what you think about these john bob

1.Big Nipper
2.Iron Awe 5 - moved up 1 place from uk champs results due to winning winter tour - could be number one but big nipper is the champ
3.THZ - should be number one as axes rule but big nipper is the best and iron awe doing 2 well
4.Dantomkia
5.Kapow cant really move 4-7 about but beast should be abit higher but kapow flipped us out
6.Beast
7.Turbulence - turb could of been abit higher but change of robot means 2006 dont count :sad:
8.Envy - winning last 2 RR events hes moved up a few - shouldnt really count on normal events but envy can be up a few
9.Tiberious
10.Kanopener - i feel sorry for kan opener being so low but cant see anywhere to put it without making people upset
11.Velocirippa
12.Ripper - after driving down the pit you have been swapped with envy


how many robots taking part?

if theres 24 then i say pod with 4 teams each and

seed 1 goes with seed 12
seed 2 with seed 11
seed 3 with seed 10
seed 4 with seed 9
seed 5 with seed 8
seed 6 with seed 7

and then the rest drawn out of the hat

so that means from my seeding it would look like this

big nipper and ripper
iron awe and velocirippa
thz and kan opener
dantomkia and tiberious
kapow and envy
beast and turbulence

might need to move kan opener up got a tough one there

can pay me at the next event for doing the hard work of the seeding - will do the feathers next for robo challenge but there that many its hard to do lol beauty 1st tho ye? LF and my fellow flipper friends up there aswel

You made a mistake - Kapow has gone in twice - you should then technically be against Turbulence - sorry, but its my field as an audience member to make sure something is right - like (say) the line-up :wink:

[john]

hehe ye i noticed that and changed it quick before me 3 mins ran out

should have put envy at seed 10 so it was against THZ after the comment he made in team loser thread :blush:

Thats Ka-Pow!, not Kapow... Gotta have the hyphen and the exclamation mark! Envy eh? No problem. Itll make a change from beating Beast again anyway...
