Answer: "Yes, Chute Door."
You list your rookie year as 2015, so I'm actually a hair surprised at your not knowing, unless your rookie
season was 2016--in 2015, there was a field element used in entering totes from the human player station, the "Chute Door". At one point, a team who meant to ask a longer question in Q&A (and, it should be noted, they immediately asked it when they realized their blunder) simply put "Chute Door". The Game Design Committee simply answered, "Yes, Chute Door." (They also answered the real question.)
Viral-ness followed, particularly after Frank put it on the FRC Blog (and shirts were sold). The only thing more viral than the Chute Door response might have been "Cheesecake"...
There might be a couple of threads on CD discussing various aspects of this, but I leave finding them as an exercise for the reader.
