| | | | | (...) Okay, but that person didn't manage to stay on. So you would reward the guy who gets on the pedestal, but you punish the guy who managed to pull the first guy off, which is a feat by itself. The only concern I would have is if the scoring gets (...) (22 years ago, 2-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | | | | (...) In this case BOTH robots would get 1/2 point (draw) for being on the pedestal at some point during the match. Robots would only get 1/2 point if no one is on the pedestal at the end. As I understand it, it's NOT the goal to keep the pedestal (...) (22 years ago, 2-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | | | I agree with Dave...Let's keep it simple. Will we determine the overall winner by total accumulated points, or, will it be based on the number of games won? Bruce (22 years ago, 3-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | Didn't we decide at the post-event dinner that the box in the middle would be turned 45 degrees? ie, a line drawn perpendicular to the sides of the pedestal should pass through the corners of the playfield.

| | | | | | Um, Trevyn, I hate to rain on your parade, and all, but there are ~3.28 feet in a meter. That might throw off your calculations a bit. Well, truth be told, it did. The reference you gave states on page 42 that 1ft = 3.048 E-01 m That is, there are (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
