I was at a local competition over the weekend, when this idea popped into my head. What is the stupidest thing a member has ever done on your team? Meaning what was on of the things that a team member did that made you shake your head and groan "How could you do that?"

For instance while I was at the local competition this weekend, one of my team memebers, who sole job was to check the battery, put a dead battery on the robot TWICE!!! The first time he put on our bad battery that didn't even work (why he packed this battery when it didn't work is beyond me.) The second time he put on a working battery but, normally to give the robot enough energy to run the battery needs 12V even 11V is pushing...this battery had 9.9V!! This was during the second match of the quarterfinals so we lost because of our battery. Then it gets worse, he was waiting in the pit with a fully charged battery, waiting to put it on after our match!!!
