are already included in the weight, why not gas?

Its never really made sense to me why it should be one weight for some and more for others. And then there is the 2% (2Kgs) that everyone abuses which is only there to give ley-way on the scales.

If people want to play robots, then it is down to the event organiser as to what is acceptable or not. But in a fair competition, rules are neccessary to ensure a fair fight.

Robot building is all about compromise to build the ultimate design...
