Question What's your team motto?

I was just wondering, what's your team motto, and how did you come up with it? Team 1094's motto is "Feed The Fish" and we got the idea because our team name is Channel cats and were fish.

Re: What's your team motto?

It used to be "The future is for those who prepare for it today." but now it's "We build people, not robots."

Re: What's your team motto?

"Turning Idea's, Into Reality"

I may be wrong by the source, but as far as I know my brother came up with it. He started FIRST in 2005, and has now gone to the University of Waterloo to pursue Mechanical Engineering. I believe it came about during the teams last VEX Build. They spent countless hours in our family basement building the VEX bot for that year (not sure the year but it had something to do with Soft balls?). He made a sketch of that robot and there is now a picture, that is half an actual picture and the other half is the Sketch. Simulating the idea that and Idea was turned Into reality. The caption of this picture is "Turning Idea's, Into Reality".

Re: What's your team motto?

I don't think 2815 has had a motto listed in the FIRST system for a couple of seasons, but over the season we more or less latched on to the phrase "Win Anyway", cribbed from USC's reigning back-to-back national champion baseball team (who just arrived in Omaha to pursue a threepeat).

Of course, us being who we are, it became a hashtag.

The response was positive to that, so we'll see if it sticks around going forward.

I love your teams motto its really good! I don't know exactly how we came up with ours, but I think that might have been how we came up with it.

Re: What's your team motto?

"Building robots, building people"

Yeah, it's pretty generic, but unfortunately some of us are resistant to change so that motto continues to stick. It isn't bad, just a bit overdone.

Personally, a better motto for us would probably be: "Solve your problems before they can spread". Much like a wildfire, right? Right?

Re: What's your team motto?

We have two unofficial...
Never give up never surrender!
and
WildStang, Never Done.
That second one is holdover from a video we made in response to a Beatty Beast video in 2006 with the same title. You can find it here...

Re: What's your team motto?

"There is no spoon"

I don't know the exact interpretation but I know it goes about the lines that there is nothing stopping you from doing what you want to do. Things aren't going to happen for you. You have to do it yourself.
