We also have some members from Xavier, which is a private school we just havent found a good way to incorporate them into our name yet. And our Robot name is Tobor, which is robot backwards. I'm not sure how that was come up with, maybe someone else from my team could answer that all I know is all of our robots have been named Tobor. Tobor I, Tobor II, Tobor III, Tobor IV and this year we're working on Tobor V.

Yea, I believe the second year (TOBOR I) one of our students was just messing around and said "Hey! We sould call it TOBOR! That's 'ROBOT' spelled backwards!" (Duh!) Every year after that we've kept the name and added a roman numeral... The first year our team was formed, we were at a different Appleton HS and the robot's name from that year is unkown. So yea!
That's my story 'n I'm sticking to it!
