Question ....

On the schedule it's has two games in one slot ... I have assumed it's an either or situation not both.

If so when will we know what we are playing ? Or have I missed something?

Cheers

Pink is the new black

Re: 22nd & 23rd May 2010 - Robots Live - Norwich

I echo Jonno's question actually

Also, I have no paint except black so someone might have to bring some blue paint for me.

Cabrakan's in need of some serious work, I haven't actually been able to get him out of the car since Aylsebury, no-one around to help me, so it still needs charging.

The slots with 2 games are either, don't know which will be used in each show yet. Also another thing ive been asked, you can swap/share drivers around within the teams (obviously this doesn't apply to the UK champs fights).

Re: 22nd & 23rd May 2010 - Robots Live - Norwich

Hiya,

We can€™t plan who€™s doing what until we know what game we are playing as you€™ve set a rule where robots can€™t do consecutive games.

When will you decide? As the Hockey/Bulldog ties up 4 robots for our choice who then can€™t be used for the next game of Pinball !

Or by consecutive does that mean within a show€¦ ie a robot CAN do the Hockey, an then do the next challenge of Pinball because there is a gap in the shop and other fights inbetween.

Does this make sense?

Re: 22nd & 23rd May 2010 - Robots Live - Norwich

i think the aim is make it so all robots in the team take part in at least one game, (excluding the melee where everybody has to go in anyway), to stop one robot taking part in all of the challenges and leaving some in the team with none. But i'll get Rob to confirm that.

Re: 22nd & 23rd May 2010 - Robots Live - Norwich

ok check with the boss man,

So as long as each robot does something, sounds like its pretty flexible. As long as we know.

I've sorted out who's doing what in any contingency, so its no bother to me, however I hope we get to do pinball because one of the teams machines is built for it, and would be useless at the alternative :P

And the winners are.......... The Tilly Allstars!!!

Well done guys shame we couldn't be there today but we had a great time yesterday

Also well done to Team Barbie for coming second sounds like it was really close until the final melee.

Finally thanks to Robots Live and Rob & Gilbert for all their hard work with organising and running the shows we all really enjoyed it.

I'll try to get a few videos online over the next week or so.

Thanks Again and well done to the Allstars!!!!

Really enjoyed our time at the event even though it was only one show. Well done guys, very brave choice of event format and seemed to work really well. Nice to see those horrible boys from Team Bud getting booed but it was funny seeing the Bullfrog going out of the arena when they absolutely definitely weren't having weapons!!

Well done Shane and the All Stars.... Close final, all went a bit T^^s up really in the final.

Ripper and MM being thrown out by IA5....
Ripper not working in the race as the main anderson had been unplugged by the oota
Then getting 5 points knocked off for cheating ( apparently )
Lucky in the pool.
Ripper ootad again by IA5 early on, Meggamouse link came out, Toon Raider started on only 1 wheel, Apoc did well getting IA5 out.... and our star last robot running ... Scorpion !!!

Could have gone better.

Well done to Rob and Gilbert..... If anyone things RL and RR have an easy time selling tickets... speak to ROB... I think he'd disagree. It is a lot of work, and its nice to see other peoples eyes being opened !

Format was cool... something different.... Enjoyed the pink theme.... hope i get to wear my T shirt sgain soon !
