Handcart required means hard to push robots. Hard to push robots means no wheels. No wheels means other means of propulsion. Other means of propulsion means propellers. Propellers mean water. WATER GAME CONFIRMED!!!

Just for reference, those totes are pretty heavy. And awkward/bulky to boot. The reason for the handcart is so you can get your KOP to the car without hurting your team members, particularly if parking is any distance away. Trust me, a wheeled conveyance (that you can later use under your robot if required) can save a lot of sore students.

If you brought a small student, they could fit in the trash can on the way back from kickoff, with very little additional space occupied.

A 2 wheel cart is highly recommended -- I bring my old luggage cart that was used to carry this portable computer through many airports.

from what i heard this year is that a handcart is seriously reccomended, not that rumors need to be here, but i really need something to start reading...

As a kickoff host, we tell our teams that every year (probably at FIRST's suggestion, if I remember correctly). I wouldn't read anything into it.

Has there been any update on when the Manual will be announced? We are less than 3 weeks away from kickoff.

The Game Manual isn't available until Kickoff. The encrypted version usually is released 2 or 3 days before Kickoff.

I'm not sure which manual you are referring to, but the 2016 Administration manual is available here.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 03:43.
