  Re: One more rule verification
 
(...) I would agree with that scoring. And I want to see your rover climb out of a (min) 5" high shell :) So go for it! I do wonder about the definition of "in" though. If you have a stationary outer shell shaped like an open 'U' with three openings (...) (19 years ago, 23-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: One more rule verification
 
(...) I think that by leaving this option open many will build one part that goes around and dispense the blocks and the second part which can just stand in one spot and have many transfer openings. If everyone agrees to it then I'm fine with it (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: One more rule verification
 
(...) Well, I want to hear what others (eg Derek, RobA, Iain, Vitali) have to say, as they are more important than my opinion...but... I would take the block count inbound of the two as the greater of the two. So if Part A gets 5 unique blocks and (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) That's the exact configuration I had, down to the axle joiners :) Problem is, the spacing is too far--it doesn't grip the brick. It's like as if it needs an extra millimeter of diameter on each wheel. I might 'cheat' and put some rubber bands (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  One more rule verification
 
If I have two 'bots that start in 1x1x1 cu ft, and both have transfer openings, and at the word 'start', these two 'bots separate and go about their business... At the end of 3-5 minutes, do blocks in each 'bot count together, or separate? Dave K (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I enjoy these blogs, btw. I've been trying to build a block cannon and one of the problems was getting the blocks to slide down the channel properly. I will set up a blog page for mine tonight. Has anyone figured out a good spacing and choice (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(URL) which I go on about my latest build--it's together and all the parts work separately, but, as noted in the blog, when put all together, there were a few issues. That didn't stop me from making a blog about it... And since block transfer videos (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
