We get by with a little help from our friends...

[ColleenShaver]

First off, I just want to says thank's to T140 & all the volunteers for putting on a tremendous competition in Mayhem!

We went to the competition with many 'rookie' students (first time drive/op/hp/pit/etc) and no 'technical' mentor support (our ops and mechanical leaders are enjoying themselves in Italy and Iceland, respectively, on WPI projects). We ran into a lot of trouble during the day and wouldn't have been able to make it through quite as well with the great help and support of the many friendly faces on the teams there. From cable crimps (thanks 140), to cable (thanks 61), to electrical/wiring support (thanks 157 & 151), to charged batteries & duct tape (thanks 88), it's the little things that make a difference.

And we'll see all those friendly faces again at Battlecry! Remember, the WPI pit is always open for help, tools, spares.. whatever we can get for you (we'll give it our best shot, but we're a just a bunch of WPI geeks, our abilities only extend so far :P)!

Thanks again to all our friends... ;-)

hey 190,

after you helped us win riverrage last year, we have worshiped you(at least i worship you guys) we have no objections to helping you guys out!!! you totally kicked butt, with your amazing robot, to your excellent members who are more than cheerfull(hey justin!), to the awsome support with anything people need. I also hope that you guys pick us at battlecry, after mayhem i know we can beat 121, unfortunatly we couldnt, so i hope you guys seed and i hope we can leave off from where we left off at mayhem:) keep us in mind, ps. we will also have a tether for battlecry! so take care you guys, the 15th is gonna be outrageous!!!!

151- you guys have a kickbutt robot.

Not only were you top of our list in Mayhem, but you were our first choice in Rally (but we got chosen by someone higher). We'd love to see that wall we made in practice happen in the finals (*wishing we had done that now becuase that would have saved that goal from getting ripped from us that first match!!*)

I'm glad to hear you're adding a tether.. that'll just add to an already awesome 'bot!

We're looking forward to some matches with you at BattleCry! Be sure to come visit our pit and we'll help you with anything you need!

[Greg Perkins]

sure thing, I do too hope that we can build the wall that we had done in practice rounds! but we will have to see what happens!!


best of luck to all!

Hey WPI,

I"m really sorry we didn't get the chance to try the wall again in the finals. I know i was against it but i still wish we had tried it,
:-) but you know what they say Hindsight is 20/20, i really hope we get to try it at battlecry. Sorry if i was stubborn
