Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

As a team was in the pits testing how hard their shooter shot the ball, a kid out his hand in the line of the ball to catch it, conversation went some what like this:

"I'll catch it"
"This shooter will literally break your hands"
"Naw bro it's okay I got it"

The kid shoots the ball.

We had something similar when someone had to stand in front of the shooter with a radar gun.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

I would say the best thing from build season this year was when the team was discussing ideas.
One of the teams programmers confidently got up in front of the whole team to draw up how we were going to make the shooter.
He begins writing down what he's saying above the drawing.
"And then we collect the Bolder..."
This inspired our t-shorts for this year...

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Programming mentor: Why are you sitting on the power junction box? (supplied all the electricity to the pits) It has about 300 amps in it

Me Because I like to be the most powerful guy here.

(our shooter was a horizontal wheeled shooter ex.( 0___0 ) 0's are wheels)
Me: imagine if we sucked someones face into this!
programming mentor: Yeah, once they're in there we can spin one of the wheels forward and the other backwards, snapping their neck...
Me: *laughed so hard*
