I have had a lot of responses to the T190 test, it's also interesting to see what some people write.

We have found that tests like this do not discourage any of the team members, but to the contrary, it intrigues them more to get involved in both understanding the game and our robot. And the more they realize how particular many of the rules are, they realize how crucial it is to understand the specifics when making decisions about game play and the robot on and off the field.

The thought of taking the test sometimes deters those who just want to show up for driver tryouts but it has yet to happen that someone has taken the test and does not persist and learn the rules until they pass because they want to do well.

I'll work on writing up a comprehensive answer key tonight. If you'd like a copy for your team, PM me and I will send them your way when they are complete.
