Could you not just record the finals & play them back at the end of the show?

It's supposed to be a live stream Ceri, that's the point, they see and hear it as it happens (you up for commentary duty again?
).
I also agree with Dave, mixing the rounds is just going to be confusing (plus when I suggested it before it got slammed down), so I think it better to keep a more traditional running order.

Ok, point taken. It was just an idea
. We'll be sticking to a traditional running order then, and I'll probably be asking someone else to run the nanos during the early rounds of the AWS.

I'll be at this one with 2 hopefully competitive ants but nothing spectacular. After missing AWS 44 and having to put my robots to one side for a while, I'm just going to enjoy being at a robot event again and have plenty of time to poke around

Also, let me know if there's anyway I can help out.
Keeping an eye on what's required to run something like this.

Dave, please tell me you didn't do what you said you were gonna do and enter 4 spinny things... you wouldn't want poor old transit ant to get all munched up at his first event would you?

Unfortunately, due to Hobbyking being awful to me, there is only Dibby that will spin this time. Jonathan, might have a spare robot if you fancy?

Surely you can throw a spinner together with an old brushed motor or something Dave?

I could build something that is technically classed at a "spinner", however I do also like to win the occasional fight too...
