    How many people are brining bots? —Jeff Van Winden

        Re: How many people are brining bots? —Jeff Elliott
     I'm bringing three: a rack & pinion trike, a fragile tank/skid steerer with a kicker, and an upgraded tank identical in design but less prone to self-destruct. I'm also bringing three towers, three cables, the little patch cable and a floppy with my (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

     (...) Here's who I know is coming: Greg Hyland, Chris Magno (might be late), Iain Hendry, Derek. I figure more will show up anyways. I have the playfield walls in my cube here and am decorating them with MIE department logos right now. Calum (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

     (...) I definitely plan on showing up....with 2 bots (who will plan on demonstrating the incredible synchronized dancing soccer bots...) :) I will also bring 2 IR devices (from RIS 1.0 @ 1.5) and possibly the Sante Fe train, if it has arrived in the (...)

     (...) Well it will be a small miracle if mine arrives by today. Since others are bring theirs, maybe I'll bring something else from my order. Ya, look at this cool pack of 2x2 white tiles. Ya. :-) Derek (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
   
        Re: How many people are brining bots? —Ivan Louch
     I'll definitely try to make it by 6. I'll bring one very evil 'tank' steer player that is inspired by 3 back-to-back BattleBots episodes. Featuring half-a-dozen battery boxes on a pneumatic driven "kicker". Generating up to 20 kg of downward force (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
    
         Re: How many people are brining bots? —Jeff Elliott
     Of course, we'll sort this out tonight, but I don't see why we should bar anti-robot strategies unless they violate our usual standards. That is, no using string or wires as weapons (too easy) no dumping of substantial numbers of parts on the play (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

   (...) I'm not going to even attempt to battle traffic until 6 p.m. so I won't be in Toronto until after 7ish. There you are. I have built a quick 'bot at home (w/ kicker) but it's still at home :( So I think I'll just wait until the next event. Have (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
