I do believe if a robot can fall through a concrete floor that is reinforced with re-bar, you may be a little over weight

1024's robot washed up after their experiment with a water game. Note: Do not build a pool out of cement blocks.

[npoe]Wow, did I really work the water game theory into it?

1024 figured that if their bot could smash through a concrete wall then a few bots playing defense wouldn't be anything to worry about. Battlebots, cringe in fear

Team 1024 will not be participating in the FIRST Robotics Competition for the next three years. Instead, they will be spending all their money toward repairs for their school's destroyed walls.

Moral of the story: always check your robot's autonomous code before running it.

Team 1024 tests out the terrain for the 2009 FRC game. Apparently they didn't get the memo that the moon is frictionless and slick.

When the prototype Dalek, number 1024, broke into our fortress screaming "EXTERMINATE", we knew that the Daleks had evolved ... and we were doomed.

1024 found itself unable to take out a wall, so it called in help. This picture was taken an Oink Oink BOOM! or two later.
