The MOEstix are gone, and they are being used in a number of different manners. Some are being given to winners of the "Where's GizMOE today?" contest, and others were given out at the NJ Regional for a Team Spirit award. Not to be discouraged though, we have designed "MOE wobblies", which create a low rumbling thunderous sound which is more directional than the MOEstix used to be. Some may consider this to be our "Third Order of Obnoxiousness" (shirts, stix, wobblies), we just see it as another extension of our Team Spirit.

Anyone else notice how much energy the competitions have lost because there isn't any noise? In five years of attending events I've never heard the announcers (at competition or on the webcasts) keep encouraging the crowds to the extent they have this year.

This one is pretty cool!

The Dukes' shirts are pretty cool this year. Between them and the crowns and the cool signage on our robot, we picked up the Imagery Award at the AZ Regional event this year.

Check them out!

The Truck Town Thunder Team (68) looked great in Colorado.

I think it's always great to see a team with "costumes" instead of uniforms.

The Duct Tape Bandits have already been mentioned, but the CyberKnights(I think?) dress up in medevial clothes, which is pretty cool.

I also like seeing the Techno Wizards in their pointy hats and capes. And I definitely love how their entire drive team does the "wizard" hand motion when their team is announced. I was cracking up the first time I saw that, I thought it was great. =)

It doesn't matter...they just look cool.

Not only that but their ties with their logos embroidered in them really add to that.

The good thing about being as bright as we are is its always easy to find your teammates.

But I have to give my vote to TJ2 because with tie dye really looked cool at the NJ regional.

269 has made a ton of noise at the competitions this year!! They have these really loud noisemakers that swing around ... so loud. If you're near Cooney Quest at Nationals, don't stand too close -- you won't be able to hear for the rest of the day!!!

Speaking of 269 - their uniforms are pretty cool. This year's bowling shirts rock! Of course, there's Ricky Q's traditional polo. But no matter which shirt the members of 269 are wearing, the purple and yellow always stands out!

I'm always going to love the wildstang shirts... I think I like this years best of the last few, too.

Yeah...I like MOEs uniforms a lot.

And they are really bright.

When we got to the Radisson(don't get me started) last year at Houston they were the first thing I noticed..............then I saw the tanker truck that was on fire on the side of the highway.

not to be shamelessly promoting my own team (ok, maybe a little) but i like 1089. we wear our silver and black jerseys with black pants. our drive team wears silver capes, and paints their face half black and half silver (with 1089 written in the contrasting color across). also, we recently added glow sticks to our uniforms, so we have one on each wrist and a necklace. i guess you could say we really stand out now.

also, i like 522. they may just have purple t-shirts, but they spice it up with wizard hats and capes, and silver glitter galore.

anyway, my vote goes to 1086, this year anyway...

Howdy! I am from team 1086, the Pirates from Deep Run HS. On behalf of my team, I would like to thank you very much for that. Being a rookie team (techincally is our second year...but we dont talk about last year) is hard, but when you have great people like you cheering you on, you realize that you really are doing a good job. It was difficult to come up with a new image in the robotics competition dominated by well established teams...so it was very nice to hear that from you. And this goes for all ya'll too, your words encourage team spirit and pride. You critisizm is not stinging either...I looked up my team number expecting all these posts about our rookie year, but I did not find a single negative thing. The critism is constructive, and seems to only encourage. I am new to CD but I have found great people who are taking gracious professionalism up and beyond my concept of meaning. Thank you again.

C'mon my team 269 we got bowling shirts what is better then that.

Team 861 had these really cute poodle skirts for thier girls to go with their "50's" theme. I *really* loved watching the announcer in Galileo at Nats last year and at Arizona regional this year put them on for each of our matches. (Actually, in arizona the referees came up with a new penalty: fashion violation. They managed to come up with a pink flag to launch on to the field. Extremely humorous.)

And, of course, the teams at Los Angeles might have noticed a particularly cute girl wandering around the pits with a flag on saturday. One with facial hair and sneakers. Yup, that was me. Call out to anyone who took pictures: I'd really like to see them! I didn't have a camera.

(Just so anyone who wasn't there knows: it was our practical joke that's been two years in the making. Myself and the senior girl on the team switched uniforms for the day. She got to wear the awesome flame pants, while I got the cute skirt. And pigtails. And she dragged me into the stands for makeup. I no longer have any shame. Or dignity. )
