Re: So, what did you name your baby?

Annie Oakley... or, simply, "Annie O"

If you have ever been to a competition with us, we always do the "OOOOOO" when our team number is announced, so picking the name of one of the best trick shooters with a last name starting in O just seemed fitting

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

Our robot is named Lucky.
We went to a chinese buffet a couple weeks into the build, and my fortune cookie read, "Lucky is coming your way."

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

After our wonderful build day yestarday, we considered unofficially calling our robot Murphy's Abortion. However, our mentors felt it was somewhat politically incorrect.

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

We couldn't really come up with a name, so we're just calling ours Dawgma I. Not that imaginative, but it gets the point across nicely...

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

The name of N.E.W. Apple Corps' robot has been Tobor as far back as I can remember. Not sure if it's always been named as such, but it's been named that for a while. This year was supposed to be Tobor IX, but since this is the 10th year our team has been in FIRST, we decided to skip a number and go straight to Tobor X.

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

Our team has a working name that is used among team members, but we wouldn't want it announced in the arena . Our robot's public name is Clyde, which refers to both our ball harvester (PacMan reference) and our basketball shooter (Clyde Frazier) .

Re: So, what did you name your baby?

There's a couple ideas floating around the team...

One: A big long acronym that no one knows what it means...
IDKWTM (I dont know what this means) for example

Two: BJ Bumpers... I like this one, it's cute
Three: Various screen names, Daru, Vadus, etc...

Others...

PSP... after the PSP comercial... because it's like cheese you can take with you... At least it is now, after "weight reduction" day... we had to cut 25 pounds ;-;
