Then you might be in trouble. And it wont hurt if you put a different name on it

Ian you can't just go round deciding who can do what. If Henning has been using the name for some time I can understand why he would not want to change and unless he is considering entering the world series I dont see any real problem. There must be many duplicated robot names throughout the world. Can we not try being a bit more freindly and tolorent after all we do share the same hobby. This is just the type of thing I was saying about in the world series committee thread about people who decide things on their own and then state them as if they are facts causing resentment among the other roboteers.

actually if he enters a robot in UK called War Ant and Ben Does I'll make down as UK and dutch
beleive it or not but at RW qualifiers there was a robot called Tanto and 3 tables down there I was with Tanto so robot wars allow it
we just get possed off if ppl nick our names I surely did
luckly it got wrecked and retired there and then so now I'm the only Tanto
he can't have Tanto either thats mine

Hi there,

I just wanted to let you know how much fun I'm having building our new robot, Dynamo. Gone is the auto-flipper idea. I got sick of breaking servos trying to get it to work.

Anyway, if you want a sneak peek at the prototype, here it is. http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b3 ... 0000000610 The final version will have four wheels!
