I want to hear a votes on:
a) three tables, one flag
Pros: Less possibility of robots running over the other person's flag
before attempting to span bridge. Increased aggresion between robots on
center island.
Cons: Have to contend with second robot in competition for the flag.
b) two tables, two flags
Pros: Simpler game with one goal for each person.
Cons: Scoring complications (due to figuring out scores for people who have
their flags knocked out by other robot before they get a chance to lift them)
Let's finalize. Present your arguments for either, but I want a vote from
each rtlToronto member (where member is defined by someone within the
Windsor/Ottawa corridor that will be actually bringing a robot to said event)

| Vote #2 For 3 tables, 1 flag. This will allow a clear decision on a winner, ie. the robot that gets to the flag (and lifts it) first. From Calum's other message: (...) I'm not sure I agree with the idea that the ONLY goal of the game is to build a (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| My vote is for a. I think it's time for some robot carnage, after the last two events. BTW, thanks 'subconscious' for your suggestion... I hadnt thought of using something like that. (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| Since I don't know if I'm bringing a participating robot ... (most likely not) I won't cast my vote...but I'll add my input anyways. I already said it would make a very interesting battle if there was only one flag, and two robots fighting for it. (...) (22 years ago, 11-May-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| vote for three tables, one flag. Much easier to score. IIRC, the discussion we had at Mel's when this whole flag thing came up went something like this: - Let's build a JunkYardWars bridge building bot. - Nah, too boring. - OK, then let's make each (...)
