Perfect Square Club

You can join this club if your team number is a perfect square. I'll start with my team.

Lol.

Includes us, though.

There are a lot of high-powered members of this club, on second thought. 16, 25, 1024, 1296...

I'd also like to take this time to welcome future member 6400!

Re: Perfect Square Club

I've always wondered if teams with numbers that are mathematically interesting in some way have a higher chance of success in FRC than teams with more random numbers. Perhaps it's just looking for patterns where there aren't any, but lots of powerhouse teams have numbers that are cool or neat in some way (repeating digits, consecutive digits, perfect squares, etc)

Re: Perfect Square Club

At first I thought you were asking about frame perimeters. But, this is cool too.

Noticed we have 2 members of the club out of NYC. 2601 and 1600

Wow, that looks like a very high-powered set of teams! I am actually wondering if this set of teams has a higher average blue banner count than the general population.

Re: Perfect Square Club

How about the zenzizenzic ((n^2)^2) club?
1, 16, 81, 256, the now defunct 625 (it's hard to survive in AK), 1296, 2401 (ND might as well be AK), and 4096

Next year we will welcome the newest member, 6561, who will also be a member of the even more exclusive zenzizenzizenzic ((n^2)^2)^2) club including only 1 and 256 so far.

Re: Perfect Square Club

On one of our game shirts it had 36^2 on the sleeve.

We are also 6^4 which is cool.

Re: Perfect Square Club

Shout out to teams 1, 3, 7, 21, 31, 49, 93, 147, 217, 651, and 1519, all of whom are divisors to team 4557!

EDIT:
I decided to look them up and find their team names:
The Juggernauts (1)
Team007 (7)
ComBBat (21)
Prime Movers (31)
Robotic Knights (49)
NEW Apple Corps (93)
Deep Thunder (147)
Thunder Chickens (217)
Yo Bot (651)
Mechanical Mayhem (1519)

Team 3 doesn't exist, apparently.
