hey Dave: Ok, here is my take on this. Bruce managed to put across a convincing argument about size and RCX's basically his point (and I agree) is that really, no one will show up with a 7' x 7' bot. of course this is pure speculation and NOT a (...)

As per usual, not exactly up on things... Maybe I should pay attention more. Anyway, is it official that the size of the 'bot is unlimited now? So if I built a robot say, 7' 11 1/2" by 7' 11 1/2" and dropped it down in the arena, and gathered up all (...) (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hi everybody! I'm going to be building a block stacker as well for the next competition. I think that the multiple RCX 1/N is a good rule.
