[ZInventor]

our team found out that our robot was a very efficient vann-de-graff generator ( we have super-fuzzy paint rollers spinning against PVC!!!, oh and di i mention, there are two, one at the top, and one at the bottom, with surgical tubin in between...)

i've been shocked many times, and at the PDX regional, several robots would drive across the field, hit the wall, discharge the static and die...

this led to some teams mot doing at all as well as they could have...

also, the feild was set up on top of big rubber mats, on top of an ice rink... (i don't know why they didn't just use the ice!!!

I hope this whole fiasco is figured out before championships!!!!!
