 Now, our team did meet, but there wasn't much inspiring going on. Unless you call pegging me with more darn poof balls exciting. - Paul Copioli [more] |

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
Our robot this year is "The Killer Rabbot.". If you are watching Curie division at all, it will be easy to figure out which robot it is. Look for the rabbit with sharp pointy teeth!

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
2011: IAH (Insert Acronym Here) was named as an afterthought, but after the season we renamed it EOD (Explosive Outerwear Dispenser) as a t-shirt cannon, but we mostly call it the paradebot.
2012: BEC (Ball Ejector Catapult) was fittingly named, and is one syllable as opposed to IAH's three. 2013: HEX doesn't have an acronym. There's a huge hexagon on our turret, so we named it Hex, and we officially have a name pattern.

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
Lol, our team's robot names always come about rather spontaneously and just happen to stick. Last year our robot was named Frank for no apparent reason. Personally, I love the name. This year, the robot was named Odessa. No idea why. It just happens, although everybody has fun with it afterward trying to rename it.

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
We have a long complex naming process for our robot involving nominations then an initial voting period then winnowing it down to two choices before we hold a final vote. It usually happens when we take the robot from our shop to a sponsor in week 5 to get it weighed precisely for the first time. We've broken the patter in the last few years but we try to name it something to do with red. For reference:
In general, we try to name it after some recognizable feature of the robot or just a cool name. 2007: Red Rover (cool name) 2008: Red Dragon (cool name) 2009: Red Hurricane (helix was kinda like a hurricane) 2010: The Commander (named after a mentor who was moving away nickname) 2011: Duck 'n Cover (robot looked like a duck) 2012: Dr. Swoosh (like Dr. Suess but basketball) 2013: Red Raptor (back to the roots of red; robot has a tall arm)

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
Ummm... Our team's robot doesn't have a name. You know what, as currently the only member of this team. I will call it... Hal!

Re: Does your teams robot have an offical name?
Our robot is named Reptar, because of its arms (climbing mechanism).
