Re: Best Robots of 2006

599- not just because its my team, but we were undefeated in LA besided the final round. We also were able to shoot on the ramp and off the ramp in competition before 986 was able to. We also had an all hand built robot with no machines other than handtools on the thing (school got rid of metal shop). I think we had a great robot this year. Too bad senior prom was the same weekend as Nationals, or we may have gone (3/4 the team was seniors who all had senior-itis and didnt want to miss prom).

986/254 - They did the same things we did, just with shifting gearbox and a cleaner looking machine. Great robots, both in function and looks.

987 - High Rollers were great at Arizona. I was very disappointed when they lost in the finals. Eh, i was disappointed a lot from the results at Arizona, but High Rollers looked great, and definitely on my top favorites of this year.

Triplets - Function and a lot of PR on CD. They worked great, and the compliments about them throughout the competition season were well deserved.

330 - You guys were great in Arizona, great in LA as well. It was a great year being on your alliance in elimination in both places. Hope we team up at competions in the future. You guys always make make great robots. I was a little suprised when i herd that you guys did not get that far at Nationals. But at LA and AZ, you guys ruled, except for the cracked tranny in the finals of LA.

All Team- 6 weeks and a functioning or semi-function robot is a huge accomplishment. I think there are many i also missed from my short list. It was a great year for a lot of teams and seem to me like a very fun game compared to the past (i only have Triple Play to compare it too). I hope everyone had a great time like i did, and hope well for next year.
