29th December 2007 - Robo Challenge at Thinktank

Although Ive not officially signed up for this event yet (just waiting to hear if my teammate can manage) Ill be bringing along Drumroll (with spinning drum weapon finally attached) and Snakebite (vertical crusher). Rather than do a tag team with these two, Im open to offers; if anyone wants either of these machines on their tag team, just let me know

i will let you know. im not sure if my daughter is ready for full combat yet, but her robot KAHN is!

i think it should be just a four way fight, as like said above i dont think tagging each other in and out will work. one robot that will definatley be their 100% is prodigy evolution, its invertible with a horizontal 3kg spinning disc. will put a full spec on the fw database of its exact spec of rpm and power in the near future. so please note im pretty sure i will be looking for a tag team partner, but it would be good if their was a few whiteboard scraps to keep my daughter entertained and test KAHN.

but then again would it not be interesting to put all the names in a hat and pick tag teams that way?

Just got a couple of questions about this event:

- The first post in this thread says its on the 29th, as does the thread title, but on the website, its down as being the 28th and 29th December. Just wondering which of these is correct?

- And with the tag team; since its a team of two feathers with a grand total weight of 24kg, does this mean if one feather weighs 9kg, the other one can weigh 15kg??

Thanks,
Jamie

We are doing a show on 2 days at thinktank, however only the saturday we are doing a competition, it does give the one date on the sign up page sorry for the confusion

Both machines have to weigh 12kg or under. with a combined weight of 24kg or under

From the sounds of peoples oppinions we will be letting you decide your tag partners.

what happens to the ones that dont get picked. remember when you were at school picking a team for football practice? does anyone think it might be a bit predictable if you pick your own teams, their are always stronger robots and wouldnt these get picked first, what about the newbees who might get further in a competition being teamed up with a more experianced roboteer.maybe im wrong but im only making suggestions.

Random selection of teams - although I can bring my own tag team I can only drive one at a time.

2on2 format is better, no-one stays put when their partner is struggling.

I am for allowing those that want to pair up to pair up and then everyone else can be selected on the day.

If these tag teams are going to be the same as the tag teams i take part in at the AWS, i will probably end up OOTAing my tag team partner when he gets between me and an opponent (happened twice now at the AWS).

only problem with leaving it until the day is the possability of haveing odd numbers so somebody will have to pull out. Another way could be those who have chosen a partner are already sorted and those who havent or just would like luck of the draw get picked on the day?
