I was laughing soo hard when I was watching this! :D

The idea of the ad is very similar to the (sort of) old ad of FIRST about the NI CRio as the new FRC 2009 robot controller ("power! Power! POWER!").

Great job Blair Robotics!

Totally deserves this kind of recognition. :D

Nice job! It reminds me of the video made earlier in the year.
See http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62015 for that video

Nice job. I'll give you guys props on the idea that 50% of engineering is using ideas from other places :p

Only 64 robots?

Actually, our ad was based off of Powerthirst (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRuNxHqwazs).

Just comes to show how much I'm not IN with the funney stuff going on lately. :rolleyes:

But still, made me laugh out hard every time I saw a vid based on that PowerThirst ad. :D

Almost as crazy as the NI commercial for the cRio control system.

Hahahah!!! I cracked up! I've never seen the PowerThirst videos until now, but you guys did a great job. Loved it, though it was loud.

"Power Programming! Power Scouting!" :ahh:

It looks like this commercial was made to recruit new members to you team?
When did you play this commercial? In your school?

It was indeed. We played it on our school's video morning announcements. However, the producers decided that it was too long, and cut it down to 17 seconds by removing the middle (without our consent). The result didn't make much sense. But we did have about 50 new members show up the first day, so something must have worked!
