As always, the deadline is theoretically sorta kinda Saturday at midnight Eastern.

Go!

[EricH]

"So, yellow means go really, really fast, right?"
"No, it means that we've been too aggressive."
"But there aren't any other robots around!"
"That's because you tipped three-quarters of them over already."
"Oh."

[DonRotolo]

This week we have an Audio contest entry... (http://www.acmewebpages.com/midi/ramming.wav)

...Ramming speed!... <steam whistle sound>


-.-

[GaryVoshol]

And the parade was disrupted when the sensor saw the yellow light, and the robot changed from "Drive Straight" to "Turn Left". The crowd scattered.

[rsisk]

"Little Robbie", the 2009 robot did not make it into the intersection before the light turned yellow. Little Robbie was never seen again. *sniff*

[lingomaniac88]

Autonomous robot meets traffic light:

Robot: Okay, I've seen pink on green. Red on green, okay, maybe. But with a yellow in between? This is the weirdest vision target I've ever seen! What kind of trailer am I following? Ah, the heck with this. There's a really good-looking robot on the other side of the street. Time to work some magic. *drives off*

Drivers: I guess the cRIO is so powerful that it gives the robot a mind of its own. Holy mackerel.

[ATannahill]

Ok kids, make sure that fishing line doesn't break or the robot is going into the bay.

[Taylor]

The robot can keep up because it's got speed holes.

[Al Skierkiewicz]

The Tribe goes on to prove that their robot really did have the pulling power they claimed by pulling and entire Memorial Day Parade.

[J93Wagner]

There they go, off and around... a POTHOLE!

[Chris is me]

TRIBE wanted to see if they could push Truck Town.

needs to be reworded to be witty

[Wayne Doenges]

Student: "Don't look now but we are being followed and it doesn't look friendly."

[Rich Wong]

Robot: “Hey, move it! Beep, beep, beep!
You drive like an Edsel. Move it! Honk! Honk!
Hey you make me miss the light again and I’m late for work. Beep, beep!
What’s the matter, you can find the gas pedal? Beeeeeeep!”


Student on the truck: “This year our robot pick up some really bad driving habits after going to the NYC Regional! “

[NorviewsVeteran]

237 just couldn't seem to score on one trailer in particular; the alleged "non-regulation wheels" were to be named the cause by some. Others simply said, "Please dude, don't get behind the horses again."

[JaneYoung]

Robot singing: I love a parade... oh wait,they need a push NOW?!? Sheesh!

I'm coming boys, everything is under control!

[AndyB]

Coming this summer... Tremors V: Robot Death Worms.

Everybody get in the truck!

[GillSt.Bernards]

Thank you thank you. Me! oh no it was all you. Thank you thank you all

[Katie_UPS]

Go fast, turn left?

[Travis Hoffman]

Even the presence of legally-designed bumpers could not quell the dread the little bot felt as it ventured out onto the New England roadways among the millions of insane drivers who terrorize that region daily.

[kramarczyk]

Stars and Stripes trekkin, across the universe, only going forward, 'cause we can't find reverse.

[BrendanB]

Yep this driver just got his license. He slow down/stops on red.

[Ryan Simpson]

Once upon a time, there was a little robot that had a big task. It had to get all the way to the end of the parade. The beginning was easy, so the little blue robot had not trouble at all. Then, it comes upon a big hill. As it begins its way up the hill, it says "I think I can. I think I can. I think I can." It climbs and climbs, until...it runs out of battery. As the rest of the parade leaves it behind, the little blue robot says, "I thought I could. I thought I could. I thought I could."

Moral of the Story: Always Bring Spare Batteries

[delsaner]

You claimed that the robot handled everything you threw at it... Did it handle nukes?? ICBM's?? GAU-8 Gatling gun?? Can it handle those?? :rolleyes:

[Billfred]

Okay, here we go!

First place goes to:

Robot: “Hey, move it! Beep, beep, beep!
