tournament will resume tonight at 7:00 PM. I have also moved my tournament's

| 1/16/08 | I actually discovered this earlier but I have
discovered that Battlebots.com has been HACKED. http://www.battlebots.com/meet_the_robots3/meet_search.asp?p=6 (Click on a weight class then any one of the Battlebots listed and finally visit its matches and videos by clicking "Matches and Videos".) |
| 12/22/07 | Found more matches and from what looks to
be Season 1.0. http://www.youtube.com/user/Battlebotvideos |
| 11/29/07 |
I apologize for the lack of matches. Due to the fact that I have a bowling tournament on Friday nights,
which ends after I would normally add matches, I may just
wait until this tournament ends before adding matches. In other news, I
found a Season 1.0 match. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqHGfxoMCsg |

which has ALL of the matches. http://rfshq.com/-/BattleBots |
