(...) I think I have enough balls already. Each soccer bus (eight copies), grandstand (like...14 copies), playfield (1 copy) came with a pile of them. I can lend them out to those who don't have the balls to do it themselves. I'm sure you have a (...) (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

From a contest point of view the best way to use the soccer balls would be to distribute them to the contestants to work with as they built there robots. And this just doesn't (...)

(...) Y’know, that's very nice of you. I don't have anything to do with the rtl robotic games, but i still wanted to comment on how nice that gesture is! (Nik was very lucky to win…although I'm sure he’s inundated with them.) ;-P -R (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) How about creating a division/class for the upcoming event (does it have a funky name, yet?) which would allow people to control their 'robot' manually? They would be allowed to send signals to the device in whatever way they want (wires or (...) (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
