  Re: [rtlToronto] rtlToronto15: Connect Four and rtlToronto15: Rope Climbing Photos Available
 
(...) I had this really manual way of making those old albums--little scripts in PhotoShop to make the thumbnails, a little Excel thing to generate the HTML manually.

(...) I like it well enough - and just wanted to say, welcome to somewhere around 2001 :) FrontPage?!? Gah. And here I was, thinking you're a real geek, writing HTML by hand :) (21 years ago, 27-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hi folks, Thanks to the photography of Rob Antonishen, David-Daniel Day, Mario DeFacendis, Steve Hassenplug, Ivan Louch, Derek Raycraft, and myself, here's some fabulous photos of rtlToronto15 and rtlToronto16, two robotics competitions here in (...)

(...) A lot of these events is pure luck :) (...) This sounds pretty reasonable, an emphasis on towers with some for sorting and homing. Calum (21 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Onwards to rtlToronto18...
 
(...) The more I think about this the more I agree with David. It's a block stacking event. You score points if you stack blocks. Derek (21 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Onwards to rtlToronto18...
 
(...) What if we said that a 'bot could enter if it could only scan the Connect 4 board, or drop a chip anywhere and still be counted (though, so I'm told, that's what some of them did) The event is block stacking. We've done it 3 times before. If (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Onwards to rtlToronto18...
 
(...) I didn't get to see it either. I think we were too busy running our C$ robots in the final... But, I believe it moved all the marbles onto the opponent's square, because the penalty for "wrong" marbles was bigger than the points for "right" (...)

(...) Ok, I can't remember, what did this robot do that was considered a loop hole in the rules? (...) True it does allow for a pure sorting robot. Maybe we don't want to allow that. I thought it allowed for a good entry level robot. But it could (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Onwards to rtlToronto18...
 
(...) I used to be kind of against this, because I'm sick of loophole pokers (Steve, JeffE, I'm looking in your direction...) but the thing is, we have better things to do than to try and outrule everyone. That and Steve never does it anyways. He's (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
