Invicta_Toon 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Can imagine his flat mate waking up on the sofa at 3 am half-cut, getting leg humped off his lego robot pugilist. Vic sat in the other chair grinning. Pants round ankles. I can think of better uses for my imagination tbh. seriously though Vic, it's akin to saying that I just won a Stickle brick competition... ffs I'm trying to see how that's the same, but I can't tbh and what's with all the wierdo's on here who like making up robot fantasies? you're right of course one is bits of interlocking plastic that you construct things with..... and the other is entirely different so basically you don't know what you're on about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't expect a wannabe English teacher to comprehend the difference though tbf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Patrokles Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Out of interest, do you know that your robot ran for 20 minutes by itself, after the BATTLE WAS WON, because you sat and watched it. For 20 minutes. Doing nothing. For 20 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't expect a wannabe English teacher to comprehend the difference though tbf It was difficult for me to realise that this was work for you due simply to the incredible- some would say 'primary school-like'- pleasure you seemed to derive from winning this mightiest of bouts. To answer your question, the vast majority of C programmers I knew of were all in their teens. Not primary school maybe, but generally of pubescent age. Most of them were pretty good because they didn't have any friends and sat alone in their bedrooms all day, doing things like testing their skillz against chinese opponents.

For 20 minutes. Doing nothing. For 20 minutes? I went for a piss actually, 20 minutes is a total guess, I was doing other things for some of the time. It was what we call in the trade an endurance test. You don't tend to hang around watching it, you wait for it to report an error or for it to fall apart / explode it wasn't a battle per se, it's actually exploration / navigation and obstacle avoidance task, but in the arena, mine went about the task properly, whereas the chinese bloke put his in with mine, and twice it fucked up when encountering my robot and yes, I took a primary school like pleasure out of it, because I'm not a dour boring humourless twat, and it was FUN <- spelt that way if you're off to find a dictionary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11079 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 so basically you don't know what you're on about Lego is interlocking bits of plastic... stickle bricks are interlocking bits of plastic. You're right of course Vic, I'm entirely un-schooled in the art of plastic blocks and how their interlocking joy can transfer to far more noble arts. Oh hangong, you attach a computer.... Wow.... that's... "cool" I understand now, your plastic robot-thing beat another plastic robot thing. I see how much of an impact you've made on society... i.e. you've kept yourself out of it. congrats I hope you and all your tech-nerds celebrate into the night, all passing around a bottle of cheap wine... wanting to get pissed, but not wanting to sully yourself with the same drinks the chavs enjoy. I'm a geek, I like comics, I like movies and I like music... but Siva on a skateboard... I'm not a nerd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to hear a secret? I had a modicum of respect for the robot cognoscenti who take part in "robot Wars" because they at least made their toys from "grown up" materials. You play with Lego.

I've had a great day doing a serious bit of academic study (see above posts, it's not actually my hobby but part of my degree), but if fun gets on your tits that much, then ok, I HAD GREAT FUN PLAYING WITH LEGO TODAY.
