[greencactus3]

how far are teams in their build or planning of their robots? us, team 23 north farmington has been working busily, with no delays, going right on schedule.... which gets created as we go along... but yea. wondering how teams are faring with the new game, bigger box.... any hints from any team on what they plan to do? how they might do it?
well. our team's hint would be...... its gonna be sweeet

Hey 23, i think we were teamed with you in the occra champs last year... but we had electrical problems..... well this year i was on the ball i actually desgined the chasis over the summer in cad. then the day after kick off i anaimated what i thought our robot would do, but it was against the Human Player rules so we scrapped the idea and now we have a 2nd chasis cadded out and some drawings for appendage that shoud be in the process of finalization as i type.

we'll start sooner or later...

Weve been planning like crazy, and I cant wait to start building, think we'll be prototyping next week.

[greencactus3]

ooooh seems we're ahead of the game then. we will probably have our chassis rolling by tomorrow. cant wait till everyone starts posting thier plans and designs... obviously we are gonna be quiet about how our robot is gonna be.. well one hint is that we have a chassis. and it will roll. so anyone can assume it has wheels somewhere.. in some direction. maybe one, maybe two, maybe three, maybe foour, maybe five, maybe six, maybe seven, maybe eight, maybe nine....
we got some new toys this year such as a niiiice shop saw... watch out! we're using them

[CBaoth]

aye we are way ahead of the game... only a whole week or so behind...

[greencactus3]

YAY! we are now rolling!

[greencactus3]

i am AMAZED at how slow these occra boards are moving along at. or not moving at all. are there only like 5 people from occra here?

[Lisa Perez]

I'm here, but no longer on a team; I'm on the game committee

Anyway, we're definitely looking forward to what you guys have to offer this year! All the progress sounds great. Keep it up, and see you guys at the first competition.

Hmmmm...Let's see. We've basically designed, but have no materials. So, it's been about almost two weeks and few things have happened. Our shop is clean and organized, so i guess that's a good think. Hopefully we'll be going by end of this week.

[iheartpi]

what are you talking about ryo, everything is vaccumed sorted and put away in nice little labled boxes. How dare you say that we havnt seen clean and organized in 3 years. We are organized and by tomorrow we should be ready to drive too.

[CBaoth]
