Thanks to all organisers, Sarah, Dave, everyone else for helping etc. It was brilliant.

I love the venue, it's an amazing place and not even that far away.

Congratulations to anyone who got an award (e.g. Anticide). It did seem to me that the ratio of spinners was higher today, but perhaps that's just the luck of the draw. I got home late and with heavily damaged robots, but it was still good fun!

Thanks to Dave and Sarah and all who helped to make the event run so smoothly it was a great celebration of 20 years of Antweights. As others have said one of the best venues we have been able to use and also the nearest to my home for many years.

Many thanks to Sarah, Dave & everyone else for what was a great event.

Would also like to give shout outs to the teams who made the top 16 for what were some spectacular fights in the final rounds, as well as for managing to get your bots repaired time & time again.

Thank you so much to Dave, Sarah and everyone else who was involved in organising AWS 60. Despite returning home with two smashed bots and no wins I still had a blast. Can't wait for the next one!
