When the Vex Robotics Competition decides to repeat history and replay the very first FRC game, the younger siblings of the Digital Goats will be a virtual lock to win.

That's not a Maize Craze robot; it's a beta version of the new corn power cell to be used in the 2016 FRC season.

829 Recycles an old robot to Rush around the field. This would be legal per Q461 and the rules revised in Team Update 2015-03-17, despite any comments to the contrary.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #559

Our team convinced a fellow classmate who was attending one of our practices that Dean Kamen made a "rule" outlawing all people with the name Johnny from any FIRST events and practices, and that he sends inspectors around to see if teams are abiding by this "rule". They then spent the next two hours of our practice in our storage closet hiding from the "inspector". The sad part of all of this is that they actually believed us and started to write a letter to Dean about their feelings before we told them that we were just pulling their leg.

Ok, I'll distract them while you run out the back door with it.

We'll reverse engineer it and soon, we'll discover the secret to Andy's greatness.

Psssst! Hey, buddy!

You wanna buy a tennis ball? I only got 2 left. Try before you buy!

[NPOE]It was kind of eerie and humbling to see some of those very early bots on display at FIRST Place in NH this January.[/NPOE]
