Re: FIRST Frenzy 2004. Coolest team giveaway?

I didn't really get anything besides standard pins (no special edition stuff for me) but Team 564 gave out freeware at LI. They told me that they didn't actually get to give it out at nationals because of tech problems.

It was called the DSD (Driver Strategy Database) and I don't know if it was the "coolest" giveaway but it definitely gets my vote for most impressive. There's a searchable database with name and contact info for a large number of teams, as well as the main function, which allows you to create animations of your strategy that you can then show to other teams. It's pretty much obsolete now (except for offseason events) because it's specific to this year's game- but if you were lucky enough to get a copy of it at LI, I suggest you take a look at it, it's really impressive and professional.

A woman at LI (I think she was a parent) gave me the 311 pin off her shirt. (This was after I gave her my Team 30 bag after taking all my other pins out of it...now that I think about it, it was a pretty cute little scene, all in all.) Yay for nice people! =)
