As always, the deadline is nominally Sunday at midnight. I'll be at IRI this week (imagine that!), and if you'll be there too feel free to submit your entry in person. :)
Go!
It's really hard to see the most impressive matches when your teammate's hair is in the way. Particularly when the tech crew is filming you instead of the robots.
It's nice the team has a pep band... but seriously, if they don't learn to play something other than Mr. Roboto....
Hey look, someone dropped a lure over there!

When their pocket protectors unite, they are DSK. GO DSK!
A rare sighting of Slash, Sly from the Family Stone, Meatloaf, Davy Crokett, David Byrne, and Joan Jett

Why is Lars the drummer looking the wrong way, a half beat behind?
I expect my rights on CD to be revoked at any time. Worse than a negative infinity from Billfred.
:D Hah! Got them ALL to look! <click> (sigh) Now if we can just teach Lars right and left. :rolleyes:
[not-entry]OBTW, the drummer is on time by definition; everyone else must be a half beat or so ahead. :p [/not-entry]

Look!
Up in the sky!
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
No, it's Billfredman! (look out!)
Due to various incidents, the Safety Dance has replace the national anthem of the host country as the required opening for FIRST events.

Is this a game hint?
Could the 2017 season have something to do with Guitar Hero...?
:eek:

[not-an-entry!]If it had been posted 7 months earlier it would have been an excellent game hint for the 2007 game. (Reason left as exercise for the reader.)[/not-an-entry!]

Kara decided to stretch the definition of "in person" by texting Carolyn her entry to give to me after the DSK concert Friday night:
Eddie: "It's a bird!"
Dean Simmons: "It's a plane!"
Eddie: "No, seriously, I think I just saw a bird fly out of Lars's hair..."

Kara decided to stretch the definition of "in person" by texting Carolyn her entry to give to me after the DSK concert Friday night:
[absa-fraggin-lutely-not-an-entry]The rule doesn't say "in your own person", or something like "while the submitter and Billfred are breathing the same air" -- I always took this to mean that if the entry gets from the person who came up with it to the person of Billfred in time for judging while Billfred was in a state to remember to judge it, it's worthy of consideration. I'm all in favor of rolling with it!![/absa-fraggin-lutely-not-an-entry]
Edit: (And, for the record, Billfred's judging ninja'd my response)
Kara decided to stretch the definition of "in person" by texting Carolyn her entry to give to me after the DSK concert Friday night:
I read the rules, and there was nothing that said I couldn't do it...considering the last in-person entry I gave was written on a piece of gaffers tape stuck to a chunk of a ball, I had to do something to one-up myself.
