*sigh* :P

I've signed all mine up now, but might have to do some reshuffling on the day; Flail Whale's signed up as TBA as i didn't have a name at the time, and Smidge has been clustered with Chocolate bot instead of Lionel as Lionel was already signed up... Though I may leave it as it is as Chocolate Bot has a habit for throwing itself out the arena :roll:

I'm unfortunately going to have to withdraw Anti-Gravity, it's in the most horrible state I've ever seen a robot and needs every single component replaced (not an exaggeration), something that just cannot be done in time. I'll still be there with RPM, but no ant :( . I have a crazy 6 motor 6WD ant designed and ready to be 3D printed, but I suppose I'll just have to wait until the next AWS. I'm open to driving anything spare like cluster botlets if anyone is in need!

Have to say, the current list of bots signed up is pretty impressive; over 100 by my count. Hope we manage it all in time!

Rory, I've kept track of your constant changing line up and my sheet currently has you with Lionel, Flail Whale, BullyDozer and Chocolate Bot - Smidge, though if you want to move Smidge back to Lionel just let me know.

Hehe, yeah sorry; robots kept sprouting up all over the place at the last minute :roll: That setup is fine, I don't plan to change it unless something terminally breaks etc...

I'm afraid not Alasdair, there is no internet connection in there and doing it via 3G or some such would not generate a good speed link.

Shame you aren't able to come, I hope to see you at another event soon. :).

Its just gone 2am on Friday morning and me and Gemma are setting off for our flight over soon. Yup, we are pretty dedicated to these AWSs!
Current sign up sheet says 81 antweights and 14 fleaweights so if y'all could turn up and not pull out and turn up on time then that'll make my draw much easier!
Have good travelles all and we'll see you tomorrow :D

Hey guys,
Apologies but I won't be able to make it tomorrow, I'm having an insanely busy week and various clashy things happen to me :(
Hope it's a good one though, sounds like it'll be a cracker :)
