Re: Petition to end the shouting of ROBOT
Wisconsin Regional Safety Officials were requiring teams to do this, and it was very obnoxious.

Incident with our team, one of the drivers was politely saying, "Excuse us, we need to get through" while pushing the robot. One of the safety officials was in the way and said, "I am not moving until you loudly shout 'Robot!'". This is clearly unnecessary and is forcing/encouraging students to be obnoxious. It also makes the pit a tense and more stressful place than it already is.
