I was with Danny too that day when we watched SVR. You guys looked very good for a second year team. Not to mentor that your coach(?) has an Afro. Afro Alliance on Archimedes?

I'd say 2024 is a team on the top of my sleeper list as well. Other teams I'd include would be 27, 1261, and 816.

Has anyone ever seen our shirts and whats on the back? If so my dad was wondering if anyone out there could attempt to draw it on his face. I volunteered but he wouldnt take it. He knows I can't draw for anything.

Also, the company we got the beach balls from said there is no way we could have them by tuesday when we leave, so its back down to 60.

You folks are too much fun! We'll be sure to drop off a box of macs to Danny and Wendy (chocolate macs and bacon??) but can't guarantee the rest..I think they're limiting us to one bag each now on the airlines??? Just looking at the posts I have to agree this has got to be the biggest collection of good fun teams all on Archimedes! We can't wait to meet up on the field. we have a small team that's a little whacky, ok a lot, but very spirited. We had our whole alliance wearing leis and doing the haka with us in SVR and Hawaii during the elimination rounds. Hopefully we'll be good enough to be able to do the same in Archimedes. So many are coming in with killer records. We'll see you all soon....hopefully it will be warm for us in Atlanta! We're used to Highs in the low 80's and lows in the mid 70's all year round although we do get snow on Mauna Kea! aloha!

Hm, you guys seemed to be one of the most spirited so far. Tasty chocolate, spirtied teams, good robots, and new friends. What else could you ask for in life? haha.

The first time I read this, I saw the last word as Hula. Maybe a contest to get those macadamia nuts? :cool:

Clearly it says Macs for Me and Wendy. No contest needed. But you know sharing is always good.

speaking of the Hula....during the Innagural Hawaii regional this year we had an unbelievable free Luau Friday night with lomi lomi salmon, Kalua pig, and Poi. Many teams, including 25 from Jersey, were called up on stage to do the Hula. I'm sure there are blackmail photo's out there somewhere! Someone from team Pink won a poi chugging contest. It was an unreal regional even for the teams from here so if you guys can make it out here this far next year you'll get to do plenty of Hula! We've been asking if the Luau will be a regular part of the event, its worth the price over here alone.
Although we have several students with Hawaiian Ancestry I'm not sure if any of them will be doing the Hula in Atlanta?? We will have our Hula skirts on so we'll see.....

I'd actually put 27 as one of the top dogs in our division. The other 2, yes.
I'll throw in there 1218, not really a sleeper but 357 Royal Assault, 2024, 49, 1379.

I actually really like this division because in all honesty, anyone could take the win.

edit:27's drivers just need a little more practice maneuvering around other robots. Their roller and shooter system is fast at hurdling; however, their drivers are not. This imbalance is what is throwing them off. I highly suggest that they step up their game at driving and paying attention to the other robots on field to stay on top of this division. Even so, I'm still pulling for them to take home the win. Good luck to them :)
