How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
These days, whenever I see a grey plastic tote, I check out the long edge to see if our robot could pick it up.
What do you look for in grey plastic totes nowadays? |

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
We had a lift hand which featured twenty spring-cushioned 10-32 bolts. I have to check the long and short sides, and occasionally feel the bottoms of the deep stacker tabs to see if our bolts would grab in there.

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
![]() Goodness those totes are WORTHLESS... Haha, look, you stacked all of those TOTES for what? 42 points? Whoopie! Nice job! Too bad you didn't have any CONTAINERS! Really should have invested some time in some CANBURGLERS, but noooo! - The thoughts inside my head whenever I see them. |

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
Today I was walking through the halls at my school and I saw an unusually large amount of recycling containers in one place, and all of the sudden I got the urge to start picking them up and putting them on stacks of totes.
Also, and this is more of an FRC in general thing, but ever since my first year of FRC, I've been seeing FRC team numbers everywhere. Whether I'm checking the clock at 1:48 in the afternoon or my teacher tells our class to turn to page 1114 in our text book, the numbers always seem to haunt me. |

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
We use totes like those from Recycle Rush (just different colour) to hold the kits of parts for the equipment being assembled in the factory. There are also trash containers and recycling containers spread around the factory floor. Of course, there are numerous fork lifts running around at all times. I am constantly wanting to redirect them to build 36 point stacks (sorry, no pool noodles heres) and thinking of mechanisms that can be attached to the forklifts. It's become a sickness...

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
Sometimes on my team, when someone sees an object with a hole on top, vaguely resembling a recycling container, they yell "TEH ROBNOTS!", extend their arms, jam their hands into the hole at supersonic speed, and pull back.
(I know other teams [1678] are faster, but "TEH ROBNOTS" is just too fun to say ) |

Re: How the Recycle Rush game changed my life
On Sunday after championships my team decided to sleep in and take it easy. We did some shopping, and I was very tempted to run around Walmart looking for storage totes, recycling containers, and pool noodles, and making my very own 42-point stacks.
Then I remembered that I'm a mentor and I'm supposed to be setting a good example ![]() |
