Cheers Pete.

I have added a list to the website for ant weights.

http://www.robotslive.co.uk/herm_08_list.htm

We have the minimum to run ants now, show format still hasnt been sorted yet but you may have two fights that will be seen by the public in the show, you can also run the rest of your comp between shows, or while shows are on. We will try and sort out a trophy as well.

Hi Guys just to keep you guys updated.

We are still sorting the AV side of things, and are looking at different projectors instead of the one we currently have use of (we fear it may not be powerful enough).

Regardless of the AV, the ants will still run. You will be given a small area in the pits behind a screen (this is so no audiance can see, so we dont have hundreds of kids trying to get around an arena). There will be a small competition running for you guys, and one or two fights will be featured on the screen. This might not be a competition fight, We want to get ants back in the public domain so it might be worth hand picking a few robots for the featured fights. What are your ideas on this?

When your not fighting your welcome to watch the rest of the show from the pits or seating.

Please not also we can not pay for travel costs for Ants, sorry about this.

Any questions? Or any ideas or input you have for the show?

Cheers
Dave

Might have my featherweight running for this. So could knock up an ant or too as well.

Unfortunately I have 2 Demo events for Dutchrobotgames during that time, and they have to take priority so I can't make it I'm afraid.
Best regards,
