Rule set This event will comply with the 2010 RFL Extensible Technical Regulations. This rule set has been adapted for this competition per RFL guide lines. Read rules completely before registering a robot. |
Tournament Structure For weight classes with 6
or less robots we will fight a full round robin. Classes with 7
or more robots we will fight a modified double elimination. Due
to time constraints, the final round will be single elimination; if the
winner's bracket finalist is beat by the looser's bracket finalist
there will not be a rematch. Currently it is expected that Ants and
Beetles will exceed 8 bots. Fleas will most likely will be much
smaller and fight round robin.
Rumbles and grudge matches will be held if there is sufficient interest. Builderes who's robots have been eliminated are encouraged to stay for rumbles. |

concessions stand that sells hotdogs, chips, and soda. There are
