The suspense is killing me

2 new questions were recently posted on the Q&A and awaiting an answer. Im probably not the only one here who is hoping for another "Chute door" response.

Quote:
Q275 Q. Transport Configuration
Quote:
Q264 Q. Are we going to attach bumper to the Robot's base?
I'm loving these witty responses to questions this season so far, don't let us down!

Re: The suspense is killing me

Same here. I keep hoping that the answer to Q264 is something along the lines of "We don't know. Are you?"

Re: The suspense is killing me

Q264 has an even better answer than predicted: useful with an amusing coda - my emphasis

Quote:
A: We're thinking you are asking if bumpers are required this season. There are no rules requiring bumpers be placed on the ROBOT, though teams may use them if they wish. See the Blue Box at the end of Section 4.1 for more information.
If, on the other hand, you are asking us to guess if your particular team is going to be using bumpers, our Magic 8-Ball says "Cannot predict now."

That is just great! I'm really hoping there will be more witty answers to future questions. I have a feeling teams are going to start purposely posting those types of questions now.

I see two things that can happen here.

1. A new Q&A answer poster named Magic 8-Ball.
2. A Q&A session at FIRST Championship with the GDC's Magic 8-ball.

I sincerely hope not. Let's not waste the GDC's time when they've been working so hard to answer questions. It'll get old very fast.
