I'm afraid I won't be able to commit to this one just yet. Firstly because I need check transport arrangements and secondly because Antisocial is currently in pieces awaiting a titanium clad rebuild.

Right, well, a couple of things for those who are coming:

Firstly, am I right in thinking Pete's providing the arena? Once thats confirmed I need not worry about it anymore.

Also, if there are so few ants, would people prefer to use Pete's double elimination system, like at the last event, or a league system, sometimes used at RRC's?
The league system would probably mean at least three fights per robot, and would make the whole thing last a more respectable length, but does start to fall down if people pull out or break (or if you have Katjushca in your original group).
Let me know your thoughts.

I will be bringing my new arena and am happy with either league or double elimination.

Any time up until the friday night would be fine for enteries. I take it from the lack of response that people dont need any more details?

Entries sent. I am not 100% if perminant will make it in time ( :-? ), but I've entered him anyway. E.B.O.G 1.1 (E.B.O.G 5 according to my brother) is a definate.

Anyone coming in on the train, its best to get a taxi to the venue from the station. There's a taxi rank just outside Hull station. It's not too far away, just a bit complicated, and I don't know what busses are like since I dont live there anymore. It wont be too expensive, promise.
