peckenpaugh | MAGIROBOTICS CLUB ROBO DANCE OFF AND... oh...

magirobotics club robo dance off

what's up? Dr. Ranui wants some good, clean fun. No mayhem, no sentient robots who need to be put down, no setting the entire shed on fire: tonight, Magirobotics Club gets to show off their little mechanical friends without fearing for the safety of everyone around them!

For most of the month, the club has been focusing on movement and getting their robots to obey commands both simple and complex, and preferably to a beat. There’s already music playing when the members filter into the Artificing Shed tonight, and Dr. Ranui greets them from the middle of a miniature disco dance floor, where he and his own boogiebot, Beatbot, are warming up. He shows off how Beatbot can play just about any song you can imagine while simultaneously busting some sick moves, but the four freshmen recruited to judge the contest give him straight 1s. He sputters and sparks a little at the low score, but otherwise keeps right on playing. What a good omen!

how this works! ⬥ Magirobotics Club students can check using the form under the DANCE-OFF header. A panel of four freshmen judges will score their bot's boogieing! We'll announce a winner later.

⬥ Students who are not magirobotics club members are welcome to come watch, but only Magirobotics Club members may enter the contest. Artificing students, in particular, were made aware that the contest would be happening.

⬥ Oh...and...I guess something happened... Maybe you should go check out that header to find out...

locations! ⬦ DANCE-OFF: It's time to break it down, bots! Magirobotics Club members, post your forms here!

⬦ THE ARTIFICING SHED: The shed's been cleared of its usual clutter. In the very center of the room a tiny wooden dance floor has been set up. A panel of freshmen judges sits to one side, and on the other, there's room for the audience to watch. Dr. Ranui stands with his wand at the ready, in case any fires need to be put out. Want to thread hyping your bots up before their debut? Or maybe you're part of the peanut gallery watching the display? You can thread about it here!

⬦ FATAL EXCEPTION ERROR: SOMETHING WENT WRONG...: Oh—oh no...

Oh my god I can't wait to torment my children with bad dancing.

Does anyone want to tango with Val, Laszlo or Uriah?

ohh armani does but i cant decide which child

Oh man well Uriah and Val are both alright dancers, Laszlo is a TERRIBLE dancer, if that helps at all.

SCREAM
THIS IS SO CUTE

I don’t know who to make dance
So I guess if you have Dance Time Requests I’ll fold to those
But Chanel is entirely invested in the victory of Eddy’s robot so like she’s here in the beginning even

did she manage to teach him anything beyond head bobbing

Listen
She tried to

lmfao oh my GOD

i love it???

We were very excited about this bit of ridiculousness.

Hawthorne is one of my three suffering Danceitis.
I suppose whether Jup or Winter winds up afflicted depends on if anyone wants them to dance and/or rescue them.

Kermie and Jup try to do the dance from dirty dancing but Jup has to catch Kermie

Eddy is here for the contest (THANK YOU, Chanel) and oh boy he is not a good dancer, but here we go!!!

Fred or Bijou, idk?? ONE HAS SKILLS, THE OTHER THINKS SHE DOES. 😎 If someone wants one of them specifically, lemme knoooooow.

Edited (lmao i read the robot form as stuttering initially and thought b-boying was like b-boing 🤦‍♀️) 2019-11-20 17:31 (UTC)

armani is here to support the goths :') WHAT A CUTE CURSE THOUGH?? he's going to think it's fun, sorry

Laszlo and Armani for B and C please!

Hopefully Laszlo won't drop Armani if he tries to dip him.

HAVE A VERY FUN AFTERNOON BOYS

consider the following: armani takes the lead and dips laszlo

Edited (the spirit of dance takes over and armani channels his best gomez addams ) 2019-11-20 20:49 (UTC)

God I've been so fucking stoked for dance plague. I'M HERE. Cedar is as well, and I'll rock up and post their boogie bot soon, but I really need to narrow down their own dancing style. I think they're a line dancer.

AND either Kermit or Mary Grace are gonna get plagued and I'm leaning Kermie because while he can actually dance pretty well, he's definitely going to hit someone in the face and lose his planner. LMK IF YOU WANT ANYTHING!!!

H for Constanza pls?

Thank you for saving mankind, Constanza.
