From the BEAM mailing list, we're happy to report that Tom Gray managed to win 1st at the NAIT robotics challenge in Edmonton!:

"Thanks again to all who endured my wails and made helpful suggestions earlier this year when I couldn't get my BS2 brained Sumovore to run. "

"Grant M. of Solarbotics finally traced the problem to a loose resistor lead. I got my bot going in time to enter the NAIT robotic challenge this morning, where it won first place."

"Thanks also to Craig Limber for strategy and programming tips; they paid off!"
