Re: teams to look for this year
Here is my theory for which teams to watch. First Figure out the binary representation of the team number.
Example 254 011111110 256 100000000 Then sum the number of digits to get a indication of the strength of the team. It will probably be as accurate as anything else in predicting how teams will do this year. |
Re: teams to look for this year
Look for team 1538 (Fist Full of Motors)... We have some great projects we're working on

Re: teams to look for this year
look out for team 1661. Word on the street is they have an average team IQ of 170!

And if binary is the answer, then look out for team 1023 (1111111111) |

Re: teams to look for this year
Wow! Were to begin. Lots of good robotics coming to my regionals in Fl and Sc and Nat's all the teams are really good. You have to look at the teams like 469,494,111,45,47,67,71those guys are all very good veterans. But there are a few really rising stars if u will that are 2nd and third years teams.1241,1345,945 I can go on and on competition is what makes FIRST great. Thanks everyone for doing your best and challenge yourselves as well as the other teams. Oby the way if anyone whats too look into team 1251. Were kinda in uncharted waters for just a second year team. We have helped veteran teams and rookies teams get started and sustain there programs already. We also did fairly well last year for rookies.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL :ahh: DREW 1251 THE TECH TIGERS im me at dizzie 783 |

Re: teams to look for this year
It is really hard to pick any individual teams yet.
But I believe that the teams with the highest reliability and have experience in drive trains, and arms will be the top contenders. Teams with good autonomous modes will also fair better than others. Here is my list that I believe that will do well this year. This is in no particular order. 69, 71, 60&254, 469, 494, 173, 177, 175, 229, 236, 237, 716, 571, 47,45,980,1350 & others |
Re: teams to look for this year
I only glanced through all the responses but I'm surprised I didn't see more posts on 222. They came reaaaallll close to beating us in chesapeake and the only reason they didn't win at another regional was another narrow loss. We ended up letting them down at the championship but they never once blamed us.Another team to watch out for is whoever beat 222 and 1405 and the other team in the aliance at the 'ship in Galileo. And here we thought we'd be invincible.

Re: teams to look for this year
111 posts.
seriously, these kinds of threads are the kinds I don't belive belong on CD. All that goes on is either: 1. tooting your own horn 2. tooting a friends' horn 3. tooting a dynasty's horn. all of us are on a level standing ground once Dean and Woody announce the game- yes, there are some teams that stand out every year, and thats exactly why i dislike these here threads- those team numbers are hyped and overhyped. Once everyone reveals a teaser, then sure, post away- but until then ithere's really no point in guessing which teams are gonna hit it big this year. whats really sad is the same threads arise every year. It's a lot like "high school" really- popularity. and sorry if i offended anyone, I'm just letting out some observations I've had for a while. |

Threads like this can be a very positive tool towards improving your team, if you stop to think about what qualities make a particular team excellent or even just noticable. Good luck to everyone in finishing your Bots this week!!! |

Re: teams to look for this year
At the Colorado scrimmage (February 19), three teams out of the eight that attended really stood out in my mind.
The first is team number 159. Their robot is all that you would expect from a team with their experience and more. Of the eight teams attending, this robot was the first of only two who capped the center tetra. The second is #1408 (I think) from Jefferson. Their robot uses a design which flips the tetra onto the goal. Many teams said that their design was a fluke and would never stand up in real competition, but nuts to them, they did well. They were the highest scoring team of the whole lot. And finally, my own team, 1562. We were the other team to cap the center tetra, and though our robot is falling apart day by day, we still hang on for the ride. |
Re: teams to look for this year
While you are looking keep an eye out for 56 Robbe Extreme.
They are fast, accurate and have a great drive team. They were at our scrimmage yesterday and the drivers of 56, 1089 and 25 had a stackoff on the center goal. We ended at nine and could have gone higher if the ceiling was higher and there were more tetras. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: NJ is going to be THE regional this year....... WC :cool: :cool: |
Re: teams to look for this year
