Wow what an event! Last year I honestly thought it couldn't be topped.
The standard of machines this year seemed to be on another level. Machines were reliable, exciting and the majority very competitive. First off we would like to say a big thank you and well done to every team that entered and supported Robo Challenge in hosting the UK Championships. There was a great balance of camaraderie in the pits and the tension of a national sporting event. Big well done to every team.
Commiserations to Sam Smith with NST, really couldn't see a machine stopping it after a faultless drive, very unlucky. The gouge it put in 720's drum was near identical to Nightmare v Warhead!
Big congratulations to Calum with TS3 for winning the Annihilator! How that machine didnt get through the league stage I do not know. Very relentless and well driven, a future UK Champion for sure.
Congratulations to Dave Moulds and 720. Very impressive machine for its first outing. Thought it could make the finals but narrowly missed out. Very close triple champ for Beauty 2. Really nice machine and very well driven. I know people route for the under dog and prefer for successful machines to fail but you have to admit B2 is a seriously good machine. Well done John & Jonno!
Congratulations to Explosion! after 2 years of coming 2nd its a thoroughly deserved UK Champion! Really well driven in all battles and stood up to a beating in the semi's. Well done to Michael & Adrian and best of luck for retaining it next year!
Thank you to Kane, Wayne and Pete for Judging. I think this years event has really topped the lot and I cant wait for next year (plans already in place
)
For myself competing with Predator despite loosing in both battles I was really pleased with the performance. The disc was alot more effective than i imagined and the overall machine I felt was very competitive in both fights. The original plan was to retire the machine for demos however having seen the machine in action I do think it could get into the knockout stages if I can make it a bit more stable so Im going to make changes and enter it next year. I hope you guys enjoyed watching it.
Once again thank you very much for your support, well done and we already look forward to next year! Awards voting coming very soon!Comment

@Kane are you editing together the qualifying rounds also?Comment

Kane has already completed the 2 Qualifying groups, maybe the knockout stage would be good to see too if possible.
The FRA are just working on the nominees for the 2013 FW Awards so it wont be long before voting begins!Comment

And a best bits/hits video of the whole comp!
If one's made as an event trailer then I'll see about doing the audio post production.Comment

Doing video without audio in place is pretty much impossible. I intend to make a montage with the footage we shot.Comment

not a lot of footage of IC....lolComment

Thanks to everyone who has uploaded videos of battles from this event. Especially microgravity.
Kane those edited vids are awesome, hope you'll be able to construct one with Sundays competition also.

We're back home now, over the next few weeks I'll start getting what we shot uploaded. I hope to make a Tormenta 2 specific video, and a montage for the champs. Plus any complete fights I filmed.Comment

It's taking me ages to edit down my videos and due to my moderately rubbish internet connection, it would take even longer to upload all 77 videos. Since Jarvis and Kane pretty much have footage covered, I'll just be uploading RogueTwo/Scot-Bots videos, but I've got almost all of the fights so if anyone wants any particular battle uploaded (maybe for an alternative angle) just holler and I'll get on to it.
Might have a wee crack at another montage video though as well. Quite pleased with how last year's one turned out

Sounds good Jamie- maybe another "best hits" clip would be cool.Originally posted by RogueTwoRobots View PostIt's taking me ages to edit down my videos and due to my moderately rubbish internet connection, it would take even longer to upload all 77 videos.

We should probably have a censored section of the forum, for pictures of roboteers getting freaky with their robots round the back of the venue. Don't want to scare off potential newcomers.Comment
