"Its not every day you get to shoot a police car"
We wanted to test the speed of our shooter, foruntately one of our mentors had connections with the Ithaca Police Department. They sent a squad car and we shot balls at its radar detector. Problem solved! "Our cart has legs" Since FLR was our only regional, we wanted to save money by taking it on the bus. Unforunately, busses weren't allowed to come close enough to the docking area. We had two pieces of the crate, plus the robot to move with only 2 carts. As a result, we had to carry the second half of our crate. We had 8 people carrying it, it was a great team effort!

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Most of my favorites came from when one of the students found easy grader pro on his computer and decided to grade the engineers on perfomance and design.
Me: Do you really want me to make this? This is probably one of the worst designs I have ever seen. Minus 5 on design. R: I'm pretty sure I already have a zero, so yes I want you to make this part. Things like this happened a lot. Man of the engineers were disapointed with their grades. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
"Quick Shut It Off!"
"Time for our morning two liter for 53 cents run. Whos coming?" "Oops" "Why are trying to weld metal ontop of wood with a gas welder...?" "Well guys, the reason we sat here for 3 hours trying to figure out why our robot was not moving was because the PWM cables were in the Relay outputs... stupid electronics people..." -hehe... that was a pain in the butt. |

"It's not a dimplelizer, it's a spring-loaded center punch."
Our mentor always wanted us to use actual center punch and mallet instead of a spring-loaded center punch. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
I didn't read the entire thread so I don't know if someone from my team already posted this. We call poof balls SGO's for Spherical Game Objects. We were talking strategy for the first week or two of build season and all this talk of "balls" got kind of suggestive.

"We now have a Mr. Coffee and a Mrs. Tea Pot"
"Go Nickstine"- in reference to our drivers, Nick and Kristine "What's wrong with Martin" "He has Cancer cause Mr. O sprayed him in the mouth with Methyl Ethyl Bad Stuff"- About one team member accidentally ingesting Methylene Chloride "It's an Electrical Problem"- The Mechanical people "It's a programing problem"- The electrical people "It's clearly a mechanical problem"- The programmer "The robot is overweight by 10 pounds, I don't think we can weight reduce that" "It's Nick's fault, the code is too heavy." "We can measure the robot by having Mel walk by it." "You are now on the list of competent freshman." "Who's on the list?" "You" "I need the easy strippers. I only like strippers when they are easy." "If you abuse the easy button, you become it." "What does that mean?" "We hit you and you say 'That was easy'" "Chris put males on both ends of the PWM, you know what that means" "What if we keep the easy button on the drivers station and hit it every time we win a match, even if it wasn't easy." "That would be a good way to make people hate us." "Great scouting" "That was only half scouting. The first half was aggressive self promotion."- Me after we won Chesapeake and people were complementing my scouting. Last edited by ScoutingNerd175 : 19-03-2006 at 20:12. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
More from 1629:
"Ow, I broke myself." Team member when he collapsed sideways off of a chair in the hotel, in slow motion, from a standing position, near some rather expensive electronics. Why he was standing on the chair, no one knows; we were watching scouting tape on a projector at the time. "The code is fine, the robot just gets stagefright!" "Get your head out of the shooter!" "I don't care if it's bent, it adds character." Me, to a driver: You need to watch your feet when I move the cart. Driver: Don't worry, you won't hurt my feet. Me: I'm not worried about your feet, I just don't want you to drop the robot! |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Emily: Jaine, stop hitting on my boyfriend!
Jaine: What, you don't like it when he takes things off for me? (When I was bugging her boyfriend, John, to take out a drill bit from the drill press, which I was too weak to wedge loose.) |
