When the mentors' wives think their husbands are a bit overweight... don't worry, this is just a prototype meant to scare the mentors. Rumor has it that you don't want to get anywhere near the real one.

Test Protocol: Ensure comfort and durability for the robot.
Test 1: Complete. The robot can hold the ball just fine.
Test 2: Not Started. Remove the ball and have a mentor sit in it.

As 4490 reflects on their season, they can't help but think a reversal of fortune in key situations would yield a year that mirrors success.
Such backwards-looking can be powerful when used in moderation.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #515

The students wanted to dedicate their robot to their favorite mentor. They may have gone too far. You be the judge.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #515

OK, I know it was easy for you to stuff that ball into the net. Remember, we have to get the robot to do that, and it has to be under 120 lbs and under 60 inches tall.
