I'll get a comment added with timelinks to all the fights when I get a minute.

Looking good, the new wedges are huge for 50g! Great to see don't hug me return, have you sorted the self destruction issues?

With regards to numbers you've got 30 teams signed up, so that should be up to 60 roboteers, going by previous events (not sure if that's good or bad, but thought it might help as you've not been to an aws before)

If it would help out I am happy to do pat testing on any power supplies at the event.

I'll bring my cube along, so it'll be available if needed.

Are there any arrangements for spectators? My brother's local and wanted to pop in and take a look.

That's a nice looking ant, I really like the combination of the 3d printed chassis and the forged scoop. Will we be seeing it at the aws next week?

There are no particular rules regarding armour, you can use whatever you like, the most common choice is polycarbonate, which provides a good balance between protection and weight. A link to the rules are at the top of this forum.

That's really unfortunate about the hidden charges, and very generous of you to pick up the tab. I'll definitely be contributing over the minimum, it's far less than the cost of building a bot, and without people running events the robots aren't much use.

I'll also add my thanks for your work getting it back online, and for hosting this community, the world of antweights owes you a lot!
