I too had a great time! I wisely decided not to fix my stoopid sorting
mechanism, and ended up in second place! Bruce was very happy about that! About
your strategy, Chris and Steve, I thought it was amazing. I think it would have
worked if the ants were just a bit smarter. Just think about it, each of those
ants had the same computing power as Daves super deluxe block eater.... Anyway,
it was very original and inspiring.

I think I said that... Oh Whatever, all that matters is that the next game,
whosever idea it was is going to be really cool. I am really excited about
having to do zero programming. In my mind this next competition is a purely
mechanical challenge. Just what I like:)

| I have a jumble of thoughts and statements. was everyone pleased with the room size??? Should we continue to rent all 3 rooms. for those who remember the last robot games, we just had 1 room. A big Thank you to CALUM who did Much for this event. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
