Hi guys,

Got some time over the holidays?  Have a burning desire to try your hand at Lego
robotics or attempting a tough new challenge? Consider yourself invited to build
for rtlToronto15 this January!

rtlToronto, a group for Lego Enthusiasts in the Greater Toronto and Southern
Ontario Area, is presenting rtlToronto15, our 13th Lego robotics challenge.
Intended for advanced and entry builders, this event features two games:

a) Deep Yellow, where robots play the classic children's game, Connect Four,
against each other autonomously.  The robots handle scanning the gameboard,
analyzing where to move using game theory, then dropping the actual pieces like
real players.

b) Marble Sorting v4, intended for new competitors, with robots collecting,
sorting and returning coloured marbles to a home base.

Teams are already starting to build their robot entries for this contest.

So, come join us in sunny Toronto, Ontario, Canada on Saturday, January 31st,
2004, and start building!

Calum
rtlToronto Organizer

I read the rules but had a couple of questions still: 1) what colour is the rest of the playfield (i.e. neither the black nor white corners)? 2) what size are the corners? 8x8, the same as the maximum sobot size? 3) What is the anticipated marble (...)
