that sucks Nick, hope you can fix things up!
Slave isnt ready. I havent had time to look at it at all since the last event, been too busy with the MR2 unfortunately.
Judging from what Bort was saying, i think he's planning to be ready for the event, but ill let him confirm that.
I will be there to spectate anyways

may i propose even tho is is lame notice it be pushed back a week if possible, i can have rapture prob done but it will be very rushed and no testing time and late nights all round basically plus nicks working plus jaemus isnt ready etc etc
if not its still cool but is just an idea _________________ Andrew Welch, Team Unconventional Robotics

indifferent myself. demon will probably not have a srimech by saturday at this rate. but if dylons already got it planned and what not then i guess it has to be. _________________ www.demon50s.com - Minimoto parts

For anyone checking the forums before the event. Beezelbot is assembled and ready to go. As usual no testing. Probably will flame itself some more.... who knows. We'll find out soon.

Make sure there are some videos, I really want to see those matches! Being stuck at work sucks, but the $50 and hour is going straight into bot parts

noice
yeah was a good event, rapture came second having a nice crack at demon before battery died (think it was only half charged entering the match).
was pleased with the robots potential, hit reasonably hard and minus a few issues ran well most of the day.
demon was reliable as anything, dylon snapped his only belt first match
angus's robot was not too bad, courtney had some minor issues with beelebot althout its looking nicer each even t and chris's robots ran well most of the day
will start gutting rapture and fix the minor issues and start a new robot also soon _________________ Andrew Welch, Team Unconventional Robotics

Yeah was a fun event, real shame about dylons belt taking the defending champ out in a very unspectacular way. Yamum took an insane amount of damage off demon and rapture turning it into a jagged nightmare, but with no way to fight back, it's obvious I need to get a weapon going for next time.
OH, and the final included the most tension, shouting and profanity I've heard for a very long time. _________________ ( •_•)
