Re: Robot names?
 

We have a whole list! We probably won't be deciding for a while though. We have a lot of names... this year, there's three robots we need to name! (the FRC bot, minibot & our USB hub robot)

:)

Re: Robot names?
 

Most of 176's robots have had to do with our team name, Aces High.

Aces High can be taken two ways. The first representing the flying Aces of WWII, and the second being the poker term Aces High.

Recent robots:

Ace
Ace of Spades
Pokerface (2006, pre-Lady GaGa, I swear :rolleyes: )
The Red Baron
Blackjack


This year, our robot's named Red Baron II.
The robot will carry the theme with red frame pieces and coverings with designs similar to that of the original

The robot will be "Kilroy," as always.

And the minibot will be "Kilboy." :D

Re: Robot names?
 

Our robot is called "A pile of cr@p"

Re: Robot names?
 

The 2009 robot went by the name "Redemption" after our, well, um, apparently the team did put a robot on the field in 2008, contrary to results. Some members called by the name "Mephistopholes" since the 2008 robot was "Dante."

I like looking at our last two years, and this year, as the Redemption Series. The goal of the name is to build the team from the ground up, back to a level of function admiration and respectability.

2010 never was officially christened, but "Ahab" was usually used. We had a pretty killer harpoon kicker (that worked once), and there was some salty language to be had during the sort time it had to be built. It was also a tough, crazy robot. Very overachieving.

2011, our build lead has chosen "Gurren" for the hostbot and "Lagann" for the minibot.
For those who don't know, it comes from the anime Gurren-Lagann, and the reasoning behind its usage can be seen here.

Last years robot started out being named SUE, the Scinario Utilitizing Expert. (Parden my spelling)Somewhere along the line, after we had a huge problem with the drive train, someone renamed it SOO. Same pronunciation, except this time it ment Stationary Object Only. This years is GEORGE, but so far, we can't figure out what it's short for.

I am from Team 313 the Bionic Union and our robots name for 13 years has been Sarbez, it is Zebras spelled backwards since our starting school was the Wayne Memorial High School Zebras. It will and will always be that name till the end of the team.

I'm pushing for Mr. Cringerpants :p

Re: Robot names?
 

We name our robot after someone who has had a big impact on our team. Sometimes its a mentor, sometimes a person who inspires us. This year its named after a former team member who is now an electrical engineer and staunch advocate for the DREAM act. Her name is Dulce and the robot is called Dulces DREAM.

Re: Robot names?
 

We named ours Daedulus and the minibot is Icarus.

Re: Robot names?
 

Since we're sponsored by purdue, our robot is ROWDY 12 and the minibot is PETE.
