Check it out! It's a legit, from scratch webpage. In fact, it's the first web page I've ever designed WITH BUTTONS lol. Anything can be changed, just let me know. Of course, it's still a work in progress... Chad's listed as a Junior lol and I'm working on bordering the black parts, etc. But at least it's up and running. And no, I totally did NOT copy team 329 AT ALL And it only took me 5 hours! hah. Another thing- on the "our team" page, everyone's pictures are going to ...

287robot — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 21:46:59 GMT

Does anybody remember the name of that song that was played at the competition? The really techno, computerized one? What was the name of it?

I have a small issue.

Carissa — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 21:26:31 GMT

Okay, there's been a small dilemma in Robotics for myself. D: Because I am secretary, I have the "opportunity" to take the attendance, etc and I just recently made a new sheet because peoples names were spelt wrong and some people were missing. & now I come to find out new people are joining, they haven't come this year, or what ever the reason may be. Now I have to completely make a whole new sheet, and I don't really have the printer to do it. SO PEOPLE, IF ...

Funny pictures you can't pass off XD

TiRAMIsu — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 05:27:09 GMT

Yes, I found a picture of God eating something I do not know. Sorry, Junior, but I was bored, typed in Google Images "America's Next Top Model hairstyles" and it came up a couple of pages later.

Post up funny things when you're bored.

READ THIS OVER AND ADD TO IT IF NEEDED.

RoboAdmin — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 23:34:25 GMT

THIS IS THE CHAIRMAN'S ESSAY SO FAR: (I'm still fixing a lot of it, I just NEED HELP. ) EDITED:* The William Floyd Robotics Team has been building robots since 1999, as one would expect from a robotics club. What might not be expected is the level of dedication and diversification involved with being a member. Each year, it seems that both our team size and the intricacy of our tasks grow. Over the years, we have done our best to be a successful and hardworking team. Our team ...

What does your desktop background look like?

Ex-Member — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 00:13:21 GMT

So, random topic, but what does your desktop background look like? Here's a screenshot of mine, though I do have to warn you- if you can't take nudity in an artistic manner, don't even fucking bother click it. Tinypic url look to see full dimensions. Photobucket url to see it, but resized because of Photobucket :/. Now, if you want to show off yours, here's how to on a laptop ( I dunno on home desktops, so you should find out how yourself.

Music for CD idea Lady Gross and Lady Erck came up with and whatnot. VOTE IN POLL NOW.

Ex-Member — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 20:10:49 GMT

As few vets (actually, no vets :$ ) know that I have great relations with my music teacher Mr. Ober, whose classroom is REALLY CLOSE to the robotics room, and has allowed me to use his equipment, macs and all, for robotics. Even during my team/free period next semester. <3 And I have a great idea, hopefully. It's that I will create instrumentals for the video for Chairman's, but for the cds to be given out FOR FREE at competition as favors and whatnot to spread our team word and ...

First Post in a LONGGGGG time! (Party Bin Results)

3p!c. — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 03:05:58 GMT

Yeah well everyone needs to bring in some supplies for our "Big Flag" Project, as I'd now like to call it. Here's my analysis of the party bin at the present time: We have quite a few unfinished posters from last year. We'll probably be finishing them in the comming weeks We have a few pom-poms, but I want MORE. Someone buy some, k. I ditched the "Bob the Builder" Hats. Sorry guys! I want a set of markers to keep in the party bin. I also want to stock it with ...

I'm not going to edit this. I'm not going to regret this.

TiRAMIsu — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 01:30:29 GMT

To robotics, obviously. I've experienced many things with the group last year, and this year. Meeting new people, learning about things beyond my expectations, yadda, yadda, yadda. A lot of you are really important to me despite how little I say in real life. I want to prove it to each of you, to at least understand where I'm coming from with this. I feel bad for not being able to say it very often. I'm scared of what each of you will think of me after reading this. An odd bunch, we ...

To be or...

Ex-Member — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 00:42:26 GMT

Not to be. That is the question. And really, that's what I'm asking. These days, we see "stereotypes", "victims" and "bullies" all around. Unlike the masses who shrug it off, I am willing to admit to my cruel and deceptive self. After all, I'm only human. However, according to such masses, acceptance of one's self (one's bad self, in this case) is wrong. How, may I ask, is it wrong? Isn't acceptance itself a human value we created? Various sources ...

Sister thread

Ex-Member — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 00:20:06 GMT

Sister thread to the other posted. Here is a grand music selection for the Chairman's video, if we don't get any of the songs done for the video or freshie video before then. Pick like, 5 or 6 of these. I know most of these are classical, but as always, one of our top goals is gracious professionalism. Youtube them all to hear each. Flight of the Bumblebee (For charging in! xD) Ride of the Valkyries (For entrances!) O Fortuna (lol war music) Hail to the Chief (For the president.) Sandstorm Blueberry ...

We've already got a plan set for the video, but it also requires interviews as well! Only the veterans ...

CD Ideas....?

Carissa — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 23:20:17 GMT

Like Sarah was saying, we need music ideas to go on the CD's. : D Everyone post your ideas here! And they have to somehow relate to robotics, you know what I mean? Nothing random like.....Naruto theme songs. You need to explain a bit as to why they should be on the album. Okay? : ) (I know Matt already suggested "Rock You Like a Hurricane" By Scorpions)

Science fiction in school

haris "dinodefender — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 23:39:28 GMT

We need more science fiction in our english classes. I mean literature, like Isaac Asmiov,Ray Bradbury, Orson Scott Card, Arthur C. Clarke. Robert A. Heinlen, and H.G. Wells with Julius Verne. There is too much focus on Greek and Roman literature,also Shakspere. We should try to get more sci-fi into the ciriculum. Who knows the state might put it into their regents and surprise us for we focused on the Illiad, Odepheius Rex, and Romeo and Juliet. Now these are all good but we need to prepare ...

Chairman's Award Video Ideas that A/V have:FIRST POST=IMPORTANT WALL TEXT ALL SHOULD READ.

Ex-Member — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 00:45:04 GMT

This is part of what's required of us to even win Regional Chairman’s Award, so it's just as important as the essay! D= And most of this is direct from the Chairman's Award Criteria, with some edits to make the point easier to understand. MAIN POINT: It's got to explain what the team has done to be a Regional Chairman’s Award winning team. SRSLY. And here's what it should have! - A 16:9 (“widescreen aspect ratio”) Flash, Quicktime, or Windows Media file - Not more than ...

Read, I think it's important! Mainly for the Mechanics. : )

Found this at the blogspot today, updated [http://frcdirector.blogspot.com/] Good Afternoon Teams, Here at HQ, we’ve spent a lot of time testing the new control system wireless components lately. You may have heard some concerns using Bluetooth technology, so I want you to know the FRC wireless is 802.11n based. We’ve been working with Calence (a wireless system integrator recommended to us by CISCO) and OctoScope ( a local company with wireless testing expertise) to test our field ...

SECOND CLUE

Alex — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 19:47:05 GMT

The Asians have discovered that the second clue has been released, it is at this link http://frcdirector.blogspot.com/ From what I have researched, through my geographical genius, I have concluded that the first names in each part of the clue (Colorado, Central. Minnetonka, Evergreen) are roads in those cities mentioned (Paramount, Phoenix, Minnetonka, and Dover). I guess through the rest of the clue you can say that you start somewhere, then get to an area to meet up with your team, ...

Spirit project ideas

Well, I was recently trying to think of projects that we could also include to do for the competition. Like I know we already have posters and stuff, but maybe some more would be fun!

Anyone have any ideas?
Post them here! : )

Robotics Flag?

Carissa — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 20:23:52 GMT

So I'm thinking about creating a guild for team 287 for the site:

Should I make a guild on gaiaonline?
