Re: Scary Bots

I had a team tell me today that my team's robot was scary for two reasons:

Good on it's own.

and our ball pickup makes noises you typically hear in the black room of a haunted house at 3:00 am.

I took both as compliments.

Re: Scary Bots

Now that was a hit. Looks like that Gif Bot lost its pants...or there was something under it all the way there...5 speed overdrive...sarted 2 fields over. Did they both actually live? Now we know where yesterdays rule came from...A ref's. true nightmare come true.

Me too, I think he was trying to link to email attachments or something.

But I saw that baby up close in Milwaukee, and it's really something.

2481 is my nomination for most "scary awesome" in 2014.

They won in Wisconsin, with good reason.

I was about to mention them, you beat me to it! Their use of swerve, their fantastic pickup mechanism, and their accurate shooting made them by far my favorite robot at the Wisconsin regional.
