Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Our build site is in our school chemistry lab
Mentor: "Why is there a drill bit in this syringe?" Marshall: "Well I am going to be honest here. Amanda looked like she was getting dehydrated again so I saw the syringe. I took some water from the sink and squirted her with it. Well at least I think that it was water. Actually I hope it was water. Well anyway I pushed the plunger thingy down with so much force that it cracked." Mentor: "So there is a drill bit in it why?" Marshall: "I wanted to make sure it was really cracked so I stuck a drill bit in it" Mentor: "OOh that makes a lot of sense *rolls her eyes* come on guys you have to pay attention. we are in a chemistry lab and what if that was not water that you took out of the sink. You have to watch what you are doing and where you are putting things and move things that can be harmful. (turns around and almost knocks over the 6.0 M hydrochloric acid) |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
"Mrs. XXX told me not to by any paddle balls, so I ordered 4 dozen! She told me not to buy any hacky sacks, so I got 4 dozen. She told me not to buy any more boas, so I ordered 50! She told me not to buy any more aliens, so I bought, I don't even know how many!"
MARS is gonna have lots of goodies to give out in Orlando. |

On our packing of the controls we withheld-
"It looks like a demented Missile Silo decorated for Christmas, but it'll hold." |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
over the DC pa system... "attention in the pits, team 365 needs hugs, team 365 needs hugs."
Monday after we got back, Kevin sat down at the lunch table and said, "I felt like I fit in there." All I could think for a minute was, 'this is so cool- I feel like it's my fault he said that' |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
well today our coach, myself, and a couple of other students were cleaning up our work space. we were in the process of sorting through some scrap metal when my coach pulls our a piece and begins to say what we could've used this for...
my teammate john grabs a similar piece and goes... John-what is this, aluminum? coach- no its metal. of course we craked up ![]() |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
"Hey, that shooter setup looks like it could potentially break the limit switch..."
"Let's test it!" (proceeds to bang shooter arm as hard as possible against the piece of 80/20 which it normally rests on) "Ok, new plan. We duct-tape the programmers to their chairs until the camera tracking works." "How's the flyweel shooter working?" "We've renamed it. It's now the duct-tape and ziptie shooter." "Why's that?" "It shoots duct-tape and zipties." "Robotics is really preparing us for jobs at NASA. Look. We're past deadline, overweight, overbudget, and our [project] doesn't even work!" "There's a small bug in my password changing script: it won't change the password unless the new password is the same as the old one." "The harvester almost harvests, the shooter almost shoots, the robot almost drives, and the code almost compiles!" "Looks like we have to reset our 'number of days without killing a speed controller' counter again. It was up to 4!" "What smells like smoke?" "Hey guys, first fire of build season!" After a few minutes... "So what happened?" "A freshman wired four victors backwards and we tried to run a motor in reverse. They shorted and caught on fire." "Wait, so you killed four victors at once?" "Yes." "New high score!" And my sig. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
I feel compelled to contribute.
Mentor: *checks rankings* That last match bumped us up to 6th. For our first event, we're doing pretty well! Student 1: ...That's not right. We can't be THAT far up on the first day. Student 2: What day is it? Mentor: Uh, Friday the 13th... Student 3: That explains it. We're just immune to everyone else's suffering. ------ *digging through the electrical bins* Student 1: *pulls up a tightly wrapped object* Uh, what is this? Student 2: Lead. Don't ask. Student 1: Uh...Isn't this kinda dangerous to have in here? Student 2: We like to imagine it makes the electrons go faster. ------ Marketing Leader: Ooo, I always wanted to solder! Wanna teach me? Electrical Leader: Sure. We need to find the tips of my fingers and shreds of burnt flesh and we'll set you up. Marketing Leader: Uh...I'll go work on Chairman's. ------ Programming Leader: Chris! Chris (Pneumatics Leader): What? Programming Leader: Robot go "psssh!" Fix! This later turned into "Beepu" for programming, "Ga-lunk" for drivetrain, "Chrff" for chassis, "Vrrrrk" for gamespec, and "Biz-zit" for electrical. ------ *after weighing the robot for eliminations* Inspector: Yup! You're fine. Dropped from 119.6 to 118.9. Mentor: Grea-...Did we lose weight? What? How? Student: We didn't take anything off... Mentor: We're going to interpret this as a good sign. Student 2: I'll go get the duck-tape and the lead block. ------ Sensors Leader: ...Did we just blow a year's worth of Victors? Student: Uh... Sensors Leader: ...And how far are we into the build season? Student: 40 minutes? ------ Mentor 1: *finishing up weight meeting* Haha! And if we need more weight, we'll take it out of programming. Programming Student: Namun, make your code lighter! Namun (Programming Leader): *smashing at his computer* I'M CHUNKING AS FAST AS I CAN! ------ Driver: Its ROBOTICS! *activates shooter and smacks a student with a moonrock* ------ Student: Should we be worried that the only blood spilled this year is from programming? ------ Sensors Leader: Who're we with next round? Anyone we know? Scouting Leader: Mr. and Mrs. Stationary Trailer. Last edited by Novi Hopper : 18-03-2009 at 22:29. |
