Only 5 more days until we show Atlanta how spirited Archimedes is! Anyone excited. :cool:

I think this thread needs more spirit; how else are we going to beat the Curie and Newton post count?

Alright everyone, reasons why Archimedes was the best scientist...go!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

...because his nickname was "Archie?"

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Because his name is used to represent one of the best divisions in Atlanta. ;) There are a ton of good robots down there! :D


He made the Archimedes Screw. Used a lot in 2006 and 2009!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Hey guys

I was just doing a little pre scouting and when I tried to find pictures on The Blue Alliance I realized that many teams did not have a photo posted.

I was hoping that maybe we could post pictures of all the robots or if someone knew a place with more pictures and could show me the way.


Any help would be great.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

sorry if this is a dumb question, but I can't find this information anywhere!

Does anybody have the link for the championship webcast (specifically the Archimedes field)? I know NASA usually does it, but I can only find the links to this year's archived footage on their site.

Picture taken from our pep rally :D Obviously the first bot is a little more cleaned up.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Archimedes looks like a lot of fun but if I'm on another field I will be sure and drop by to tell the refs to look for C-clamps on the field after you play! Good luck! Can't wait to see the new stuff!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Bam!



There ya go Driven. If you need more explanation about it just PM me.

Edit: Sorry it's sideways. I tried rotating it in paint and it still uploaded like that.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

On behalf of team 1241, joining as a late entry we are excited to be in the Archimedes Division and can't wait till Atlanta!

P.S If you started using the scouting sheets by using the list off of UsFirst you might not have caught our team cause it haden't been updated till recently. Just a heads up and Good Luck to all teams!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Thanks for all of the quick response on the pictures.

And to team 1241, on behalf of the rest of the Archimedes division we are pleased to have you in our division.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Yup! Can't wait! My first time at the championship!! LETS GOO ARCHIMEDESS!!

And thank you Drivencrazy!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Here's 176's robot in DC. Sorry it's a bit blurry. The only clear picture has the robot a lot smaller and in darker lighting :/

We're using a 6 wheel articulating drive driven by 4 CIMs on the AM Toughboxes, a hanging mechanism on a winch with a dog gear, and a spring loaded kicker pulled back by a window motor.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

!583 is excited to be on Archimedes

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

I made that call, thank you very much!

But I'll let you like Cowboy Ref, him being the favorite MI ref who will be in Atlanta.
