I prefer the Glasgow system where you glass the cunt.

Tactics like this are why playing OTB is more intense.

And you’re not even thinking about the endgame when you’re supposed to shake hands after the match.

Video from July 2022 (Piped)

Looks like a deadman switch would’ve fixed it - place both hands on two buttons below the table; release either/both buttons and robot automatically halts wherever it is.

Who could have seen that coming? /s

An industrial grade robot is no joke. I hope whoever set up that robot got sued.

You either need a weak enough robot that it can't really harm you, or you need several measures to prevent exactly this from happening. Either make all the joints compliant or set up PSD's/invisible fences to prevent the robot from operating when hands are near the boards.
