Re: Battlebots I.Q.- A serious threat to FIRST or a half thought up cheep copy?

it will definately not be a success here thats for sure. we have had "Robot Wars" for 7 or 8 years or so and it has moved from the bbc (Publicly funded broadcaster, biggest in uk) to channel 5, which is never watched because it has nothign good on. It was good for the first year or so but then it just died down after a few series. After about 3 years, one or 2 teams had unbeatable robots... was just no good. It was muich better when they did stuff like obstacle courses, and tasks a la First. As such First will survive and grow.We just have to spread the word and keep everyone interested.
