...This sounds like a great format for the mindstorms event at the East Coast Brickfest...
well, at least something darn close to this :-) So anyone planning to attend, plan for
something close to this format.
...I think since most of us are fairly familiar with mindstorms, we should also add an
'unlimited' category where the contestant can enter a bot using any LEGO parts they have
(ie, not just restricted to the original mindstorms box). But no remotes! This should
create some interesting bots :-)
...And perhaps a special category for bots with more than one RCX unit.
