Re: Most Unlikely Places You've Found FRC People
While it wasn't unusual for me to meet FRC people at MIT (or see people wearing team shirts), it was very odd when I saw a kid wearing a sweatshirt from my team in Florida. Mainly because we haven't...

Re: Championship Community Predictions
I fully expect 5842, the rookie team we worked with at South Florida, to fall under the radar and get picked up late to make a stellar alliance. They're built to play solid defense, and can work a...

Re: pic: Shark Attack FRC Team 744
This is correct. By the way, we ended up snipping off the bottom most bands, as they kept coming off track and stalling the motor. It made no difference to the intake (except it stopped smoking),...

Re: 2016 Orlando Regional
Can I ask what happened here, if anybody who was in the process is reading this? It sounds like 5557's bumpers were deemed illegal during their elimination reinspection. Does anyone know if they had...

Re: Mission Mayhem 2015
So glad to see this event back after a very long hiatus. 2 questions,

Re: New England District Events 2016
I've heard it's supposed to be switching from Boston to Worcester to Hartford every year, and then cycle again.
It's interesting that Boston's getting an event at the Agganis again. That'll be...

Re: Current Districts Map. Who is next?
Agreed, we have turned the tide of team losses, have 3 coordinated off season events, and the volunteer base at south florida is more and more a different group than in orlando. Locations are a...

Re: Panther Prowl 2015
So happy to see the off-seasons were able to coordinate, and that there's one coming to South Florida! I'm probably going to be in Norway next semester, so I'll miss them :( But I hope it goes well!
