2004 Robot Rodeo

[robot180]

I can't wait to get started for next year, and I didn't see any threads on this yet. I was wondering if any team volunteered to host the 2004 Robot Rodeo and if there will be one. Unless I missed something, I guess this can be the official Robot Rodeo discussion thread.

[Andrew Rudolph]

Yes there will be one. Team 1083 and Team 1068 are co-hosting this year. go to http://www.team-emoticons.com and click on the rodeo link i believe the date has been picked and registration will eb opening up soon. Check back for more info later.

I think that the rodeo is great for our team. It gives the rookies a chance to see how a competition works before just jumping into build season. However, it is hard for them since they don't know much about the robot from the year before, since they weren't around while it was built. This should be a great competition.

yes Robot Rodeo! hopefully we see some new prototypes there before the season starts again in january

[Spammy Badame]

oh!! I'm soo excited!!! I actually get to go to the rodeo this year!! This is gonna be my third year in robotics, and the first two years i had band competitions the exact same day as the robot rodeo. but this year i get to go, and i don't even have a football game to go to the night before cuz it's away and we play boynton beach... woo hoo!! okay, sorry, i'm calm now...


robot rodeo... here i come!!!!

The Rodeo last year at University High School is where I got bit by the robotics bug. I have been absolutely hooked ever since. My team (err, both of them) will be attending this year. I am hoping that 1390's bot... will be running by then...cough. We had problems at UCF, and things haven't gotten much better since. We all plan to be working by October 23rd, though.

By the way, anyone in the area can check my AIM profile to see other upcoming events for robotics. AIM: Bonzack


Other good news, I dont have to miss any seriously important OU football games while at the rodeo! woo hoo!!

Hey, would anyone be up for Fantasy First for the Robot Rodeo?

I am also thinking about doing it for my new team next year.... have everyone do it (make some trophy out of an old bust motor or caster perhaps). Could be a way for my team to research other teams to get them used to scouting? ideas?

thanks, I plan on showing the newcomers the sigmacat website, and massive archive of videos from Atlanta and the UCF Regional. How possible would it be to list the team numbers in each video somewhere? regardless, I can't wait to see the FL robots in action again.

Well the team numbers are listed for for the Archimieds Divisions of the 2004 Champs on scoutingdb.circuitrunners.com and videos avaibe at soap.circuitrunners.com. The match list w/ team numbers isnt directly avalible (you search for a team and then it displays the matches they were in and then you pick which match to view in greater detail), but I can fix it so that it will print out all matches w/ team numbers if you want. It will be only for Archimedes, but at least its something. Let me know...
