Yes it is definitely Saturday.
Last year we did a non-spinner warm up, main event, annihilator, tag team (I think), football, 'grudge' matches, possibly more I'm not sure.
this year I want to try Ant Bulldog and hopefully a high speed filming one (the cameras are proper high speed ones - IDT Vision NX5).
You can turn up at any time and join in the games but obviously not if its half way through a particular one like main event etc.

Thanks very much for your reply!

I was wondering if this would be a standard AWS team (3 rollers, 1 walker/cluster) event or one where yo could bring 4 rollers like the Antweight Open. Just curious as i have a number of quirky rollers that I can't cluster due to their weight but at the same time can't justify entering if I actually want to win a fight.

Thanks again!

i don't mind either way. even if we can enter four rollers i'd still like to test out my new clusterbot so it wouldn't effect my team.

I will bring an open top arena and put it at the back somewhere as another area to test etc.
We had grudge matches last year which gives people the chance to have a non-critical fight with whatever they want.
I`ve booked the room until 6.30pm but it will need to be cleared by then so still plenty of time.

If it's OK with John I'll bring along my other 2 arenas besides the football one (raceway and Gaultlet) if anyone fancies a go.

Sounds great! I have a robot specifically built for obstacle courses just in case there was one.
