YMTC: Super Duper Hook!
You Make The Call (YMTC) is a series of situations where you can be the ref and make the call.
Bluateam makes the most awesome hook ever seen by man and integrates it into their Bluabot during the 6 week build period. At the beginning of week 5, Bluateam begins duplicating all of the pieces on their robot so they can use them for their practice 'bot AND for spares. 5 minutes before ship time, Bluateam completes all of the Bluabot duplicate pieces, ships their robot, and celebrates with pizza & coke. A week after ship, Bluateam comes together to put their practice 'bot together. The final step of assembly is completed by welding the four pieces of the hook and putting it on their practice 'bot. Bluateam's practices go very well and it looks like Bluabot will be unstoppable. After winning the Ippississim Regional, by far the most competitive regional in the world, Bluabot repacks each piece of their disassembled practice 'bot, including their now-welded Super Duper Hook, in their suitcases and heads for Atlanta. On Saturday during the semifinals of Newton, their Super Duper Hook crumbles from a once-in-a-lifetime incident. The Bluabot team yells in harmony, "Get the spare hook, get the spare hook!"
Based on the 2004 Robot Rules, YOU MAKE THE CALL!
