Re: Concerning Whistleblowing
Okaaaay...
To get back on topic I have whistleblown in the past. At a regional on Thursday I took a look at all the robots as I'm inclined to do at all regionals. I saw two issues at 20 feet from the robots that I thought were obvious. I went and asked if these robots had been inspected and was told they had. I then asked the inspector to look at something on each robot and showed him a line item in the robot section of the handbook that applied to the obvious problems I saw. One team was using a motor that we hadn't gotten in the kit that year. The other was using too many of a motor.
I didn't have a problem with saying this to anyone because we all get the same rules and parts at the begining of the season. Doing what these teams did was flagrantly violating rules.
