the 4 hours up & back were definitely worth it. i know a lot of our new members will be staying now that they see how much fun competitions (& robotics in general) really are. it was a lot of fun to see everyone again. what did you all think of our drumline? :D the game computer being b0rk didn't really affect anything...it was just another obstacle to overcome. though, we did just use the dongle to run in autonomous anyway hehehe. rudy, great job on the trophies. and those pink shoes...fabulous. congrats to all the winners and we'll see you all at regionals!

ps, thanks, spam, for lending us a radio. and isabel, i hope you know you can't be popular AND smart.

Ive never laughed that hard in my life

Awesome everyone! Plain out AWESOME!

Special thanks goes out to SPAM 180! Without you guys (especially nick!) we'd have never been able to get as far as we did! From practice rounds of mounting our bumber to the final match of the day, we made an amazing team!

Also, thanks to 186! You guys pulled it together, got what you needed to get done done, and ended up doing an outstanding job!

To everyone else: Awesome job! Great fun had by all! Also, thanks to everyone for being sooo sportsman-like. I don't think I had even one problem where a team didnt come over and make sure that after they did something to us, that it didnt cause any problems. Thanks!

Side-note: I liked the no auton mode phase. It really brings back the old days where there was no auton. Heh, whereas this was my first competition driving, it just seemed like a lot more fun without the auton.


Hope to see yall real soon! Let's keep this intra-team bonding thing going through UCF everyone! We are the Florida robotics, let's work together as one. Now I too need a nap, so GOOOOOOD night everyone!

Robot Rodeo 2003 was awesome. probably the most fun competition we ever had. thanks to 180 and 186 for being such a good alliance. nick(180) you were very helpfull and very nice to us... i wouldnt mind having you in our pit crew. Jim even though this was your first time ever driving that bot in a competition ... it looked like you were experienced... thank you so much for getting us there... it woulnt have been possible without you... the whole trip was worth it. Dan ... finally i got to meet you... you are cool... but DONT ever try to run away with our trophy. Tytus... you are pretty cool. Isabel.. you are nice.. there is not a lot to say about you since this is not my first time meeting you. thanks to 386 for letting us borrow some zipties even though you were our opponent. everybody worked together for this competition and helped each other. hope the tradition continues..............:)

I gave you 1 ziptie too!

THANKS DUDE!!! sorry for not putting your name there....

the rodeo was pretty awesome, and 79 & 170 you guys are great, thanks! swamp thing was doing wonderful we we could get deployed and we even survived the beating we we didnt, poor george... great words. Does any one know what exactly was the problem with the field, i think we where jinxed when the little dity was said in the before rodeo talk?

What i saw when looking at the controls was that after AI mode the system would reset it self not letting human operation. I was talking to the guy running it and he sayed the glitch was between the control box and the software on the computer.

Amanda.. don't you mean 710 lol.. we were the ones teamed w/ you in the finals

:-\

if not I'm retarded

Thnx for a great comp and for everyone rockin so much

ohh sorry,yes i meant 710 im on my dads computer, and the key board is weird, it wont let me type "when" either thats why the double we's are there also. so much for trying to type.

Hey! Some of my deslexica rubbing off on you mandie?

I sure hope Amanda does not start typing like Tytus... because then even more typos will be coming out from swampthing *shock and awe*

Missing Equipment
 

Hello All:

Thank you again for coming to University High School! We had a lot of fun getting things ready for you, and it looks like you had a lot of fun at the event.

I am sorry to say that someone "accidentally" picked up our team's (1083) power supply, and now we can't work with our robot.

Would someone please look through their stuff and see if they have two power supplies?

Thanks!
Nathan Pell

Me not showing up: "Noooo good!" :(

I deserve to get ARROWED!
