Where is the website?

[Mike Norton]

Are you going to have events during the break like last year.


Maybe:

tug -of-war

the most balls picked up and placed in a goal in 2 mins.

Fastest mouse in the house.

[Dave_222]

the website is www.tahsroboticsteam.org and as far as I know we are going to have specialty rounds.

[Dave_222]

[COLOR=orange]As it sits right now we have 16 teams. The specialty rounds that are set in stone are the tug-o-war and most balls in 60 seconds. You can see all the teams that are coming by clicking on the robot challange link on our home page. If you are interested in sighning up you can do it there.COLOR]

[Ken Delaney]

Team 357 Royal Assault plans to be there. We really enjoyed the experience last year.

[Rick Gibbs]

I vote for a tug-o-war. T-Rx was undefeated last year at Nationals.

[Dave_222]

Well folks we have 23 out of a maximum of 30 teams signed up so if you gonna come you need to signup now. We would also like to say thank you to the teams who have been coming to the competion for several years now especially t-rx. Thank you for keeping the competition alive for so long.

was there a tug of war last year we didn't know about.

We were at the nationals and didn't see a tug of war.

If there was you are lucky that we didn't pull agaisnt you.

We have not lost a pushing or pulling match this year yet. Most of the robots get flipped over when they try to stop us.

[Dave_222]

To all teams attending the competition and intend on buying the $10 shirt, you need to let us know how many you are purchaseing.

[Ken Delaney]

Members on our team were wondering what the t-shirt looked like. Do you have a picture or could you describe it?

[MrsT]

225 will be there again.

Tigertrons always do a good job hosting....and its a nice last event for our seniors.

[Dave_222]

Dont listen to brad the shirts are desighned and we should be getting the desighn in a few days.

[team222badbrad]

Well if they are designed then...................why dont you tell them what they look like???;) :p

[Dave_222]

Ask fred he knows, he told me to post that.

[RoboWizard DP]

The reigning champions shall return!

I'm not sure if we are registered yet, but the Robo Wizards Team 522 will be there. Good luck to all of the teams competing this year.

[Dave_222]

522 is registered.

[team222badbrad]

I think the price for these shirts will be 10$$ I am not positive though?

*******This is a rought draft only! They will have names of each state on them, if a team from NJ is playing at PRC it will have NJ on the shirt.

****We are also having 2 specialty rounds TBA
something like a score the most points as possible and some sort of drag race type thingy???????

[Rick Gibbs]

[purplehaze357]

[The Lucas]

Speaking of color, Purplehaze357 is your hair going to be purple for the Challenge. I didn't see any purple hair at nationals and I am going through withdrawl.:D

[Ken Delaney]

What is the schedule for this event? I did not see a start time on the website. Maybe I just missed it. What is the earliest we could get there to set up the pit?
