Must be summat in the air! I've also had to put a lot of bot plans on the backburner due to needing to move house. Unfortunately, we're in the searching phase, and every weekend is vital, so I don't think I'm gonna make it. :(

I suppose in the great scheme of things, a house is more important, but.. but.. ROBOTS!!!!!! :o

Teams, this is your 2 week warning.

Please ensure you are registered on Antlog by the end on the day on 26/06.

It makes my life considerably easier if you register, then drop out, than fail to register and need registration on the day.

Thank you all in advance for your assistance with this.

Already looks like it's going to be a good one!

i'd forgotten i'd registered! :roll:
hopefully i can convince the wife to let me escape, but if I have to drop out, should i remove my bots from antlog?

edit: can't make it, so bots removed. :(

If you know in advance, please do deregister.

If not, not a major issue.

Ive just about finished prepping my team. I only had time to build three antweights and thunderstrike is still damaged from the last event I went to. Due to this, for the first time, fleadom fighter will be making a solo appearance in the main AWS.

Team Hectic.

Right - OK, I know you all love my events.... but this is getting silly. We've got 106 robots entered out of a maximum of 128 (maximum supported by Antlog). While I recognise that there will, inevitably, be some on-the-day drop-outs, I'd ask people to please be considerate with their entries.

If we actually find we've got more than 128 robots on the day, we will start by asking all teams with 4 robots to retire 1 robot of the set.

These numbers do, also, mean that we must start promptly. I will post full timings etc in a couple of days, but expect doors to be open from ~0830.

Wow that's a lot of antweights!

Don't panic though Chris, I'm sure it should be manageable. We had 104 at AWS57 and that finished with over an hour to spare, even with a lunch break. The key was definitely getting started early.

Oh, I know it's manageable - it's just going to require some coordination!
