In the end-of-the-year tradition, this week things shift to video:

The deadline for this week's contest is (theoretically) Friday at midnight EDT.

Go!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

I have good news and bad news.
The good news is we made weight!
The bad news is we can't make a manipulator.
So that means we're gonna have to poke the tubes onto the rack.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Ah-CHOOOO!

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhh oh never mind...

(even the robot is feeling the stress of the 6 weeks build)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

How does the saying go? "Measure once, cut twice" or "Measure twice, cut once"? Oops.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

"Even the robots are doing the wave in celebration of EddieMcD's year-three Caption Contest victory."

<not entry>And with that self-glorifying pity-point, I win! :D I'd like to thank the academy, any godlike entities that may have helped, any demonic entities to whom I may or may not have sacrificed a few goats to, and all my fans who have been cheering me on all year. And Billfred, your check is in the mail. :p

Also, congrats to Wayne for clinching at least the bronze medal. :) Who will take the third podium position? Three people are within 4 points of each other for that honor. It should be exciting.</not entry>

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Robot: "I swear, I can be just like that beer-throwing robot on Letterman! Here, watch...."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

"Who wired this thing? Everytime I try to drive forward the arm goes up!!!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Mentor: Our manipulator is way behind schedule. Any suggestions on how to get tubes on using this?
Student: TREBUCHET!!!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

"OK, now make it wave bye-bye..."

In Mike-is-really-bored tradition, things shift to video* as well:

*Granted, this "video" is two frames. It was also created using Paint.Net and the first result on google for "gif maker".

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Even if the robot isn't successful in FRC events, it will win countless stuffed animals playing Hi-Striker on its summer carnival and fair tour. How do you think Koko Ed got the one on his head?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

"Note to Self: Don't ask the team to make a you fly swatter, just buy one yourself"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

The students had no idea how smart their robot really was. As the freshmen asked questions, it raised its hand to answer. Unfortunately, everyone thought it was just a faulty autonomous.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Ok which noob are we shipping with the robot to finish the arm?:yikes:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #156

Well coach, even if we can't make an end effector in time, it'll still be one heck of a double barreled spud gun!
