Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Not as much a quote but more of a story:

After we powered up our bot last season at the competition, for some unknown reason after its been sitting idle for about a minute, the code error light turns on (requiring an RC reset to work correctly). So sometimes when we put the bot out on the playing field right before a round and the judges are taking a long time to introduce the teams, we got that annoying code error light and would have to reset it (using the button on our OI), otherwise our autonomous mode would not run. So every round the drivers and I (field coach) would helplessly stand there praying the code error light didn't turn on again before the round officially started.
Several times I sprinted back onto the playing field while the judges introduced the teams (with the judges permission of course) to power down the bot and power it back up and hope that darned light never came back on.
