Re: FRC Card Deck

I'd buy one, maybe 5 depending on how I feel.

Re: FRC Card Deck

there is a Joker in the deck? :p

Re: FRC Card Deck

Found this link CARD (Collegiate Aerial Robotics Display!) I didn't attend the Championships, and wished I did! I will plan to go next year as a spectator or as a participant!:D. I would have liked to see this!

My 2 cents for what its worth:
Girls of FIRST playing cards featuring the girls on teams! (not what your thinking...) Mentors of FIRST working from King- Dean Kamen, Joker- Dave Lavery and others. Contact Logo Loc (FIRST Store) they may want to offer a deck of cards with FIRST logos on them and your ideas on the other side!

Re: FRC Card Deck

I'd buy one. Also, I suggest replacing the suits with Championship Divisions.

Re: FRC Card Deck

I checked with FIRST, I am allowed to use the logo on the back of the cards! Yay! I am also going to take someone's suggestion and use Kickstarter - unfortunately, it takes days for it to be set up. So...waiting...

Re: FRC Card Deck

I'm in for one!

Re: FRC Card Deck

I'd be interested. Perhaps look outside Michigan/MAR too.

Re: FRC Card Deck

I'd actually do it more chronologically.
Have each year be the winning teams of that year, going back with the years.
For example having the kings be the winners of this year, plus the chairmans winner. The queens that of last year, and so on. Once you get back to 2004 and the days with 2 robots per alliance, you can add remarkable robots, WFA winners, or even gamepieces.

I think that would bear more time resistance than a deck that's specific to this year.

Re: FRC Card Deck

I really want a deck or 2 can't wait to see them finished.

If you're selling them (especially in those quantities), you'll probably want to either avoid using FIRST's trademarks, or to run this by FIRST for permission. I think the conversation might go more smoothly if you explain whether this is for profit or not.

Thank you for adding this. Marketing@usfirst.org is where you want to go to ask for permission. As long as you follow the branding standards FIRST lays out for you, (http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...ng-tools/brand) you should be fine. The basic rules are, don't alter the logo, keep it unobstructed by other graphics, and don't make a profit off the logo.

Whoops, you did this already.

Additionally, you might want to ask the TEAMS you plan on featuring if it's okay to use their robots. And if you use anyone else's photos other than your own, ask for permission. It's not nice to take others' work. (This could be solved in one-shot by contacting the teams, asking for their permission and a photo of their choice to be used on the card.)

All of that aside, I'd totally buy a few. I think even FIRST's offices would think it's a cool thing to have! They'd make great giveaways.
