Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN

Just wondering about the map - I can't seem to find 3654 on it. Same with 3525 in Waterbury. Is it put down as 1 team/per town max because Middletown, CT hosts at least two. Just might change the...

Re: [FRC Blog] The 2017 FRC Season Teaser and More!

Maybe it's just for me (and maybe I'm forcing this connection), but Res-Q did seem similar in style to Stronghold. Mountains and stones for strongholds go together.

Re: [FRC Blog] The 2017 FRC Season Teaser and More!

As a serious prediction, many of the FIRST games generally follow a similar theme. Cases in point:

2015 - Trash theme (Trash tek, Recycle Rush, Waste wise)
2016 - Medieval theme (Res-Q,...

Re: 2017 - New England District Event Schedule

Seems like the two events we usually frequent (Waterbury and Hartford) are unchanged from last year. If we make it, travelling to DCMPs will definetly be more of a challenge :) I'm excited.

Re: Build Season Schedule Questions?

Our team runs the first 2 weeks like so:
Mon-Thur 3:30-6 unofficial, 6-8:30/9:00 officially
Sat 9-4:30

The last four weeks get a tad bit more intense:
Mon-Fri 3:30-6 unofficial, 6-9:00 official

Re: New guy needs some direction please!...

I'm not sure exactly how, but I feel like directly accessing the screen's color would be more accurate and less error-prone than a color sensor, which could be affected by lighting conditions, etc....

The game will be held under the night sky. One of the challenges will involve a telescope.

Oh man, must have been because I didn't go on CD or read the Q&A before this season. Thanks for the clarification!

Re: Team Member Accountability

Our team has a very lax approach to this. Our general rule is to say when you are coming, and come when you say you are coming. It works well for most of the season, but we ran into a few problems...

Re: Chute Door?

I'ma be brutally honest, I have no idea what this is. Maybe I'm a tad bit too young to remember this? If anyone can, please enlighten me. ::rtm::

Re: Learning JAVA - best resources

A little more expensive, but a very very very (did I mention very?) good resource is the Head First Java Book (https://www.amazon.com/Head-First-Java-Kathy-Sierra/dp/0596009208).

It might be a tad...

Re: Best Event Giveaways

Team 999 3D printed custom battery inserts for every team at Hartford with our team number on it. That was really cool.

Re: Video Review Needs to Happen Now

I don't know if I'd go this far. This would require teams to calculate in their own heads (or calculators) what the new score would be and if it would swing the game. I think this would just waste...

Re: Video Review Needs to Happen Now

The concern about 6 objections every match is unjustified. At TRI, only one objection was made the whole event. I think that teams will understand that asking for silly reviews is a waste of time for...

Re: How are teams mounting drivetrain encoders on WCD?

I'd assume this would mean stretching out the chain before actually putting it on finally, so that it stretches less during actual use.

Re: [FRC Blog] 2017 Einsteins and More

FIRST HQ is in EST, so that seems the logical choice. Also, EST probably has the most amount of teams (with GA, NE, MAR, NC, Ontario, MI, etc. there). Makes it easier on a larger amount of teams....
