The Cheesy Poofs

You are not supposed to be a scaredy cat…364 is supposed to be 110 points better.:rolleyes:

I’m expecting nothing unique, just a regular tote/can stacker with center can grabbers, just extremely well executed and very fast/efficient.

My bets are on a 2 part (minimum) robot. 1 part is a version of Robowranglers Robin but based off of the scoring platform. Except instead of one at a time at the feeder station they would just shoves or throws totes towards something that processes the totes into a way it can stack. Something brings it to scoring platform sorter, sorter then processes and places it on the platform. Just wanted to get this in writing before I am proven miserably wrong tomorrow…

I bet it will be **A **well build robot for both tote and cans, it will have a full points auto. Oh and it will be made of melted world’s medals.

The release is late according to twitter. Was supposed to be out at 2:54

They specified PST…

Pacific Time not Eastern Time.

2:54, their time (PST). Roughly 2 hr 55 min from now.:slight_smile:

EDIT: May be the first time I have seen 7 people answer the same question in under a minute span.

2:54 pm Pacific

Just keep in mind that The Cheesy Poofs are in a different time zone.

Since they are in California, they probably meant pacific time.

Well now don’t I look foolish. I’m waiting with anticipation!

It’s pretty funny how fast we all answered that.
Over, and over, and over again.

That’s just how excited we all are for 254’s reveal; everybody’s keeping track of the time.

He just wanted to clarify something on the time and then suddenly ninjas! Makes me wonder…
Man it would be real cool if a bunch of ninjas gave me some thin mints right now…

Have you already seen the robot, or are you waiting in anticipation like the rest of us?

I have not, I’m excited to see it.

How about some hybrid mode from the poofs. . .

What exactly is going on there? What was hybrid mode? It appears that they’re using a Kinect to track their movements (?) but was this a part of FRC’s official game for 2012?
