|
| | | | | | | (...) Just a suggestion from an 'outsider' (non-RTL person) - how about robots that have to climb the rope, then back down to the ground, and back to their starting spot, or to a common "finish line"? This would make multiple challenges: Find the (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | | | | | (...) In defence of Rob, he showed up for Marble Sorting (or hoarding... whatever). In defence of me, I've let the leaders know when I was going to be involved, or not going to be involved, in a competition well before hand. Don't 'dumb' things down (...)

| | | | | | | | (...) The rope climbing sounds interesting... I could try it. However, I always up for a "marble sorting/block stacking/whatever competition." Maybe enter both! And I'll really, really try to be there this time! -Greg (20 years ago, 4-Feb-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | | | | | (...) I'll run another marble sorting if the desire is ther (and the leaders approve) I think, though, the rope climbing is a Good Thing(tm). Just so I get more excercise, I'd say that the 4x4 arena should be there, that the 'bots start in the (...) (20 years ago, 4-Feb-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
