Hm... very restrictive this month... could be interesting to see what results come out of it. I might even enter...

Now this is a challenge. =] I really like the restricting components idea.

I thought the pony thing was real, this was gonna be my entry:

Dino, your so funny.

Still...
Despite the fact I don't use DSL, the rules for this month's competition seem interesting, as they are rather restrictive.

Also, I get the feeling people will mount the [other weapon] off the hammer, and claim it as being 2-in-1.

The no tri-bars rule is random, but seems like it should be a good one.

Not unless they want to be DQ'ed ......that would just be adding weapons to the hammer and not meeting the rules!

Stupid Question Time ^TM

Is the "hammer" hammer component such as the sledge hammer or is it a hammer type robot?

I did have a bot to enter but my DSL-TC crashed so I'm still trying to figure out how to get it working again...

Philippa · « **Reply #14 on:** August 05, 2011, 02:39:57 PM »

I bet that no-one is gonna have one that's similar to mine.

Can't tell if there's sarcasm there...

Monk? I'm not a monk. I'm not even religious. ;-)

NFX · « **Reply #19 on:** August 05, 2011, 03:02:09 PM »

You're not supposed to tell people that you've entered either. We all got a right verbal spanking from ACAMS a couple of months ago for doing that.
