Hi

Can I ask a question about the 3+1 rule.
My interperitation of the rule was that you were allowed 4 robots and atleast one of them must be a walker. But now people are saying you are allowed 3rollers and 1walker. I see a difference here in that if say team Fluffy reformed he has around 3walkers and 1roller so would he be allowed to only enter two bots i.e. 1 Roller and 1 Walker or is it a case of "Your allowed up to 4 walkers".

Can someone on the comittee please clarify this?

Regards
Ian

I'm not a comittee member, but the way I see it, you can enter more than one walker, but not all 4 robots can be same drive type (ie u can't have 4 rollers or 4 walkers). So u could enter 3 walkers and one roller... (or two of each). That's just the way I see it anyway.

You're allowed 4 walkers, theres nout wrong with that. You're allowed 4 robots if AT LEAST one is a walker. So between 1 and 4 walkers.

Hi there,

I've been offered to drive Team Bovik's ants again at AWS 19.

Would it be OK if I drove them myself this time? The last time I got my other team mates to drive them, but the Bovik robots didn't do very well, possibly as a result.

The rules seem to have got rather muddied on this point recently, if I drive team Bovik's three robots myself, and possibly two of my own robots, will I be in breach of any law or convention?

Simon
