Yeah, I gotta say that this robot is really impressive, and really simple (like Fluffy) and we are really excited about it. (really) And what a great group of students we've got this year!

Those few words are the scariest teaser that I've seen/heard so far. For those of you who don't remember Fluffy, he was one mean machine. So mean, he even took down an almost unbeatable B.E.A.S.T.

I'm excited yet afraid...

I'm excited yet afraid... We usually refer to Fluffy as a "her" but whatever.

Yes it is true. I saw it also with my own eyes. :ahh: It was so amazing, like watching humans use tools for the first time. It pushed Fluffy rather easily also. James said it was partly because Fluffy's current treads are a little worn, but they aren't that worn.

Tiff said she would post this and someone else said "careful, that statement will haunt everyone's dreams until competition".

We should use the lights as eyes or something. I just saw the video, it's awesome.

I would say that Fluffy did take down the B.E.A.S.T. It just happened that the B.E.A.S.T's alliance still won, without the B.E.A.S.T.

Hm, i'm eager to test other teams pushing ability this year. We've got a little ace up our sleeve to trump any drivetrains that might somehow counter our near glue like wheel tread... (and no its not a wedge, i posted a teaser earlier ;))

Do you guys plan on posting a teaser photo? Or even a video (so we can see this "monster" shove "fluffy" around).
