  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) So, you want to create more rules, to prevent some stratigies from working/being used? I don't think that's how it works. Maybe you should come up with a strategy to defeat "The Entangler" (...) hmm. Of course. no AC! :) If I must do (...) (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I see a very easy fix to this problem. :-) Derek (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) One possible downside would be; if Chris' robot got stuck in the rice, he could lift the power cord, give it a slight tug, and suddenly, it's unstuck. I know no one would do that on purpose, and it COULD be obvious when someone tried it, but (...) (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
Great rule...Who in their right mind would then use AC?? Out of interest, I've recently re-designed my robot and thus AC is no longer an issue for me, however, I still fully support the use of AC, and I don't see what could possibly be the downside (...)

  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) UH calum.... clearly by making a rule that will allow a robot to win by default, you have changed the nature of the game. ergo.... FIX IT!!!! (...) I still maintain that it was "worth it" smirk! Chris crane rhymes with train. (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) The rule seems pretty clear. "...and any entanglement means immediate forfeit to the other player." if it doesn't get entanglemented, it's fine. :) Maybe I will build a robot for this event. It'll be called "The Entangler". It has a 36 inch (...) (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) OK, i don't want to sound like one of those guys that digs for loop holes. Unlike SOME people who build self balancing robots.... BUT. ;) <--- sorry steve. if i lay on the ground 1 AC line. and some other robot just drives over it. AND DOES (...) (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtlToronto14 AC rule change?
 
(...) If you weren't going to be a pest, you wouldn't ask :) (URL) what I've put up. AC power is allowed, however, your robot (not you) have to keep the harness from touching other robots. Meaning, you will have to build some sort of structure to (...) (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
