Re: Team 2980's Open Source FIRST BOT
My suggestion: Paint it before you go to competition.

Looks matter, especially if you'd like to compete on Saturday afternoon. Between two bots, identical functionality, one painted and the other not, the painted one gets picked.

Yeah, we're all logically-minded engineers here who want to think we're all making the best decision based solely on technical merits, but--no. Looks matter.
