The GDC will fail to specify and it will cause a disaster at the Week 0 event (or whatever we decided to call it) and cause several team's robots to need complete redesign.

Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine

So is it just a coincidence that this video is posted on the same day that Tom Brady's suspension was overturned? I am actually serious when I say this points to footballs being used as game pieces not deflatable duck toys. Also 50 years of NFL? If footballs will be used as game pieces this will be the year.

However it is the 50th Superbowl, which I'm guessing was what he was referencing.

And due to not knowing about the difference in airspeed velocities, I suspect a number of teams will be in [the Chasm Of] despair. I also predict that the Blue alliance will do quite well.

I was thinking the EXACT SAME THING! Maybe they'll have to pass out earplugs I would also imagine it would make a dog go CrAzY!

Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine

I doubt it'll be the game piece. This year's piece has to be triangular, since the last two were square and round.
