Well, no, to a large extent I don't think you can. I wrote about this thread, not about your posts in that other thread. But you are right that it's easier to lose sight of the original question/sentiments the longer a thread is used. [EDIT] I have to eat my words somewhat here. I went back and double-checked. My impression had been strongly colored by what has been written in the other closely-related thread(s). So, to a certain techelpbb *can* call me out.    [/EDIT]

If two to three days is enough time for a well-prepared group to build a successful-on-the-field, fun-to-use robot; how on earth does the current 44 day build season (or one that was a true 44-day build season) keep any team from building two, or three, or 44/3 = 14 robots????
