I'll try and make it to this one, I think, as long as the wife doesn't veto it. I think she'll be glad to be rid of me and the boy for a day. :roll:

Just need to think of a team name.. oooh, and finish a robot!

With a little over two months to go - time to start getting those sign-ups in at http://antlog.garya.org.uk/event/10

I'll be putting sorting the final touches to my arena at the end of May, although expect to see some progress on the internal parts over the next 2-3 weeks. Currently I have a nice 1.5m x 1.5m x ~80cm polycarb box - so the expensive bit is done!

The venue is fully signed off and ready to go - I have a couple of bits of work to do in regards to making sure people all have power, etc which will again happen by end of May.

There's also a couple of other exciting bits of development going on behind the scenes and I'll tell you more about those when I'm 100% happy with them.

I'm having difficulty signing up; every time I try to fill in the "New Team" form it doesn't like what I put in the Captcha box, and says "The verification code is incorrect".

We're investigating reports of Antlog not accepting new sign-ups or allowing existing teams to sign up (or if it does, fails to actually save the sign ups).

I've emailed Gary and hope to provide an update soon.

6 weeks to go!

I know many of you already have done so, but a reminder that if you have not already done so to get your entrants logged on Antlog at http://antlog.garya.org.uk/event/10 - It's already looking busy and I need to ensure that we have enough space to safely accommodate all the teams.

Next weekend I will be working on finishing off the arena and I have a final prep meeting with the venue - I will provide further information once next weekend has happened.

I can't sign up because it constantly tells me the captcha is incorrect.

Impossible to sign up new team.
