Re: 15th & 16th October 2011 - Robots Live - Kidderminster

Here's what you've all been waiting for...... the Team Championships will be held at Kidderminster this year. Based on last years succes at Norwich, we're making it an annual event, and this year will be at Kidderminster. So we need nominations for team captains, once we have sorted out the captains, we will sort out the teams. We will try to carry on the teams from last year for those that wish to, but likewise people can swap ect. There will be 4 teams like last year, difference this year is all 4 teams will be featured in each show (rather than alternating like we did last year), this will reduce the amount of whiteboard fights, but we aim to introduce some new games and fight formats, also tweak some from last year heres what we have so far;

Last years Games

Tag Team
Football/hockey
Pinball
Pool
Drag Race

Some new ideas;

Blindfolded drivers
Robot Swap (drivers have to drive somebody elses robot in a fight)
Tug-o-war
Flipper Frenzy/Axe Attack

If you guys have any comments or new ideas please post them.

We we're really impressed by the way some of you got into the spirit of the event, and we want to see more of that, with decorating the pits, robots, team uniforms, mascots ect.

So if Team Captains can nominate themsleves either on here or by email and we can get started.

Let the banter begin!!!

p.s. remember to sign up here http://www.robotslive.co.uk/signup2011.htm

Re: 15th & 16th October 2011 - Robots Live - Kidderminster

Thats great- was wondering whether we would get to do this again as I really enjoyed the last one!!

We should have a second heavy by that point to join the teams but we'll wait until its finished before signing it up

Ignore me, thought it was FW for some reason

Re: 15th & 16th October 2011 - Robots Live - Kidderminster

Will, now that it has been announced.. you can bank your £1000 cheque that we talked about at the O2.

Not a bad price to pay for Maelstrom to join the Barbie girls !!

I'll team up with you!
I tell you what, if nothing FW wise comes up, we can just swap our own controls. Damn it, if no one else is up for some fun, we may as well have some!
