Re: Old Man Notices A Thing: Lots of Robot Names

Made me realize something interesting...I'll remember our own team's robots names, but generally refer to other teams robots not by whatever they named it but by *team name - game concept/year*. But if I tried to refer to a robot that I was a mentor for by the game concept - I'd probably have to think longer about it and get mixed up. Usually robot names are referencing a feature of the robot or an inside joke on the team relevant to that year.

The only exception being #printerbot.
