Re: Curie Teams
 

Glad to see so much excitement about the Curie division. I did a quick check and it looks like we have 48 teams in the division that were top 20 seeds in their regional comps. Some were seeded top 20 in multiple regionals too. Should make for an interesting week.

Re: Curie Teams
 

Out of all of the Curie robots which robot do you guys like the best?

Re: Curie Teams
 

Team 1114 has a pretty sweet machine.

Re: Curie Teams
 

Do you know where a pic of there bot is or can you tell me about it and what it does please?

For a good summary of what our robot does, check out this thread...

We've been incredibly conisistent at our last two events, hanging in 27 out of our last 29 matches. We've also been very successful at capping the stationary, which we did in our first 7 matches in Toronto. (We never tried to cap during the elimination rounds)

I'd say our greatest asset is our ability to control the bar. We can hook to the bar, then strafe side to side to defend. It's a pretty neat move.

I'm really excited about our division. We may not be garnering as much attention as the other three divisions, but I think there are more than enough top teams for Curie to form a powerhouse alliance.

Re: Curie Teams
 

1114 definately has a quality robot. Their best feature is obviously the fact they can consistently hang. Their robot is the type that I think will win the nationals. They can cap and hang and will probably go all the way in the Curie division.

Re: Curie Teams
 

Ok I cant wait to check out 1114's robot in action at nationals...are there any other nominations for good robots?

Re: Curie Teams
 

I was surprised to see so few teams from the big East (NY, NJ, Penn) in our division. All of our teams biggest competition is in other divisions. I cant wait to work w/ all of the different teams. I look forward to these nationals. :cool:


Go MORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Curie Teams
 

Team 461 Westside Boiler Invasion is totally pumped to compete in the Curie Division. If anyone needs any help throughout the course of nationals, stop by our pits, there will be someone more than willing to help you out. Good luck to everyone in Curie, it will be a great division!

This is our 10th year in FIRST. Hope to see all the good robots in action


I see there are some robots that have been to a lot of regionals. those robots should of gotten all the bugs out in time for the nationals

Re: Curie Teams
 

hey driver from 47 here, sorry we hit that patch of bad luck 1097 and 114, but it all fixed now and shouldnt happen again.
besides 1097 you were my favorite team there, when you guys did that bio-dome skip/clap thing i was really geared up.
hey in atlanta when we get a chance i can get alot of people form my team to join your and we can skip/clap around the whole stadium.
and maybe you guys should do a morning exercise too, get alot of teams involved, just gimme the word and i'll be there.
:ahh: and watch out! :ahh:
we got some new blow away new moves, cheering and robot strageties, we only are stracthing the surface!

Re: Curie Teams
 

WOW! im soo jealous of this amazing division. all i can say is that you all better watch out for that 1114 machine. it is THE definition of greatness (well in my eyes anyways). but in all seriousness the simbotics machine is the epitome of the balance between versatility and power. i wish we were in this division so we could finish what we started in mississagua but alas, itll haveto wait untill next year...

good luck to everyone who must face the simbotics machine, youll be in for a suprise. those crazy kanucks ( jk guys :D) are always pulling something out of their sleeves.

and of course id wish good luck to simbotics but they make their own.

go kick some robot,
Paco

Re: Curie Teams
 

All right, morning exercises! Just have one giant fitness expo. "Robotics? What's that? We're here for the warm-ups!"

Yeah let's try to get that cooridinated for the skip/clap. Our normal "exercise guru" won't be there but we'll find a replacement. Maybe we should try to get the entire stadium to follow?
