Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
Isn't it also called "check all pockets for the missing pins"?

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
More like *toss broken pins in the "robot barf" box*
Refraining from further comment as I'm a key volunteer who isn't supposed to talk about on-field incidents. I hope I didn't say too much. |

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
Are we running out of Triple Tortugas? As there are fewer and fewer first time event participants, I would think so but having attended NEFIRST's UMass Dartmouth event, I know that this is not the case.
We ALMOST had one in the Elims (and had the match ended mid match, I think we would have). Also, Paul Copioli tried to claim the a prize for a Triple Tortuga as Emcee at that same tournament, arguing that I saw it with my own eyes so no video was necessary. He had a point but I say, nay. The rules require a link, my personal retinas viewing the match not withstanding. And actually, even watching it live, I am a little skeptical -- I will need to review the tape to see if 88 just stopped driving or were they really tortugad (it was an amazing thing even if it wasn't a 3T). Sooo.... there are still Triple Tortuga prizes to be awarded. Share the link and win a gift card. Dr. Joe J. Last edited by Joe Johnson : 21-03-2016 at 11:58. |

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
My apologies to 3180, but this was one of the more humorous tortugas that I've seen this year... Not a triple, but funny all the same.

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
So... ...is the contest over basically? No new entries for this week?
Still 2 $10 gift cards and a $50 gift card to be claimed (though a Double Triple Tortuga seems like it just isn't in the cards... ...but you never know). Dr. Joe J. |

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
There are still quite a few teams in the PNW district who are going to be at their first two competitions in week 4 and 5... so maybe then?

I'll state here now that I believe that all of your triple Tortuga cards will be awarded before the world championship but the double triple Tortuga card will not. |

https://youtu.be/euNOPz8JMBM?t=3h43m19s I was going to submit this match as a triple tortuga...but it's not clear why the third red robot just sits there moving back and forth in the neutral zone. It crosses the low bar once and then I think it might get stuck on a ball at some point. Last edited by JohnFogarty : 22-03-2016 at 13:15. |

I do not believe that that video is a triple Tortuga because the third robot is just 'spinning in place'. But that "tent formation" is hilarious. |

Re: The Triple Tortuga is Contest born.
Not a triple tortuga, but a very impressive tortuga at the Los Angeles Regional (also note the blue alliance team in the foreground missing all its bumpers as well)
