Re: PNW Noodle Death Count

I find it ironic how the game "Recycle Rush" can create so much waste.

Re: PNW Noodle Death Count

Ah, I see. I support recycling glass and metal, but from the informal research I've done and the discussions with my cousin who is a former productions manager at Crystal Geyser, the process of recycling plastics can be fairly atrocious to people and the environment. But this is not the point of this thread, so I won't discuss the topic of the ecological harms of plastic in general any further. I'm for biodegradable plastics, though.

This is part of the reason why I am a fan or repurposing plastic waste .

Re: PNW Noodle Death Count

seems pretty high actually. IIRC, at the Indy District, we killed 12 and we had about 80 matches as well (a handful of practice, 68 quals, and elims of course). Or maybe we got lucky. Next week we'll see in Kokomo I guess.

Re: PNW Noodle Death Count

Not just noodles - have NEVER seen TRASH cans so full of recyclables and returnables as we just did at one of our districts! Seriously, the number of pop bottles alone in the trash could've financed build season pizza for a team, easy!

Recycle Rush is a different game, compared to what we FRC competitors have been used to for several years. It is not possible for a team to improve its seed by playing defense. However, it is ironic that in a game with a "green" theme (recycling), littering the opposing alliance's side of the field is a very effective tactic for improving a team's seed.

People did manage to find good use for the murdered pool noodles.

Re: PNW Noodle Death Count

Let us not forget the amount of bots murdered by the noodles . I think they just get in the way. When 144s bot came back we had a few chunks of noodle stuck deep inside our omni wheels

There were less that weren't put back on the truck than 9. Now I didn't do an exact count but 4 full boxes left in the truck and 2 and a partial came back, unless there are some in the front of the truck that doesn't get unloaded after each event.
