Hello. My name is Dallas. I am an old engineer that designs robots for a living. I have also spend more than a decade teaching children to build robots.
Back in the day, early 2000's I made Battlebots. I was on the very first episode of Battlebots that featured me getting beat my a 13 year old girl with a pink, plastic, ladybug robot.
I also created the Shelbot which was featured on the Big Bang Theory TV show allowing Sheldon to stay safely in his room while he sent the robot out into the world.
Otherwise most of what I do is proprietary for some other company.

I have started learning about poker chips and buying sample sets of chips for a home poker set. I am learning there is a very large spectrum of chips.

I have been wishing I could find high resolution images and other details about chips. Maybe someday I'll start posting some of my images and reviews.

There seems to be a wealth of information here.
 
Welcome!

if you make it up to indy let me know =)

Holyshit, I definably watch that episode before since I watched the whole series haha.

Watching 2 (sometime 3) robots trying to destory one another is Way more entertaining than WWF

Also, Welcome to PCF
 
Welcome. Always glad to see a fellow Hoosier on here! I live in northern Indiana.
 
Who doesn't love killer robots and Hoosiers? Go Indiana! I'm on the wrong end of the state but welcome to the forum!!!

Awesome! (I'm also an engineer, but in a less sexy field)

Hello and welcome to PCF!

Wouldn't you have made that robot too? I love that scene. I think I watched it 50 times in a row the first time I watched it.

Welcome fellow hoosier. When I was in grad school in Bloomington (early 2000's), I spent all my waking moments playing cards at the caesar's boat in new albany.
 
My status was: Waiting List, Now it is Sitting Out. I have searched on the forum and google to find the meaning of these. Maybe I not using the search properly. Surly someone has asked this question before. I assume these are levels.
Do they mean something? Can someone explain the meanings? Is there documentation somewhere?
Thanks.

Thanks. I need to work on my PCF search skills.
Are those levels tied to privileges? For example it looks like I can now reply to PCF Introductions. I did search again before asking :-)
