heck for that matter I Still have that cool robot from r13.  again, some
slight code modifications and I can enter 2 robots.  I'm sure to win a
price then.  ya know - with the r13 robot, I could use that to CLIMB on
the opponent and just sit on him.  I'd win for sure.  I'd just have to
modify the code some more.  (sec)

10 ? "clr"
20 wait 500 // mandatory stupid 5 second pause rule
30 forward A     // 3 lines of code to get steve to shut up about the
aim robot away rule
35 backward  C
40 wait 75
50 forward A    // search code
55 forward C
60 if rotation is > 3 {wait 50 off A off C sound 6}  else {goto 10)

Several of those comments don't really make sense, unless you've been spending
time at http://www.24tooth.com

hmm.  you're jealous, aren't you.

Well, I'd love to see you enter your rtl 13 robot.  I think trying to stay on
the opponent robot would be pretty cool.

Of course, considering it wouldn't stay on a 2x2 ft square stationary box, I
find it really hard to believe you could make it stay on much smaller,
odd-shapped moving robot.

Well, I guess it did do the chicken dance on Wayne's robot for a few seconds...

Actually, I wanted to make a robot like that.  (one to climb on the opponent)
But I couldn't come up with a reliable way to make it work.  It would only work
as well as yours, and *I* don't think that's good enough.

I did end up with several interesting entries.  One is a spinning robot.  Well,
actually, it uses a couple Hailfire droid wheels (
http://www.peeron.com/pics/inv/custpics/x784.jpg ) that rotate around the entire
robot, but it's pretty cool.

And then there's Team Spybot.  A pair of robots that work together to find and
team-up on the opponent.

Overall, I have several 'fun' entries.

And like Dave said, after every event, I go home with ideas on how to do it
better next time...
