Conquering Clown 2 - Veteran or Newcomer
This is bugging me a bit. Under our current "rulings", which state that a robot is considered a newcomer if it has not appeared in the previous national championship (where applicable) even if it has appeared in another event (like the Extreme series) beforehand, Conquering Clown 2 should be classed as a newcomer, since it did not actually compete in the previous US championship (much like Dominator 2 is considered a newcomer to Series 4 as it was only in the Series 3 Pinball, or Fluffy considered a Series 5 newcomer despite being in Extreme prior). Unlike all these examples, however, Conquering Clown was meant to be in the US championship, but was forced to withdraw. So, do we still consider that as not entering, and have it classed as a newcomer? Or what? CrashBash (talk) 16:40, July 8, 2013 (UTC)
