lol

One of our flippers goes the right way too

Why only have one when you can have two instead. Best of both worlds you see

Looks like we have a grudge match... has been noted, and worked into the format

Anything would be great for the raffle,even alchohol, although can€™t guarantee any alcohol finding its way to the prize table past the pits though.

But seriously, we are in a great position to raise some good money for charity, old bits of robot, we can get those signed, posters, ermm what else...

We are throwing in,

2 x remote control robot wars Growlers,
Some bits of arena signed wood
A chance to drive some remote control cars, against the feather weight flippers of this world.
And some other bits n bobs.


Going to be a slight format change, away from the norm just an experiment.

While we will still be running the white board fights, for our €œ friendly €œ competition, where trophies are always up for grabs.
I plan to make each robot fight 1 random picked fight in each session. To compete for the trophies, you must take part in this slightly more formalised regime.

Open for suggestions, and comments, but this has come from a few comments from roboteers.

Dont forget Merlin Vs Big Nipper Vs Mute. Sounds like a sheifield re-match then. Seems as though even if mute are in the pit they can still cause Merlin to lose .

Ill try and dig out the old jaw that Razor crushed in Series 5 if you want it for the raffle.

Went to the 3pm show, and it was EXCELLENT! Every fight was great! The Robot Suicide melee (9 heavyweights and 2 featherweights) might have been better if a lot of the robots hadnt died so quickly, but I guess thats what going to happen if you put that many robots in such a small arena!

Roaming Robots, Preston 29th Feb 2004

mmm, wish id went :sad:

Best event yet, Congrats to Jonno and the team,
and to Richards comment that a lot died quickly, it was the last fight of the day, good to see so many still running after a hard days event.
