Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
Team 166 kind of had a history of naming the robots "Tommy Hawk 1-5" every couple of years. Tommy Hawk being a play on words refering to the high school mascot, The Tomahawk.
We kind of grew out of that and haven't used it since 2004.
2005 - OTIS because of the style of our elevator.
2006 - Scorpio because of our shooter design.
2007 - Gemini because it was our first year building two robots.
2008 - Atlas because of the size of the trackball.
I really would have liked to continue the Zodiac theme with Aries because of our gripper design, but the team voted on Atlas for our 2008 'bot.
The names are only really used when refering to past years. Right now, and until we get to next year, the robot will be called "the robot". We start calling it by it's intended name when we build a new robot.
