We go for simple machines that accomplish the primary game tasks and are easy to operate. Hopefully, simplicity means efficient design - not just crude or lacking. We have always done tank drives with one speed transmissions. We haven't used the camera much. We always try to make it easy to get at stuff for service and repairs. Make the thing that picks up the game piece so user-friendly that even I can operate it in a mentor match!

Resistance to change and radical ideas. Perhaps, it is the fear of failure that hold them back, but my personality and the personalities of many team members seems to collide a lot. A lot of my radical ideas come under fire by many, but few find flaws. Yet they are still resistant to change. Perhaps, I am the extreme radical and the general population will always have that resistance to my ideas.

Yes, please don't use this thread to air dirty laundry.

Thinking out of the box, as I usually do. Strengths don't have to be obvious; they have resilience and proceed with caution to radical ideas and those are strengths I believe. But like all traits, they all have a weakness. That weakness I believe is disregarding radical ideas without through understanding can be a bad thing too.
