Daniel G., Daniel K., and I have decided to work on the creative challenge for the Queens pentathalon. We wish to use Lego pneumatics to create propulsion.

I decided to choose the slalom for the penthalon, since i won it last year. However this time i'm going to use the NXT instead of the RCX. This time i hope i'm not falsely accredited if i win!

I don't know who I'm going to be working with but I am interested in working on the BallGame because if I make a claw for that then I have an advantage for the mystery challange as well.

Me, Marius, AJ, and David are deciding to do the mountain climber challenge. We already know that if we have a regular robot that is skinny won't go high because each time the robot goes high on the ramp the center of gravity moves out of the robot. So the skinnier the robot it won't go that high. So we are going to make a flat long robot so that the center f gravity would take a while for it to come out of the robot.

My group and I have decided to work on the mountain climber challenge. We have a few ideas that we plan to work on. One idea is to build an arm that would extend once the robot starts.

The nanites have a pretty cool idea of making the robot doing chicken dance by reating to the music. I can't wait to see how it comes out.

We have decided to work on the mountain climber for the Pentathlon Competition. We will use the idea of using worm gears, but we will have to adjust the ratio, due to the fact that we only have two minutes.

Gary, Gabby, Eric and I decided to do the creative challenge. We are thinking of constructing "Nerdzilla", a robotic version of Godzilla. We will also construct a lego city for it to destroy.

Our group, the replicators, plans to bulid a robot for the creative challenge. We would like to construct a robot that catapaults objects or make a robot that lip syncs and/or dances to a song.

I think that Gabby's group has a very good idea for the creative challenge. In my head, it sounds like fun and it would by funny to see a robot destroy a city.

I think I would like to see the NERDZILLA in action. Injecting humor into these solutions is bound to catch the judges' eyes!
