Re: Official FIRST Hint declassification

I somehow doubt that we'll see a placebo as a full-on FRC robot in its own right, as one of the oft-mentioned constraints is that a team should be able to replicate the field with stuff from Home Depot. And you just can't get an IFI RC at Lowe's.

The fact that a shovel show is being held at the High Wire Gallery (link credit: Not2B) makes me wonder about hanging making a return, but perhaps in the form of having to traverse something while hanging. (Teams like 237 and 330, who perfected the art of the monkeybot in 2004, might have the edge here.)

On the other hand, I think I'm going to just go back to finishing off the Pre-Season FF draft, run a couple more caption contests, and relax before the madness.
