No promises but the ways things are going i think reaper will be there
EDIT: AHHHHH CRAP I HAVE A FISHING\DRINKIN TRIP ON THE 24TH!!!! FOR A FEW DAYS!!!.
Hmm if reaper is done then i may compete instead of the trip. Been so long since i have competed i think id rather come along but not sure yet as the last trip was awsome "at least i think it was " _________________ Tim Team Reaper.

Wont worry us, weve got rat, skelly, badger,frag and the banes to play with for a state event so it we don’t have to rush to re build any of the Battelshed expeditionary force. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.

Forgot o mention, this will be covered by the team at triple J's Hack program.
I big turnout would be great, even if you havnt got a working bot, they said they wanted to talk/interview to anyone who is involved in the sport.

So this is combat robots on the radio?
Not sure how that’s going to work, going to depend a lot on the commentary team. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.

It’s a radio documentary show. Check it out at 530pm on triple J
I guess it will play out like any other radio documentary; they will only be able to describe so much to the listeners. The rest will be up to us to describe the sport.
Fear not my friend, it’s all for the greater good of Robot Fighting. _________________ Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
