I may not have a choice gary, I doubt I'd afford the hotels round there, probably kip in the car.

I have a k*bots event the week leading up to this, I am not sure if I can be there for the friday, which is when all the qualifying fights would be I presume ?

If I can make it, I'll sign up Satanix, and get him straightened out and a few wounds welded :P

Dave, while most of the qualifying fights will probably be on the Friday, the Robo Challenge guys accepted that some people won't be able to manage that day (due to having kids in school etc) and are trying to arrange it so that your qualifying battles are scheduled on the day you can make it. It's mentioned somewhere in the first post of this thread.
There's a section on the sign-up form where you can select whether Friday or Saturday suits better.

Being the champs, will there not be any whiteboard events? Just thinking it's most likely my team could only make it up for one day, meaning competing wouldn't work.....

yeh normally what happens is as the competition goes on less robots are in it so there are less fights and more time for whiteboards and grudge matches etc

It's obviously not been long enough to forget after the last event

Ok so if no one else is gonna then i'm gonna start the trash talking. Everyone else is going home in a bin bag!!

I'd be more surprised if something I built didn't come home in a black bag.

Thats correct Jamie qualifying will be Friday and Saturday to accommodate every body. Once we have most entries we will let everyone know which day they will be qualifying on. The knockout stages, finals, annihilator most whiteboards will all be on the sunday.
