I see a whole slew of rules changes...
Energy used in First robots may come from the KOP supplied kitty.
KOP parts may not be modified in any way except the supplied kitty may be groomed and must have appropriate flea control.
Kittie spares may be brought to competition but must be corralled in the teams pit area. Spares may be purchased locally but must maintain the same weight and size as the KOP kitty. No kitty claws may contact or damage FIRST carpet or inspection devices.
ASPCA safety advisors will be working the pit area to insure that teams use the KOP kitty as intended and will issue kitty koins to teams who demonstrate purfect kitty practices.
As suggested by a certain Virginia mentor the KOP kitty will now be refered to as KK.
