I really enjoy these blank updates.

It's almost like the GDC is saying, "Hey guys, we know you're looking for an update, but we don't have any changes to make at the moment, so have fun."

Not really !!

They are complying with their self imposed regulation of releasing updates to a specific schedule. The procedure is more common than you might think.

Ug. Why does the GDC do this to us? This kind of rules change is not what I want on my mind all week 1.

(/ 'o')/ Lets do this!

We need more updates like this. It is easily my favorite update this season.

This is probably the most important of the update the year yet! :P

Best of luck to all of those who are competing in Week 1!

This post just reminds me of how much I miss not having a week one regional to go to. The last two years, we only waited 9 days to see our robots after they were shipped. For Geoffery, we still have 19 days left to wait.

Next year as a hopeful officer, I definitely want to pick a Week One or Week Two Regional, even if it's less time to work on withholding.

That said, good luck to everyone next week. I'll definitely be eyeing whatever comes out of the NJ Regional--11, 25, 75, AND 1676 will be in Virginia this year. I guess the RoboRaiders and Pascack told MORT and Raider Robotix to come crash the Virginia Party again this year.

Anyway, perhaps this update is the GDC's warning to all teams playing in Week 1 regionals that luck will be required? :p

I guess our team still has to print this out and put it in the 2011 rule binder :p

This update has completely changed my view of the game. So much has been shown in this update.

Thanks GDC.

Haha... Gotta love the last team update before competitions.

True say, GDC. True say.

I'll take this opportunity to wish all teams luck at the competitions!

Not to put a downer on anyone, but this might man their waiting till after week 1 to change everything :eek:

I hope not.
Best of luck to everyone out there! :D
