My team did a double sided intake too. It was a neat little feature, but totally not worth the space it takes up (and how much fun electronic placement gets), considering how easy it is to turn around.

38. Forget to have a blast doing FRC!

This. After 2012, never again for us.

Depending on the font, 25, 52, 205, 502, 1251, 1521, 2005, and 2255 could get away with it.


Also, Mecanum didn't go very poorly for us, granted we've never had an incredibly solid drive-train before.
Ironically, the during the first days of build season, a group of students on our team (including me) suggested what amounts to Titanium's drive-train with Vexpro shifters.

40. Play "Ultimate Descent"

41. Believe you can painlessly stop a runaway autonomous robot by stepping in front of it (pre-bumper days).

42. Weld in shorts.
43. Hop around the shop like a nincompoop like you have hot spatter in your shoes.

44. Accidentally give out spare/needed robot parts at competition because they "just looked like regular angle to me"

45. Cut yourself accidentally with a tape measure

46. Bend a pair of forceps so they fit into a small space with a nut

47. Put an 18v battery on a 12v motor
