Team name[]
I'm trying to work out the name for this team, mainly so I can use it for the Dutch Series Teams page. They use their team name in their robot intro here, but I cannot make out what it is. We may need a Dutch speaker to help us here. Christophee (talk) 11:50, April 16, 2013 (UTC)
- I think I've found the team captain's LinkedIn profile here (it's the same name and the photo seems to match up with the video above). I tried to find a Facebook page, but I haven't been able to so far. Christophee (talk) 12:22, April 16, 2013 (UTC)
- I ran it through two different Dutch speakers. One gave up quite quickly, the other put more time into it, though it's sadly quite complicated. According to him, the name of the team isn't a real Dutch word. It clearly sounds like "Boika", or something along those lines. There is no similar word like 'Boik' either in Dutch, in case they just put an A on the end of the name, like they did with the machine. ToastUltimatum 18:02, April 16, 2013 (UTC)
- That's annoying, but thanks for trying. Do you think we should take a guess, leave the pages as they are now (with a link to the video) or use a different name like Team Pathetica? Christophee (talk) 19:22, April 16, 2013 (UTC)

I asked for the team name on the Dutch Robot Games forum, and Leo van Miert told me it was Team Bohica. Christophee (talk) 19:37, April 24, 2013 (UTC)
Weapon controller[]
Was the gun the axe controller or was the axe fired by hitting a button the remote that was used to drive Pathetica? If the gun is the axe controller, it is another awesome weapon controller. Sam (BAZINGA) 20:50, April 16, 2013 (UTC)
