What is your team doing with their FIRST Choice credits?

How is your team going to allocate its initial allotment of FIRST Choice Credits?

Is there much of a reason to wait? 450 credits is more than enough to get everything game-specific that you need, no?

Nope. The GDC decided that it would be a good idea to have really heavy game pieces to challenge us, so this year we will have to score field goals with solid gold footballs (the height of the goal will be to spec with regular football, of course). These footballs will be worth 600 credits each.

Spent uranium is probably a cheaper practice material. though I doubt there exists enough for 3,000 of them

After a bit of research and math, I'd estimate that there is enough stockpiled depleted uranium to make more than a million solid depleted uranium footballs, and possible more than 10 million. They'd be around 160 lbs each, so design your manipulators accordingly.

Great job Nemo, glad we can always count on you to do the math no one else would think to do. On a side note, where did you get the statistics on stockpiled depleted Uranium. I'm curious how much of it is used in munitions and other military applications.

We've already planned out our points expenditure, and we did it by 10 AM!
