I find it odd that the OP does not appear to be affiliated with a team and this was his first post but I would have to agree that the transistor is a MUST on the top 10 most important inventions of Pre-1970s if not all time.

Hey Sanddrag,
Sorry I created this account for a class in school and this would be my first assignment. I'm actually Captain of team 1836 The Milkenkights. (Btw anything I post in this thread or on this account is not affiliated with my team). Sorry for not clarifying that before.
Back on topic, really just the transistor??? Surely theres some other technologies to add to the list.

I'd put a mechanical clock on the list, it made "time" possible. Before clocks, society worked differently.

Plumbing--sewer and fresh water--also had a big effect, although it was not a sudden thing, and still doesn't exist in a lot of the world.

Air conditioning....
