heheh, looks like a very fun contest! We’ve got a couple questions though:

A judge will tell each contestant where to place his robot. At a signal from
the judge, the contestant will start the robot. The robot will have three
minutes to find as many eggs as possible, and drop them over the edges of the
arena.
|
Will the placement be absolute digression of the judge? Will it be at right
angles to the wall, or facing any direction?
Also, would a contestant be allowed to code his/her robot between seeing the
arena and starting to compete?

The Arena:
The arena will be a flat, smooth 4-foot by 8-foot sheet of some material yet
to be chosen (probably a sheet of plastic, or plywood). It will have
transparent plastic edges around the sides that are at least 1” high, and at
most 2” high. The edges will be less than 1/4” thick.
Sitting on the arena will be two or three LEGO buildings. These will be taped
down, so they don’t move. They will be at least 16” away from the walls, and
each other. They will have an overhanging roof, and possibly a narrow
baseplate edge around the bottom.
|
Can we get more info on the sides? Will it change from 1-2” over the
circumference or will it be fixed? (If so, when can we know?)
Will houses be right angles with the sides? Will they be guaranteed a certain
height or width?
many thanks,
--Peter
