  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Which I agree would be a very cool thing to see, especially with some strategic filming. Is there not room for both? Again, it would be neat to include Spybotics as well - depending on the behaviour you are trying to get. (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Hi! Cool. Now I'm a cohort ;-) (...) Well, sort of... the robotic forklift I brought to HoB is currently the most complex module (that I *know* about) that requires an RCX, but there are some other options. A ball-sorting mechanism is (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) TOTALLY agree. Not saying it's not relevant to robotics, there is lots of clever mechanical stuff to be learned from GBC... Just saying it's somewhat in a different direction from leaving a bunch of identical RCX based autonomous mobile (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Not having an RCX does not necesarily make it irrelevant to robotics. I consider automatons fairly relevant - and the technique of getting a single motor to do many things is a very valuable one, especially considering the IO limitations of (...)

  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Right, but haven't you and your cohorts (Hi Brian!) been busily proving that there hasn't yet been a mechanism that NEEDED an RCX? Most of the GBC modules are (brilliantly, elegantly...) purely mechanical except for the train ball return, and (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

More will be announced soon, but you can get started by looking here: (URL) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: About Emerge
 
(...) Speaking of Vote Counting... Mosaic/Scultpure needs a coordinator for this year's BrickFest. Several people were ALMOST tricked into (...ahem, convinced to help the community out by) doing it but each had some lame excuse like going to Russia, (...)

  Re: Sorry! (was Re: FAQ Help)
 
(...) I don't think it really is a question of your behavior, Peter. The rule is that you must be accompanied by a parent/guardian who will assume any liabilty and/or act on your behalf in case anything happens. On a lighter note, I do hope this (...)

(...) <Snip> (...) Hey Peter, I'm not an official Brickfest person or anything, but I can answer you're questions. You can certainly bring MOCs regardless of age. One of the Castle guys last year was underage and brought some great MOCs. Also, (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
 
  Sorry! (was Re: FAQ Help)

  Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
I've wondered about this for over a year now, but haven't brought it up because of not making it to the BF events. Now I can't stand it anymore and must ask. Have RCX owners considered pooling their units to run an event-long simulation? Each of us (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
