(...) No. Chris has vehemently discarded RCX limitations for all future rtlToronto events. If Lego made a high density cluster of RCXes, you could use all of them in rtl12. Calum (22 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) wont this just make a big trampoline? unless you mean something else and will make 16 small trampolines... in either case, I think we need a solid surface. -- Chris (22 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) if you are referring to the old (outdated) rule of modifying one score based on home many RCXen a person has, then the answer is we no longer have that rule.

(...) I've never really liked the My Own Train cars. They're far too American for my tastes (even if the Metroliner seems to have an Amtrak livery, it still has a very European style to it), the sets themselves have a lot of repetitive elements (14 (...)

(...) I like to take my time with large (ie, 700+ piece sets) sets. I think I took two or three days to get through the SuperCar. I also like to ask a friend to come and help. (...)

(...) Yeah sure, if my own hand can be counted as a LEGO piece... OTOH if we still have the 1/N rule, then a pure mechanical bot only need to stack two pieces to get infinite points. So do we still have that rule? (22 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Like Dave and Derek, I got my yellow-labelled box of happiness in the mail recently. Among other things, it contained my first Club Car and my first Metroliner. I built the club car Tuesday night, and the Metroliner last night. On Tuesday, I also (...) (22 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
