639 bot sees action in Iraq
 

In a bugeting mistake on Capitol Hill, the Pentagon accedentally bought The Red Tulip for 2 million dollars. It is now seeing action in Iraq, autonomously changing lightbulbs on Iraqi highways

Well, on the down side, I'm not sure what good the lightbulbs are going to do with the current power grid issues in Iraq, but on the bright side, it looks like fundraising won't be an issue for your team anymore! :D

This reminds me of a great idea. How about a FIRST yearbook, where each robot has a picture, and a "most likely to ..." line. That might be fun.

"Team 195's robot, most likely to... sit in a room and never be used again, then be stripped for parts next build season"

639 waaay too liberal for that to ever happen, Kev. Nice try! :)

Re: 639 bot sees action in Iraq
 

Frankly, I dont care if our team is liberal or not.

Re: 639 bot sees action in Iraq
 

Oh it definitely would :)

Team 1159's 2004 bot would be commandeering a pirate ship ;D

Team 648 "most likely to... take over the world with it's hook of doom." :yikes:

Team 759 "most likely to..... drown trying to get to america with its overweight lifting arm"

"Team 33..... mostly likely to join the NBA ;) "

Re: 639 bot sees action in Iraq
 

Oh yeah. That'd be sweet. I'll see if 617 can start that at the Nasa/VCU regional as a fundraiser - pics are free of your robot, and the book, maybe, I don't know, $20US?

That's one eluva fundraiser! :D

Team 246... most likely to fall over and not work... whoops :p

Re: 639 bot sees action in Iraq
 

Most likely to make overly complicated robot where half the features are scraped during the first competition (a.k.a. the winch of extraordinary irritation)
