No, on the street corner by the locks. I'm pretty sure there's only about two of them. 
I'll try and take a look. SM I'll be round with your nunchuck v. soon.
OK

Getting ready to go to Scotland on Friday (Holiday v.2)
Awesome, which part of Scotland?
Fort William
I've been there a couple of times. There's some pretty interesting Locks in the river running through it, and an excellent cafe near it that I can't remember the name of. I think it's on a street corner.
Well that's helpful, I'll look on all the street corners.

Could this be... the first ever time a wedgeless rammer has beaten a popup? I can't think of any other rammers that have beat popups in official tournament matches. It's practically a given that popups always beat rammers.
RA2 history in the making!
Also...
This is getting ridiculous now...

I just put as many weapons as I could on a bot. Then remembered Dark July...
Still, my 528kg of weapons should counter the HSs and Rammers.
But I will lose due to wheel loss.

I assume you can just edit the mass in the .txt file for it.
EDIT: Yeah, find ExtenderS_c_R_120.txt in the styles folder of components. Then change to mass=6.

Chinese Whispers 3: Lightweights
The same as CW1 and 2 but using smaller teams of 3 people and moving into the lightweight class.
24 entrants, so 8 bots.
Yeah, so this would use an innovative bracket system that creates a 1-8 finishing list (although may not 100% reflect the exact order of bot quality). Basically the winners bracket goes ahead but after each round the losers go into their own losers bracket, the losers bracket also has its own losers brackets!
So for example, round 1: A beats B, C beats D, E beats F and G beats H
round 2: A beats C, E beats G B beats D, F beats H
Round 3: A beats E C beats G B beats F D beats H
Final result: Winner: A E C G B F D H :Last
OK, I made a diagram...:
OR
DSL LW Replica Wars arena skinned Up to 32 bots. Single elimination, alternative choice brackets (I'll explain later) Entrants choose a DSL replica of a real life bot and then make a replica using ONLY the parts found in that replica and only up to 3 times the amount of them. e.g. use of BOB only allows 3 flamethrowers. Multi extenders, ant batteries and any CB may also be used. Standard 1 on 1 best of 3 matches. Alternative choice brackets: Each entrant ranks the other competitors in order of how much they would like to face them. I use this information to rank the bots. The lowest ranked bot gets its first choice of opponent, the next lowest gets its first possible choice in its list. etc. etc.... This gives more evenly matched battles. SIGNUPS WILL BE POSTED ON FRIDAY

$100+ Price drop is worth waiting less then a week for..
I tried to buy more games though.. I went up to the counter and more then half of them they didnt have the discs for 
(not sure if they do it over there but here they put the cases on the shelves and the discs are locked away behind the service desk)
So I just left it since I needed to buy that amount to get some of them free with the deal..
Yeah, I got my PS3 for free with my TV. Well the TV was £500 reduced, you could get a PS3 with the TV for just £100. So I got a TV with £400 off and a PS3 for free!

Well, it can still move about, just it can't do as much damage.

New bot, Blood Star:  Plastic 5, NPCF drive, 2 ants. It's a circular free-spinning wammer. Design is to counter IRL spinners by using their kinetic energy to power its own disc whilst also dissipating the force. It also provides all-round chassis protection that most rammers lack.

Right hand: Futuristic laser gun
Left hand: GIANT cup of tea
Fixed.
Unless that's a bowl of porridge.
No, looks about right for a cup really.
