Re: "Bay Area Robotics Alliance"
Are there other North Bay teams? 814 used to be in Napa, but they seem to have disappeared. 841 and 481 are in the Richmond area. WRRF is great and Cal Games is awesome (October?), but it's...

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast
A search for "logo" didn't turn this up, so... does anyone think the object in lower right of the blue background is a slightly distorted triangle from the FIRST logo?
Just me? Okay...

Re: Wikipedia defies China's censors! :)
A lot of things have actually changed quite a bit since the 60's. Two reasons: the Cultural Revolution failed miserably, and Deng Xiaoping. One really led to the other, and since the 80's there's...

Re: FIRST Scholarships
Furthermore, I'd bet a few donuts that if they're giving you a full tuition scholarship, someone can help work out housing and other late paperwork issue for you at WPI. I'm assuming WPI has the...

Re: PLEASE READ THIS
Be gracious and compromise? One match left alone and the other with defense? Play defense on the other robots only (if they don't mind)? Play defense during part of the match only?

Re: New Rules for 2006
You might want to see R39 from last year, which reads exactly the same. I believe it regards the use of, for example, two exide batteries on the robot rather than the possession of 10 batteries to...

Why do they send out any wheels at all in the KOP? And yet, they still do each...

What's to stop them from doing a Vex-style parallel autonomous and human-controlled matches, or where autonomous scoring is averaged with human-controlled scoring in the same match? The Vex setup...

My team heard another team describe the Championships as "10,000 kids jamming the Georgia Dome for 3 days…more nerds per square foot than a Star Trek convention…and more purposefully employed "
