I'm looking at plane tickets. What time do we need to be there and what time does it finish? The BuildersDB says August 19 - 21, but the Big Boys Toys website says 20 - 21. There's only one flight per day direct from Gold Coast to Canberra and I want to see if it fits.

There's more information of the Big Boys Toys website:


quote:
The National Robowars Championship is headed to the nation's capital this year, with TWO HUGE NIGHTS of action-packed destruction!

Almost bought plane tickets before reading that. So is that Friday - Saturday night or Saturday - Sunday night? And how late is the finish?

As I said to Harley I would plan on friday afternoon/first thing sat morning. I would not expect to fly out afterwards on Sunday night but there is usually 6am flights.

As for exact times I still can't answer that question. Its a very chicken and egg problem. Number of robots will really determine that.
