New Harmony HS

[Barry Bonzack]

Alright, new question. Assuming I get this team off the ground, make it official, and get a team number, is it possible to change my username without starting a new account? should I change it from bonzack1390 to bonzack1### (new number) or just bonzack, or even at all? should my location be where the team is (Harmony) or where my house is (St. Cloud)? Am I getting off topic?

on an even more off topic note.... 50 posts, w00t!

To change user names all you have to do is PM Brandon Martus. When you decide your new user name just PM him with it and he will change it. It's against forum rules to create two or more accounts. As for location I don't think it's a big deal but I believe most people put thier team's location. It's up to you and no one will hold it against you.

It's official, we exist!!! Today marks the day that Harmony High got its team number and voted on a team name. We are now Team 1604 and signed up for the Peachtree Regional (subject to change). One of the greatest challenges for our team faced this year, as individuals and as an upstarting team, were the hurricane that plagued Our beloved state. I am happy to say every one of us and our community is bouncing back from these distastes, and have decided to call ourselves The Harmony Hurricanes in memory of this year from our ability to overcome challenges. Lastly, I checked today on how we are doing funds wise, and our very gracious administration is backing us, and allocating the funds for our venture, despite damages to the school from the hurricanes.

So far this year, we have only had 3 meetings, but have a Name, a Number, an Identity, and have competed in the Robot Rodeo. Not a bad start, now lets hope for a great build season.

WE EXIST!

Barry - Great to hear and see you are of the ground. Even though you are an OU fan I won't hold that against you or your team (BEDLAM MATTERS & and it is tomorrow) Holler with anything you need and we will try to do what we can do.

Congrats Barry, this is like so awesome.
Hey, if you ever need help with programming or anything else, Tatsu is right here dude, just ask. Our team did good in our rookie year, our trick was to keep it simple, so, as an advice, keep it as simple as you can (also reliable, dont forget that, hehehe, even though it will be hard to build a robot underwater , hehehe). We also had our budget really tight this year, but we only spent like 500 dollars over the standard fee , but that was because it was our second year, and we already had tools bought and stuff, and our team it's like tiny . So just relax, you have enough spirit to take your team real far.
PS: Am still waiting for the pic with the drill in my nose , hehehe.

About the mapquest thing:
My address, no matter where you go on the internet, is screwed up. It's like I live in the black hole of non-existence. For those of you who have seen the movie "Terminal" with Tom Hanks, I live "in a crack in the system"

Both of my teams voted today to merge into one team under the 1390 flag. I believe this is the best for the continuation of robotics in Harmony, and will make it easier for both schools to sustain one team. Go 1390.

Glad to see that things are rolling onward one way or another.

Wow... I already have a shirt with a retired team number. Yay.

I heard some rumors about this before, and its a good thing that the two schools have been brought back together again.

[Pat Arnold]

All the best as you morph both schools into 1390. With double the resources you'll have plenty of people cheering on your team....but since I got into the habit with 1604 in GA, I'll continue to loudly root for this Harmony/St. Cloud team.

Yay, now I won't have to instruct team 716 to cheer for both the Harmony Hurricanes and WELETHEDOGSOUT. Maybe next year they won't look so confused when I hand them those little hurricane flags!

And now I can say that I do have a shirt from a retired team. It's my favorite sleeping shirt, Barry!

Good luck with the coming year!

Like I said Barry.. no more umbrella hats but hats with ears. You still will continue to shock people that you acutally do have hair under all those hats.
just teasing anyways good luck to you and the team! Keep up the good work like you all seem to always do with in your community.
