Just out of curiousity what kinds of pizza keeps everyone fuled at night? Do any of you eat it for breakfast after pulling an all nighter? Last question... Is there any coffee or food that keeps anyone going better??


Sorry, just outta curiousity though?!?

I'd like to explain what powers our robot, but I don't know where you guys would get that many pickles.

DanLevin247 12-05-2002 17:49

Hope, Dreams, and a whole lotta cussing are what really makes 'da bearfoot 4 go.

The thing that powers my team to build a robot is a full day of making fun of our coaches "Darren Hoffman". He's very hairy so we make Hair jokes about him. Drug's well we use ritalin and for a drink we top it off with some sugar. Mountain Dew / Pepsi after that we purposely get screasmed at by the coaches. I enjoy being on this team. Its so fun.


Do the Dew!!!

My team
 
Some of the many things that keep my team going are
-Mountain Dew
-Jolt
-Krank 2o <------(Caffine Water)
-Knowing that we only have one week to go and that all we have is a chassis
-Soccer Juggling Competition
-And finally our engineers who never sleep and who I think are robots.:D

My team utilizes many methods from massive Mountain Dew intake to going on the laptop to intaking sugar. But how can you diss the Dew? Pepsi? Cola drinks are disgusting. Personally, I like Root Beer, Birch Beer, and Mountain Dew.

Little Caesers keeps us powered. They're one of our sponsors and we get pizzas from them for like $2 each!

To wash it down, we typically are fueled off of Mountain Dew or Code Red...

You're both wrong!!!

ok... leave it to the only girl on the pit crew to get it right JIM!....

The switch was NOT on the control PANEL... and the switch was taken off a LONG while ago... and MOEhawk kept running!

So all robot control belongs to Lou-cifer and the pit crew... who used the energy gained from the plethora of Papa Johns pizzas and the lovely carbonated beverages from the fridge [including mountain dew [or MOE-tain dew]] durring the build period; ran parabolas in the pit area chanting, banging the infamous sticks, useing voodoo, and a large amount on anti-seize [VINCE!!!!!]. In order to resurrect MOEhawk between matches.

PS- our pit rocked! We just need to get an "under the cabinet" tape deck to play some elvis next year.

Hasn't anyone ever heard of the stapple of life? MOXIE!!!!
No human should ever have to go through life without it.


Also, tie wraps...... one of our engineers gave me a tie wrap Thursday night at the MidAtlantic Regional about a half hour before the pits closed. I had been up since about 3:30 am that morning, and worked and drove the robot all day. I was very tired and while holding on to the end of the tie wrap tied around my wrist, I started to lean as I fell asleep and ended up pulling the tie wrap very tight after falling asleep, bad idea. They are not intended for children.

Yeah we run on Wendy's and Moeism's.

Doing the dew, or visiting the doctor?
 
God this is the toughest poll yet! How does one decide between the caffineated collosus, and the Dr. of Death? Personally I'm torn, but from a census of the team usual stock I'm gonna admit Moutain Dew. But on a personal note I'll take one Dr. Pepper and call you in the morning. -Big Steve

Just about everything
 
Pizzas, chinese food, hamburguers, coke, Guaraná ( as Digo noted, hehehe ), and 100% pure Brazilian Coffee ( a STRONG, wake-up-the-dead BLAAACCCK liquid ). You know nothing about staying awake till you had one of those.
Oh, there´s also the local Chimarrão drink ( mild caffeine tea, drank in a weird bowl ), but that´s more of a social thing, not for the late-at-nite hours.
And for me, it´s screaming loud Metal on my earplugs as we go into the night ( and I´m locked in my corner hacking some code ).
Just my R$ 0.02 =)

Anyone tried Amp? It's an energy drink made by Mountain Dew...

It's pretty good.

TomA 06-12-2002 17:50
