Not GP vs. GP
 
Simple game: I start by telling something that's not very graciously professional. The next person corrects it by giving a GP instance.
EXAMPLE:
NOT GP: Johnny pushes Mary to the floor.
GP: Johnny saves Mary's life by pushing her out of the way of a falling rafter.

Got it? Good. Here we go:

NOT GP: Johnny steals Mary's Mountain Dew.

GP: The pneumatics system was a safety hazard the way it was designed with many pinchpoints, so Jimmy saved the day (and maybe some fingers).

Non-GP: Goofus throws a towel over the vision target rendering it useless.

ewankoff 12-10-2006 11:21

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
GP:goofus uses the towel to clean off the vision target that had peviously been dirtied.

Graham Donaldson 12-10-2006 22:04

-gp:joe shmoe hides another team's driver and takes his identity.

savage301 26-10-2006 21:35

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
Well I'm going to revive this thread I hope.

GP- Joe Shmoe only does this as a last resort because the driver was very ill. He competes his hardest even though the match that he is in is against his own team. And after tells the sick members team what hospital he is at.

Non GP- When the pits close on Friday John Doe sneaks into the top 5 teams pit and switches the input wire in their victors. (If anyones done this you know what I'm talking about: BOO Fire :D )

ewankoff 27-10-2006 08:18

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
gp:john doe switches the input wires because they were wrong in the first place and was trying to be helpful.

-gp:joe walks to another teams pits and takes several tools without asking

Taylor 27-10-2006 14:59

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
GP: Joe returns the tools at lunch, cleaned, polished, and oiled. Since nobody saw him do either, he reaches the height of GP.

Schnabel 27-10-2006 18:45

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
GP:Alice apologized and told her mom that she was testing the effects of Gravity and that she should have put a warning around the area.

-GP:John breaks into a teams trailer and drills a hole in the top so that rain water entered into it, thus creating a wave of water that submerged the robot when opening the trailer. He then never apologized or helped pay for the damages as he never told anyone that he did it. (I came up with this on the fly! I want to see if someone can go against this! :D )

lukevanoort 27-10-2006 18:54

Re: Not GP vs. GP
 
GP - John is in fact a mentor on team 842, and knew the trailer had nothing in it. He drilled the hole to help test the waterproofing on their underwater ROV because the pool was closed. Afterwards he patched the hole.

non-GP - Fred's team is in the #2 spot at their regional so he 'lubricates' the #1 team's gearboxes with nitroglycerin prior to the match they have against them.
