Gerbils
 

Did anyone else notice that on the flowchart first has on the second to the last page in the update, they specifically disallow using gerbils as energy sources.

What I am wondering is if we can use them as traction devices.

Just kidding about the traction part of course.

LOL!

Was it there before?

if not traction, what about non-functioning ( el muerto ) decoration?

Last year our robots name was R.A.L.P.H (Really awesome lowrider powered by hampsters). We had a moving hampster wheel with a picture of a hampster inside. So decorations are allowed. This also includes gerbals.

I remember that. Now you can do it for real!

we are so cruel

lol. yeah we r pretty cruel. i wouldnt want a member of PETA at one of our regionals. that would be a very bad publicity event for FIRST.

How about other rodents? I think that NYC sewer rats would be much more effective.
