Best of luck everyone, hope tomorrow's a good one

Jigsaw isn't exactly working atm, it seems to be picking up a signal but the motors aren't responding at all...I'll bring the bits down to the event and see what can be done on the day. At least LYT is up and working

Thanks to all of Team Orr for another fun day.

Congrats to Andy for winning almost everything worth winning! Hope you have a trophy cabinet in your new home ?up north?

Nice to see some new faces (and robots) and some good fights.

Lots of rebuilding to be done before Reading...

Many thanks to the Orrs for a great event, I enjoyed myself more than I've ever done probably, despite being not that good

Well done Andy - a phrase which I think I may become intimately familiar with - and also to Jack and Dan and Peter and James and everyone else who gave him a good run for his money, especial thanks go to James for making me rebuild LYT better and stronger...I'll get Antipathy back someday, prepare to be aggressively nudged...

Was good to see everyone again, especially those who I'd not met before

I would also like to add my thanks to team Orr it was a great day.
Also to all the other roboteers for some for some really good fights which although very competitive were always carried out in a good friendly atmosphere.
I think I took more damage yesterday than any other time so lots to do before Reading as Gary said but that is half the excitment not knowing if your robot will get wrecked or not.

hey guys just want to thank you for a great day! we couldnt have done it without you!!!

thanks to:
.james amd gary, for all their work on the draw etc

.joey, for helping me fix valliant after that hit from mutant, turns out valliant had a common case of "i-have-been-wrecked-by-pete-wallers-spinners-erites" and the RX was bashed...however, it turns out he just nocked the crystel out a milimeter or so XD so i it juddered a bit, but i had no controll

.dan and chris (and tom), for being so helpfull in taking mythras after the event (however it is still part of team orr! dont worry guys

)

. jack evans, for doing so much to help get krazy train working, and random spinning of the wheels is good anough for me XD

.matt hunt, for letting me have a (totaly awsome) drive of hunter, i dont think that bin will ever be the same....

.as always, mr pete waller, who put on a great show with all of his robots, and was extreamily kind in letting me (and others) drive his robots

. andy hibbard, who, as always, won the combat events with his spectacular flipping skills, and has given me so much help on building my own pneumatic system

and everybody else for turning up, and making it a truely special day...roll on reading and the A.W.S!

thanks team orr for another great event.

there were some really close fights

I think me and andy set a record for the most times that same 2 robots fought eachother, antlifter and anticide fought 4 times.

Antipathy did well for its first attempt, I managed to beat joey and somehow break one of Pete W's robots :O but kwijibo damaged antipathy so I got my share of the damage

and need to rebuild it before the AWS

it was nice to see some new robots and new people getting into ants

well done andy for winning almost everything.
