PRICELESS!!!


Beaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaautiful!!
Awesome competition, great fun, greatest amount of carnage at an rtl event!

Any match involving Dave's robot:   3-minutes of pure suspense
All other robots and "robots":      10 seconds or less
Any match involving Chris's rocket: OK everyone, clear the area!
                           followed by "owwwwww... my eye!"

and the winners in various categories are:

Most crashes:                           Chris (6?)
Fastest rebuild time between crashes:   Chris
Most entertaining robot:                Chris
Furthest trebuchet robot launch:        Chris
Best demonstration of LEGO brute force: Dave
Most RCX crashes to the floor:          Calum
Demonstration of LEGO's flexibility:    Calum

Clearly, I think Chris is the unofficial winner ;)

I'm all for doing this again sometime as a side-event....
... and yes, I would build something that time :)

John
