For the groupies/fans, of course.

Sneaking a little humor into the list is probably a good idea.

Re: Need help: reasons to join a robotics team (words and phrases)

I love all these. Some other ideas are:
  • goats
  • duct tape comes in many colors
  • possibility of taking over the world someday
  • zip ties
  • pizza for every meal
  • more duct tape
  • flame throwers
  • possibility of explosions at each meeting
  • duct tape (need I say more?)

Does anyone have any more funny ones?

Re: Need help: reasons to join a robotics team (words and phrases)

Here's some older ones:

"The Super Bowl of Smarts"
"The Hardest Fun You'll Ever Have"
"The ONLY Sport Where Everyone Can Turn Pro"


One or two of these were official FIRST lines back a "few" years ago.

A+ reasons right there

the thing that kept me hooked in robotics was being able to observe the brilliance of others (I mean, I got to see simbot sideswipe... UP CLOSE). So, "solving real challenges brilliantly" ?

or alternatively, "the one place where you can seem like a good dancer," and "gaining early support of our future robot overlords" those are too long, but I am not a concise person
