Note everyone, 10.1 is THIS FRIDAY, March 8th at 6pm at the University of
Toronto. I mailed out a few people with an email, but the event into was

The code's relatively easy to do. Just download the code example from the
BBRC website, tweak it to fit your robot, then compile/upload it using NQC.
Get BricXCC or RCXCC with NQC and it's extra easy!
Robots must be no larger than 8 inches cubed.

Making the attempt and effort is the point-don't worry if you can't get it
