That's a personal favorite of mine: The robot was working two hours ago, no code was changed, and now it's stopped: Clearly programming. At the '09 competition our feeding mechanism stopped working at times during the competition, and the coach kept coming back to me to "fix the code". On day three, we found a weld that was spaced 1" farther apart at the top of the robot than it should have been, completely stopping the part from functioning. Funny how that worked out.
