Re: Back in my day...

Back in my day
- We had large rotating police lights on our robots
- Bumpers were an obscure rule that no one dreamed of implementing
- We programmed in PBASIC (The emulator was a lot better back than, thanks to rbayer)
- Autonomous mode was brand new, and very unexpected
- Only 4 robots were on the field at a time
- The van door motor was awesome
- The battery counted as part of your weight

This thread made me way to nostalgic. I want to play stack attack again.

Also looking back it's nice to see most of the issues Dr. Joe outlined here have been solved
