As always, the deadline is sorta kinda halfway Saturday at midnight Eastern. (And with no competition to wear me out this weekend, I might even judge it Sunday!)

Go!

Electricians are odd. This is how they show you they want Victors.

It just so happened to be human player try outs day...

EricH 26-03-2012 22:26

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
If it was a gray Jag, that backing would be SO full of holes, slits, and projectiles!

akoscielski3 26-03-2012 22:34

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Ahh, the places the Mechanical/CAD people put the electrical's on the robot is astonishing.

Jim Wilks 26-03-2012 22:40

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Jaguars always get the dirty jobs - driving motors either forwards or backwards endlessly around a small playing field. It's a hot and thankless task. Ultimately someone always rains down metal filings and then the Jaguar dies in a flurry of sparks. This little Jaguar managed to escape the electrical board and was caught here in the act of scaling the wall on the way to total freedom.

Karibou 27-03-2012 00:00

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
I wonder how fast that Jaguar had to run to wedge itself into the backboard?

dodar 27-03-2012 00:22

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Driver: Did the shooter break?

Coach: No, why?

Driver: We seemed to have lodged a jag into the backboard

Coach: ...I blame the programmers.

rsisk 27-03-2012 01:06

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
We tried to isolate the problem with our robot, removing one piece at a time until the problem went away... 'nuff said.

Brandon_L 27-03-2012 02:03

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
They took me a bit to literally when I told them to use jags in the shooter...

popnbrown 27-03-2012 02:11

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The jaguars are truly rebellious. They sometimes just jump off the robot.

Ninja_Bait 27-03-2012 06:28

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The stealthy and speedy Jaguar is among the more dangerous control system components in the Serengeti. It lies in wait for unsuspecting robotics teams to pounce upon and then blows up in their faces.

rawr!

NPOE: I would have reposted this, but too many people already put up the same idea:

So, it's not just our robot that throws out all the Jags that we put on it...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Today's FRC drive trains are just too powerful. Witness the centrifugal force that was just created.

Taylor 27-03-2012 09:05

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Does this fall under <G-10> - I can't find a definition for "grasp, grapple, or attach"?
Quick! Somebody find a reasonably astute observer!



[NPOE] Too soon? [/NPOE]

JaneYoung 27-03-2012 09:29

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Jane: This caption contest is giving me a headache.

Backboard: Tell me about it. At least you don't have a Jag stuck on you who thinks it's a basketball.

Jag: And the crowd roars, "Cut the nets! Cut the nets!"

EricS-Team180 27-03-2012 09:56

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
New for FRC 2012! The Jag D@^#-i-tall training target! Your drive team will line up and make the shot every time. :D

DonRotolo 27-03-2012 20:35

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The trick to capturing wild Jaguars is the adhesive on the paper: It needs to have just the right stickiness, and a mild version of the mating scent (essence of electrical smoke) to attract them. (Small bits of aluminum chaff helps, too).

rachelholladay 27-03-2012 21:06

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The things robot inspectors see at regionals...

GaryVoshol 27-03-2012 21:06

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The only time a jaguar has been right on target.

FRC4ME 29-03-2012 10:59

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
The Jaguar is in timeout until it realizes that "motor direction opposite day" is not a fun practical joke to play in the middle of a quarter final.

J.Warsoff 29-03-2012 22:43

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
I think the magic smoke is really getting to the electrical guys

PAR_WIG1350 29-03-2012 23:50

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Nobody move! If we stay perfectly still it can't see us... then it's just a matter of waiting for a CAN timeo- Oh! okay, we're good! At least it wasn't a stray Victor, they don't give up as easily.

gracie. 30-03-2012 00:34

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Once the magic smoke gets out of those jags... you might as well use them for target practice ^^

Peck 30-03-2012 02:21

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
Hey! you random guy who just walked in! Put this where we can find it while I look for the screws that just grew wings.

Wayne Doenges 30-03-2012 10:35

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
This Jaguar does not know the first thing about camoflauge.

nitneylion452 31-03-2012 00:59

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
It's a Jaguar on a backboard. Nothing to see here...

DonRotolo 31-03-2012 21:26

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
(Not a new entry, just for kicks)
Nearly the end of a rousing round of "99 T I Jag-wars on the wall"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
It might have been born a jaguar, but in its heart, it will always just want to be a spider.

Bill_B 02-04-2012 09:15

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403
 
As close to a moment of reflection as a Jaguar will ever get.
