I was talking to our programmer who told me that our code was worked out to be 1403 lines. I don't suggest other teams try this, especially if you are in the lower numbers.

I bought gas for $2.22 the night before we went to PARC. I though it was quite a coincidence

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

I did the same thing, and when traffic got bad I was stoped at mile marker 229, 222 and 217 then traffic cleared up.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

1027, your number seems to be stalking me or something, it's everywhere I go. I keep finding myself(or several times, the people in front of me in line) buying things that cost $10.27, I've looked at my watch at 10:27 almost every time it shows up on my watch lately(not intentionally either), and I started my presentation today in English at exactly 10:27. It's a little scary, actually...

2.29 Price of gas in macedon NY the other day. AKA Clarkson robotics.

[I see that number more and more. Kinda worries me]

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

I *really* don't want to see $11.00 for gas!

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

A short time after FLR this year, one of our team members saw gas prices at:
$2.17
$2.29
$2.37 (maybe wrong bout this one, but definitely sure about the other 2)

all at the same gas station, all those teams, btw, wen to FLR, it was freaky.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

#234, our team made thirty or so orders at taco bell to get our number on the reciept. (way home from nats)

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

My Boyscout troop number is 340!!!

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

I saw gas somewhere today and had to take a picture of it, the prices
$2.17
$2.29
$2.54

freaky eh?

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

My school is taking the California Standardized Testing this week, and on the summative mathematics standards exam, there were 71 questions. Question 60 was the hardest one.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

Yes. It's rather funny...I'll be walking down the hall at my school and noting which teams match the numbers. Ex 126 where we host meetings is Gael Force.

716 doesn't come up all that often except in phone numbers and it also happens to be the minimun average you can have (if you're taking 8 classes on a 100 point system) and still make high honor roll at a 90 overall average (it's rounded up).

Also, I see team numbers in the gas prices and area codes.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

Ya, I would say this year I seen 322 just about every where before the Regionals. When I was at work I seen a few scores of 322 a few times ( I work for a Laser Storm Arena in Mt. Morris, Mich.). Lets see went to McDonalds a few times and my total was $3.22, I thought that was Strange in a way, I had a order number of 322 at a taco bell, I would really hate to see gas at $3.22. The day we left to go to Atlanta this year, I was at a store in an airport to buy some things, guess what the total was $3.22. :ahh:

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

Here is something that would be cool to see: someone's actual phone number which combines three FIRST team numbers.

For example: 716-461-1114

and... better yet, have that person be involved in FIRST.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

The irony of this absolutely frightened me yesterday. As I was driving my car back from an athletic club, I was travelling down highway 16 (Bomb Squad) when I glanced at my clock to check the time, 2:34 p.m. (Cyber Blue) and as I looked up, I passed exit #179 (Swamp Thing).

And the whole time, I was wearing my Cyber Blue t-shirt!

Recently I've been using (team name)-th a lot in school. And I just realized that after the bell rings in the afternoon, I go by fire alarm #47, down the stairs, out the door, past bus #47, and then to my bus.

I also instinctively notice any familiar team number now. I regard this as being officially addicted to FIRST.

i was with Anthony (driver of 56) at target hanging out and i buy 3 soft tacos and look at how much the tacos would cost and it came out to be $2.37 i showed him and we were just shocked. cause 237 rocks.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

and better still, have that person be involved with ONE OF THOSE TEAMS.

Well, I think that's true of a lot of phone numbers, at least those with last four digits less than 1700.

716 is the area code for Western New York (I think), i.e. near Buffalo.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

At the chinese restaraunt in the omni center, if you order combo #2 (two sides and fried rice) with a medium coke and pay with a $10 bill, your change will come out to $3.22.

Before leaving for Atlanta last year, I bought a magazine and gum in the Airport and my change was 71 cents. This year at the same airport store, my change came up to $3.31 (one cent off)... craaaaazy how the nats champion is predicted with both of these purchases.

*gasp!* so i was reviewing for a chemistry exam, and the two elements were Phosphorus (P) and Titanium (Ti) and then I got 1450 kj/mol and 1450 was next to us in the pits at Championships! and if you put P and Ti together, you get PiT! well, if you make Ti go backwards...the amazing wonders of FIRST! another team number moment brought to us by chemistry....

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

I was driving to a robotics meeting after work last week, and the truck I was stuck behind was truck #1089. I was on the phone with one of the students on 1089 and we were laughing about it.

Then, when I logged into my other forums there were 1089 new posts since my last visit. XD

What are the chances??

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

Seeing how my husband runs team 234 and I run team 393, I am always trying to find my number. However, when it comes to hotel rooms, there is never a 393, but always a 234! When I look at the clock, I tend to look at it when it is 2:34! THERE IS NO 3:93! In the county next to ours, there is a state road 234! The only thing I can find with my number is a vending machine phone number in Tampa, FL (i have a picture of it!!) where the last three numbers were 393...and the Wendy's restaurant in Greenfield, IN is store number 393.

Trust me...there are a MILLION 234s out there!! :)

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

Hi Libby,
here's a funny one to tell your husband. Since you're feeling "left-out" that there are not too many examples of real-life "393", here's a thought.

I bought a book several years ago titled "The secret language of birthdays". It's a combination of astrology, numerology, tarot, and "people-ology"..those born on your birthday.

So, if I do the numerology on your team name:
3+9+3=15
1+5=6

Six (6) is the devil's number......maybe that's why you and your husband coach separate teams.....ha, ha, ha...Just having some fun with numbers. Keep looking for that elusive "393". Maybe you'l find it in a fortune cookie like all those people recently that won the same PowerBall number.....

And lastly...may the "power of the numbers" be with you and your family during this time in your lives; our thoughts are with you all.....

ADDED:
I went and re-read your "thank you" thread. Want some even weirder "numbers"? Your family's accident occurred on 4/8/2005.
4+8=12
1+2=3....there's lots of good examples of three
a) god, country and FIRST
b) mother, father, children
c) build, compete, win
d) teach, mentor, learn

have a good one....................................

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

I found this while looking online, after being told about it at nationals during the Vex dinner.

1. Pick any three digit number. (ie 123)
2. Reverse that number. (ie 321)
3. Subract the smaller number from the larger number. (ie 321-123 = 198)
4. Reverse the answer. (ie 891)
5. Add that number to the unreversed number. (ie 198 + 981)
6. The answer will be...1089!!!



Also, another random fact. 33^2 = 1089.

Enjoy these little random facts. ^_^

With 1.59 being a low number with a 9 in the cents digit for money, there are often items at fast food restaurants that are $1.59. The most recent thing I bought was a 40oz Slurpee for $1.59.

During my freshman year, gas was around $1.59, and our team kept getting excited about that. Below is a picture taken of one of these from out the bus window on the way back from the Championship. I wish it still cost that much!

As a member of Niagara first, I happened to be in Niagara Falls to see a movie and when I walked into the actual theater I heard "GREER", I assume it was members of 1503. Oddly enough right at the end of the movie there was a clock with the time that read 11:14. I just laughed. Also when we were on the bus to Atlanta a red chevy truck passes us. I looked at the plate on it and it simply read...."1114" thats all that was on the plate.

Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
 

At Chelsea (Team 1502) we REALLY got close (but no cigar) with our
room number. The phone extension numbers at the school equal
(1000 + room number). We meet and build in room 506, so we're
extension 1506, not 1502. (SOOOOO close!)

No way to get them to renumber the rooms either (darn...) so
I guess we're stuck with it... ;)

But I've heard more than one say, "You know, if we'd only registered
just a BIT later..." <chuckle>
