American Robot Returns for 2007!

[Rick]

First off, on behalf of Team 121, The RhodeWarriors, I would like to welcome all the new members to FIRST and Chief Delphi. To all the veterans, the fun is just beginning.

As many of you remember, back during the build season of 2005, our team ventured into producing a weekly show about our progress during build season. The first episodes were enormously popular, using up our teams website bandwidth within 24 hours of releasing the first episode. The Chief Delphi community stepped up and made the episodes available. After the third episode, school caught up with the production team, and episodes were put on hold never to be completed.

Now we have new facilities, new equipment, new software, 8000% more bandwidth, and a dedicated team. We will be hosting the videos on our website and also on You Tube. Use this thread to let us know what you liked, didn’t like, and want to see in season two of AMERICAN ROBOT.

Check out the promo I made! (http://youtube.com/watch?v=nPwvZKpCD34)

I loved the promo, and I loved the first episodes of the original AMERICAN ROBOT, but I think you mispelled ''we'll'' :p

Can't wait for the first episode guys, and good luck in '07.

i must say i am looking forward to seeing this and will be waiting to see the first episode of the season!:D

[Greg Marra]

Yes!

This is the kind of thing that I love to see from communities. Harness your creative energies and make something awesome!

I hunted down those first two episodes last year, and I really liked what I saw. I was disappointed you guys ran into troubles that prevented you from finishing up the season, but it seems like now you've got what you need to really do an awesome job with it.

Best of luck, and I look forward to watching!

I must say, I'm lovin the choice of tunes for the promo!! keep on rockin and i'll definitely be coming back for more! can't wait to see the episodes, looks great!

Excellent, now I can stay on top of what is going on it Rhode Island, even when I am up in Troy. Hopefully I will be able to see the robots first hand and wont have to rely on the videos though.

Also for any one who doesn't know 1350 will be joining the other RI teams (121 and 1568) in Boston, so the state will be fully represented.

The Video looks great, I had been wanting to make something simillar but I never got around to it. If the episodes are anything like '05 then they are sure not to disappoint

I did misspell "We'll"... oops. But I didn't misspell, "mispell" Jay(jk). We do plan to keep rocking with the music in each episode. And James, we will be having a close relationship with 1568 this season. Hopefully we can showcase some of our meetings together.

Shortly americanrobot.rhodewarrior.org will be up and will house the different file size episodes. Subscribe to my channel on YouTube to see new videos immediately.

Stay Tuned!

I've had a few questions so far. Just a reminder that episodes will start airing online Wednesday January 17 at approximately 6pm. Episodes will be released each Wednesday after that.
