  rtlToronto 13 event pics
 
Hi folks, I've posted all my photos from the event - I think I've got personality shots of most competitors and their bots, plus a smattering of other ones. They're 1600x1200 'cuz I haven't had the time to downscale them yet. (URL) E (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: name that tune
 
(...) Ahh, May 2001. Plast-Ex 2001. Introduction to Topscan. Good times are had by all. Aurora - "Ordinary World" (I have a nagging feeling that I might have used a remix of that tune or something. Look about, that'll give you something to start (...) (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  name that tune
 
Hey guys. I just found my copy of the train1 movie from May 2001. Can someone tell me the name of the song in the movie and who sings it? Russell BayLUG/BayLTC (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) <snip> (...) Between sleeping too well ;) and replacing rad hoses on the pickup (I awoke to a big puddle of anti-freeze under my vehicle), I didn't make it to The Big Smoke. I'm glad everyone had an awesome time! 18 'bots? That's a record! (...) (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: NEXT GAME
 
I think we said 20 black and 20 white pieces, and the box would be filled to 5.08cm (for Iain) with rice. Bruce (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

OK, I've already talked about the software that was written by Steve. He loosely explained how the software worked; then boasted about how he wrote it. Everything was fine and suspicion free.... UNTIL Magically Stave came in first. hummm I guess he (...) (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Where oh Where...
 
(...) Sounds like fun, and a pretty nice synopsis, but... what was the outcomes, or are we going to have to wait for Calum to do his magic... Ben (22 years ago, 16-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Where oh Where...
 
has my little dave gone!! Where oh where could he be.... we had a GREAT event.... I did not win but neither did Bruce. We had a lot of regulars show up with NOTHING, and for the first time our group had 18 entrants. AND for the first time we had (...) (22 years ago, 16-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: BULK buys of 9756 available - 17 CAD$ per unit, minimum 20 units
 
Oh I'd be interested in coming down for sure, but with 2 kids (2 years and 4 years) free time is hard to come by, I'v been trying to come down/watching dates for about a year, and have yet to be able to hit an event. And I have way more than 20 if (...) (22 years ago, 15-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Programming help tomorrow
 
<supress competitive sarcasm> Hi guys, I was wondering if I could get some help for a friend of mine. I know we usually have a "bring your own laptop" policy, but he doesn't have access to one, and his robot isn't programmed yet. He also has no RCX (...)

  Re: I'm going to sleep well tonight...
 
Chris, as usual, I'm sure your robot will be 'interesting', but, a winner…surely you jest. Count yourself lucky that we don’t have qualifying rounds! Dave, what’s the deal? We come up with a contest that’s not one you can just tweak that run-a-mucky (...) (22 years ago, 15-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

YEP... I'm going to win this. looks like it'll be Bruce, Calum, and Jeff E's meri-go-round bot. maybe Steve H will show UP.. but i wont count on it till I see his robot. Yep, if Calum is my competition then I've got this all wrapped.... I'm sure (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: I'm going to sleep well tonight...
 
I'm screwed. After hours of building: "Oh, the thing can't turn! it's too heavy! Joy!" And I have yet to start programming. Maybe I'll be showing up with another non-functioning 'bot. -Greg (sweetly retarded cousin) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: I'm going to sleep well tonight...
 
(...) Simple and elegant? 7 tasks? 3 watchers? The only complexity in my bot is that you have to make sure you wind up the capacitor *right before* the match starts, or the Merry go Round will stop before 3 minutes are up. Because when Chris sees (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
