  Re: rtl10 Portability
 
(...) Not that I would ever defend Chris...but, of course you realize, there is a HUGE difference between a train module and a ROBOT MODULE! (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  rtl10 Portability
 
Hi folks, Just off the phone with Chris this morning and (3...2...1...cue snowfall!) we were thinking about how to physically run the rtl10 show.

  Re: r10 Project X -- Rules update
 
K, here’s the thing—if we do head-to-head competitions, there are only 2 ‘bots involved at a time. There will be one winner and one loser. Just like the block sorting ‘bots--every ‘bot will eventually play every other ‘bot in subsequent heats. The (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  A little bit of History

  Re: r10 Project X -- Rules update
 
(...) I guess no one is going to cheat, but if my bot just say it is done at 0 sec then my score would be 24 sec at worst. So the penalty time for wrong block need to increase - I suggest 6 sec. Also how are we going to count the overall score? Do (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
