Maybe robot high jump? More one for the flippers but load a few all turned over and see who can get the highest?

Fairly crummy idea but I'm trying

With the 'craig danby' annihilators, even if one gets immobilised the fight continues until the end of 3mins or until there's 1 left standing. Robot that goes out first gets eliminated.

Just put 8 robots in, 2 from each team, and when both robots from each team are out the team are out.
At the end of the fight award the teams 1st - 4th place on whos left running. That's like an Annihilator without the messing about of stopping a fight half way through ! :-)

That's what Andy Kane's issue at the O2 was because he couldn't understand as a show annihilators don't work, the fight has to last the full distance or it could be over in 5 seconds and that's no good.

Hi John & Alan

Very few people know what I've been up to over the summer

John she's ready for you if you would like her in your team, but I can only do Saturday.

As you know Scorpion is in retirement so I'll just have to bring Titan

Why did you retire Scorpion?

[Scorpionbuilder]

Re: Robots Live! - 29th & 30th September 2012 - LC2, Swansea

From her first conception in series 4 to now means she's an old lady, she's earned it. She's now nailed to the wall for posterity

Re: Robots Live! - 29th & 30th September 2012 - LC2, Swansea

With all the bits taken out I would presume?

I was watching Scorpions first appearance on YouTube yesterday. Does that shell still exist?

Real shame it's properly retired, it was a cool robot

Re: Robots Live! - 29th & 30th September 2012 - LC2, Swansea

Looks like it won't be the only one retiring. By the looks of it I will be bringing KO in a bag. To the pleasure of some no doubt.
