Failed to get into PiWars 2024, guess there's lots of strong advanced entries, but we've been put on the reserve list which will be a bit odd. If we were a school team it would be easier as it would be a project, but creating a blog and video for a competition you probably won't be in will be a bit different.
Anyway, we may continue for a while.
Three of us met to discuss Sidmouth Science week and inevitably we started discussing PiWars. Much fun was had experimenting with arms for sorting toxic waste barrels and a Nerf gun for shooting Zombies. Despite not getting in, we're already doing well at having solutions to the challenges and even measured out an area of kitchen for a test arena, though we have to move the table and chairs out first!
An analysis of the challenges has already been done, so they'll be written up over the next few days and published in the hope they're useful to everyone else.
