I get the what team number one atleasy twice every regional and i avoid answering questions because i am usually in the back of the pit working on the robot.

That doesn't sound very GP. there were many instances where I've told scouts about the intake and they still ask if we can load.
Sometimes they forget, or it's just a habit they got into. You'll have to deal with stupid questions in the "real" world as well, not just at FRC, so you might as well get used to being polite about it.
I remember the most ridiculous one was "how good looking was your robot?"
I wanted to reply "devilishly handsome like me" but the drivers were there and us being friends, I'd know they'd probably say "don't insult the robot like that, it's not that ugly".
