Go to Post There's "FIRST the organization" and then there's "FIRST the vision for the future through a set of ideals". I've grown somewhat skeptical of the former in recent years, but, after 10 years, I'd still throw myself in front of a bus for the latter. - Rich Kressly [more]

Robot Names
This year our team is having some trouble naming our 'bot, so I go to the members of the Chief Delphi Forums for help. We've narrowed it down to four choices.

Your comments and suggestions please.

Re: Robot Names
I still think that Shazbot is the coolest name out there.

However, greencactus3, From what you posted I think that NometBot would be a cool name. ^_^

Re: Robot Names
Decide what your team stands for , eg, as systemetric, we stand for metric tools and things as w euse metric in the UK whilst you americans use imperial, so thats how we got our name
