Tentatively interested... but it will depend on when I have to be back at uni and how much money I have when the time comes... and if Shrapnel (aka Conker II) is finished

Re: Mad Metal Machines - Who's interested?

Is it a good floor? Or does it get pretty crappy after a few fights?

It's a good floor. less traction than MDF but it stays consistent throughout the event.

Sinds the Germans changed the floor from veneer particle board(driving on ice anybody?) to OSB board , we like the floor there.

And it is screwed on solidly on a very strong frame, and if there is a problem, it gets fixed after the first fight it becomes appearant.

Re: Mad Metal Machines - Who's interested?

Seems like a good level of initial interest
Thanks Leo & Mario for the information regarding the arena.

I hadn't actually considered alternative transport options such as trains, will have a look into it soon and see what rough costs are. Plenty of time to sort stuff out anyway as Shane said.

I might take my MDF bot PJ, should be finished by then but depends how good/crap it is :P

Hey, I´m on of the German Roboteers.
We´re looking forward to see some new faces at the MMM 14
It´s a Antweight, Raptorweight (6 Kilogramms) and Fetherweight Full Combat Event.

Saturday (12-19 p.m.) is the Full Combat Event 3 or 4 Rounds (don´t know how many participants and how much time) each Weightclass with the presentation ceremony at the end (dont know if it´s the right word) and in the evening we all go to a restaurant.
On Sunday (10-14 p.m.) there are funfights, Team Competitions, Soccer, Annihilator and other games.
After that we still need some time to dismantle the arena, so we finishe in 16 p.m.

As Marien said we have many different Hotel possibilities.

Still any questions ?

Sorry for my bad english :P

There are a few more Hotels, but the prices are in my opinion a bit to expansive.
