If you'd please step aside, that would make us smile."
I love it. I think this has the potential of being much less irritating, but without killing the fun some teams seem to get out from the yelling. Perhaps teams could try to come up with their own variation on this.

Soft robot,
Warm robot,
Little ball of wire.
Happy robot,
Sleepy robot,
Whurr, whurr, whurr.
