Re: Interesting team names

The year the team started the students voted on "Augustus Roboticus Maximus" for the name of the robot. This was dutifuly stenciled on the side of the robot. During the first comp the robot was WAY over weight. After a drastic weight reduction just about the only letering left that was contiguous was "GUS". GUS remains our name today.

ps: Augusts Roboticus Maximus was REAL dificult to fit into a chant!!!!!!!!!
pps: Team 1071 MAX was a spin off from us and they chose the name to show there allegiance to GUS (from Maximus).
