Re: pic: 2015, Year of swerves?

I find it strange that people in this thread are not impressed by clean, efficient, well engineered robots. Creativity and producing the best, most capable robot design, although important, isn't always the mark of great engineering. Sometimes it is taking a fairly standard design and making it better than every other implementation. For a real life example, think about cars. Although having many features in a car is nice, what really seperates low end cars from high end cars is build quality.

So with that being said, I don't think a competitive robot can be "boring", because to me the best robots are the ones built to be the most competitive.
