I say we call this new concept "football".

Almost as bad as sand in the gearboxes. These are thing things I cry about at night by the way.

I know, hydraulic logic ! Then we just have to sweat high-viscosity fluids in a maze of twisty little passages.

I mean I can see the electrical to be frying a lot next year because, well we all know, water game...

This is the only ethical way to replace motors. If you use, let's say, a hamster in a hamster wheel, that's just wrong. Abusing animals = bad. Animals are adorable.

So this would be like a lot of the "coaching" going on behind the driver stations

How do you get sand in a gearbox?
I don't know about you but we tend to place our random piles of sand outside of the metal shop.

[Al Skierkiewicz]

The same as putting gears in the sandbox I think?

At one district event my team got a metal shaving in ours and we couldn't figure out why nothing was working... Luckily it didn't get fried

[BenDSterling]

We have done that twice now. Now we cover all the electronics, or even remove them, when ever we are cutting metal on our robot.
