  Tug of War - R21
 
Whats the status of your robots for the real(1) cool Tug of War R21 game? Chris 1. (URL) (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Well, there are parts in my Den that I assume will assemble into a Tug of War robot. But I will have something, even if it's just a motor, battery pack and winch for July 29nd. Derek (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The Indian outsourcing shop I contracted to develop it has the specifications now. I should see a release candidate any day now. Calum (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Good plan, that will give you plenty of time to work on the poster. Janey "Would love to make it, but I have plans, Red Brick" (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) If that doesn't work for you, maybe you should try an Indiana shop. (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) I dunno, I've been told that Indiana shops steal your ideas and implement them elsewhere. That's been a major issue with outsourcing :) Calum (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) Yes, I should have said that. (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) I have a working entry. It's simple but it works. Currently it's 1lb 6.6 oz. I think 1lb 8oz is one and half pounds. Anyway I plan to bring parts to balance it out on the official scale. By the way who is bring the scale? I've got a simple (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Yeah that's why it should be *metric*. :) I thought an Oz was an Australian! Iain (60 kg and 1m92 of metric-pushin' fun) (18 years ago, 23-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) > Derek, if you could bring your simple scale that would be great. I will try to bring mine. and if one of us remembers then THAT will be the official scale. This will be a fin little game. I cant wait. Chris (18 years ago, 23-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) (URL) I don't know how heavy it is. (18 years ago, 23-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) WOW, cool robot, but ummmm, Ka-on, the rope climbing contest was like 2 YEARS ago. OK, at a guess, i think your bot will be CLOSE to the 1.5lb limit. I have discovered that this rule is the one we should actually "enforce." With this game, (...) (18 years ago, 24-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) This one just grab the rope tightly. The second one may actually climb a little. Yeah I started a second one last night and it's 70% done. One 'team' can enter two entries, right? ;) Or may be I will combine the best part of the two into one (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) Yeah, you can bring as many as you want. Calum (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) I'm going to bring a few. They might not be contest worthy, but they'll demonstrate the concepts I was considering. Derek (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Tug of War - R21
 
(...) I should clarify, they all might not be contest worthy. I'll have at least one that is. Derek (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) you can enter as MANY robots as you want. we call this "pulling a hassenplug" but that was getting old, so now we call it the Hassenplug/Antonishen Effect or H.A.E. for short. (pronounced "Hey!") (...) I agree. I built 2 identical robots and (...) (18 years ago, 27-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
