Re: What's your favorite part of build season?
This is like choosing the best song on your favorite album... I love build as a whole.
Highlight moments: - KICKOFF!!!! And the horrible feeling of disappointment when it's not a water game.
 I still remember how during 2013 kickoff in San Jose, half the room was like "WOAAAAHHH" when the game was unveiled.  - That moment where you realize your strategy and robot design and get to it.
- When the first prototype works.
- The first time you test your drivetrain.
- All the laughable moments with your team. From the stupid jokes to the random things sleep depived teammates do.
- Competition. Nothing beats being on the field, adrenaline pumping and all as you're about to start a match. As a coach, I have yet to find a place and time so energized and chaotic yet focused and calm at the same time. The feeling is indescribable.
