This is pretty much an independant project though. I doubt there will ever be many people who are (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jan-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

If either doesn't work, the whole thing doesn't work. It would be (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

GBC I think is a clever idea, from an organizer standpoint: It allows people to be very creative in different dimensions and involves participants not normally interested in Technic/Mindstorms. A castle or space fan could build a cool space (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

We sat there and watched it run (on and off) for about 7 hours, and we didn't get tired of watching it. It's not like watching an event over (...)
