His name is Dozer!

This just made me think... If dozer makes a return appearance next year, (we can all dream, right?) do we start calling him "zombie dozer"? "Must... Eat.... RoboRios!"

Dozer gets quite offended when he is confused with Plowie. He then goes off and sulks in the corner for the entire afternoon, and it takes an enormous amount of coaxing to get him to settle down and play nicely with the other construction equipment. So please, for the sake of small blue bulldozers everywhere, let's put an end to this Dozer/Plowie confusion, and just use his proper name.

That explains why the animation wasn't up to the usual standards last year.

The OP sent Dozer into a sulk, so he wouldn't come out to play.

I don't what's worse, calling cylinders pistons or calling Dozer Plowie.

Did no one notice the Woodie Flowers wallpaper? I know what my new screen saver is going to be.

That would be yours truly. I do a bit of graphic design in my spare time

FYI, The FIRST Logo wallpaper on the site is in violation of FIRST's Branding and Design Standards guide, specifically page 11's rules about changing colors and putting atop distracting backgrounds.

When it was posted to the FRC subreddit, I discussed these violations with the original artist.

Also, it's Dozer, not Plowie
