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

That's a fantastic design!
I would say put more hashtags or remove the one there is to preserve a kind of homogenity. "Pizza!" looks like "Pizzd".
Also- "Swumming"?

the hashtag kinda makes omgrobots work... seems weird without it. and yes, a lot of the words that have an "a" as the last or second to last letter look like "d"s instead

Now I am hungry for corn dogs. Where are the free corn dogs when you need them?
Just wondering, what font did you use for that?

Pokemon font!

We are changing our name to Team Rocket, based on the comedy relief villains in Pokemon. It's to connect more with our school (mascot is the Rockets) while having a touch of the robotics culture. Everyone has liked it so far. We'll probably make the "R" on the front more of an outline next printing.

Team 20 is The Rocketeers, but at 2013 River Rage (an off-season competition), we had much of the team dressed with white shirts and red R's as "Team Rocket". For selecting our second partner, our field representative and our first pick's field representative (151) read off the entire Team Rocket chant in order to select 190.

If this isn't already a part of your branding plan, it should be because it was fantastic, and with a little extra effort (not spray painted red R's on white t-shirts and more enthusiasm on the field), it could be legendary.
