too bad you guys don't do sumo. At the Brickfest Sumo, the first place prize
was a 1.0 RCX with power suppily, and a Spybot.
I have a suggestion that may clear up a couple things. (and I know how much you
guys love to hear from me)
Maybe this rule (which some idots suggest only refers to AC power)
"External power is not allowed due to the nature of the game-the cable harness
will end up tangling other robots. "
could be replaced with something that doesn't say "External Power" is not
allowed, but says that "cables that can tangle other robots" are not allowed.
This rule seems like an unnessary limitation. But reason for it is very valid.
