David: Thanks for organizing this event!
Everyone: I think this is going to be a really cool event and a great
opportunity to show the community and the LEGO store what we can do. The Easter
egg hunting robots is the right level of difficulty to make it both interesting
to build and fun for people to watch (and eat chocolate), with out being overly
challenging.
Warning: After you buy a bag of chocolate eggs, try to get your robot working
BEFORE you finish eating all the eggs. (I still have a few left so I think I
will be okay, as long as my robot doesn't fail because I didn't have enough eggs
to test it with. Hmmmm.... I wonder why my stomach feels funny.)
Seriously, these robots don't have to be super complicated. If you can figure
out a way to detect and find eggs, then fabulous. If not, driving around and
hoping that you have an egg in front of your robot should work just fine. All
you need to do then is figure out a way to get the eggs over the wall.
Built a robot or two! Lets have lots of robots for the meeting!
