Team DisConstructor will be attending with Little Doris and ANTi Matter. More robots may be on the way. Just one question. We have made ANTi Matter to the 4.1 version of the rules where you are allowed to use a continuous piece of metal for armour but the rules that are being used are version 3. Are we allowed to keep our robot as it is or will we have to change it? could you let us know? thanks.

What's this about version 3 rules?

I am pretty sure my ants are fine under it but it seems odd.

It says on the sign up list that the rules being used are version 3.

we'd prefer version 4 as we don't want to cut the robot in half and stick it back together somehow

The problem is just a bad link on the "List of Entries" page. I will inform PeteC so it gets fixed in due course.

Meanwhile, the AWS is run to the current rules, as posted on Robotwars101 http://robotwars101.org/ants/rules.htm and Antweight.co.uk http://www.antweight.co.uk/rules.htm (Both currently version 4.1)

Haha, our little website is full of little things like that. But we always run events to the latest set of rules, so you'll be fine.

I'm glad you guys are coming, I've wanted to meet you for a while now. :)

The link has been corrected on the show_entries page - sorry, I'd forgotten it was even on that page! :roll:
