Re: Your Best Robot

Gloria Machina, 675's '07 bot.

Last year was really good and the best until now. Cthulhu worked great, and scored okay.

This year, we upped the ante.

Only one team we encountered could push us ('grats to 1662 -- Raptor Force Engineering), but aside from that, we were really good.

Tonight, Gloria saw some more... Family-oriented action. We had a cake Auction to raise money for robotics, and we drove the cakes on our competition robot, like last year. Take that, PR Robots!

Tomorrow, Gloria will be being driven around at a Lego Robotics event. =D



Anywho, it's a good, robust, yet simple bot that meets all FIRST guidelines almost perfectly, performs a valuable game strategy, and was built well.

Expect us to be pulling something like an anvil soon (since getting cars moving isn't that impressive).
