Fighting Robots return to San Francisco!
Join us Saturday and Sunday, November 12-13th for The ComBots Cup and Robot Fighting League's 2005 National Championships! See the metallic stars of TV gather to fight it out to decide who's the champion - in robot weight classes up to 340 pounds. Thrill to the spectacle as robots fight only a few feet away from the bleachers!
The heavyweight combots cup competitors will be fighting for a $10,000 prize!

I know there are a few of you that dislike combat robotics, think it degrades the sport etc...
I would just like to make a simple request. Keep an open mind. What you saw on TV pales in comparison to what it's like to be in the stands. I've been to a few competitions and I have seen the differences up close.
If there are any fans of the Heavyweight bot Biohazard, Carlo is bringing it out of retirement to fight for the $10,000 prize.
I'll be going, along with as many members of Team 675 as I can get down there.
Please keep the combat bot hate out of this thread. I'm just letting fellow roboteers know about the biggest combat event of the year.

I've always responded to the cries of, "robot!" with, "person!" I always get startled looks. It's fun. - Rich Kressly [more]
