That's one way to ensure the ram bots don't win - schedule them to turn up after the qualifiers!

Ceri, I've replied to you e-mail with your confirmation of days.
Will/Craig - your e-mails appear to be bouncing, could you please drop me an e-mail and I will reply directly to it.
Clive - I must have made a mistake when rushing to get all the e-mails sent out - your robots arent on the list at all
I will get the correct day sent to you today.

I thought that was what the contents of the brown envelope secured Grant

Just had a look at the entry list on the website, going to be a good turn-out certainly. Quite a few new machines in there, and noticed the return of Storm Vortex too
Looking at the seeds and the list in general made me realise just how poor Drumroll's performance was last time. Only got myself to blame for rushing the design, but I've had time to sort the parts layout and improve the reliability so no excuses this time.

What coming second in the annihilator, losing only to something you can barely hit? Yeah you did crappy last year Jamie

What worries me most about this tourney, is that with captain scarlet absent, I am going to be the lightest machine in the there. Which isn't very good when your weapon is a lifter.

Whos winning this year? My money has to be on 540 I think.

Re- email thanks grant will try to today.

Also I am re-doing Tron so if you want to count it as a new robot that's OK.

Hi Craig, I have emailed you your robots qualification days now thank you.

Yes there are some fantastic new machines in the competition and its great to see the return of Storm Vortex and every UK Champion since 2006! We currently have 37 entries which means there are only 3 spaces left before we close entries and open a reserves list. If you would still like to enter but haven't signed up please do so as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your support guys its very much appreciated.

No 360? Not sure I would want to compete against it, but still would have loved to have seen it in action!

No dave is running 540, his boring rammer, yeah you heard me Dave! :P

Re: 2011 Robo Challenge UK Championships. April 15-17, NEC

Apparently it's going in a box on display as part of the Robo Challenge stand, with 540 being entered by Dave instead.
Bit of a shame as it's always fun to watch, always draws the roboteers to the arena, but then again, 540 could be just as impressive in a different way.
