Re: Team Names – How?

Oh Wow... I'd think there would be all sorts of "knight" puns possible for robot names with that team name!

Just off the top of the noggin':
- Daze'n (Daze'n Knight)
- Silent Knight (it doesn't speak, you see...)
- Over Knight (it's the top bot...)
- The Knight Bus (for all you Harry Potter fans - it dashes, and stops suddently)

A sample of various punnish "Knights of the FIRST table":
Cir Cuit: An electrical Knight
Cir Culation: A library or spinning Knight
Ser Pent: Snake Knight (for a snake-like robot design)
or spelling it the other way:
Circus: A swearing Knight
...etc...

I'm sure you can come up with something, with a bit of warped thought!
... and if not, warped thinking is what your team's Engineers are for!

(And remember - One Grocer equals 144 Knights...)

Good luck!
