Name our Battle bot
 

so Alex and i are building a battle bot this summer and as the registration date is here we need a name for the bot. since we are still in construction we don;t have pictures to post but the robot is basically a tetrahedron with a flipper on each side.

we are looking for a name that will strike fear in to our opponents :p

there might be a t-shirt prize for the person who nominates the selected name

Re: Name our Battle bot
 

Well, there's the simple and elegant names, such as simply going by "pwned" for example.

If that doesn't work, you might as well make it a paragraph. "So one time we built this robot and we made it a tetrahedron and made it flip stuff and people were all like 'what's a tetrahedron?' and we were all like 'it's a pyramid made of four triangles, yo!' and they were all like 'word.'"

Re: Name our Battle bot
 

thanks everyone who gave us name ideas. but it is last call for them tonight. we will have to choose a name by tonight so that we can register first thing tomorrow with our col robot name and out team name - Midnight Invention.

Re: Name our Battle bot
 

Gah.. you had a team name all this time and you didn't share it. Well, that helps choose some non shape related names for the bot.

How about Moonlight Marauder?

or with the whole flipping theme,

High Noon's flip-side.

or with the Invention name theme:

Doodad of Doom.
Gizmo of Gloom.
