You're going to have to tell me, because I'm not there any more and I don't know what is going on.

Oh okay, I knew you graduated, but I thought you might still have some contact with them...guess not. Sure, I'll see what they'd come up with.

Oh, I had contact with them and I gave them my designs and materials (plus the old device). I just don't have much faith they'll try to build anything cool.

Oh okay, but it's still Stuy we're talking about here, you guys are still pretty well funded (compared to us -.-) and I'm sure someone you left in charge or took charge there will come up with something good (maybe cool)...hopefully, right?
And I also do wonder if Townsend is still using their turtle from last year. LOLS

Surprise, surprise! Stuy dropped Sumo from all three teams A B and C. There was so little competition this year it wasn't funny. If I were a better driver, I would've picked up 1st, not 5th T_T
But I was surprised when Stuy didn't show up with anything. What a pity.

What was the winning bot for in the states? What did it look like?

I didn't compete at states last year (I went along as a helper), so I didn't get a good look at the bots. I know Brighton got third, and we lost to Niskayuna and another school, can't remember which. My guess is that both bots were a variation on the wedge shape--that certainly seems to be a common theme.

I think kahafman is asking about B.
