Also, they wern’t scottish, they were Canadian. Off-Kilter is Canadian.

As for the first international team, wasn’t there one from Puerto Rico that was the first international team?

  1. Off Kilter, I think they played in in previous year as well.
  2. Team 188, Woburn Robotics (Then known as Team Canada Robotics), 1998. I was the on-field coach for 188 that year.

If Puerto Rico is considered International, then it would be the Baxter team from Puerto Rico that started in 1997. If Puerto Rico isn’t considereded international since it is a territory, then it would be Woburn (188) which started in 1998.

Off Kilter was the band that played in 1999. And they describe themselves as celtic, not scottish. http://www.offkilter.net/index.html

I remember everyone talking about how cool the placebo was in 1997, but I never watched a match with it, and don’t know.

Still no one with number 3 correct…

Hint…I mentioned it VERY recently…

For 1 bonus point, what protection did the human player have to wear in 1996 and 1997?

#11

Saftey Glasses and a Hard Hat.

#12

A hard hat with a face shield.

showbot :wink:

Baker nails down the bonus question for 1 bonus point. I may have to shave a few of those points if Indy beats the Pats this weekend though. :wink:

#15

Darn, I knew that one and Andy beat me to it.

  1. Off Kilter
  2. I thought the name of this team was Coqui Power. I can’t remember where they were from exactly, but I remember them from 1997 and their robot looked like a Frog.
  3. no idea.
#16

I looked back, and I’m guessing Showbot.

#17

Today’s answers…

  1. Off Kilter

  2. I will accept either Baxter Puerto Rico (Coqui Power), or Woburn Robotics team 188. The whole is Puerto Rico an international team can go either way, so I’ll be generous.

  3. I said it yesterday, Showbot!

I will post the standings tonight after I get back from my meeting.

1: Off Kilter

2: Team #12 from Puerto Rico

3: Showbot

Oops I’m a little late aren’t I. I didn’t even look at that 2nd page to see you had alread given the answer!

I just saw it pop up when I posted.

If I’m not mistaken, Jamaica is a different country so according to this, the first international team was Advanced Integrated Systems Ltd. / University of the West Indies & Jamaica College in 1994.

#21

Good Job Sarah, I stand corrected! I will give you 2 bonus points for proving me wrong. Because I already gave everyone else credit for Puerto Rico and Canada, they will be allowed to keep the points…standings forthcomming

I was pretty sure there was an international team from 92 or 93, but couldn’t find one. I guess I was just off by a year :frowning:
