(evil grin)
oh, I think the tables will be at full height...... just like we did
for monkeys. we have not lost a robot to the games yet.
sure we lost a few to some stairs and streetcar tracks; but we don't
talk about that in public.

OH for the love of Gawd....... I just finished BEGGING Bruce to accept
the one RCX rule. I had to offer to be NICE to him, and a sum of $$
changed hands. Then YOU come out and ask....... argh, rass-a frass-a

OK, if i read what you are asking correctly, then I am, very flexible on
size, but I do want to stick with the one RCX rule. BUT BE FORE WARNED
this might just be the last ban on multi-rcx games. I have a "feeling"
that from r12 onwards it will be unrestricted Lego with no penalty.
I have to ask, if the gap going to be 8 inches, where is the challenge
in making a robot 18 inches?? that's why we choose the 12 inch maximum
size. I'll listen to your arguments though.
