As much as ˇ§jaws will dropˇ¨ statement can do, they are really not useful. Not just they are bad when your robot doesnˇ¦t match your words (which I doubt, but accidents do happen), but they are also misleading for other teams. This year it is particularly important that solid facts are shown to other teams rather then what you think about the robot.

Just as suggestions, you might want to tell about what the robot can actually do when time comes, maybe even include data or numbers of your robot. For example those videos are great way to show how your robot works, and they are way stronger than words. (Even though I canˇ¦t get them working)

I am not saying you are not truthful when you shout out ˇ§jaws will dropˇ¨ statements, but those statements tends to seem to be unclear and thoughtlessness. This year everyone should have really clear and concise communication in order to achieve max. efficiency when working with each other.

I know that the TechnoKat will always have a superb quality in the robot. I will never think otherwise. Just the reputation alone is going to tell the people that your robot is going to be best of the best.
