On 3481, after analyzing the game we talk about setting realistic goals based on what we know we can actually accomplish. This year we challenged ourselves to be a high goal shooter. After perfecting the shooter we just kept trying to increase the amount of high goals we could score per match. So I guess it is important to specialize in one aspect of the game and work on it until you perfect it, and always try to better your bot.
When's the last time you called up FIRST headquarters just to say thanks? Or saw a volunteer at a regional and said, 'Hey, you're doing a really great job here. Thank you for everything you're doing in your spare time.' - Amanda Morrison [more]
