Re: Petition to end the shouting of ROBOT

*raises hand in support of petition*

I should point out though that many times when students yell "ROBOT" or "ROBOT COMING THROUGH" it's because they are going by a pit that has an unusual number of people standing in the front. As a student at the Philly Regional, I don't remember doing it much, but I remember having to do it a few times when I was going by a pit that had 20 people around it. Tapping everyone's shoulder and saying "excuse me" just wasn't gonna cut it.

GP goes both ways. Yelling "ROBOT" is annoying, rude, and unnecessary. But so is having too many people in your pit, and not allowing the team to get by.
