Re: Weight

i think i am going to take this discussion in another direction for a second. in this past year it seemed like it was a huge scandal about adding stuff to the robot during the competition and not getting re-weighted. while part of me would love to see the weight increased (make my hair stay in) part of me would like more of a challenge of decreasing the weight limit to 12o (giving a new challenge for the upcoming year) i think that as long as people still tend to bend the rules at the competition adding up to 5 lbs over weight and still competing i think that the weight limit should remain the same as it is still a great ch allege to some teams.

i personally think we should go back to alot of old rules like only using whats in the kit + 200 from small parts. that would be a challenge!
