Re: RIP in Peace Dozer

I made the classic "Oh-oh" noise when this year's robot crumbled in the animation.
Didn't someone build him in real life?

Re: RIP in Peace Dozer

I don't like the realisticness of the animation. I'm can deal with Dave not wanting to do it anymore, I can survive without the iconic dozer bot or bubbler bot, but I don't think an animation to describe the game should be so realistic. I enjoyed suspending belief when looking at the crazy impossible robots that helped show games in the past.

Part of the nice thing about those ridiculous robots is that they showed practically impossible ways to play the game (aside from maybe dozer), eliminating idea suggestions. I'n not remotely against helping teams, but I think it presented slightly more of a challenge that there were no realistic suggestions as to how to actually do anything on the field.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Re: RIP in Peace Dozer

Unfortunately the rules prohibited Plowie's greatest potential in this game.
Pushing all the crates into one side of the field so nothing can move over there.

I have this picture of a field of crates and robots that can't escape

Maybe he's just dozing somewhere?

Re: RIP in Peace Dozer

there was another robot that had a similar purpose to dozers, but it was on the red alliance and had no plow.

Re: RIP in Peace Dozer

I honestly strongly disliked the animation this year. I liked the old style so much more. RIP Dozer. Yes folks. It's Dozer. Not Plowie.
