Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

We were having this conversation at our shop, and we were wondering who would be the top 3 bots in every state for this year.

I picked 67, 469, and 548 as my top 3 picks for Michigan. What would be your picks?

I would say Florida's would be 180, 233, 1592.

In my area if new york it would have to be 1507 340 and 1511...

I dont know for say many of the teams in the new York city Area though.

PA I'd have to say 341, 1218, 365 with 222 as a close 4th or tie.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

I'd say 1507, 340, 191.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

Lots of good ones. Based on the bots I saw in person. 118, 624, & 1477. Only went to Lonestar so I'm sure there were other great ones at the other regionals that I'm leaving out.

NJ- 25, 1676, and 2590 with 2016 as runner ups.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

For Georgia, I give you 2415, 1311, and 1771.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

For California, I vote 1717, 973 and then 254/1538 about tied.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

For Kansas I'd have to go 935, 1108, and 1710.

Re: Top 3 Bots in YOUR State
 

I really like 1538, but I think 254 certainly whoops them this year. 254 Was the #1 pick over some good teams in their division, and put up the highest score this year. 1538 was still good, but not as good.

#1: 1540: Flaming Chickens
This thing did awesome at their Pacific Northwest regionals and at Oklahoma. The team made without a doubt in my mind the best robot to come out of Oregon this year, and one that even stands up to some of the best from Washington.

#2: 2898/1510: Flying Hedgehogs/Wildcats
Both did well at Portland, and each individually rocked a different Seattle field. The design was consistent as well as versatile, and I also have to give big kudos to how well they stood out visually.

#3: 2733: Pigmice
Video included because they're the only design on my list that didn't go to World's this year, and I think more people outside of OR/WA should see this robot. It's a wonderful idea and I think they did a great job with it.

Based on Ed Law's Worldrank, for OH, it would be 48 (31), 3138 (50), and 379 (51). I'd put 3193 in that 379 range as well.

Is this a question of the best robotics teams, meaning robot performance and more, or purely robot performance?

Best robotics teams in Indiana this year:
234
461
1024
Honorable Mentions: 45, 868, 1501

Best robots in Indiana this year:
234
829
3487
Honorable Mentions: 71, 1646, 3940

For Illinois, I would have to say 111, 2949, and 1625.

I think 148 needs to be included in this list. They were finalists at their first regional, and won their next 2. Although they didn't have a great outcome at championships, they still went 7-2 in qualifications.
