Steve Merill has recently passed away
« on: July 26, 2011, 06:35:11 PM »

According to Robot Wars Wiki and Headbanger142 of Youtube, he has recently passed away due to cancer. He was the Sir Chromalot captain for those who don't remember him. He always made me laugh, perhaps more than the Plunderbird boys.
RIP mate.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Its such a shame when someone involved in robotics sadly passes away. Especially one of the greatest characters in Robot Wars.
Makes me remember what a shame and how upset our small community got upon hearing the bad news regarding Tanja.

Such a shame

Tanja Smith who (I think) was a member of Team Pillow Torque, and sadly died at a very young age.

Tanja was a girl on Team Pillow Torque who was killed in a tragic car accident. It was a horrible thing to happen considering we'd seen and spoke to her just a few months beforehand.  As a result we now hold the Tanja memorial competition every year in memory of her, in which all under-16's at the event take part in.
