SPAM Robot design
 
Team 180 came decided last thursday to make a drastic change from our normal robot design process.

After finishing the last of 180 cans of Spam, our team came to the realization. A robot built competely from spam, the containers that hold it, and a few rubber bands could completely dominate at the upcoming competitions. The drive system will be built from two solidified pieces of Spam, with the rubber bands running between them. The chassis will be constructed from the left-over cans of spam that we consumed last night. The treads will be made from Spam labels, and it will lift the bins with Spam's telekinetic aura.

Thank you.

This is not entirely true. You forget that it also depends on the combined will of the members of the team and the intense concentration of the driver and operator.

We can also go under the bar in SPAMphibious mode.

FIRST robotics is only one of our robot's purposes. We are also in the Spam Bowl parade. The surface of the robot has to be completely made of Spam except the wheels that can be made of fruitcake.

We don't know this person. There is no Spam Bowl parade. Please do not send us emails about this. We have already received 300. *sigh*

JJG13 11-01-2003 14:26

No Spam Bowl Parade?

I ate all that spam for nothing?

Noelle 11-01-2003 14:29

People people! you must realize that while our robot is based on the above basics our animation team are not nearly as into our "unique" methods. But they believe that the old ways of about the 1700's is more the style they need to follow. They will be banned from attending regionals and nationials w/ us if they do not conform to our new methods. They are sending us negative vibes and break our concentration. I will admit... it takes a lot to keep it moving:D

Noelle 11-01-2003 14:33

and yes, you ate the SPAM for nothing now stop trying to be with us, we are better then you!

[Sarcasm] Oh sorry, I'm on the other Team Spam 180. [/Sarcasm]

BTW, you have the same name as the one who told me to eat all that spam.

Noelle 11-01-2003 15:25

No way! i'm not that powerful with my mind control and besdies I have people underneath me to do my dirty work aka gilligan and stephenova.

Our robot can move about 18 feet a sec on a good day but thats only if we lock the animation team in the closet

Rickertsen2 11-01-2003 15:36

Hmm this entire thread is SPAM

Brandon Martus 11-01-2003 15:52

Uhhhh, wouldn't that violate some kind of rule about not including "dangerous and/or toxic substances" on the robot that might endanger the players or audience?

If there is not such a rule, there should be.

Y = AX^2 + BX + C doesn't have much Spam in it...

I hope there is, because a robot made of asbestos wouldn't really thrill the judges in the 'XEROX Creativity Award' department.

Tonay K 13-01-2003 19:56

where have you been? Oh, and crazy enough to have really good friends on other teams who understand. especially one of them ;)

Gadget470 13-01-2003 21:33

*ahem*

MRL180YTL2002 13-01-2003 21:49

This is merely a place for those you would like to share what's up with S.P.A.M.'s robot and having the most people registered here from one team also for various comments on said members but stick to the robot. But keep in mind what FIRST represents. That's why I stopped there......her team offered to adopt me to build their robot last year, this year, and keep me after the 2001 competition. Everything comes together.

A. Leese 13-01-2003 22:35

Oh my. You all are insane. Just one small comment. Please grow up. Now. You're embarasing our team and the good people it once stood for. Act your age. For once. At least in public. At meetings is one thing, on here wherever everyone can see you, be mature. Ok? That's all I ask. BTW..who are you people?? I can assume hixofthehood is Andrew Hix but I know none of the others of you. *sigh* I'm out.

Your humble SPAM webmaster,
Angela

Greg Perkins 14-01-2003 09:50

yea i can understand a spam robot, but what about a robot with a huge meat cleaver on the front, o no! then we would have like a hundred little spammers on the feild! ACK!

Cory 19-01-2003 00:34

that was a post linking to rules, stating that there should not be repeated meaningless posts, and personal conversations, not one word
