Go to Post When there appears to be something stupid wrong with a game (HPs outscoring robots, unreliable loading, autonomous that accomplishes nothing) I shouldn't complain about it. I should see it as a challenge to exploit! - Chris is me [more]

"Gerry's Secret Area"

Okay...

My favorite "closet" story is when I got to visit Gerry's secret area. It was 2000 and we were looking for old drill motors from previous robots (you know the typical nite before ship something blows and you are like OH CRAP!). Anyways it was my good friend Tom and I, we were Alums of the team @ this point back as "adults" and a bunch of the "shop guys." Our head advisor on the corporate side @ the time Gerry was like "you to come with me" so we followed him out to the back of the shop up on a mezanine(sp?). He then stopped us @ the top of the stairs and swore us to secrecy from the actually kids, and took us into "Gerry's Secret Area." It was a glorious place...about 3 of 4 "kit sized" bins worth of FIRST stuff spaning th years of like 93-2000. That is when I saw the 93 joysticks, and control boxes, for the first time. All kinds of stuff....not to mention the various disassembled chasis', etc. from previous robots Needless to say that the deam disband the following year and those bins of parts are now in Gerry's basement so

That's my story...
