Brickworld 2010 Mindstorms competitions

Hello all LEGO Mindstorms robotics lovers,

Brickworld 2010 is coming up very soon, and the competition rules have been
posted to the Brickworld website (www.brickworld.us)  Look for the event rules
under the Challenges tab under Event Info.  We will be running 4
Mindstorm-specific events at Brickworld.  

On Thursday, we will be holding a BOTS (Build On The Spot) challenge.  We'll get
the challenge Thursday, be given some time to build, program, and practice, then
we'll compete.  We did this for the first time last year, and it was a lot of
fun.  So remember to bring some loose Mindstorms components with you to
Brickworld so you can take part.

Friday we'll be playing Robot Basketball.  The rules are on the website.

Saturday we'll be competing in the robot portion of the 2009 FIRST LEGO League
Smart Move challenge.  We'll be following all the standard FLL rules &
regulations and using the same scoring system & time limit.

Sunday is Robot Jousting day.  Again, the rules are posted on the Brickworld
website.

I'll try my best to remember to look in here every once in a while to answer any
questions anybody has.

I look forward to seeing all of you at Brickworld :)

John
