Re: what happens when you give a nonFIRSTER a robot?

This was an '02 bot so it was a bit old and had the original (i think) drill trannys in it. We irritated us was not so much that she broke the tranny (most teams have including us) and drove over the wall, but that she kept driving it when our team member was on the robot. In retrospect I don't know why he didn't just yank the OI's power, but at the time I had no experience with the robots or the OIs, so I didn't question the action. If I had thought about it at the time, I still wouldn't have done it for fear of the robot continuing like someone mentioned (ever unplug an N64 controller?).
