Thanks everyone who came out! It was a fun event and we're already
talking about next year. You've still got plenty of time to build a bot
for Dragon*Con, Maker Faire, or Chattacon also.
The 12's and 30lb
bots certainly faced the challenge of the post apocalyptic landscape
that is the parking lot behind Freeside. Next year I expect to see some
bots with modifications to handle the uneven surfaces better. Wedges
built for a stage fight didn't fare too well against the cracked
pavement and potholes.
