Re: Never Do This, and Other Good Ideas Gone Bad

I agree, it's more the implementation than the idea. Several years before I joined the team, they created a robot that remains infamous to this day. Its name was Scorpio. In 2009, several ideas were thrown out because they had failed on Scorpio. In competition, though, we saw them done well. The implementation was flawed, not the concept.
