It literally was that bad.

Re: 2014 Game

Could it be that this years game will have greater human player interaction? I'm thinking something similar to lunacy minus the regolith...

Or maybe a game where the roles are reversed, and the robot has to feed the human countless stacks of frisbees!

Does that mean the 'bots will be repairing defective humans in the Pits?

I would actually like to see a humans vs robots match of ultimate ascent. Could end badly though::ouch::

As opposed to almost any other game, I could actually see the robots beating the humans!

We don't have sports teams at our highschool, so the robotics team gets the pep rallies. Every year we do some sort of students vs. the robot match at the assembly. It's always a big hit with the school, gets them excited to go on a field trip to see us compete.

I could actually see that happening too... but the humans would be able to climb better:) well at least I could...

I bet I could play better defense as well

Powering off the robot totally counts as a hit "below the belt". Even if the robot lacks a belt.

Really, you think climbing would be easy. I think that you forget all of the nuanced rules relating to climbing. How are you going to get on the first level without touching the second? If you manage to get to the first level, how will you be able to reach the second without touching the ground. If you are going for 30, how are you going to get your entire body above the 2nd bar and hold yourself there? Even with the opened up G23, you would have to be constantly wary of not breaking the 54" cylinder.

I have doubts that any person without extensive gymnastics experience could perform a legal 30 point climb in less than 20 seconds. The 20 point climb would also be extremely difficult. Also, the buzzer-beater 10 point hangs achieved by many robots would be all but impossible for humans.

Use the corner bar and brace/shimmy up?

All you have to do is straddle the first level bar and lift your feet.

And stay there for five seconds without tipping over?

Re: 2014 Game

One of my students made a clever guess that based on FIRST's history, they would again try to do some sort of game based on the major sporting event of this year. They suggested it may be related to the Winter Olympics. Thoughts?
