I was just thinking about loading up the car, throwing the kids in the trunk, grabbing my LEGOs and making the 10 hour trip to Toronto for rtl12. But then I was thinking about the date. Why does that sound familiar? Oh, I remember. There's a sumo (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hey folks, Just an idea for rtl13: Pipe Races. Build a robot that can ride along a plastic pipe-at any angle. Calum (23 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) 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 (23 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 (23 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 if you are referring to the old (outdated) rule of modifying one score based on home many RCXen a person has, then the answer is we no longer have that rule. If Calum and I can at all help it, then we will never again limit the number of RCXen (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) 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. (...) It's quite nice, but I think it sits too tall. If I could "lower" (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

So how flat is the floor in LHS? I have potential access to greenhouse 'screening' and if I grab a sheet of that, say 8 feet 8 inches square, and get 4 pieces of 1"x8"x8', and have the sheet attach to the outside walls of the 1x8's, then it's a very (...)

(...) 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? (23 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 (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
