Sure. No problem.
One of my favorite Woody-isms is that the robot is only the campfire we gather around. I 100% believe that building a robot is *not* what Dean, Woody, Dave, etc.ask (but don't insist) FRC teams to focus on year-round.
Including the word "friendly", the winking emoticon, and the YMMV acronym in my other message were an attempt to remind the reader about that in a collegial way, while still acknowledging that FRC participants are free to do whatever makes themselves happy, so long as they pay their fees and follow the rules.
No matter what they end up calling it (team, club, bee, co-op, whatever), I hope the OP's group finds an organizational style, that looks outward as successfully as it looks inward. Celebrations are more fun when lots of friends share them with you.
