Re: What we learned from week 1

I imagine G27 and G30 are topics that will be on the conference call, as well as the frisbee counters (I think by Championships they will have to pause play because there is a good chance all 28 frisbees at the start of the game could easily find their way in and near the goals during auton by then) and other fun things.

For now, I suggest this to teams. There are driver meetings at events. Sometimes there are 2 or more. Bring up both rules and associated crucial Q&As. Have the drive coach keep certain rules on their person at all times in the form of an index card to quote while in the yellow box(something I intended to do last year, didn't and lost a crucial match because I couldn't cite the rule). Make very obvious contact pieces on your robot like brightly colored "bunny ears" or flashing lights denoting contact with the pyramid, which will also help you with lining up the robot. Keep everyone honest, including yourselves.
