Re: Nothing is impossible!

Re: Denying an Alliance Selection

As said above, it's largely GP. If your robot fails, you can deny to prevent yourself from hampering the alliance. That's the only reason I've ever though of, although I'm sure there are more.

Re: 2008 Florida Regional

What happened to our man was tragic, and it was largely due to a lack of communication among team members. However, let's not let a lack of time get in the way of proper safety. We now require that...

Re: pic: Fully Automatic Tee Shirt Cannon - Pic 2

Re: [Poll] Does your launcher use "armed" indicators?

We're launching, and while I will say that our launcher is dangerous to stand near, I don't think it needs an armed light. It's quite obvious when it's fully armed, and we did so much engineering on...
