this just came in from Steve, and seems like a good compromise...
other ideas floating about.
Over all, any time limit changes should only affect a small part of
programming. not a major redesign of your robot.

Chris,
Here's my thoughts.
One minute is not much time. If two evenly matched robots are in a
pushing contest, cutting the time to 60 seconds may cut out the best
part of the event.
How about this for a big last minute rule change:
If there is a no challenge for the top at 1 minute, it will end.
Otherwise, it will continue for a second minute.
If there is a no challenge for the top at 2 minutes, it will end.
Otherwise, it will continue for a third minute.
The match will end after 3 minutes.
That actually will eliminate the boaring quick robot plan...
I'm in favor or that.
I don't like the 1 minute thing, but I guess it's OK.
I built a second robot, yesterday. I'll have two this weekend.
Steve

| OK, it was a good weekend for me (robot building wise) for the first time ever i built a robot, THEN I built a "fake" test robot that is nothing more then 4 motors and 4 wheels and a bulldozer blade. designed to test the weak points of my robot.
