(...) Here's a half-a-thought: Start with a building say 5 rooms wide by 5 floors tall and two rooms wide all built out of Lego. Each room is large enough for a pingpong or golf ball. The building is built to a pre-established size that is known to (...) (24 years ago, 19-Feb-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  DDK/MS game?
 
Since a lot of people have a DDK now (because of the cheap discounted DDK's at TRU)...is there any interest in a silly DDK game? Or is there not enough programmability for a DDK game? Calum (24 years ago, 19-Feb-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hi, I always wanted to go to those events but it seems there is always something in my life that prevent me to. I'll try to make it to the next lunch at least. As for my suggestion.

  Please don't nuke the stackers competition!
 
Hey Chris, and others, I really would like to have another go at stacking. Both times my robot was shy and didn't like to perform in front of others. I'm telling you, it really can stack, and when it does, they are really pretty, perfectly aligned (...) (24 years ago, 18-Feb-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
