Title: Chaos Corps - BattleBots Season 2
Post by: MikeNCR on March 02, 2016, 08:19:17 PM
You may have noticed I've been a bit quiet lately. That's because Near Chaos Robotics has joined up with several other southeastern builders to form a team that will be competing at BattleBots Season 2.

We'll be doing a series of meet the team posts on the Facebook page in the coming weeks. There are 10 of us, so it's probably the cleanest way to introduce everyone.

Nice work on developing a theme with these videos.

When does the fighting start?  It was sometime in mid-April I thought... I hope Bombshell is ready in time!  (And you don't draw Megabyte or Tombstone in round 1.)

If the info I've learned is right, fights should be starting on or around the 20th of April with other things happening between the 15th and 19th (as per Ray Billings; possibly a test fight or two to make sure the arena is in proper order and various behind the scenes work like safety testing the robots and other things).

As for Bombshell, it's been crated up and getting shipped across country as of the 5th of April (as per their Facebook page), so the robot should be ready to go once the fighting begins.

Mike, best of luck to you this season, and I hope that we get to see you on ABC more than once this year.

It starts late next week I think.
