2001- NYC Regionals Team 47 CD's robot was pretty cool. its omni directional drive capability was no match for some robots which took for ever to do a 360 turn. All though its grabbing mechanism wasn't all that strong if i remember correctly; it always got the job done.

Another robot I admire is of course my teams Team 522 the RoboWizards and their tank like robot WILMA. Wilmas original goal during the 2001 season was to help gain maximum points but unfortunately WILMA was only good for being a tow truck and to be a very successful helper bot - {balancing, bringing one goal to a dual goal robot, limbowing etc - whatever a tiny robot could do

We won the 2001 Play of the day award for prety much doing the following tasks [push disabled robot into endzone, assist in balancing the ramp, remove one of the 1 point balls from underneath the ramp, limbowing around the other side to end up in the end zone with one robot on the bridge, 3 in the endzone and a lot of happy team members]


2002 I liked Rages Bot, Buzz's Bot because of their speed at the beginning of each match and their ability to pick up mass amount of balls.

2002 unfortunately our robot DOROTHY was only good for defensive blocking and controlling 2 goals and even then we kinda didn't do so well
