I'm unlikely to come, cos I work weekends and it took me 3 months just to get the AWS off, but it sounds good. Would people be allowed to form their own teams, or would it be randomly allocated? Random seems both more fair and more fun IMO. You'd hate to have all the best robots ganging up on one team.

With the HW version, people took it in turns to pick a team mate, but I don't mind doing a random draw, each team captian (who will put themselves forward on this thread) draws a robot from the hat.

with the nature of the sport (and the people) i don't think it would end up being unfair if teams were picked

I wouldn't mind being a team captain, if you're looking for volunteers.

Ok, well tell me here, do you want it random drawing or do you want it so you pick your own ? I think 27th seems to be the best time to do this.

Ok, so we have TEAM CAPTIANS Henry and Joey, 2 more needed (not me, been one already, can't be bothered again). You can pick a colour for your team and each robot in the team must wear a patch/stripe/body panel that colour. Cabrakan had the middle panel painted blue, Saint had his weapons painted blue, Bullfrog just had blue tape :P and Merlin and Kronic were already blue.

Yeah Basically, or whatever you choose as a team colour.
