11:59 CLUB

[SciBorg Dave]

Did most team finish bag and tag at 11:59 Tuesday.
If so you are now part of the 11:59 club.

Team 4061 is a member.

[Andrew Lawrence]

For the first time in years, 256 isn't in the 11:59 club. :( Surprisingly, we're in the 8:30 and then go home and sleep club.

[billbo911]

2073 finished and bagged at 10:55 PM.

[Richard Wallace]

3620 bagged 61 pounds of chassis and climber, and kept out 24 pounds of floor loading shooter, at 11:49. 10+ minutes ahead of schedule. :)

None of my teams has ever had a robot this far below the weight limit at Stop Build before.

[DjMaddius]

We were going to bag at 11:20, but found some issues at 11:19 we had to take care of quickly bagged at 11:59 pm :)

[NXTGeek]

Dude our tag reads 11:59! Believe me, we used EVERY moment...

[gyroscopeRaptor]

11:59:55.

It was fun.

[MikeE]

Bagged at 11:52 wasting 0.01% of build time

[pyroslev]

11:59:30 pm but that was more for photo ops. With a third the team leaving, took a few extra seconds for them.

[MechEng83]

1741 was tagged at 11:52PM, 7 minutes ahead of schedule!

[Ashwin775]

Wave finished at 11:57

[Christopher149]

11:59:55.

It was fun.

That's nothing. 857 hopes to be in the February 21 club. We had a blizzard hit on stop build day, closing the high school and all the universities, and they remain closed today. The plows were pulled at 1:45pm on the 19th, so there was no chance of getting to the robot. We hope to get over there to bag it tomorrow.

[Squillo]

11:58 (didn't want to push it...) and swiss-cheesing until the next-to-last minute. Still 0.4 lbs. over...

A couple of good "quotes" happened in those last 3 hours, too. :rolleyes:

[mcarobotics]

4595 bagged at 11:42. :)

[Whippet]

Team 4301 finished at 9:00, when we were kicked out of the building so they could lock it up.

[Ravage457]

We bagged around 11:20 after finishing the robot, and than had sometime to play with it before putting it in the bag, it was fun lol

[bardd]

Team #2212 is a member twicefold... we pulled the last tie a few seconds before the clock showed 00:00

[Calvin Hartley]

2771 finished a drive practice match at 11:59:22. By the time we had the robot off, bumpers off (which still need a little work), battery out, robot in the bag and tag on the bag it was 11:59:59PM. Just in time. :cool:

[ablatner]

For at least the 10th year in a row, Team 100 is in the Monday club, not to say the robot is done ;)

[jds2001]

4263 was also kicked out of the building at 9PM. I think we pushed em off til about 9:30, then we really were gone.

Ahh, sleep....oh wait, there's still vision code to be written. D'oh!

[shank948]

948 wasn't a member this year, more like 11:50. We held behind our shooter for final calibration and weight elimination. Look forward to us parking at the feeder station and making 80-90% of our 3 point shots.

[blackwood]

I think our kids bagged the robot around 11:20pm or so, nevertheless we are always "1 minute before midnight"... Team 2359

[themccannman]

Finished our climbing mechanism during the last 60 seconds of build season, got to test it, succeeded, and bagged the robot with 2 seconds to spare, too close for comfort.

[dudefise]

2637 finished at 11:53 this year, ahead of schedule by 6 minutes!

[protoserge]

836 is in the 11:59 PM club as well. We use every last second possible for testing!

We even had time for some video of our two robots (competition and practice) in action side-by-side :)

[scaryone]

58 bagged at 10:00 +/- a minute or two. I think we were at 117.4 lbs

[Jeffy]

At 11:15 ish, we were so frustrated with the climber we opted to go from 50:1 versa's to 100:1. At 11:52, we made a very nice unassisted climb. Spent the last few minutes weighing and filing.
Ready to inspect out of the bag @ 114.6 pounds!

[jimwick]

11:54
That's early for us.
I'm not saying everything was working!

[Peragore]

3373 Bagged at 11:59:59. Looking forward to competition!

[RoboMom]

I'd be interested in how many members there are to the 11:59 Award Submission Club.
Or the support group for the teams that were too late because they tried to join the 11:59 club.
