But no matter how you place, the thing to watch for is the character change in the team members. The trophies are only important for a few hours. The character that is built will last a lifetime. |

I wonder how many games we could come up with that are not the one for FRC 2008. |

The weight sounds about right, too. If you need more than 65 pounds for your manipulator, then the drivetrain isn't the part you should be redesigning... |

Many people here in the CD fora know 'someone' on the inside. They aren't out there somewhere, they are here among us and they won't give an inch regarding the clues. It's very cool. |

week 7: check to see if the pets are still alive, ask significant others to take us back, do 6 weeks worth of make-up homework, and ask my boss for another extension. |

it isn't about the technology but about the teams working together. Sneaky GDC has done it again. |

I believe it is in the spirit of the game is to score more points than your opponent within the rules. That means offense AND defense. |

There is no rule that specifically states that you must obey the law of physics during the competition. This may be an oversight. |

The true beauty is, no matter what the game (Yes, even 2001), we spend these 6 weeks going crazy with design strategy, and trying to figure out a way to work the plot twists that the GDC throws at us...and its a blast. |

It's a game. It's a challenge. Face it like a man, build a robot to play the game and get over it. |

The magic in a competition isn't finding creative ways to make an opponent lose, but finding even more creative ways for you to win. |

Just to be clear, NOTHING anyone says here is a confirmation. The ONLY source for official answers to questions like this is the FIRST Q&A system. |
