Clearly, the answer to your question is "not enough". :)

A soccer ball could have easily been implemented, though I doubt you could fit a trackball :yikes:

I don't think that's a polite question to ask man...

Those things are practically antiques. I can't imagine there are many surviving examples of those left these days.

We've got one encased in lexan as part of a thank you from Team 379 for mentoring them during their early existence. It's on display at the National Packard Museum as part of a larger exhibit.

I'd pay to acquire a free range floppy, however.

Just wondering Pinecone, will you guys be posting the CAD up for this one? I'd love to check out some of the features.

Re: pic: 2791 Blocker Configuration

Do I get a bonus for naming them all? Or just a "you've been here too long"?

2x floppies (1999's Double Trouble)--and how you saved 2 I'll never know.
1x basketball (2012's Rebound Rumble)
1x Orbit Ball, moon-rock class (2009's Lunacy, AKA "the OTHER game that shall not be named")
1x white ring inner tube, which is most likely from 2011's Logomotion but could theoretically be from 1997's Toroid Terror. (The game piece type was also used in 2007, but only in red and blue.)

5 game pieces from 4 different years. And the robot is designed to handle none of them.

The question is, how does a team formed in 2006 have a game piece from 1999?

Borrowed from a mentor team, I would guess.

Do I get points for knowing that?
