As always the deadline is Saturday at midnight Eastern. I'll be at Peachtree this week; find me with 2815 and you can make your entry in person. (Written-down entries are preferred.)
Go!
And that, my friends, is how magic is m'aide.

To secure her team's win, the head mentor went Super Saiyan to give her robot a boost...... and long blond hair.

There's always something magic about someone who is truly passionate for FIRST.
Her screaming is the reason why they nicknamed the winning basketball shot - "the shot heard around the world."

The head mentor looks on in horror as the robot her team spent weeks building falls apart at the beginning of their first match.
Clearing the room in a hurry:
"There's a Mountain Dew stash next door!"
took second place to
"The robot's on fire!"

She was using supersonic screams to disrupt robots from the stands... Professor X had a word with her later about "responsible use of power".

This is my happy face!!!
No! Don't touch the other alliance's bridge! :eek: Aargh, now we have a technical foul. I might as well just leave. :o
When it came time for the marshmallow catching contest, M'Aiken Magic pulled out their secret weapon....

"WHAT!, you picked 1618, you were not supposed to pick 1618, this scouting sheet clearly states to pick 342, not 1618! Dancing robot, not mutton chops!"
(Luv ya Billfred)

She was doing so well. Months has past since she had last thought about it. Unknowingly, she was winning. That all ended when she looked over and saw those two dreaded words: THE GAME.

[obviously not an entry]
Actually, we picked 1102 that year at Palmetto as the 8th alliance captain (http://chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/28931), not the other way around. Had our representative correctly read my mind on the "Oh crap, we're 12th seed, we might need a list..." list I scrawled out, then he would've picked 342 after 801. Considering 342 wound up winning their first (and, so far, only) regional title that day, I figure it worked out nicely for them.

A 6 week build season, the team could take.
A robot with problems, the team could take.
Unreasonable demands, the team could take.
A ban on Mountain Dew, the team could take.
Late nights and no food, the team could take.
Even self-igniting motors, the team could take.
But when she started singing opera, the team could no longer take it.

There really is a lot of magic in the whole "Go LOUD or go home!" approach to things.
And then there's the whole "Where'd this laryngitis come from?" surprise afterward.

Is there anything in the FIRST Rulebook about "excessive celebration?"
