I'm sure it follows a theme, but I have no idea what that theme could be.
I can guess the theme of 2008 and 2009

Like you guys, our robot names are also quite strange.

2009: Bison 1 (Team name was "Bionic Bison" at the time)
2010: Officially Bison 2, but no one calls it that. I usually call it "Power of H".
2011: Gene (KISS, get it?)
2012: Filibuster (Thanks, Jack.)

We have a strong candidate for our 2013 robot name that we will reveal once we're certain it makes sense with our design.
