Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
"The Kicker isn't pulling back!!!"
"What is this palardymalarchi?" "It must be a software problem" (It turned out to be a mechanical problem) "I don't want to do that because if you loose the sensor then the robot will kill itself." "So... I have to make High set the solenoid Low and Low set the solenoid High" "Why don't I get a song like Carolyn (Sweet Caroline)?" "We said "Where is Eric?" and we found him in the CAD room eating cream puffs" "Does that surprise you?" "Do we have everything we need before we go down to the basement?" "Yeah." "Looking at the cart, I see a robot, batteries, and Mountain Dew. I don't think thats everything." "The robot kinda looks like a monster" "You are looking at the back. So I guess it could look like a monster with its head up its butt" (Before Build Season while fixing the '07 bot) "So the shoulder is all the way down, but is still trying to drive the shoulder another 40 degrees down?" (Talking about old robots) "What robot was that? Oh, that was the refrigerator one..." (Looking at old robots in the basement) "This robot won Semi-Finalist in the world and won the IRI" "This little robot won finalist in the world and could drag its upturned alliance partners off the ramp" "This robot had crab-drive" ... "This robot that can tilt the arm down and do a death spiral." |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
On the door of our programming Cave:
"If it's falling apart, it's a mechanical problem. If it's spewing magic smoke, it's an electrical problem. If it's rampaging around and destroying things, it's a programming problem." As we returned from the local Scrimmage: "Mars is bright tonight" |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Yesterday, when taking a break and eating pizza, I was complaining about the half pepperoni and half canadian bacon being 5/8 Pepperoni and 3/8 C.D.
Mentor: Do you know the difference between Pep, and C.D.? the area it comes from on the pig. freshman: yah, C.D. comes from the butt. B: hah, you like butt. Me: No, just pig butt. OH NO! (hang head) Needless to say we burst out laughing for like 20 mins later. R: Where do they make pens? A: the pen factory. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Mentor: Why is the winch so slow
Programmer: Because it's at half speed Mentor: Why is it at half speed? Programmer: Because you told me to make it run at half speed... Mentor: Why did the robot stop lifting? Programmer: We hit the software limit Mentor: Why are the limits so low? Programmer: Because you made me set them to some number you made up Mentor: Why isn't the compressor working? Programmer: Because there is no breaker Mentor: Why is there no breaker? Programmer: Because you told me to take it out... See a pattern here? |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Our team is making an Offensive Power Rating (OPR) and Defensive Power Rating (DRP) program for scouting and our programmer and I call it the Opper Durper. So after waiting for a while for him to finish it I write up on the To-Do List in the shop-
"Luke- Freakin Opper my Durper already!!!" Needless to say, the rest of the team was confused and Luke got a good laugh out of it. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Me: "...so, red or blue?"
Student: "Red" Mentor: "Blue" Me: *laughing* Student and Mentor: "What?" Me: "Well, you're wearing a red shirt and you said red (*points to student*), you're wearing a blue hoodie and you said blue (*points to mentor*)" They look at each other..."OHHHHHHHH!" Me: "And I'm the one asking the question, and I'm wearing purple...oh wow." |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
One of our Mentors after having just weighed the robot: "****, it's 6 kg overweight!"
The Mechanical Team Manager: "It's ok, they'll fix it in software" |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Which one, the astronomical observation, or the error analysis advice?
Well, since blank code is stored as ones, and used code is stored as ones and zeros, and the difference is measured by electrons, the more code you have, the lighter the robot is... |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
keep in mind we always make fun of each other so no big
K:"yeah i saved the team last year cause of all the drilling and filing i did B:"wow K so modest" A:"yeah imagine if he started exercising" K:"if you had to name the robot what would you name it?" Mentor N:"dont ask me that" K:"why?" Mentor N:"because if they announce it at regionals all it would be is $#@%#$" B:"you know they have a compilation of every swear word ever said in sopranos?" F:"what if they did that with all the screaming done in dragonball Z" Mentor R:"you ever notice how people in that show are named after foreign things like piccolo" o.0 add that to numerous peter chao impressions, voice changes, and endless freshmen initiations all in all made it a memorable build season. Glad to have called it my team, but saddened to never go through it again |
