Welcome to NHRL!

Event Day is crazy but this page should help guide you around. Here is some important information for you;

There are a lot of big things going on behind the scenes here at NHRL, and we'll soon have some exciting things to share about the upcoming season. If you want to be one of the first to hear about these exciting developments, sign up for our mailing list!

Friday

The goal of the pre day is to give you time to work on your robot and potentially pass safety ahead of the event. The pits are open. Much of the staff will be getting ready for the broadcast. You will have full access to all the tools and resources we have at our facility. Since we will still be getting ready for the broadcast all the broadcast spaces will be off limits until the day of the event.

  • If you need help with anything reach out on the #tech-support-general discord channel, or find a staff member
  • You are welcome to use any of the test boxes to test your robot.
  • The photo booth won't be ready until the day of the event. Feel free to take pictures for your own use though!
  • Take some time to explore the building, make sure you know where everything is.

Saturday

Welcome to the event! Below are some helpful links for navigating the event. If you have any questions or issues, please find a staff member.

Things to do, in order of importance:

  • Pass a safety check
  • Click this link Find your robot. Click its name, and update your bots picture.
  • Ensure your robot is ready. Robots that are not ready may forfeit their matches
    • Keep track of when your next fight is, we are running in bracket order.
  • Join the Discord
  • Create a wiki page for your bot

Doors open at 8am. The all-drivers meeting is at 9:30, by then you should be arrived and through safety, or about to do safety! Fights start at 10am.

Food trucks will be arriving at 11am, and will stay until 4pm. They may sell out early! If they do, we suggest having food delivered. The delivery address is 165 Water St, and the front desk staffer can receive the food on your behalf.

Raffles and Prizes - We have a few additional prizes and raffles at this event. If you want to enter a random 3lb grudge match for a chance to win cash and a SendCutSend gift card, drop the green ticket from your info packet into the bowl at the front of the pit labeled "Grudge Matches". If you want to vote for the coolest looking bot, write its name on the back of your red ticket and put it in the "coolest bot" bowl.
