Re: RI3D this year?

Reading complaints about Ri3D I can hear Joe Walsh singing “I can't complain but sometimes I still do” in the background. It’s surprising that the community doesn’t complain about pictures/threads about drivetrain ideas, how to build bumpers, pneumatics, calculating power using multiple motors or countless other items in White Papers. It only seems to be concerned about sharing ideas on how to obtain and score the game piece(s) somehow as being an unfair competitive advantage or stifling creativity. I can only say “Life's been good to me so far” and personally think Ri3D is a case of “Coopertition®. Founded on the concept and philosophy that teams can and should help and cooperate with each other even as they complete. Rather than taken as a case of “I'm lazy but it takes all my time”.
