Re: What are your Team Traditions?
-We blame all of our problems on a select group of kids who graduated years ago and were notorious for making things break by touching them.
-We prank call a person at every competition doing a funny voice that a lot of members on the team can do (she still can't figure out who it is). -We write G and O on our left hand's ring and middle fingers respectively and we write STUY on our right hand. |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
Insofar as Team 93's traditions...
-Nearly every match, someone shouts out, "WHO ARE WE?" , only to be answered by every who is ready, "93!" -At least one rookie each year (at least for the past few years) is asked to find a mysterious "aluminum magnet". I happened to be a rookie last year, and was asked. I figured it out after looking for awhile... -The team always has a Team Banquet, where all the seniors, mentors, and parents get recognition, we have a video recap, hand out gifts and stuff to the seniors since we won't be seeing them much for awhile (we have a policy where seniors cannot return to the team until after college), and eat! -At competitions, the driver team dyed their hair red (this year at least ).-Also at competions, someone can always be found in an apple core... (read the team name to get why) -Using the balls from '06, when the team is in need of a stress reliever at 11 P.M. after working all day, we play trenchball (dodgeball with a twist). There are probably some more that I can't think of right now... |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
we have a 1 dollar senior gift tradition. everyone but the graduating vets goes to the dollar store, and buys something random for every grad.
we also go to IHOP if we leave the shop later than 1 am |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
Our tradition is kinda goofy.
After our last regional of that season the team CEO (me this year) gets a cake in the face. Everyone had a blast. But I was blowing sprinkles out of my nose for a week LOL! |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
This will probably become a tradition:
Somehow "hug robot" ended up being #10 on our drive team's pre-match checklist. Let's just say it got hugged every time, after all, the list says we had to.... ![]() |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
It seems like our team is going to continue this which is going to laser tag at every one of our away regionals. Every away regional(2) we've gone to we went to some sort or laser tag arena which is always a blast. Another tradition is an end of the year social which we give out awards, give the seniors presents, have lots of food, music, games, and at the end give one deserving senior a BAE scholarship for engineering.

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
We started instituting pledging for our freshmen members. There are bot group activities that are nearly impossible to complete as well as individual assignments each kids gets.
For instance 1 kid had to take a picture with a girl from each team in Newton. Another was a kid who had a new daily mission. They enjoyed the process and it helped the kids grow together. It was a great team building experiment with them. We are going to continue it next year as well. |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
Traditions...
-"NERD ALERT" as our robot goes onto the field -If it's lost, it's probably in Dave's pocket (lead mechanical mentor) -I've somehow been deemed the team good luck charm. We lose comms whenever I don't point out to Dave that I'm watching. -After each day of competition, we have very, very long "Pluses and Deltas" team meetings. -Our team has always had at least one Spaz (currently 3: Spaz, SpazDad, and SpazGirl) -Does Scouting count? We always have at least 7 people scouting at competitions. -Banquet at the end of the year, complete with fun awards (and by this I mean ridiculous awards) -We always try to do Team-building things with other teams at competitions (i.e. JSA last year with team 27, some things this year at Nationals) (PM if you wanna participate?) -Blame the freshmen. Then fix it. |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
This is a really fun thread! It's cool to find out about all of the other traditions teams have. I actually have never thought about some of the things my team does as traditions, but I guess as our team ages some traditions and great memories have arisen. It will be interesting to find out what else will be born in years to come.

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
From 145 this one could cause us to lose almost a hour on a Saturday.
Something doesn't work on the robot so the Controls (Programming/wiring) team and Shop team end up bickering over who messed up, get bored of bickering so we all blame it on the PR (NEMO) team. Come to find out it was controls the whole time. Donuts on Saturday, no one worked till we got them. Then that brought the contest to see who could eat the most in one meeting. Last time I knew I was 13 The many random stuff that happens a lot: Looking at drawing board trying to figure something out then randomly a mentor says "Have another donut" Having a serious conversation with a lot of math and numbers, the same mentor from above would wonder off and go "Shiny thing" and play with something. |

Re: What are your Team Traditions?
I'm currently working on a secret project that I can't discuss at the moment, as the subject in question is also a user and may get curious as to what I keep posting about
![]() As a hint, it involves Black&Decker tools. I'm not going to say any more at this time. Check back in a couple weeks to find out. By the way, it's not a prank, for those of you who were inevitably wondering. Thaine |
