  Re: rtlToronto15: Last Saturday of January?
 
(...) Calum, I'll save everyone a lot of time: Steve H: has some LITTLE sumo game. he is going to enter 14 robots, and they plan on having a total of 15.

  rtlToronto15: Last Saturday of January?
 
Hi folks, I need people to tell me if they're okay with the last Saturday of January 2004 as the next rtlToronto contest. January 31st, 2004 (ie, long range, no vacations, weddings, polar ice fishing expeditions, air mile blackout periods) We're (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Chris' notebook
 
(...) I walk in with this 1x1x1 foot LEGO block and Victor takes one look and says, "Oh my..." Was a moment to be sure. Iain still beat me, though, and I've been playing 'catch up' to his robot finess ever since (...) You posted a link to something? (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Chris' notebook

  Re: rtl 14 time extension?
 
(...) At this point, I don't see why not. As it is, I suspect Sept 13 will turn into a workshop of some kind. By the way, I solved the digging problem by rotating an asymmetrical mass on my EOAT (yes everyone, I built a vibrator out of Lego). Hope (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  rtl 14 time extension?
 
I'm wondering if we could make the matches a bit longer? My robot is pretty darn slow. I found I had to gear things WAY down to provide enough torque to dig through the rice. I wonder if there are others in a similar situation? Not that it really (...) (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtl14 roundup?
 
(...) I'll be there. With a robot? Yes (actually with robotS)! With a working robot? We'll see... Sined, Greg H (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  I hate rice
 
After a full day of building, I have come to the conclusion I'm screwed. Our plan of attack is quite flawed. I have a nice robot that jumps happily into the rice (actually, the jump into the rice could also be a suicide attempt... haven't actually (...)

  Re: rtl14 roundup?
 
(...) You can count me in too. I have collaborated with a friend. The fruit of our labour is the biggest, heaviest, slowest, and most complicated robot we have ever built. (...) Sure! Maybe I can get my hopper working 100% by then... ;) Rob (21 years ago, 9-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
